"Ron yoder one of the owners of the natrual state landscaping and curbing went into partnership with Keeton Lefgren and committed timber theft on my property, using the natrual state equipment and trucks to haul my timber, fully knowing this man had a felony for timber theft once before! We had never been paid, they damaged the land, dropping a large cedar on the septic tank and busting it, as well as stripped the value of the trees, depreciated the value of the timber and left trees fallen, cut wrong and worthless. They never took them to a sawmill, no invoices, no payment. This company, Ron Yoder, keeton lofgren and John raped our land and caused detrimental damages to our property and family FULLY AWARE they were working with a serial con man who has over 10 CRIMINAL AND CIVIL CASES AGAINST HIM!

We are a full service lawn service company that will provide you with the best quality service of all your lawn care needs.

"Omar was very nice. He was professional and on time. I feel like he gave us a fair price and did all the work he said he would so we were satisfied. The only slightly negative thing was the work ended up being done on a drizzly day. That resulted in him not being able to clean up all the soggy grass/lawn shavings and we had a bit of mud spread around in the driveway. I would have preferred to reschedule but he still did a great job and we would hire him again."

Leaf Removal questions, answered by experts

Using a drill to bore holes in the stump's center speeds up the process, whatever method you use. If you don’t have a drill, you can still chainsaw or chisel the stump to make it hollow; it will just take more elbow grease and time. Steer clear of burning the stump to hollow it if you can’t drill some holes in it first. Otherwise, getting it to light, stay lit, and burn right through will be a challenge.

All of the tree root removal methods mentioned above are effective on any kind of root, whether it’s still growing or simply needs a gentle nudge to finish decomposing. The only difference is that larger roots tend to be harder to remove and may require multiple chemical treatments as well as manual labor to eradicate.

Since summer is a busy time for tree companies, the cheapest time of year to remove a tree is during the winter. February and March are typically the prime time to hire a tree removal pro, and some homeowners living in colder climates can save around 20% off services. It depends on location and the company, but you can always shop around for the best deal.

Yes, you can build over a stump if the roots are no longer alive. Living roots will continue to grow and may damage your new construction over time. Similarly, you should also remove rotting stumps because they may continue to attract pests and even cause new structures (especially those made from wood) to decompose as well.

Stump grindings are usually safe to use in soil, but in some cases, it’s not recommended. Wood chips in particular can bind nitrogen in the soil, which will make it difficult for grass to grow. That’s why it’s important to remove most wood chips and use healthy garden soil if you want to cover the stump spot with grass. Large wood chips may attract beetles and could encourage the growth of fungi when they decay, so you may want to remove them when using the grindings.
