"Have had Above & Beyond do LARGE tree removal / stump grinding jobs 3 times in last two yrs. Courtney in the office and all crew members are great to work with. Worked for an electric utility for 46 yrs. These crews are as experienced and trained as well as any crews used in storm / tree removal for power restoration that I ever worked around. Their speed is amazing while maintaining excellent safety conditions at all times. An analogy would be a concert where everyone works together and solo when required. A&B has the best equipment â using a 70 ft. bucket truck for our last 80+ ft. tree removal. The crew are great to talk to and seek your input. They clean up and when they leave, the debris leaves too. No depressions in the yard where outriggers were. Happy to find such an excellent business !!!"

"Miguel responded the same day I called and came out to see the tree. The tree was hit by lightning and was split down the middle of the main stump. The tree was going to crash down on my neighbor’s roof. They started that night at 6 pm to beat the storm coming. They took down the limbs that were almost on my neighbor’s roof that night. They had all the proper equipment and safely did the job finishing the next day right before the storm 🙏"

"He started job with 2 days per week with 1 helper or alone. Had 4 different helpers, 3 had little to no experience. We agreed on a parts and labor agreement with more work possible after 2 bedrms and garage finished. My wife listened to and seen the agreement. The detailed price quote was photographed and agreed on verbily and with me signing a check for 2750 and him signing and cashing in his name. The full price for the agreed on work was 4200 I have before and after photos of only 25% of job done when he quit before Thansgiving. He was very disrespectful and rude and even threated assault the day he quit. We are frightened of his manner, tone, and words. We only want our money back covering work not done. We want this to go away and not have anyone go thru what we did. We are offering to have him bay us back 1350 out of the 2750 he was already paid of the 4200 total current project quote."

Michiana Timber & Tree believes in the future of your property. Whether it is tree service in your yard or timber harvesting on your farm. Our family and locally owned company uses sustainable practices, so you can have a healthier trees in your yard, or make more profit over time, if you’re harvesting. We sell directly to lumber mills and our marketing brings in the maximum value on each tree. We are fully licensed, insured and bonded for timber management services in Shipshewana, IN and the surrounding 75 miles. We have had an A+ rating from the Better Business Bureau since 2004. The owner is present at every job, so you can be assured your property and trees receive the best care possible. In 2001 we started cutting firewood to sell. In September of 2004 Slabach Logging was founded. We did selective timber harvesting for the bigger timber companies in our area, and also a few private timber owners who were local. In 2008 when the economy went into recession we started advertising to the timber owners. We found we could make more money for private timber owners by selling their timber on " sealed bid log sales. In 2011 we acquired a small band sawmill to help utilize the low end logs that were tough to sell on the log sales and also do custom milling. In 2014 we started with the tree service side of it to accommodate our existing customers with tree service needs. It just keeps growing now it's close to 75% of our business. In 2016 we sold our facility and relocated to Shipshewana, IN. At this time we're out sourcing all our mill work. Hopefully by the end of 2024 we can have our mill up and going again. In 2017 we changed our name to Michiana Timber Management. I grew up Amish in Middlebury, IN, and always liked to cut and split firewood for our personal use when a boy. I have found if there is something you like to do, and you're willing to learn and willing to keep at it you can succeed.

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.
