How can I get rid of a bush with utility lines underneath it?

• <div><p>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.</p></div>

Jesse did an awesome job on my project. He shows up on time and won’t quit until it’s done. No matter how hot it is or how dirty the work gets. There has been zero cracking or chipping. Top notch job at a fair price.

Excellent work in the midst of a significant material shortage. Beautiful fence built on site and took away a significant amount of brush that I created while they were here. Great group of guys, very happy with the result.

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....

From estimate to completion - excellent. It was incredible to watch them remove these huge half-dead trees. They needed to take down the fence and use the neighbor's yard to access my backyard in order to get in the chipper and other equipment. It took two days - scheduled apart - to do all...
