Always make sure to call before you dig. Before any digging, planting, or stump removal works, we must ensure that all underground utility lines are marked. Before any tree service work, you should call OUPS (811) before beginning any work. They will mark your property with paint or flags to identify the presence of any underground lines.
After we've provided an estimate and agreed to the work, you usually don't need to be home or present for the tree service work to be completed. The crew will have an order explaining the scope of work and what is expected.
Stump grinding and stump removal are both commonly used tree maintenance techniques, but many people don’t know the difference between them. Stump grinding involves using a special machine to grind down the top of a stump to a certain depth. This technique can be beneficial for landscaping purposes, as it leaves behind fine wood chips that can easily be spread across the lawn and help to disguise the area where the original stump was located. Stump removal, on the other hand, is usually more expensive but often results in a much better outcome. This method uses an excavator to pull out the entire stump from its root system before being disposed of properly. Both approaches have their advantages and disadvantages depending on your particular needs and budget. Consult with your local tree care professional to discuss which option would be best for you.
