My company has been in business for thirteen years. I am fully insured and have workman's comp. I offer free estimates, and charge by the inch or the hour depending upon the size of the job. I only offer Stump Removal services and do not offer tree removal services.

"Chris and his helper came out to grind the stump of a 6 foot wide maple stump. We are having concrete patio poured over the spot of the stump. He went down about a food and ground out all the stump and all of the runners. They were done in a couple of hours even after grading the spot. No damage to our lawn where he drove the grinder. Very pleased with his work. Price was a lot cheaper than I expected. We will use them again."

"We contracted with Basile Landscaping & Lawncare, LLC (Basile) in August 2017 for work that was completed in November 2017. Work included a fire pit patio, consisting of patio pavers, rock stairs, and two small patio walls (approx. 30” tall at tallest point). Also included in the work was a small hot tub concrete pad, a small flagstone walkway, and irrigation repairs related to work performed. Total cost $22,830.00. Within a year of install, the patio walls, which were made out of natural stone and dry set, began caving in due to pressure from surrounding soil compaction. While we were able to reset the stones initially, the problem has gotten worse and now requires repair. We reached out to Basile in Oct. 2023 to get an estimate on repair costs with the hope that they would stand behind the workmanship. While we were not expecting the repairs to free, we did expect a fair price, since the rock walls did not hold up as promised. The rock walls should have been set in adhesive to ensure they would hold up. Jim Thomas from Basile provided us with a bid that totaled $3,500 to fix the walls installed by his company. We were told the bid reflected a $300 discount, since Basile did the initial install. Materials for the repair would be limited to polymeric sealant, which should have been used on the initial install, and repairs to the yard around the walls requiring work. We tried to negotiate a fair price for the repairs, since material costs would be less than $500, but Mr. Thomas would not negotiate a fair price to fix the poor installation provided by his company. In short, if you are looking for a company that does quality work at a fair price and stands behind the work performed, you may want to contract with a different company."

Tree Service questions, answered by experts

For safety reasons, leaning trees are best removed by a professional, as they may often tear away from the hinge, causing you to lose control over where the tree falls. If you choose to cut down a tree leaning slightly, avoid cutting off root protrusions before you start. Make your hinge a little longer than usual by cutting it deeper (up to 30% of the diameter) and applying a wedge into the felling cut on the side the tree is leaning. Stand away from the direction the tree leans while making your felling cut.

The costs vary from $250 to $5,000 per tree, depending on the size, complexity of the trimming, and labor.

As a general rule, the protected area should be about 1½ times as wide as the canopy of the tree’s leaves. This digging measurement can vary by tree species and the age of the tree. Of course, that can be a lot of fencing for larger trees, which is why our first step is about making difficult decisions on which trees to save.

You can use a felling ax to chop down a tree by following the same prep and steps as a chainsaw, but be prepared to use some muscle. For trees bigger than 7 inches in diameter, it can take some time and serious strength to cut down a tree using just an ax. 

If you aren’t sure what you’re doing, be very careful when cutting mature tree roots (roots larger than 2 inches). Root cutting and pruning can affect both a tree’s stability and its ability to nourish itself. Issues during root cutting can result in damage or injury. 

It’s recommended you call in a pro to help, unless it’s a very small tree and you aren’t worried about the prospect of losing the tree.
