"I asked Nick to undertake a number of different jobs: refinishing a large redwood arbor, repairing and painting a broken gate, refinishing a redwood gate, adjusting a metal gate that wouldn't open, replacing a door with a new door [painted, fitted, with new hinges]. All of these jobs were completed promptly, efficiently, professionally [with everything left clean and well ordered]. It is indeed rare to have the pleasure of working with someone who is so skilled, professional, and friendly, and able to tackle and complete a variety of tasks so efficiently. I will definitely be calling on Nick again in the future and while I hope that he is as busy as he deserves to be, I am only afraid that he might become too busy..."

Arborists questions, answered by experts

While the fastest way to kill a tree is to simply cut it down, there are several other methods to choose from. You should hire a professional tree removal service to cut down a tree to ensure your personal and property safety. Some slower but effective options include treating or grinding the tree stump or using a basal bark treatment. 

The best tools for tree removal include a chainsaw for large trees, an ax for notching and cutting down small trees, and a wedge to help control the direction a tree falls in. A hatchet can be useful for very small trees, but won’t be effective for medium to large trees. 

Palm tree removal can cost anywhere between $100 and $1,800 depending on palm size, tree condition, labor, location, and the amount of prep work involved. With the necessary skills, a DIY palm tree removal for trees shorter than 15 feet can lower costs. However, it’s generally recommended that you hire a palm tree expert for tree removal.

Local tree removal prices range from $200 to $2,000 overall, but vary depending on:

  • Local cost of labor and supplies

  • Accessibility of the tree

  • Local laws regarding who is allowed to remove the tree

  • The species of the tree (softer woods are often easier to remove)

  • Local seasonal discounts for the off-season

Yes, you can prune a palm tree with a chainsaw, but a chainsaw is overkill for a job like this. You risk damaging the tree if you make a bad cut. More commonly, you’ll need pruning shears or a serrated knife to trim a palm tree, or you can use a specialized pruning saw instead of a chainsaw.
