"We had a large tree stump that we needed to remove. Initially, we considered renting a stump grinder but decided to hire Jon from Ecotree instead. This turned out to be a great decision. Jon accommodated our schedule and fit us in conveniently. The stump grinding machine he used was far superior to anything we could have rented. He completed the job in about an hour, and it was amazing to watch him work. The price was very reasonable, especially when compared to the time, cost, and effort we would have spent on a rental."

"I had a tree tip because of high winds and needed a company to take it down. Oakes responded within a day to my need. Because they charged me a reasonable price and were extremely professional in completing the removal, I decided to have them take down some other trees, but primarily prune and thin out dead branches, etc. They quoted me a price that was very fair and when they came to do the job they were prompt and had a full crew to do the job. Alex, the foreman, was extremely helpful in advising me of what was going on and suggested several helpful pointers. The whole crew worked tirelessly to complete the job. They thinned out the trees, and pruned out a great deal of dead material. The result is stunning. I am happy I opted to use them and would highly recommend Oakes Tree Service to others. Thanks Alex and the crew, as well as Michelle, in the office, for coordinating the services."

"They sent a text and said on the way, then at the end of the day said they were not coming. This happened two weeks in a row and no one from the local office in Rochester called to explain what happened and when they would get it done. i just want the last treatment completed and don't understand why the would not get here first since I was skipped twice. Customer service is out of town, can't contact the local office via phone. It is very frustrating and no way to treat a customer."

Customers say: Terrific value

"The owner Chris was very quick to come out and quote the job. I asked for a contract be written up and Chris told me he would bring one when he came back to start the job. Initially Chris and his crew worked extremely hard and did an excellent job. Because of this I made the mistake of giving Chris some (cash) money up front to help him out, feeling that he was trustworthy since his crew was so diligent and worked long hours while on the job. After a few times at my house - and his stump grinder supposedly breaking - Chris asked if I could give him more money up front because he had the opportunity to buy a used stump grinder for $2,500. At the time my family was going through 2 very serious health crises and I made the mistake of never getting the written contract, and giving him money before he had completed the job. A few days after giving him the money for the stump grinder, Chris showed up, packed up all his equipment and left without finishing the job. I've since been unable to get in touch with him either by phone (2 different numbers) or by email. I still have a few trees that need to be cut down, brush ground up, and all the stumps he contracted for to be ground down. A few of the trees that he cut down were left with their trunks very high and unsightly. Unfortunately I will eventually be hiring someone new to finish the job. Save yourself a lot of trouble and find someone else. Trustworthy people do not take advantage of others when they know they are in a vulnerable state."

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.
