"Excellent Tree Removal Service by LA Arbor Care In March 2023, our plumbers told us that our sewer pipe ran right under our large Deodar multi trunk pine tree, and that the treeâ  s massive roots had detrimentally damaged the sewer pipe leaving us with no other option other than to remove the tree and grind the stump so they could dig a hole under it to repair the pipe. We received four estimates from different tree removal companies. Miguel Lopez at LA Arbor Care did not provide the least expensive estimate, but we felt that his considerable experience, certifications, and great reviews made his firm our best option. We are so pleased that we selected LA Arbor Care to do this work. They did the work exactly as promised, removing the tree safely and efficiently. We were impressed by their work ethic and quality, and they were very careful not to damage the power and data lines that were coming through the tree branches. They were conscientious about leaving the entire work site impeccably clean â  for example, the tree was adjacent to our swimming pool, and unprompted, they cleaned all the leaves and branches that had fallen into the pool during their process of taking down the tree. Miguel and his staff were friendly and professional. I would highly recommend them to anyone who needs tree removal services."

"The Roper team showed on time. Pleasant to talk with. They came and removed two trees and tree stumps and cleaned up the work area before leaving. I believe the price was a fair amount. Yes, I would refer my friends to Roper Tree Surgeon."

"⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ I found this company online and was immediately impressed with the service provided by the owner, Chris. He responded promptly with a more than reasonable estimate for cleaning up my yard, which was in dire need of attention due to the recent record-breaking winds and rains in Simi Valley. My yard was cluttered with debris, broken tree limbs, and dead trees accumulated over the past six years. Chris and his crew worked diligently and completed the entire cleanup in just one day! Chris has a firefighter background expertise 🪓 They worked hard and didn't leave until I was completely satisfied with the results. I highly recommend Chris's business for any yard cleanup and tree trimming, stump removal needs and would definitely hire them again in the future! Thank you Chris and your crew keep up the good work ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️"

"They did a wonderful job at removing the big liquid amber tree from our small backyard in a timely and professional manner. They also ground out the large stump and cleaned up the scattered branches. The cost was very reasonable."

"Great! Luis and crew were very helpful and spent all the necessary time making sure my stumps were removed from my backyard. I had 8-10 stumps all through the yard, and Luis took care of them all. Very helpful and would definitely call again for any other tree servicing needs!"

"I have learned over the years if you want trees properly trimmed for looks and growth, hire a professional arborist. This is exactly what Kerry's Tree Service offers the customer. Mike Gallagher, arborist, came out, viewed my tree situation, then told me his recommendations and gave me an estimate within within 48 hours. after i talked to several other companies, I hired Kerry's with confidence the job would be done best if I used their services. I was correct. It took a crew of 5 men plus Mike Gallagher 4 hours to finish the job. They were professional all the way including final cleanup of my property at the end. All 3 trees look terrific and I look forward to seeing them after they fill out next Spring."

"Not the lowest estimate, nor the highest, but Jose inspired confidence at our meeting. He arrived when promised, spent two days here with his crew, ( amazing acrobats in trees with chainsaws), Was conscientious and careful, no complaints from my neighbors whose property lines were under the trees being trimmed. I already plan on calling him back to do more work. Highly recommend."

FAQs for tree stump removal projects in Pacoima, 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.
