I needed a stumpremoved from my flower bed. Barry (the owner) was professional & courteous from start to finish. He called me to set up a same day appointment. He arrived promptly, gave me a decent estimate, & completed the job within an hour. He left my yard neat & clean. Highly recommend!!

Barry came out on my schedule and made short work of the remnants of a bradford pear tree; transforming the spot into the eventual centerpiece where granny's roses will soon be.
He is very professional and even showed me where I might have issues with another tree in the future.
All-around solid individual!

Barry came out the same day I contacted him. Ground a stump out that was in my front flowerbed in a tight spot. Worked with precision. Provided quality work for a very fair price. I highly recommend this company and would definitely use them. again.

FAQs
What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
I look at a variety of factors in determining price.
The type of tree, overall grind area including root system, height of existing stump and what the space will be used for after the job is completed. Some species of tree require a deeper grind and, or a more thorough grind of the root system to assure no regrowth or sprig growth in the yard. Sometimes a shallower grind is ideal as well based on various factors.
What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
I provide free, no obligation estimates. I'll normally schedule a time to meet with the customer to assess the total job, discuss options and provide an estimate. Most of my customers prefer that the job be done sooner rather than later, so I will normally have a machine with me and do the job at that time should we agree on a price.
How did you get started doing this type of work?
As a retired insurance broker I stumbled into the tree business, providing estimates for a large, local tree company owned by a close personal friend.
Over time I became more familiar with the industry in general as well as the stump grinding and removal side.
