"For the project, we received five bids ranging from $475 to $1200. Of the five, The Cutting Edge was the only individual who took the time to check on whether his stump grinder could make its way to the back yard through a narrow gate passageway. He also was the only one who discussed stump grinding in regard to how deep they would reduce the stump below ground level. He provided a written proposal during the meeting. Once we decided to select The Cutting Edge to do the work, a date was scheduled for the work to be done. The five person crew arrived on time in two trucks: one towing a stump grinder, the other towing a large cart for branches. They went to work right away, the owner first trimmed off branches while others carted them around the house and loaded up the cart. As the cart got full, a worker used a chain saw to cut up the branches so more could settle into the truck. As work continued, workers would rake up debris around the truck out at the road. Cutting down the tree took little time: branches gave way to a standing trunk which led to one of the workers climbing up in the tree to cut off larger pieces which fell to the ground. Large garbage barrels were placed upside down over nearby plants to protect them from anything falling. When the tree trunk was down to about 7 feet tall, the owner used a larger chainsaw to take it down pieced by piece until the stump was left a few inches above ground. They then brought in the stump grinder. With garbage barrels positioned to make sure nothing flew toward the house, the stump grinder did its work. Lots of shredded stump remained which was swept up, with raking of the area to finish the job. Suffice it to say, this was a professional operation that ran very smoothly with a pleasant crew all who seemed to be well versed in their duties. While the owner took charge and managed the removal, others on the crew did some of the major parts; i.e., this was not just one fellow with expertise but instead a good solid crew where everyone seemed to be skilled."

"The crew was very knowledgeable, friendly, and professional - and my trees look fantastic! I needed major pruning on 6 trees and they did a great job making sure the trees were healthy and stable and also cleaning up the yard afterwards. I can’t wait to finally enjoy my backyard now that it’s not so overgrown!"

"I got a good price from other tree removal companies but hired Branching Out Tree Service because they were very friendly and were the only ones that could provide proof of Workman Compensation Insurance (to protect their workers and me in case on an accident for this big and risky job). They arrived with a big crane right on time early morning and did a perfect job. They were very professional, clean, super organized, they were done quickly and left my front yard in perfect shape. Their Office manager and office staff replied to all my emails quickly and answered all my questions before I decided to hire them. I highly recommend them for big and risky jobs, as well as small jobs because of their overall impeccable professionalism."

"Travis & Isaac were extremely polite and helpful. They showed up on time both days and worked diligently the whole time they were here. They walked through the area with me to make sure they had a clear understanding of what we wanted done. They did more than expected in clean up, manicuring trees, etc. They even cleaned up the entry way which wasn't expected!"

"Hire them! The owner met with me personally, and from the start I could see how much care he puts into his family-owned business. He returned with a talented team and worked right alongside them. They removed a large tree, completed major trimming, and reclaimed the entire fenceline skillfully. They treated my disabled veteran father with genuine respect, and the quality of their work reflects the attention they give to every detail. Our family is truly grateful, and I recommend them without hesitation."

Arborists FAQs, answered by experts

Hiring an arborist costs around $900 on average, with prices ranging from $250 to $2,500 or more. Some arborists charge an hourly rate, typically between $100 and $350 per hour. The final cost depends on several factors, including the type of work, the number of trees, accessibility, and whether you hire an independent arborist or a larger tree service company. When hiring, you should also consider their experience and insurance coverage.

Below are some estimated costs for common arborist jobs:

  • Small tree removal: $300 to $500

  • Large tree removal: $500 to $2,000 or more

  • Tree health assessment: $150

  • Trimming a small tree: $75 to $200

  • Trimming a large tree: $150 to $400

  • Dealing with invasive species: $150 to $1,000 or more

Large, established tree branches won’t grow roots, but if you find a young tree branch that’s less than about a year old, you’ve got a shot. Put it in water or soil as soon as possible for best results. You’ll know the branch is viable if it’s about the thickness of a pencil and has some leaves or needles.

Whether tree roots will continue to grow after a tree has been cut down depends on the species. Some tree roots will eventually die because they can no longer get nutrients through photosynthesis. However, other species that reproduce through root sprouts can continue to grow and produce new sprouts for seven years or more. For example, the roots of elms, ficus, and willows tend to regrow aggressively, while the roots of pines, oaks, and maples will typically die. To determine if a root system is still active, look for new sprouts on the old trunk, stump, or any exposed roots.

It is possible to burn out a tree stump if it is dried out and in an area of your property with a large buffer. Drill holes in the stump and dig around the base so it burns more easily. Then, build a small campfire on top using kindling and firewood. You’ll need enough to keep the fire going for many hours to completely burn out the stump, especially if it’s large. 

Monitor the fire closely to ensure it doesn’t spread, and have a hose on hand if it starts to get out of control. When the fire is out, break apart the burned stump and dig out what’s left of it.  

If this sounds like a good option, learn more about how to burn a tree stump before attempting it, as it does come with risks.

Aside from removing dead or diseased branches, you should prune your trees somewhere between every one and three years. Some people—particularly commercial farmers—prune their apple trees yearly to produce higher yields. This is the best way to promote tree health. That said, the average homeowner can get away with hard-pruning their mature apple tree every other year or every three years.
