Mason and the crew did a fantastic job taking down our tree. It was a large locust, but they gave us a fair estimate and did the job in a day. They were polite and professional the entire time and were respectful of our neighbors and our property. We could not be more grateful for the work they did and recommend them to anyone who needs a tree removed!

They took down a big oak that was partially over the house. Took it down with no issues. Very professional and skilled. Cleaned up after. Left the yard cleaner than they found it.

Mason and his team were excellent! They arrived on time, were professional and helpful! They cut down a huge basswood tree in the backyard and had permission to use part of our neighbors lawn. Our neighbor (and us) were impressed by the clean up! Highly recommend! Thanks Mason.

If I could give more than 5 stars, I would. The entire team was very quick, super accommodating, very professional and each of them went beyond for our tree cutting. They left no track marks in the grass and cleaned everything prior to leaving. I would highly recommend Down Rite Tree Service. Their team was great!!!!
Milwaukee Stump Grinding FAQ
What homeowners across Greater Milwaukee ask before booking stump grinding.
Most stump grinding jobs in Milwaukee run $75–$400 per stump depending on diameter, root spread, and access. Grinding is significantly cheaper when it's bundled with a removal we're already doing — one trip, one setup fee. We measure at ground level and give you a fixed price up front.
We grind 4–8 inches below grade as standard, which is deep enough to lay sod, re-seed grass, or add landscaping over the top. If you're planning to build over the spot (patio, fence footing, new tree) let us know at the estimate and we'll grind deeper.
Yes — haul-away is included in most quotes. If you'd rather keep the mulch for landscaping or garden beds, we can redistribute it on-site at no extra charge.
We call 811 (Diggers Hotline of Wisconsin) before any grinding job to mark buried gas, water, and electric lines. Our grinders are self-propelled and gentle on turf; we lay down ply boards on soft lawns and clean up thoroughly. Damage is extremely rare and we're fully insured either way.
Absolutely — this is the most efficient way to do it. One crew, one setup, one cleanup. Ask about bundling when you book your removal and we'll price both together.
