"They came on time, explained what was to be done (I had met with their arborist prior to this -- so it was confirmation of the excavation, removal and planting), they worked very hard, took care to protect my lawn, cleaned everything up on my property and around the house -- all in record time. By 2:30 pm, I had five large trees that gave me the privacy and beauty I had been dreaming of in my backyard. The next day I put in plantings and it looks like everything has been there for years. It was one of the few projects around my house that turned out better than I even imagined. We had uses Friendly Tree for trimming and removal of trees -- now that I know they plant trees as well, they will be my go to resource for all my tree needs."

"I highly recommend Arborist, Juan Concha. He is professional , responsive and has great customer service. Juan gave us a good price to remove a very large tree from my yard. He and his crew did a great job taking down the tree, digging up the stump and removing all debris from the yard in a timely manner. I plan to use his services again in the near future."

"They removed the dead tree, ground the stump down to what looked to be about two feet below the surface, and cleaned up very well; side walks, front walk and the grassy area around the removed tree. I could not have wished for more."

"LA Tree Expert did an amazing job removing 2 trees from my backyard. A team of 8 came in and completely cut both trees down within 45 minutes. In addition, they left my yard cleaner than they found it! This company is very professional, quick and they love what they do, perfect teamwork! Also, I did get 2 other quotes, they were 1/2 the cost of 1 and 1/4 of the other quote, how's that for being competitive! I would highly recommend this company!"

"After looking at multiple tree service companies, I finally decided to use L.A. tree service. I had a large tree in my backyard that was too close to the house, a sunroom, and the electric wires. Considering all the obstacles, cutting that tree, and bringing the branches down was a logistical challenge. I decided to go with L.A. Tree Service because they were highly recommended by my neighbor John and because they also had the best price. That was the best decision that I made. The moment that I contacted Jose from L.A. Tree Service he promptly came by the house for an estimate. Jose, as well as the rest of his crew, was very friendly and professional. We scheduled the job, and they arrived on-time and ready to do the work. Everything went flawless. They brought down every branch with the outmost precision. No damage to my property or the electrical wires and everything was clean by the time they finished. I enthusiastically recommend this company."

"We needed 4 very large trees on our property removed. Julio was extremely accommodating, as we were late getting back to our house for the estimate meeting. He was very knowledgeable, and was very detailed in his estimate. The pricing was also extremely competitive. We only ended up having two of the trees dropped, but the work was impeccable. Julio and his team were punctual, extremely well prepared and very professional. Both trees, stumps and all of the wood were removed in one day, and the cleanup was excellent. We are extremely satisfied with the work and will almost definitely contract them again in the future."

"The guys got here and set up very quickly. They covered over the lawn with plywood and were super careful with our garden, even when moving the huge crane into place. They took down a 20 foot tree in just over an hour. They cleaned up and aside from the stump you would never know they had been here. Great job, I highly recommend Amazing Tree. - Don T."

FAQs for tree stump removal projects in New-York, NY

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.
