"We called JP of American Stumpbusters to get a quote. In talking with him on the phone it was clear this guy knew what he was talking about. He asked for a video which I sent him to give us a quote. We accepted his quote and set a date. He was on time and I walked him through our stumps. He had the knowledge and expertise to get rid of my stumps beyond what I expected. Where I thought he would just scrape off a root, he removed the whole root. At the end, none of my sprinkler system was damage and it looked as if there were never any trees/stumps in my front yard. I highly recommend Him."

"Felipe and the rest of his crew were great! Came over within a few days of the initial consultation, got rid of the stumps we wanted taken care of and pruned the tree very quickly! Their rate was very fair for the work that was done, and I would hire again."

"I hired Chad to remove a stump that I had after the tree company removed a dead tree in my front plant bed. I wasn't sure what would happen with the rocks that were there, but Chad was able to make it look like there was never a stump there."

"Contracted M & H to remove a 20 foot tree in our front lawn, grind the stump and feeder roots, as well trim three evergreen trees in our backyard. The price for this project was good, however, the clean up was not good the reason for the four stars. The sawdust and shavings from the stump and root removal was left in our shrubs and rose bushes as well as on our front porch and outdoor furniture. This issue could have been avoided if some prep was done prior to the grinding by using tarp to cover the surrounding area."

"I hired Richard to remove three trees and prune a fourth tree. His communication was excellent and he completed the work in one day at a very reasonable price. I would recommend him to anyone needing tree removal or pruning services. He is very professional."

Customers say: Quick response

"I will echo what the other reviewers have written. Very competent, hardworking crew. Completely removed 2 trees - 1 huge leaning pine - and left fences, irrigation, and other landscaping untouched. Ground up the stump in the lawn. Shaped and trimmed three other trees away from contact with powerlines. Amazing to watch the climbers work! Immaculate clean-up afterward. We would hire them again without hesitation!"

FAQs for tree stump removal projects in Denver, CO

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.
