In business since 1982, tree felling and property management have become a Liberto family tradition. As founder, Bob's hard work with the tree service steadily grew the business from Clarence to service all of WNY. Part of a family of 8 sons, each brother has been involved in the family business at some point throughout their career. Continuing the tradition, Paul proudly purchased the business from Bob in 2014. He understands that the best way to grow a referral-based business is by exceeding customer expectations. As a fully insured company with over 30 years of experience in the field, specialized equipment and tree felling expertise, our team will work with you to create a plan for your property based on your vision and our experience. Together, we shall determine the best course of action for each tree on your property based on their overall condition and health, typical growing patterns, and placement in relation to any significant structures, access points, and/or landscape design. As a company that has earned an A Rating on Angie's List, we strive to maintain excellent customer service, competitive pricing and our assurance that your property will be in "pride of ownership" condition, due to the fact that each employee has a vested interest in the finished product. To expand our capabilities, we consistently reinvest in our business. Our latest purchase is a "Spider Lift" which fits into a 39 inch opening and allows us to reach over 75 feet.

Full tree service -Family owned and operated business.

"We needed 8 pine trees taken down that were all over 60ft tall. They are also boxed in by our house, our garage, the church next door, and power lines out front. The first company we called made a huge to do about this and how hard it would be to take down. I then called Lake shore and Joe came out and gave me a quote that was far cheaper and he did not seem concerned at all about the job. A week or so later they came out and took them all down and hauled it way. They left my yard cleaner then it was to start. We are very happy with the service and price and will be calling them again for any other tree needs."

Tree stump removals FAQs

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.
