"Job was done right, quickly and unbelievably on a Sunday before the heat wave. The reason I called was due to not being able to turn my mother’s air on. It was covered in poison ivy. John came in early to get the job done before the heat came in and mom is thrilled that her air is working……."

"Justin scheduled my tree removal twice, and failed to show up twice. Now, I understand things can interfere with this type of service - weather, or other jobs demanding more time than expected. What was disappointing was the lack of communication from Justin. He failed to call or text when he missed the appointments. So, I reached out to him - The first time he said he forgot to put my job in his appointment calendar, the second time he said said he had "a few issues come up" and the weather wasn't cooperating. Really disappointing service and lack of professionalism."

"On the day of the estimate, Scott walked around the trees with me and got down and actually inspected the holes in the trees to check the tree's integrity. He is the first guy from three different tree services that actually touched the tree and put his hand in the holes to check for rot. Scott's crew were very professional and did an excellent job. Eight 100ft tall trees had holes and were beginning to rot. Three of them would have hit our house if they fell. The owner was at our house on Tuesday for the estimate; we confirmed that we would hire them Friday of the same week. And were here four days later to take the trees down. To watch the trees fall with such accuracy was amazing, not to mention the crew was safe. We would 100% hire All-Pro again and will recommend them. The service was well worth the cost."

FAQs for tree stump removal projects in University, NY

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.
