And if you’re working on a ladder, be sure to follow all safety precautions, especially if you’ll be dealing with falling branches.

There are a few things you should look for in a stump removal company to make sure you’ll be satisfied with the results:

Any vegetation that grows within 10 feet or so of power lines will fall under the responsibility of the utility company, and they may trim or remove it as necessary. If you do move forward with your plan, try to choose a smaller ornamental tree, plant it as far away from the power lines as you can, and keep it trimmed to avoid future problems.
