Stump Grinding and Removal
“ I cannot thank you enough for the outstanding job you did in removing my huge Arizona Ash tree and for protecting both the Live Oak and Red Oak in my yard. The work your firm did was professional in every respect – thorough knowledge as arborists and leaders, highly skilled technicians to protect, cut and remove the trees, machines that were incredible at chipping and stump removal, and lastly the integrity and honesty of all the people in your firm to provide great value for my dollar. I want to thank you for all your wisdom and guidance and especially for going out of your way to look at a Lacey Oak at a local nursery to assure that I was buying a good tree. You have both my profound respect and all of my future business. Thank you.
