Here at Rea Excavating Services, I pride myself on my professionalism, as well as my ability to complete every job to the homeowner's total satisfaction. I never leave a job unfinished, or a homeowner not 100% satisfied with my level of service. I handle excavating and landscaping and concrete work in Wylie - Call today!
"Hired him to grind some relatively small brush stumps and then roto-till the area to break-up the other roots and make the soil ready to plant replacement foliage. He quoted $600 to $800 and said it would take a good portion of a day. He did grind the stumps but got **finished** quicker than I expected, said that the roto-tilling was really hard, and that he was charging $900. I should have called him out on this, but he had brought his young (approx. 10 or 11 year old) son with him on the job; so I did not want to embarrass him. Now, after planting some new scrubs in the area he worked, I am realizing that the roto-tilling being **really hard** actually meant **it was really hard, so I just did not do it**. There are roots on the surface of the area completely intact, and a few inches under the surface some roots 1.5 to 2 inches in diameter, as well as rocks and large terra-cotta pots pieces that I am having to dig out by hand. I even had to buy a special shovel that could cut through roots to be able to plant anything. Bottom line - did not do all the work he contracted to do and charged more than what he originally quoted to actually do everything including the work he clearly did not do."

"It's a scam!! We had Mr. White come and tree one of our large oak tree's that was looking sick. I refer to him as Mr. White as he has no PhD in anything other than slick promises. He arrived and within 1 minute said awe yes, it's bugs and guaranteed he had the remedy, and could save the tree for a low, low price of $1200.00. within 1/2 hour they had drilled a hole and pours something in plugged the hole and were gone with the assurance the tree would be healthy in the spring at the latest. Well spring rolled around, and the tree was looking even worse. This time I was able to locate [*** Link removed ***] which is the directory for all LICENSED Arborists!! I had one come out and look at the tree, he diagnosed it immediately as oak wilt and said he had never seen anyone try to stop oak wilt by the method Mr. white had used. We now have removed the tree and had the licensed accredited arborist tree the other red oak that is susceptible to oak wilt also. Believe me the treatment the actual arborist was completely different than that of Mr. White. FINAL NOTE: If you have a sick tree refer to the website I attached above and hire a real arborist, which was a 1/16 of the price to actual know how and if your tree can be saved. PS: I asked Mr. White what his doctorate was in, he responded it was a nickname he had been given years before, that in itself should be warning enough!!"

Yes, grinding a stump is worthwhile if you plan to use the area for planting, recreation, or building. Removing the stump clears space for new landscaping or construction projects. Additionally, as the stump decomposes, it can rob the soil of nitrogen, affecting the growth of other plants. Stumps are also a tripping hazard, making removal a wise choice.
The time it takes to grind a stump depends on its size, density, and the grinder's performance. A small, soft stump can be ground in 15 minutes, while a large, dense stump may require up to eight hours for complete removal. Factors like the stump's structure and your grinding technique affect how quickly you can remove it.
Grinding a stump is often the best solution for clearing an area for construction or planting. It removes the visible portion of the stump, but the roots remain underground. If you need to remove the roots for long-term stability or design plans, you'll need to hire a professional for full stump and root removal. This ensures your site is completely cleared for future projects.
Leaving a tree stump in your yard can cause several problems. It can become a breeding ground for pests and diseases that might harm nearby trees and structures. Plus, the decaying stump can interfere with your landscaping plans, making mowing difficult and promoting unwanted new growth that can disrupt soil stability. Removing the stump eliminates these risks and improves your yard's safety and appearance.
To effectively kill a stump, you need to interrupt its nutrient supply and speed up decay. Drill holes into the stump and fill them with a concentrated herbicide like glyphosate, rock salt, or Epsom salt. This method ensures the substance penetrates deeply. Alternatively, cover the stump with a dark, heavy-duty tarp to deprive it of sunlight, which accelerates the process. Remember to follow safety guidelines when using these methods.
