"Timberjak, Sherman, TX, removed a 60-70 ft. tall TX Loblolly pine tree (base circumfrence aprx. 9 ft.) between two (2) houses. They arrived at 9 am, as they originally stated, and by Noon, had the tree topped out. They completed removal of the tree by 5 pm, quitting time. The majority of the tree limbs were shredded, and the remainder loaded in a trailer for disposal. Their motto is "We don't come to play, we come to work", is exactly what the crew of seven (7) do. No play, all work. The Timberjak crew had to work around several old plants with their equipment, one being an extremely large bucket lift. The owners were on-site 100% of the time working along with the rest of the crew. We've known Steven Hagan, for several years, "from another life", and his desire for perfection. But since this was business, our knowledge of Steven was only a part of our decision to hire Timberjak. Steven also came in with the lowest bid of three (3) bidders. Would we hire Timberjak, again, for tree removal? We certainly would."

"Carlos and his team cleaned up some of our tree limbs so we could plant and grow grass in our yard. We did not want to sacrifice the beauty of our shade trees but we needed a bit more sunlight to grow grass. They did a great job cleaning up and trimming the trees, we also decided to let them lay the grass and we are pleased with the result."

"All he does is stump grinding, so he is good at it. We had two particularly challenging stumps. One close to the house and another by a retaining wall. He took extra care to not damage anything and he watched out for irrigation pipes. We would have him here again, and we recommend him to others."

FAQs for tree stump removal projects in Melissa, TX

Always transport chainsaws with the engine off and chain brake engaged. Use the protective bar cover provided by the rental company to prevent accidental contact with the cutting chain. Position the chainsaw securely in your vehicle to prevent movement during transit, ideally in a truck bed or trunk rather than the passenger compartment. 

For gas models, ensure the fuel cap is tight and position the saw to minimize potential leakage. Keep the chainsaw away from passengers and other items that could be damaged.

Proper safety equipment is essential when operating any chainsaw. At minimum, you should have eye protection (safety glasses or a face shield), hearing protection (earplugs or earmuffs), cut-resistant gloves, chainsaw chaps or pants, and sturdy boots with good traction. 

Many rental facilities offer basic safety kits alongside chainsaw rentals. If you'll be using chainsaws regularly, investing in quality personal safety gear is advisable. Never operate a chainsaw without appropriate protective equipment, regardless of the job size.

While rental companies will rent chainsaws to beginners, inexperience significantly increases safety risks. If you've never used a chainsaw before, request a demonstration from the rental staff and thoroughly review the operator's manual before starting. Begin with smaller, more manageable cutting tasks to build comfort with the tool's operation. 

For significant cutting jobs, consider either taking a chainsaw safety course first or hiring professionals instead. The learning curve for safe chainsaw operation is steep, and caution is paramount.

If mechanical problems develop during your rental, immediately cease operation and contact the rental company. Most reputable rental businesses will either provide a replacement chainsaw or repair the equipment if the breakdown resulted from normal use rather than misuse. Document the issue with photographs when possible and maintain records of when you reported the problem. 

Having your rental agreement readily available when you call will expedite the resolution process. The rental company should adjust your rental period to account for any downtime.
