"I hired him back in June. He was always very kind and professional and his landscaping service was fine. I also needed repairs so I gave him the go ahead (although he took on the repairs before we discussed pricing) to have him replace various valves, at a total cost exceeding $1,000. I then asked him to see if he could replace sprinklers as I had areas that were not green in my grass. He suggested hiring his father in law. The job done by his father in law was terrible. The pipes were not dug deep enough and had to be redone. Then this September, I discovered they were not connected properly and caused over $1,000 in water usage, above the seasonal consumption. That job was $600 and its cost me twice that in repairs and water leaks. Jose is good at landscaping but not at repairs. He charges double what others charge and in my case, made the situation way worse "

Professional Arborist specializing in tree removal, trimming, pruning, manicuring and fertilization of trees and bushes. Licensed and insured.

"Amazing job! Edward knows his stuff. Walked the property, took time to explain the entire job and scheduled right there to have is crew come and complete the work that week. They took down and stump ground two huge mesquite trees that started leaning and cracking due to storm damage (we were worried they might fall onto our house from a monsoon), trimmed up a medium sized mesquite tree and our queen palm. Exceptional job - great investment (well worth the money), timely, professional, super friendly, did a ton of work in a 5 hour period and the yard was spotless when they left. Would highly recommend AZ Desert Tree Care to anyone needing tree work."

FAQs for tree stump removal projects in Tempe, AZ

The time it takes to grind a stump depends on its size and the type of wood. Small, softwood stumps take only 15 minutes to remove, while large, hardwood stumps can take several hours. Before the project begins, ask your stump grinding pro for an estimate so you can plan accordingly.

There are several alternative methods to stump removal, including winching it with mechanical equipment, cutting it with a chainsaw, grubbing out the stump and roots, initiating a burn with the required permits, activating natural rotting processes, and applying chemical treatments to expedite decay. Each method offers its own advantages and safety requirements, so it is important to select the option that best suits your project and complies with local regulations.

The cost of tree removal typically doesn't include stump grinding. Removing a stump requires different equipment and skills than cutting down a tree. If you want both services, your contractor will often charge extra for grinding the stump. However, bundling tree removal and stump grinding can sometimes save you money, so it's worth asking about package deals.

Pest issues in a tree stump do not slow down the grinding process. The decay accelerated by pests can make grinding more efficient. However, if an infestation is present, it is important to arrange for pest control afterward to safeguard the health of your garden. Ensuring thorough pest management after stone removal supports long-term yard stability and prevents further damage.
