"Josh and his team did an excellent job with our property! We had a very large tree fall on our garage during a storm. We contacted Josh and he came out same day to give us a quote. His team then responded promptly to get the scheduled job done and worked long hours to get it done quickly! He told us he would remove everything that had fallen from that tree and he was not kidding! They even picked up all the little branches & twigs out of the garage rubble! Truly amazing, highly recommend! "

"I needed five very large trees to be removed from my backyard. The guys worked very hard for 2 days and used some small equipment to haul the huge pieces up to their truck. It was a very tight squeeze getting it through my gates. Just minimal damage was done to my plants and lawn, but Eddie planted grass seed and covered it with straw, so hopefully it will grow back soon. He’s even coming back to replace some plants as well. Everything was cleaned up to my satisfaction, and I’m pretty picky. I would most definitely recommend Esquivel’s Tree Service!!!"

Tree stump removals FAQs

Yes, grinding a stump is worthwhile if you plan to use the area for planting, recreation, or building. Removing the stump clears space for new landscaping or construction projects. Additionally, as the stump decomposes, it can rob the soil of nitrogen, affecting the growth of other plants. Stumps are also a tripping hazard, making removal a wise choice.

The time it takes to grind a stump depends on its size, density, and the grinder's performance. A small, soft stump can be ground in 15 minutes, while a large, dense stump may require up to eight hours for complete removal. Factors like the stump's structure and your grinding technique affect how quickly you can remove it.

Grinding a stump is often the best solution for clearing an area for construction or planting. It removes the visible portion of the stump, but the roots remain underground. If you need to remove the roots for long-term stability or design plans, you'll need to hire a professional for full stump and root removal. This ensures your site is completely cleared for future projects.

Leaving a tree stump in your yard can cause several problems. It can become a breeding ground for pests and diseases that might harm nearby trees and structures. Plus, the decaying stump can interfere with your landscaping plans, making mowing difficult and promoting unwanted new growth that can disrupt soil stability. Removing the stump eliminates these risks and improves your yard's safety and appearance.

To effectively kill a stump, you need to interrupt its nutrient supply and speed up decay. Drill holes into the stump and fill them with a concentrated herbicide like glyphosate, rock salt, or Epsom salt. This method ensures the substance penetrates deeply. Alternatively, cover the stump with a dark, heavy-duty tarp to deprive it of sunlight, which accelerates the process. Remember to follow safety guidelines when using these methods.
