"I needed 2 trees removed and 1 trimmed back, I spoke to Aly & Maria a few times in a 4 day period they gave me their prices and I gave them my budget I had for the job to be completed.
They had worked with me and I gave them my word I would not look elsewhere, they came out the day before garbage day in about 2 1/2 hrs in the late afternoon they were done and I opted to have them leave trimmings in front of house for the garbage people to remove, they came the following day while I was at work and removed the stumps.
Very professional service and friendly staff is what makes a company, I manage one so I understand that and I am very impressed and satisfied that I chose Alys and his company is recommended highly!
Thanks Aly!

"My old 40 ft+ silver maple had been butchered several times, in part causing the tree's decline. The shape was unbalanced and the tree looked raggedy. Kevin Johnson's crew removed all the dead branches and bracelet tips and reshaped the tree into a natural canopy shape. The tree looks fantastic. My deodar cedar, a soft wood tree looked spindly and ragged with overly long branches with heavy end weights which were a hazard in stormy weather. The crew removed the heavy ends and by reshaping they turned the ragged tree into a stunning specimen tree. Kevin and the crew understood exactly what I was looking for in the Magnolia grandiflora, the foundation tree in the back garden. They cleaned out the water sprouts and dead wood and trimmed some of the outer branch tips without giving the tree an unnatural lollypop shape. The pruning cuts were done correctly, above the bud, but not too close to interfere with its future growth. All in all, I couldn't be happier. Thank you, Kevin Johnson and crew. You are true professionals. I will call you back when I need more tree work done. Monica, UCCE Master Gardener, Alameda County."

"They were fast and efficient. They did leave the chips from the stump grinding which I thought they would remove. It cost me 300 more dollars to have them removed. The contract said remove all green waste. So I feel like the cleanup and removal costs weren't disclosed ahead of time."

"Rodrigo was a pleasure to work with. Super friendly. Very fast response. Fair prices. Did a fantastic job at trimming my trees, planting a new tree, and clearing out some trees I needed removed. As an added bonus, they cleaned up completely so that you could not even tell all of that work was done. I am referring them to my friends and will certainly hire them again."

"Great service! A representative came to look at the tree and gave me a verbal estimate. I had already received higher estimates from two other companies, so I agreed on the spot. Their crew came on time, removed the tree, ground the stump, didn't damage anything and left the site in neat condition. I paid the estimated amount by check. Overall, a great experience."

"Too many arborists aren't capable of pruning trees the right way because of limited understanding of tree growth and land conditions. CA Tree Solutions has this - both the understanding and the capabilities, all within a reasonable price range. Jose and his team worked on our overgrown 1-acre for a full week and transformed the property, including pruning, tree removal, and coastal oak tree planting. CA Tree Solutions is really the best!"

"Carlos phoned me within a day of my request for an estimate. He came to my house the next morning to give me an estimate and was prepared to cut the tree down, then and there. He and his team did a fantastic job! I had asked for the trunk to be cut into sections so that I might use them around my yard...they did it. All the other parts of the tree were put out onto the street for collection. The bits and pieces that were previously covering the lack of fence were all put back into place, better than before. Wow, it's so nice to have the work done so professionally, by a friendly team, and in a very timely manner! The price was fair and averaged out to be less than an estimate made by a company with a Big Deal.

FAQs for tree stump removal projects in Milpitas, CA

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.
