Seedling To Stump

Like all homeowners, I’ve had to deal with my share of contractors over the years, and most of the time it hasn't been a wonderful experience. You can imagine my dread at outsourcing something I’ve never had done before: tree removal. I couldn’t help but imagine the worst-case scenario of trees crashing into my house.

Getting smarter in my old age, I consulted social media first, and found very positive reviews online for Seedling to Stump. I connected with Amanda via phone and arranged an appointment at a time convenient for me (how often does that happen?). I was impressed by this lady’s professional demeanor and cheerful disposition. Her quote was competitive and because we liked Amanda’s personal presentation, we went with her organization. Best contracting decision we’ve made in a loooooong time.

The crew arrived on schedule and we were very impressed by the speed at which they worked. We had a silver maple trimmed, 3 trees (2 maydays and a birch) removed, the birch cut into fire logs and 2 of the 3 stumps ground down. The crew started at 8 AM, finished all the cutting and trimming by 11:30AM, and ground down the 2 stumps later the same afternoon. The cleanup was excellent and the crew always had time to stop and answer my questions. Amanda moreover directed me to coupons, which as seniors were worth 10% of the total cost to us. We were wowed by the punctuality, speed, skill and professionalism of this small company. Of all the work I’ve outsourced in the last 15 years, this was by far the most satisfying result we’ve had. We already have a few tree-related projects in the works for 2016 and we know exactly whom we’ll be calling.
