"We had hired the Reyes Tree Service before for a Pine Tree removal, and now we hired them to remove our Palm and Walnut tree. They did a great job at a great price. Plus, they finished so fast. They were done in less than 2 hours. We were so shocked at the speed these guys did it. They were also very professional as there was a faucet under the tree. Was scared it might break with the falling tree parts. Nope, no worries. They placed logs around it so the logs would take the hit instead. Then, they grinded the roots. There were no stumps to worry about. Will truly hire them again."

"Mike and his crew are true professionals. I would hire again without any hesitation. They removed 50' of tall hedges and 5 evergreen trees. They completed the removal and cleanup in under 2.5 hours. They were very careful not to damage other vegetation or personal property of our house and our neighbors. And dug out 2 trees by hand because they wanted to make sure that no electrical or water lines were damaged. I wish all the pros we hire were as skilled and professional as this crew."

FAQs for tree stump removal projects in Van Nuys, CA

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.
