Hello, I am a recently retired educator and coach. I learned building trades from my father as a child and worked with him in construction for 8 years building houses from the ground up including plumbing, wiring, concrete, cabinetry, etc. from framing to finish. I have completed my own additions, remodeling, and repairs for the last 30 years. I'm a detail oriented perfectionist that enjoys working with my hands and providing a quality, reasonably priced service.

Micklitz Construction can do anything from trimming trees, all the way to remodeling a front porch or patio. Our main source, is yard work around houses to please clients, but also pressure washing, painting, insulation, and remodeling. I have been a handy man for these kind of jobs for over 3 years. I have a lot of experience because my father runs his own construction company for remodeling, plumbing, and tile work for his clients. I feel to be an all around hard worker and an easy employee whenever the time is needed.

Leaf Removal questions, answered by experts

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.

Whether it's better to grind or remove a stump depends on your professional tree service’s advice and what you intend for the landscape to look like after removal. Grinding is faster and likely more affordable, but manual removal unearths the root system and leaves the potential for a clean slate for landscape design. 

Salt, herbicide, light deprivation, boiling water, and burning can all help dissolve a tree stump. You can also bury the tree stump in soil or mulch to help it rot naturally. Killing a tree stump prevents future regrowth, but you may also remove it by digging it out or grinding it.

The cost for a professional tree service runs anywhere between $200 and $760, depending on the size and type of the tree. It might also cost more if you live in a remote area or if the tree is difficult to access, though a pro might offer a discount if you have multiple trees to trim.

Some fast-acting products can rot a tree stump in four to six weeks. Keep in mind, these products contain harsh chemicals that may prevent regrowth in the area. Other products, like fertilizer that contains lots of nitrogen, can enhance the process and rot a stump in about a year. (This is compared to the ten years it can take naturally for a stump to rot.)
