Most property owners know that tree removal is always best left to professionals, but not all owners consider the fact that, once their trees have been removed, they’ll be left with unsightly and potentially dangerous stumps. Some companies offer Stump Grinding in Orange County in addition to tree removal, which can make property owners’ lives much easier.
Those who have already decided to go with a company that offers both tree removal and stump grinding can still take a few steps to get their properties prepared. Read on to find out how.
Clear the Area
Whether the tree has already been removed and only the stump is left or the tree service will be performing all of this work at once, it’s important that the surrounding area is cleared of all lawn furniture, children’s toys, and other easily movable objects. Not only will this make life easier for the contractors, it will also ensure no property is damaged in the process of taking down the tree or removing the stump.
Keep Pets and Kids Occupied
Homeowners with small children or household pets should make provisions to keep them away from the work site. Leave dogs and cats indoors, and make plans to keep kids occupied so that they won’t be in the way or, even worse, exposed to danger. Although stump grinding is safe when it is performed by an experienced contractor, the area won’t be safe for kids or for pets, and no contractors want to worry about whether the family dog will be running up and barking while they are trying to get their jobs done.
Ensure Access and Parking
Stump Grinding in Orange County requires specialized equipment. That equipment must be hauled in using company trucks, and those trucks will need to be parked on-site. Homeowners should move their own vehicles out of their driveways prior to their contractors’ arrival to make sure everything goes smoothly and no time is wasted.
