"Brandon the owner was a pleasure to work with. I had him trim 3 large oak trees and remove 5 or 6 smaller trees. He also did the stump grinding. It was all done in a morning. They cleaned up everything, and you couldn't even tell they had been here by 1 PM."

"Michael immediately responded to my inquiry to have a stump removed . He gave an extremely fair quote and he returned, as agreed upon, the following week to complete the job. After removing the stump, he and his crew cleaned up the area in a manner very satisfactorily to me. I can't say enough how very satisfied I was with his work. Best home improvement decision I have ever made."

"We hired the company to just clear some underbrush and remove saplings. They came out and recommended we consider removing trees as well and gave us an incredibly affordable quote. The trees were mostly dead and posed a risk to our house and our neighborsâ houses but other estimates were way out of our financial reach. They worked until they got the whole yard cleared, left absolutely no mess behind and even removed the stumps (not grind them down but remove the whole thing). The greatest thing is they did the whole job for the same price two other companies quoted for just the underbrush and saplings, but their quote included removing 8 additional trees and stumps, trimming back branches that were hanging over our house and shed, and cutting down and removing two arborvitae. The trees were mostly pine trees that were nearly 100 ft tall! I cannot say enough good things about this company and their patience as we kept asking for more things to be done."

"As I remember, the tree companies I worked with before fed wood into a chipper. This outfit hauled all the wood away with an excavator that dug up my lawn. They raked the dirt back in and seeded it, but I donâ t know if grass will grow there again. The owner was a good guy, but he said the guys who were working for him were new and didnâ t work the way he liked. It was an extra crew he had just hired."

FAQs for tree stump removal projects in Troy, NY

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.
