Tree Stump Removal

At Hufnagel Tree Service, we understand the importance of maintaining a pristine and functional landscape. Unsightly tree stumps from removed trees can significantly diminish the beauty and usability of your lawn. Not only are they an eyesore, but they can also pose safety hazards, attract pests, and obstruct future landscaping projects. Our professional tree stump removal services ensure that your property is safe, clean, and visually appealing.

Tree stumps left behind can cause a variety of problems for homeowners and property managers. They can disrupt the visual harmony of your landscape, creating a cluttered and neglected appearance. Beyond aesthetics, these stumps can be dangerous, especially in areas where children play or where frequent lawn maintenance occurs. Tripping over a hidden stump or encountering roots with a lawnmower can lead to injuries and equipment damage.

The Importance of Tree Stump Removal

Tree stumps left behind after tree removal can create various issues for homeowners and property managers. Here are some key reasons why stump removal is essential:

  • Aesthetic Improvement: Stumps can detract from the overall beauty of your landscape. Removing them restores the natural, clean look of your lawn.
  • Safety: Stumps and their protruding roots can be tripping hazards, especially for children and elderly individuals. They can also damage lawn equipment.
  • Pest Prevention: Decaying stumps can attract pests such as termites, ants, and beetles, which may eventually spread to healthy trees or even your home.
  • Obstacle Removal: Stumps can interfere with mowing, landscaping, and construction projects. Removing them provides a clear, flat area for future use.

 

Our Tree Stump Removal Process

We take pride in offering a thorough and efficient tree stump removal process that leaves your property looking better than ever. Here’s how we do it:

  1. Initial Assessment: We start with a detailed assessment of the stump and surrounding area to determine the best approach for removal.
  2. Stump Grinding: Using state-of-the-art equipment, we grind the stump down to below ground level, ensuring that it is completely removed.
  3. Root Removal: Next, we address the old roots, especially those that may have grown around pipes or under concrete. Our team carefully removes these roots to prevent future problems.
  4. Site Restoration: After the stump and roots are removed, we fill the hole with high-quality soil and level the area. This step ensures that your lawn is left clean, safe, and ready for new plantings or grass.
  5. Debris Cleanup: We always take care of all debris and thoroughly clean up the site before leaving, ensuring that your property is immaculate.

5 Stars – Outstanding Emergency Tree Service!
I had an unexpected emergency when a major tree branch came down, sheared my fence, and fell into my neighbor’s yard. I called Hufnagel Tree Service and within 10 minutes, Mike—the owner—was in my yard assessing the situation. By 10am the very next morning, Mike and his team were back on my property, ready to handle the job.

Not only was their response incredibly fast and efficient, but the price for this emergency work was shockingly affordable. I was beyond impressed with their professionalism, friendliness, and the quality of the work.

It’s rare to find a local business that you can truly trust in a pinch, and Hufnagel Tree Service delivered above and beyond. Mike and his crew are licensed, certified arborists, and it shows in the excellence of their work.

I highly recommend Hufnagel for any tree service—emergency or otherwise. I’ll definitely be calling them for all of my future tree needs. Thank you again to Mike and the entire team—you’re phenomenal!
Mike arrived at 10:00 am for an estimate on tree trimming. He listened and understood exactly what I needed. He brought his crew back an hour later and did a great job! He worked with me and asked for my input every step of the way to be sure they did exactly what I wanted. They were very professional, completed job including total cleanup. Would definitely recommend! Thank You.
This is the best tree service I’ve ever dealt with. Not only did they do an amazing job removing trees in difficult tight spaces, but they were able to clean everything up beautifully. They also were very accessible. Mike was easy to get a hold of and they were out and able to provide the service quickly and reliable. My home had a lot of dead trees some overhanging power lines and near the house. Now it’s all cleared out and very open. This is where I’ll go for all my future projects. Thanks Mike and crew!!
I called Hufnagel Tree Service to take a look at a strange growth on one of my trees and to make trimming recommendations on a few others. Got an immediate response and a sound set of recommendations. I then engaged the company to do the recommended trimming which they did the next day. The price was reasonable and the work impeccable. I will most certainly use them again and recommend then to anyone who needs tree work.
Highly recommend Hufnagel Tree Service.

I needed a Certified Arborist (as per my borough’s regulations), to work on saving a distressed tree and taking down a diseased tree. Mike Hufnagel called me back promptly after I left a voicemail, and he provided the services a few days later. Mike is a knowledgeable arborist, service was professional, done quickly, and price was reasonable for such high quality work. I will definitely use Hufnagel Tree Service again!
A tree fell on our house in the middle of a terrible rain storm on a Saturday in September & Mike was at our place within an hour with his crew. He stood in the rain for HOURS and his team efficiently removed the tree from our dwelling so that it would prevent any further damages. [Meanwhile, every other service in the area said No Thanks until monday.] Mike has been here every step of the way guiding us on other possible trees that could be a threat. Hes amazing to work with and his team is the most reliable in the area. Thank you for making a really tough situation so much easier to manage, Mike.
Amazing service. Called for estimate, Mike came out same day. Competitive and fair pricing. Work completed next day. Crew was polite, skilled and took great care with yard and clean up. This was the 3rd time I have used Hufnagel Tree Service. True arborist who know about trees 🌳 highly recommend!
