"This crew is respectful and professional. They stay in contact and arrive on time. They took down my giant birch tree in a matter of hours. My one suggestion to them would be to consider wearing more eye and ear protection. I would hire them again."

"Wow, I cannot express enough how impressed I am with the exceptional service provided by Mike and his team! As a newcomer to the community, I faced some challenges with my HOA approval process to remove a tree. However, Mike went above and beyond to help me navigate the process with ease. He was incredibly patient and understanding, making sure that I had everything I needed to have the issue resolved. The estimate process was a breeze, and Mike promised to handle everything from start to finish, including the final step of cleaning up. True to his word, the tree removal was completed quickly and efficiently, leaving my yard looking pristine. I was also blown away by Mike's extensive knowledge and expertise in the field. When I asked him about the chainsaw he used and how to maintain it, he took the time to educate me on the key factors to keep it performing at its best. He even gave me some additional guidance on trimming smaller trees and removing rooftop mosses, which was incredibly helpful. Overall, I am beyond grateful for Mike's outstanding work and his unwavering patience and kindness throughout the entire process.

FAQs for tree stump removal projects in Yelm, WA

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.
