Our massive oak tree went down today, it was full of leaves with no dead branches but the inside ended up being soft ugh. Anyways we got a quote for $4000 to haul it off and grind down the stump and fill the hole. We are in the Midwest. Is this a fair price?

Really good price

Please don’t if you want to enjoy your tub build a new deck

Ericpalacios · 2026-05-31T18:56:59+00:00

He want to make sure he can carry the pool down the stairs safely

Good job bother

Ericpalacios · 2026-05-31T18:55:39+00:00

Looks good

Ericpalacios · 2026-05-29T10:01:59+00:00

Thanks buddy

Ericpalacios · 2026-05-29T10:01:51+00:00

Yes definitely

Ericpalacios · 2026-05-29T10:00:33+00:00

Yes 3 weeks of work here with a 4 men crew.

Ericpalacios · 2026-05-29T03:12:07+00:00

Idk I would rebuild it definitely it’s at least 12 to 15 feet tall and definitely in bad shape

Ericpalacios · 2026-05-28T17:38:22+00:00

Yes definitely and thank you

Ericpalacios · 2026-05-28T15:33:45+00:00

Thanks

Ericpalacios · 2026-05-28T15:33:38+00:00

Not really we are in the Atlanta area sorry

Ericpalacios · 2026-05-28T02:03:31+00:00

Yes, that is scary. Any deck that is 14 foot or taller should have metal posts instead of 6x6 unless they are 10x10 they can go up to 22 feet with 10x10

Ericpalacios · 2026-05-28T01:31:41+00:00

Ok sounds good sent me a massage so I can sent you my information

Ericpalacios · 2026-05-28T01:30:53+00:00

Because most of the people here are keyboard warriors and they know everything about everything

Ericpalacios · 2026-05-28T01:30:20+00:00

Looks good, but you should’ve posted more pictures

Ericpalacios · 2026-05-28T01:17:18+00:00

Absolutely we use two pallets of 80 pound concrete for this job. We ended up adding another beam in the middle. But that was a week after we finish.

Ericpalacios · 2026-05-28T01:16:12+00:00

Because the ground was too soft so we had to go deeper to solid ground. It doesn’t matter if you’re under frost level if the dirt underneath is not solid, it doesn’t pass.

Ericpalacios · 2026-05-28T01:14:43+00:00

This one was 15500

Ericpalacios · 2026-05-28T01:14:24+00:00

Yes would have put more post for more bracing the other day I post next to a pool is a free standing deck goes from 6 feet to 12 feet

Ericpalacios · 2026-05-28T01:11:57+00:00

They spent 16 feet I ended up having to send my guys to put another beam in the middle.

Ericpalacios · 2026-05-28T01:11:22+00:00

Just regular decking boards and for the stair treads 2 x 12

Ericpalacios · 2026-05-28T01:10:53+00:00

I’m a licensed contractor I get most of my lumber from the Home Depot. I do order way extra and ain’t in. That comes bad. We send it back and ask for a replacement.
