"Hometown tree experts were very professional and they cleaned up and did not leave any debris in the yard. My front yard looks great. They called me before the date we had agreed to let me know they were coming and they were on time. Hometown Tree Experts is a very good company to do business with. They remove the tree and grind up the stump and backfilled the hole with topsoil, leveled the ground and seeded."

"We live on a farm surrounded down a dead-end dirt road, and we have many very old trees. Some needed to come down, and some needed trimming. Gordon (whose father started the business decades ago) is incredibly knowledgeable about the care and maintenance of trees, and he and his team were the most professional service I have had the pleasure of working with. His pricing was the best I have seen and very very fair. This started with a large tree limb on our roof, and Gordon's team ended up removing multiple trees (3-4), and pruning about 8 more (they used ropes and we had several trimmers 20 or more feet in the foliage). When I say pruning - I mean some of these trees are very old and massive - with very large limbs that needed to come down. They also removed several very large (20 feet wide) bushes. One huge bush had a root structure that was massive, but Gordon had a stump grinder as large as a truck wheel and BOOM - it's was all gone in a jiffy. Numerous farmers passing by stopped by to share their amazement at how efficiently and how quickly Gordon's team worked, with one saying "by lunchtime your property looked like a hurricane came through, and by dinner there wasn't a single branch or leaf anywhere!" Gordon's team were all super polite, and except for a short lunch break, worked straight from 09:30 until about 5PM. I was amazed at how much got done in one day, and I will definitely have Gordon and his team back. I shared Gordon's number with multiple interested neighbors. One older "seen everything" neighbor farmer saw how much was done and said "so how much did you pay for all of that"? (with a little smile; think he was preparing to shake his head and chuckle the way folks do when you pay a LOT).. when I told him the total bill, his eyes opened and he immediately asked for Gordon's number. Wow... I impressed an old farmer... ! Hire Gordon; He will exceed your expectations."

"We had a huge, 200+ foot, tree that had died and needed removal. This tree was alongside our church as well as next to a neighbor's garage. They had all the needed equipment to cut the tree safely, using a crane to remove the large limbs first and reducing the tree down to the stump. (Stump removal scheduled for a future date.) They were friendly and were considerate towards the concerns of the neighbor. Hopefully, our other large trees won't need to be removed, but I will call these folks up again to do that work, if needed."

"Very well. Baker tree gave me a competitive quote and addressed the problem intelligently. My large maple tree was trimmed to keep it balanced and erect and removed large branches that were the main problem. The crew arrived on time in the morning and finished around noon. the crew also trimmed three other trees and removed a very large photinia bush (about 30 feet high) and removed the stump from the photinia bush."

"J&D did exactly what we were hoping. We needed 6 trees taken care of. Between pruning, cutting to a stump, removing, trimming, all was done. And they cleaned up completely while they were working and when they were done. I will absolutely go to these guys again and I will recommend them to others."

"Through the whole estimating and scheduling process, I had to take all the initiative. But at least he was responsive, which the other contractors weren't. Behnke's used to say, "Dig a $20 hole for a $10 plant," wider rather than deeper. He didn't really do that, but he did loosen the soil. While loosening roots of a nearby tree, they cut our FIOS cable, so we had no internet for a day. I blame both myself and him for not anticipating that possibility. In the end, it looked great, and the price was right."

FAQs for tree stump removal projects in Wheaton, MD

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.
