"I put in a request to Angi that I needed my large maple tree looked at to see if it needed being cut down because I had been fighting carpenter ants all spring. I was given a list of contractors who would do a quote and Jonathon from CleanScape Solutions contacted me right away and drove from Ames to Des Moines to give me a quote. I thought it was a little high but needed it cut down. He said they could come the next day which was Sunday, August 18. He asked for cash and I didn t want to do cash but I told him I had Zelle. His sister uses Zelle so he asked if I could send her $200 to see if it would go through which it did. So then they came on Sunday but not at the time they said. I had to leave and got back around 3 pm and they had the tree pretty much cut down. He said he had to rent a chipper to grind the stump down and they were closed on Sundays so he said they would be back the next day which they did and worked several hours. After several hours he said they were done but they left a big pile of chopped pieces of wood and he said that it would settle and be okay. He then had me make a Zelle payment to his sister for $2,800 and left. I had a contractor out the next day to do some work for me and he was not happy with the way they left my yard he got one of his men to work on clearing all the debris because he was afraid there would be carpenter ants in that pile and it needed to be removed. It took them an hour to clean up the mess I got charged $350 to have it hauled away and that was when they found part of the stump and roots still there. I contacted Jonathon three times about it and my contractor called him several times and no answer. I just want him to finish the job of getting the stump out of my yard because I can t plant another tree there for years until it decays. The contractor s guy tried to work at it but gave up. Anyway, I am out $350 for what should have been done by Jonathon s company. I do not feel I should have to pay him more for finishing the job because I have already spent $3,350. He did not have me sign anything. He just texted the quote to me and I agreed by text to have the work done. Then he added 200 to the $2,800 quote for hauling more wood than they anticipated. The thing that bothered me when I saw the tree chunks lying on the ground I didn t see any damage to the trunk of the tree by carpenter ants so I don t even know if it was necessary to have cut it down and voice my concern to him that it looked like it was a good sturdy tree. He said that there were signs of holes in the upper branches that looked like the ants were working their way from the top down. That could be but I had wondered later if I should have had an arborist come out first and maybe would have been able to save it. Jonathon never mentioned that. He just seemed eager to get the business."

"These guys couldn't possibly have done better. When I couldn't get other arborists to even return my messages, Bojan called immediately upon being notifed by HomeAdvisor. He came over the same day to look at the job and took care of it less than a week later. Bojan knows so much about trees. Not just about trimming and removal, but about growth, and seasons to trim (or not), and how to keep trees healthy. Fantastic crew (they even RAN around picking up branches). All were very polite, courteous, and efficient. I already have more work lined up for them. Don't let 'em get away."

A chainsaw is the best tool to cut down a tree, but you may also use a handsaw or ax. You may also want to use a lopper or pole saw to remove limbs before cutting down the tree. Wear chainsaw chaps and protective gear, including eyewear and earplugs if you use a chainsaw. Again, if you’re unsure about how to use this tool, this project may be one to skip.
Your local government is usually in charge of pruning trees on public property, and the power company is responsible for trees near power lines (even if they’re on your property). Whether or not they top these trees depends on their approach to pruning. You won’t be able to do much to control this, but you can contact them to find out more about their pruning process.
It is possible to cut down a tree on your property yourself, but it is generally not recommended unless specific conditions are met. You should only consider this project if the tree is small (e.g., under 4-5 inches in diameter and short enough that you don't need a ladder to reach the branches), and you are experienced in handling a chainsaw. The tree must also be located far from any power lines, fences, homes, or other structures. Even for small trees, the work can be dangerous, and it's always advisable to have a spotter to ensure the tree falls correctly and no branches fall on you.
For any tree that is large, requires a ladder to access, or is near electrical lines or structures, you should always hire a professional. Attempting to remove a large tree yourself is extremely dangerous, poses a risk of serious injury, and could result in significant damage to your property.
Before any tree removal, it's also important to check your local and state regulations to ensure the tree is not historic or otherwise protected by your city.
On grafted trees, tree suckers will grow from the root stock, not the branches grafted onto it. Therefore, the leaves and characteristics of the suckers aren’t the same as the tree because they are different varieties. Root stock has more hardiness, strength, or drought tolerance than its grafted limbs, so if the suckers are from fruit or flowers, it might be different than the main part of your tree.
Stump grinding consists of removing the visible part of the stump, but the roots remain intact. Depending on the tree and root system, the roots may still grow after stump grinding. If you are concerned about root growth and damage, you may want to consider having a stump removed completely.
