"Being a former Operations Manager for Verizon Wireless, I am used to requesting quotes for numerous projects and dealing with many contractors but never for my own property. Now retired, I needed a contractor to remove (8) Leyland Cypress trees from my property to include removing the stumps. I had never dealt with tree removals so I did not know what to expect. After meeting with Thomas Potts, the owner of Stump Destroyers, I felt totally comfortable after completing a walkthrough on my property and him providing a detailed explanation as to how they would handle the project. I decided to write up an RFQ (request for quote) to include the cost to complete the project. Thomas responded in a timely manner and since the cost was within my expectations, I decided to hire Stump Destroyers to complete the work. I am happy to say that I made an excellent choice. Not only is Thomas a fine young man, but every member of the Stump Destroyers team were very professional, whenever I asked them any questions, they took the time and made me feel comfortable with or how they were going to handle the situation. Removing (8) 55 Leland Cypress trees in a confined area is not an easy task but they did it safely and with no damage to my home or my neighbor's property. I will have to repair some landscaping issues but that was expected from the start. I hope I never have to do this again, but if I do, I will be using Stump Destroyers to do the job!"

"After calling several tree removal/stump grinding businesses--one of them 3x, but they never returned any of my calls--Joseph, Elite Stump Grinding, called me. In this case, I guess, the 4th time was the charm. I explained the situation with an approximately 8.5" tree stump that needed to be removed. Based on my description, there were 2 options: 1) he could come and inspect the situation and then quote a price; or 2) he could give me a quote over the phone. There was no point in having him come 2x, so Joseph gave us a quote over the phone. The day we scheduled was the hottest day, with the humidex factor reaching 107 F. I was worried and called Joseph to note that I would be ok with changing to a different, cooler day. He assured me that he would be OK. In addition, I discovered that when I was removing dirt from around the stump, the root area was much more substantial than I had realized. As a result when he saw the situation, Joseph noted that it would take a little longer than he had expected. However, he did not advise us that he would have to charge more as a result of the additional work. He set up a protective barrier around the stump area, and got straight to work. Afterwards, he cleaned up and raked to provide a flat, even area. My husband and I are both very impressed with Joseph's superb work ethic, professionalism, and friendliness, and thankful that he went the extra mile. In fact, we gave him more than the quote to indicate our appreciation of these qualities, as well as the quality of the work he did. In addition, I am promoting Elite Stump Grinding LLC on my social media. Everyone should know about Joseph's integrity and impeccable work ethic. Thanks, Joseph!"

"Got a quote on Monday and she told me they could remove it Tuesday. The large tree was down and the stump was ground below ground level Tuesday afternoon just as promised. They ground the whole tree in their chipper and now I have a large pile of free mulch. Everyone was friendly and hard working. I was amazed how they were able to have everything done in three hours as hot as it was. They will be who I call first."

"Dallas stump grinding removed two stumps for me. One smaller easier one and another very large one on an incline within a few feet of a gas line. Dallas stump grinding was very careful and knowledgeable about how to remove the stump with these challenges. Once complete, they cleaned up the site and it looks better than ever."

"They returned my phone call almost immediately and we scheduled an appointment. The owner showed up on time and I was impressed with his professional appearance and cleanliness of his truck and equipment. He took time to ask me questions about the stump I wanted removed and my plans for the ground afterwards. He gave me a very reasonable quote and removed the stump that day. He was as careful as possible with his equipment on my lawn and he did not leave a huge mess. I would definitely recommend them!"

"Very courteous and professional . Arrived on time and completed work as promised. Very reasonable rates compared to other tree services. Was very happy and surprised he gave a military discount on the cost of this project which you hardly see anyone doing. Really helped us financially due to on going covid 19 restrictions. Like to mention our neighbor was best neighbor in working with us in getting the trees removed that fell on his land during the high winds event in our area. God bless him and his wife they are the best neighbors anyone could ask for."

FAQs for tree stump removal projects in Piedmont, SC

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.
