Looking for expert tree service in Asheville? Look no further than Newcomb Tree Service. Our team of professionals is dedicated to providing top-notch tree care and removal services. Contact us today for all your tree service needs.

"I have used Newcomb Tree Service several times in the past and have been pleased with their work. When I used them in 2017 and 2018 they did great work and gave a fair and reasonable price. I called them in March of 2022 for an estimate to take down several large pine trees and a few other small trees. The gentleman that came to my house was pleasant, but the estimate was ridiculously high. The estimate was twice what I paid them back in 2018 and that was for taking down half the amount of trees. I had another tree service company come out to give a quote and it was for half the price as Newcomb. Needless to say I went with the other company. Newcomb did great work for me years ago and I believe they would have done good work this time around, but their pricing seems to have changed. If you get an estimate from Newcomb, just make sure you are getting a few other comparison estimates."

FAQs for tree stump removal projects in Waynesville, NC

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.
