Fabulous job! Punctual, courteous, very effective cleaners, friendly, and nonjudgmental. They cleaned everything I asked and more. They were considerate of our pet beagle too. My house needed deep cleaning; it just got away from me and I didn’t catch up. I’m glad I called Deep Dive Cleaning...

Terry was meticulous with both the paint job (including area prep) and the post-job clean-up. He applied an additional third coat to one door when he was not happy with the 2nd coat coverage without prompting from me and without an additional charge.

It was some trimming up work. They removed another couple of trees and trimmed down some other away from the road. They are great. They come in and they do their thing and they leave. The second time I had a bunch of brush I had out for the city to pick up and they just threw in their stuff....

Brush Chipping questions, answered by experts

Yes, removal services can handle projects like estate clearouts or major renovations.

Wood is a very versatile material, so you can either compost it, use it for firewood, turn it into wood chips, or save it for future projects. If you don’t want excess wood cluttering your garage or workspace, you can call local community centers or schools to see if they have a need for it.

Excavators work in tandem with dump trucks to haul away excess dirt and soil. The excavator will dig into the ground and move the excess dirt into a pile. Using a backhoe, the specialist can fill a truck with excavated soil from that pile. They will then drive the truck to a different location where they can dump the material.

The most common alternative is burning the stump first, then dealing with the cinders and ashes. As you can imagine, this option creates fire hazards, especially since roots can burn underground, hidden, for long afterward. That’s why many states and cities have outlawed the use of stump burning entirely. We do not recommend this option as a viable alternative unless you get a permit from the local fire department and practice all safe burning procedures.

Others prefer a more long-term DIY approach of degrading the stump with home mixtures like Epsom salt and vinegar injected directly into it. This may help the stump decay faster, allowing homeowners to dig it out themselves, but it’s still a lengthy process. It usually takes months for a stump to start falling apart with such treatments, and in the meantime, it can be vulnerable to rot, insects, and other problems.

Hiring a leaf removal company is a reliable way to get rid of a lot of leaves in your yard. Some companies offer a full range of yard cleaning services, while others may only haul away the leaves you gather and bag yourself. If you prefer the DIY route, you can try mulching leaves with your mower, using a leaf blower to collect them, using a leaf tarp to bag them, and more.
