A contractor who returns your calls promptly, quotes you a fair price for his work (they did start a little high but willingly negotiated - don't be shy), is there when he says he will be there, does what he is supposed to do (and does it well) - what else could you ask for in a contractor ??? Josh and Zack were great to work with - use them - you won't regret it! Work done: June 2012 - removal of two large (4 to 5+ ft. diameter) cedar stumps in our front yard, trees that we had removed earlier in the year. read more

Josh came out to my place promptly and did a great job grinding a tree stump in a VERY cramped space that required some creativity and perserverance. Super nice guy. Quick. Highly recommended. read more

I called J&J and needed stump grinding on a large Laurel hedge we had cut down. Spoke to Josh, who came out and did an excellent job the next day. He arrived on time and After checking out the site made quick work of it with his Stump grinder. He put up a debris catcher guard to protect house and windows from flying rocks. It's the first time I used J&J but would highly recommend them. Thanks Josh Great Job! Jack Vanderpool. read more

Update! When I let him know I was disappointed in his unprofessional behavior he texted me back angrily and threatened me that he wouldn't finish the job after I already paid for the majority. Don't hire this guy and waste your money!! ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This company was recommended to me by my reliable tree limbers however after a wonderful first impression I was then left with regret. On the day of the appointment I find out while he's working that he can't deal with my old chain link fence therefore he can't finish stump grinding. ...The thing is that I had already discussed this with another representative who first came out to look at my yard and he clearly said that as long as I didn't care for the integrity of the fence then he could deal with those 2 sections himself. I told him to go ahead and communicated with my neighbor to remove the wooden fence on their side. We plan to put a shared fence in the future so have to grind the stump in between our yards. What happened? The teenager had not communicated those expectations with the owner, the owner expected the teenager to be responsible after he was already a no show on the day of the appointment, and my neighbor is pissed because they took down the fence but the stump is still there. They feel they lost their privacy for no reason. They want me to finish so they can put the fence up again. As for me? I paid for the majority of the job and now need to find someone else. I cannot recommend!! The only thing I appreciate is that you can pay directly from your checking account with Venmo or Zelle but for such negligent service why bother? They didn't return my messages and inquiries after 2 days. Highly disappointed ! I can't recommend, find someone else ***Also they don't clean up afterwards. Service: Stump removal read more

J & J Stump Grinding - Unfinished after the majority was paid, then owner is unresponsive then angry when I reached out again after 2 days. He's rude and unprofess - Tree Services Near Me - Renton, Washington

Super quick, easy process to grind a stump in my backyard. They worked with me to get the machinery around some awkward tight spaces. Thank you so much! read more

I contacted Josh after I saw great reviews. He was very friendly, efficient, and honest. I thought I had a difficult stump to remove in a very tight corner of my back yard, and he made it in there with ease and made it look easy. He was quick and cleaned up after. I had him remove 12 stumps from my yard, he was in and out within an hour, and his pricing was very reasonable. I would highly recommend Josh and J & J Stump Grinding. read more

Quick, affordable, and great communication. Even offered to take out some additional small stumps at no extra cost. Would hire again and recommend for sure. Also really appreciated his concern for any nesting creatures before getting started on removal. read more

Great people that do great work! I recommend J&J every time someone I know needs a stump taken care of.

Josh did a fantastic job getting rid of the stump in our front yard. When I inquired about his services, he responded immediately and with the help of some pictures, was able to give me a quote right away. We appreciated the way he kept us informed and his punctuality. His did the job efficiently and neatly, making sure the lawn was clean and the wood chips in a neat pile before he left. A great value for the job done. read more

Really quick communication & gave the lowest price of 4 estimates for a really big/challenging stump removal. Other services said they would have to remove part of the yew that was adjacent, but J & J was able to work around it. Showed up the next day and the stump was gone in no time! Thanks! read more

If I could give J and J Stump Grinding a ten-star rating, I would. Josh, the owner, was great with responding to all of my questions. He did the work as promised. He was reasonable and was careful with surrounding plants. He did an excellent job, plus, he's a really nice person. read more

These guys are great! They are friendly and very responsive. We called on Friday and our three stumps were out before 10am on Monday! They're quick and do great work! read more

Josh and his crew grinded 3 huge tree stumps from backyard yesterday. Excellent job, good price, professional service and all around good experience. Thank you. read more

Unfortunately am unable to review based on any work done, so this review is based on the horrible communication received from this company. I had contacted J&J stump removal for an estimate and agreed upon a date and time for them to take a look. On the agreed upon date nobody arrived or contacted me about missing the date or attempting to reschedule. The next day I had reached out in response to their original email asking if they still wished to give an estimate. The day after that I received a very casual response basically saying sorry, I'll be there tomorrow. Unfortunately, the day they wished to come I was unavailable, but they did not wait for my confirmation, so I just left the gate open, with directions to the stump on my front door. They arrived on that day, looked around and left a business card. After 5 days of no contact from them I reached out asking for an estimate. I guess they did not remember my job and asked - "Well if I was there [how] come I didn't give you a bid LOL" Needless to say I won't be bothering to follow-up anymore. Just a waste of 3 weeks of my time. If their communication, scheduling and organization is this bad, I don't know if I would trust them with an actual project with any kind of set timeline. read more

We have had a large stump in our back yard for several years. My husband called J & J Stump Grinding and they came out to our home last week. They phone before they arrived to alert us. They were able to efficiently grind the annoying stump into sawdust, enabling us to make better use of our yard! read more

By far and above superior business in operations, customer service, pricing and job well done. I highly recommend!!! read more

Quickly returned my inquiry call. Very competitive price. Came out 2 days later and ground 3 stumps. Very happy with the service!

Guys kept their appointment time and made quick work of it. Well done. I would highly recommend them.

I hired J&J to grind down a stump in my front yard. I told them I was going to need to plant a tree in the same spot and he assured me that his grinder went down 17 inches so it shouldn't be a problem. Today when we went to dig the hole we spent about 4 hours digging out the stump and roots. It was ground down ten inches max and the roots were virtually untouched. These guys might be fine if you just need the stump ground for aesthetic purposes but if you need a stump removed completely I would look elsewhere. read more

Josh was able to come out immediately after I called to schedule a quote. He quoted a fair price and was able to complete the work on the same day. I would highly recommend J&J Stump Grinding to anyone needing stump removal. read more

I had a last minute stump related issue and I was very happy with the service provided. Good communication, fair price, and they got it done when they said it would get done. This saved me a ton of hassle and I recommend their services to anyone needing a stump grinded. I also live in a city area and the area of the stump was not the easiest place to get a large machine to. They did it with ease with NO damage to my property even when they had very little wiggle room. Call them now! read more

These guys did a great job on a very large and very old cherry laurel in my front yard. The cluster of stumps had started to sprout again between the time we had the limbs cut and the time we could get J&J out there, and it was all done in a few hours. Would definitely recommend J&J to friends. read more

This process was fantastic! Josh responded to my request for a quote very quickly. He was able to come out the next day to give me a quote to grind 5 stumps in my backyard. He not only gave me a great quote, but then did the work the very next minute! I was sure I was going to have to schedule a time out in the future, but within a shockingly quick time my stumps were removed, the area was cleaned up and he was on his way. I also want to note how much quieter the process was than I expected, you would think a big machine would drive the neighborhood crazy, but the leaf blower clean up after was actually louder. Josh navigated his machinery through our back gate which was a tight fit, I was nervous, but after watching the precision of each step along the way I had no reason to be concerned. I would recommend Josh and his team for any stump removal job. read more

What a pleasure. Off comes the giant machine, a few minutes of grinding a 30 inch stump and the giant machine goes back to its trailer. Zach cleaned up the wood shaving, double checked for a job well done. Then he was off. Excellent pricing, too. read more

J&J stump was the best decision we could have made for our stump removal. They were quick, affordable and polite. Couldn't ask for a better experience! I Highly recommend them. read more

While I can't remember his name, one of them came by this morning and was able to remove an old prune tree that was unsightly. He was super friendly, and performed the work very quickly and efficiently, leaving the area looking great! If you need anything like this done on your own property, I would highly recommend these guys! read more

They gave me a bid over the phone and removed the 11 tree stumps that I had. They kept their quote and the work was done in about 2 hours. We had them cut the stumps down further than normal but it was not problem. They did a great job and cleaned up after. I even had them grind the stump of an old maple tree in the back yard and it was done at the same time. Great guys to work with price is good and the work is great, I would recommend them anytime... read more

I was in need of a stump grinding service and called 10 different companies. J & J was the only company that answered my call. I explained that I needed several stumps removed within 2 days. Josh explained that they were booked up for the week, but then told me that they would be willing to remove the stumps on a Saturday afternoon. Zach showed up on time and removed the 7 stumps, each to my satisfaction. read more

I was very pleased with theese guys. Zach made an appointment with me and showed up right on time. He quoted me a great price and he started right away. Zach was quick and professional. Keep in mind they take checks or cash only. Thanks guys! read more

Very unprofessional. He was working about 2 - 4 feet from my RV and failed to cover it. Wood chips and scraps all over the side and on my slab. Then argued that he only needed to clean a 6 X 6 section of the RV even though the entire side was messed up. Normally not as big a deal, but I had just washed it the week before. Also noticed my cable went out while he was working. Comcast came out and found two lines severed where he was working. Repair guy said it should have been obvious that he cut them. Very Low Class! read more

Hired these guys for work on Thursday, never showed. After I called them he reschedule for Saturday, I moved my schedule around to make it happen and they never showed no phone call nothing. Very unreliable and strung me along for a week and I still have that stump read more

Just had a large cherry tree stump with a major root system removed by J & J this morning. We were able to send measurements, photos of the stump, and access to it, by phone and got a quote based on that. Took about 40 minutes start to finish. Friendly guys who get right to work. Professional and affordable. read more

Another guy who just does the job! I go to work and magic happens! Fast, affordable, super nice. Just what I need in my hectic life! Thanks!

I like doing things myself but after looking at renting equipment and zero experience we called in J & J Stump Grinding. Josh kept me up on his arrival time and went to work without delay. He took care of five stumps in a couple of hours all the while constantly making sure everyone in the area was safe. This undoubtedly is one task I will always call Josh or his brother Zach to do the job. They have the serious heavy duty equipment and can get in and out quickly. This was the smarter bang for my buck. read more

We could not be more pleased with J & J Stump Grinding services! We had a good half dozen, very large evergreen stumps to remove from our property. Josh saw this through to the end--which included two extra trips out due to some serious hornet nest surprises. Josh had the right equipment for the job, and his work was fast and affordable. I will gladly recommend J & J Stump Grinding - and would use this company again in a heartbeat! read more
