"After consulting with several companies about our backyard drainage, we made the right choice with Pender's. They did a great job making sure we found the best solution to keep the rain water draining away from our home. Communication was excellent which is hard to find. And once the rain halted long enough for them to begin, they stayed on the job to get it done as quickly as possible. They were upfront about pricing so we were prepared and able to make decisions. Overall not a single complaint... thank you!!!"

At Jon's Tree Service, we make your safety our top priority. Throughout our experience, we have heard of or seen far too many injuries from falling branches. These types of incidents can easily be prevented with frequent pruning and trimming. You can rest assured that our professional staff is highly-trained and skilled in the field of tree trimming, pruning, and fertilization. It takes a true expert to know how to properly care for trees. We can determine the services you need based on what type of tree you have and the specific seasons or year-round treatment it needs.

Excavating questions, answered by experts

Maintain open communication and address issues as they arise, ensuring contract terms cover potential delays.

We recommend removing the stump, and grinding is a popular way to do it. You can also dig out small stumps or stumps that have fully decayed instead of grinding them. However, don’t try using acids or fire for killing a tree stump, which is a fire hazard and illegal in many areas.

Leaving the stump alone invites eventual problems, including attracting termites, mold, and fungi.

Skunk digging looks like a series of small, cone-shaped holes on a lawn or around the perimeter of a home, porch, deck, or shed. The holes that skunks dig when searching for grubs tend to be no more than four inches in diameter and may be up to four inches deep.

A walk-behind trencher can cut through roots as long as they’re not too thick, making a project much easier than digging with a shovel and other hand tools. Assess your terrain and the number of trees in the surrounding area to determine if a walk-behind trencher will ease the job. Digging a trench by hand is much more time-consuming and labor-intensive. 

To locate an underground downspout, you should start by identifying where the above ground gutter drains. Look for an entry point, such as a pipe or elbow leading into the ground. Follow the surface path for signs like depressions, landscaping disruptions, or wet areas after rain. You can use a metal detector or plumber’s snake to trace the pipe underground. For deeper pipes, a professional locator tool or camera inspection may be necessary. Visual markers or utility maps can also guide the search.
