Estimates are estimates

Every price this site produces is a modelled range built from published wage data and stated crew-hour assumptions. It is a sanity check against a quote, not a quote. A real bid comes from someone who has stood under the tree.

Not a hazard assessment

Drop zone

The risk matrix and species pages on this site are educational. A tree over a target — a house, a road, a play area — is assessed on site by a qualified arborist. Felling, climbing and chainsaw work near power lines is regulated work and is never a DIY job.

Content and reuse

Text, calculators and illustrations on StumpDeck are ours. Quote a figure with a link back; do not republish a page wholesale.

Sponsored content

Some articles and vendor listings on this site are paid placements. Payment buys presence, never the page’s verdict or a vendor’s ranking, and every vendor claim is checked against the vendor’s own documentation before it is published. A sponsor never sees anything about you.

Liability

The site is provided as is. We are not liable for decisions made from it — including a removal that was not needed, or one that was postponed.
