"Skill, experience, professionalism, and a generosity of spirit We began working with Mike King and Jon Westerlund in 2017, soon after my husband Troy and I bought our house. An arborist identified several trees that threatened to fall, two on the house and three others across the neighbor’s fence. Ben and Rick, with two others helping to haul out the cut branches, packed an extraordinary amount of work into one day, taking down those hazardous trees, pruning up several others to improve both views and light, and chipping all branches. In spring 2018, we hired Kingwest again, this time for only a couple of hours, to grind a big old stump and make short work of chipping the piles and piles of branches that we had spent all winter hauling out of our acre of woods. That summer tragedy struck our household: Troy was hit by a car while out running and paralyzed below the shoulders. Mike and Jon came through with surpassing kindness and generosity, quickly clearing trees where a wheelchair ramp would need to go. Because of adaptations to make our home accessible and the need to avoid any risk of a fallen tree blocking the road for emergency vehicles, we have had several occasions to have tree work done since Troy has been home. In the photo, Ben is in taking down a Douglas fir near the road that our arborist identified as hazardous. In the wake of Troy’s injury, Mike and Jon have treated us the way they treat their crew, like family. Now we would never consider using anyone else."

"They started a project on a Thursday and cut down a couple of trees leaving the stumps to be removed when they came back Friday or Monday. They did not show back up until the following Thursday. They completed the work and left before contacting us back for payment at all. Super hard workers when I did see them at it, but attendance is spotty. For the price, happy overall - will use them again for non-urgent work."

"Excellent service. Answered emails and phone calls right away. Patrick and his crew showed up on time and did an excellent job taking down this tree with no damage to my dock. Good clean up afterwards. Very pleasant and professional. Would definitely hire again."

"Keone came out the other day to give us a free estimate. He was late but explained the unavoidable circumstances. He was professional and listened to my concerns about the stump to be removed. His original plan was to grind the stump, but that was not able to be done due to the underground utilities being right underneath the stump. He came up with a second plan and quickly removed the stump, filled the hole with dirt, and cleaned up the area. Now you can hardly tell that a stump was there in the first place, and the slight mound may settle as the dirt gets further compressed."

"The tree we needed removed proved to be super stubborn, deep roots. The guys worked long and hard to dig her up, probably longer than they expected. They fills the hole and left a clean area."

"My giant cherry tree fell over at 5pm and I called Brian for emergency tree removal. The next morning, he had a crew out to chop down and chip the tree. He then came out with the stump grinder and took care of the rest. It was all done by 1:00pm!! I cannot recommend Sound Stump more highly. I was in a situation where the rest of the tree could have fallen and done serious damage to property. Brian saved the day; the arborists were incredibly kind, conscientious, and helpful, which I especially appreciated in an emergency. This is an exemplary company. Thank you, Brian!"

FAQs for tree stump removal projects in Poulsbo, WA

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.
