"We called a day after tree fell, and Mitch Drake, the owner, was able to come out and give us a quote that day, on Sunday. Hurricane Dorian was due sometime the following week, so he said he would try for Monday or Tuesday. He called on Monday and said he would be coming 8:30-9:00 a.m. on Tuesday morning. He showed up on time, and they had everything done within 2-3 hours! The job involved our neighbor's yard, since the tree fell over the fence into their yard. They had everything done and cleaned up within that time! Have used this service previously for another tree removal and trimming. Very professional and accommodating and feel their prices are very reasonable."

"Clayton and his team did a wonderful job removing a tree and pruning limbs from two large trees. The pruning was skillful- not the “hack jobs” I have seen around town. The guys were polite, professional and cleared the debris so well that they left my yard in beautiful condition."

"Darrel directed his crew who cleaned out an accumulation of 10 years’ worth of undergrowth in my back yard, removed one big tree and two smaller ones, and ground 5 stumps. Things look much better and I can start fresh with my back yard! I recommend him for going above and beyond at a fair price."

"These guys are great. They work hard, do a good job, clean up like they'd never been here. I've used them several times and wouldn't think of letting anybody else work on our trees.

"Excellent service, quality and pricing! They came on time as promised and everyone was very friendly and worked diligently until work was completed. They even grinded a couple extra stumps for me. Once the work was completed they made sure the yard was clean and hauled all of the debris off with them. I had quite a few things damaged from the hurricane and they are one of the very few companies that showed up and did what they said they would. I will recommend them to everyone."

"Nate and Tessa are hands down the nicest and reasonable landscapers there are! They did an absolutely amazing job on my front and side yards by pulling everything that was planted and then adding all new plants/shrubs for a whole new look. They were patient with me and my questions and recommended what type of plants/trees/shrubs would work best and look incredible. I will be hiring them again for maintenance and any other projects that they can tackle!"

FAQs for tree stump removal projects in Saint Augustine, FL

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.
