PRO-STUMP & TREE (Services)

STUMP REMOVAL (GRINDING)

We remove stumps of any size. We also handle complex removals where stumps may have grown through chain-link fences or those surrounded by concrete. We use newer equipment and both the RG37T and the RG55TR are track grinders which are easy on your customers lawns. We also arrive with plenty of polycarbonate grass mats to protect your customer's lawn and we clean up thoroughly after each job.

Tree companies are beginning to realize that there is a high "fully-loaded cost" to doing Stumps themselves. Some companies have sold their grinder and have entrusted us to perform 100% of their stump removals. They realize they can still charge the customer the prevailing rate and make a similar margin as they did previously without all the headache of managing people and equipment. After consideration of the Capital Cost to purchase/own a grinder, the maintenance time/cost, the personnel to operate/maintain, the trucks needed to tow a tow-behind or trailer to haul, the costs can be quite significant. Since the majority of what we do is stump removal, we are very lean and highly efficient at managing our overhead specific to stump grinding.

TREE REMOVAL

We specialize in removing the more simple, low-risk, trees which do not require a climber nor bucket/spider lifts and can safely be base cut. If you receive a request to remove a small tree and don't think it's worth the time and expense of sending a crew, send us. Remember, you keep the customer, we work for you.

STORM DAMAGE TREE REMOVAL

We can handle downed trees by arriving with our 26ft trailer already loaded with all the equipment needed for the job. We show up onsite with our Rayco Stump Grinder, Stihl Saws, Toro TX1000 Mini Skid Steer and all the attachments necessary. We also arrive with a dump truck ready to remove all the tree debris. If you are looking to lean up your operations and don't desire to deal with such jobs, give us a call. Additionally, we can also help to supplement your crew if time is of the essence and you'd like to have multiple mini's going to get the job done.

TREE PRUNING

To keep your customer's trees healthy and thriving, they need occasional trimming or pruning. Dead limbs, on an otherwise healthy tree, invites pests and insects that will certainly consider invading the healthy parts of the tree while heading to/from the dead limbs. One dead limb often leads to many others. Many customers don't realize that pruning a tree is not a just a matter of lopping off a limb at any angle and leaving the cambium exposed. If needed, we can properly coat the exposed portion to reduce the potential of uninvited pests from gaining access to this vital layer and cause irreparable damage to the tree. NOTE: The cambium cell layer is the growing part of the trunk. It annually produces new bark and new wood in response to hormones that pass down through the phloem with food from the leaves. Let us help your customers by safely pruning limbs with our ground based extension saws.

Frequently Asked Questions

Please contact us if you cannot find an answer to your question.

What information is needed to provide an estimate?

Although we are happy to provide our new partners with estimates on what a job will cost, over time it will become quite easy for our partners to know about what we charge. Many partners have come to trust us enough where just ask us what the cost was after the job was done and it is always within the range of what they anticipated. We support this by sending a text with the onsite time accompanied by before and after photos.

Do you offer Referral Credits?

Yes we do!

We enjoy providing referral credits for referring customers to us. Although we prefer to work primarily as a sub contractor to our partners, there may be occasions where you do not plan to provide any services nor show up with your own crew. Typically this may be for a customer that calls for a tree that has already fallen or a stump they want removed. In these cases, our partners tend to quote the work and get the customer commitment. We arrive to perform the work and receive the payment directly from the customer. For these jobs, we have a sliding scale to provide you with credits (towards future services we perform for you) if you refer a customer to us. Often times, this is a nice way to make money rather than turning away business you are not interested in.

How do we get the lowest cost for Stump Removal

Although you may have a customer with a small tree, it may meet our minimum charge to come out. On the other hand, if you are doing a large number of removals for your customer, have us come out one time to knock out all of the stumps at once for the lowest average cost. Although the cost for us to get onsite cannot be avoided, the more stumps we can do while we are there, the lower your overall cost will average. Often times, we can knock out a half dozen 24"-36" stumps in less than an hour and keep the cost to around $300 or so, just for example.

Are you insured?

This is a very important question. Make sure you protect your house, property and loved one's by ensuring anyone performing these services has insurance coverage. It is sad to say that with the significant cost of coverage, some service companies may not be fully covered.

We have all the necessary general liability insurance so do not feel bashful to ask. We keep our proof of insurance laminated and attached to the equipment for you to review before we start any work.

Do we use Polycarbonate mats to protect the grass?

The answer is yes. Recent rains often create a soft ground. You should not allow any service company to drive on your customer's lawn with heavy equipment without first using ground protection plates if the ground is soft. Even if the ground is hard and it has been weeks since the last rain, certain equipment can still tear up your lawn when turning or pivoting. We have invested in the industry's best protection that you can see one example of in the photo on the main page under "Attention to Detail." Although most of our equipment is only between 1 to 2 tons (similar to a car), these mats are rated for equipment up to 150,000 lbs so you can trust we take every precaution to ensure we protect your customer's lawn on en-route to the stumps & trees.

Can our machines get our customer's back yard if they have a fence?

The answer is almost always yes. If they have a gate with the typical minimum standard opening of 36", you are in great shape. The special equipment we use is large, but narrow and specifically built with the need to navigate through a small gate to gain access.
