He showed up in afternoon after one of his workers bailed. I appreciated that he dropped what he was doing to complete the job as I had already had a poor experience from another provider. We have noticed some paint chipping since he came out but nothing we can’t fix ourselves.

Prompt and professional. Two man job was very efficient. I had not seen the hot water circular brush machine before that really gets up the grind.

Not well. Bobby sent his helper as he was out of town. The glass lamp covers in the master bath have gray pain all over them, he placed his paint brush down on my new vanity and didn't clean it up, he stepped in the black paint on my stairway and walked it on my hard wood floor in the living...

Chip arrived on time, in fact a bit earlier than promised, diagnosed problem, installed additional breaker, and tested to make sure it was properly installed and the problem is resolved.

They came out the next day after I called them to do the work. I wanted all the wood chips. So they worked with me for that and deposited them in an area so that I can use them. I was happy that they could do that for me.

Dale, did the job on the day he said he would, and did a very good job. I wasn't there when he did the work, but it looks like he didn't just haul away the brush - I think he raked the yard where the brush had been because it wasn't just that the brush was gone - There was no trace of it having...

Brush Chipping questions, answered by experts

This depends on how many leaves there are. Mowing over dry and crisp leaves with a bagging attachment saves most homeowners a lot of time. If you have a smaller lawn and few leaves to mulch, you can put the leaves into a stand-alone mulcher resembling a wood chipper and collect the mulch from a hopper. This prevents having to do multiple passes with a mower.

Dormant seasons like fall and winter are the best times to dig up plants, including holly bushes. Plants aren’t growing during these seasons, so the removal process goes a lot quicker. Consider hiring a landscaping team to handle holly bush removal during the cold-weather months for off-season pricing deals, too.

Some states have bans on disposing of yard waste in plastic bags in landfills. Yard waste takes up space in landfills and releases methane gas when disposed of improperly. It's best to repurpose it naturally to benefit your garden and the environment.

If you don’t remove a bush properly, it’ll come back each year. Removing the root system entirely is the only way to ensure the plant doesn’t have a chance to grow back. You can also use natural weed killers or you can choose to suppress the area with landscaping fabric. Additionally, consider planting alternative, non-invasive vegetation to deter the return of thorn bushes.

If you want to remove a bush that’s located on top of utility lines, you’ll need to call your local utility company to determine the best course of action. If you can’t dig out your stump its roots, cutting a bush off at ground level might be the best you can do. Adding a planter over top of the cut branch or planting something else around the stump can cover the area while the stump decomposes.
