"Danne and Corey were personable, excellent professionals during the entire process, from the estimate to completing the service. Danne came by on a Saturday morning, did his inspection of the trees to be removed and stump grounded, provided a verbal quote, which Corey sent over the formal quote shortly thereafter. After reviewing the several quotes with my partner, we decided on ExTREEme Tree Experts for the reasonable price and thorough communication on the details and overall process. We had about 8 trees and several bushes on a 30° slope, with 2 of the trees over 40ft. Day 1, they set up their wood chipper and began clearing the trees one by one. By the 2nd day, there were 2 trees left, which Danne handled swiftly and began grinding down the stumps. It was a huge undertaking, but Danne and his team did an excellent job clearing all the trees and bushes, although it did take an additional morning to get the remaining stumps. There were a couple stumps left ungrounded, as their location made them inaccessible with the grinder they had, which Danne explained and reduced the price for the service. I've already recommended them to family members who need their services and would definitely hire them again if we ever move to another place with trees that need removal."

"This company was amazing to do business with!  They were on time and completed the job in the time frame they estimated to get it done.  They were very professional and truly hard working.  I can not say enough good things about them.  We were so fortunate to have hired them.  They managed the job well and were courteous to the neighbors.  We got 3 bids on this job because of the number of trees to be cut and their size.  Ridgeline Tree Service provided a fair bid and exceeded our expectations.  We will use their service again.

I found all of the workers to be present and communicated with me effectively. I’d fully recommend them to anyone !!"

Tree Service FAQs, answered by experts

Hiring an arborist or tree surgeon is usually more expensive than a standard tree company, but it is often worth the investment. Arborists have education and certifications that standard companies typically lack, leading to a more professional, expert-level service. Their expertise is particularly valuable for diseased or infested trees, as they can ensure safer removal and help prevent the issue from spreading. Additionally, arborists may be necessary for work near power lines, as uncertified companies are often not permitted to service these trees. If your goal is to preserve the health of your trees, an arborist is the best choice. Their services, such as stump grinding, are also performed with greater expertise to ensure a safe depth that won't cause your lawn to collapse over time.

There are four common ways to prune a tree correctly: crown thinning, crown reduction, crown raising, and crown cleaning. The method you choose depends on the purpose of pruning. However, making the correct cuts is a vital part of the process, regardless of your method. Pruning incorrectly can damage or even kill the tree. So, you may want to hire a professional tree-trimming company to tackle the task. 

Not all leaning trees are dangerous, but they can be a hazard as gravity may eventually cause them to fall. A key factor is whether the lean is new or has been present for a long time. Trees that have grown with a lean for years are not typically an immediate danger, but a sudden lean is a cause for concern as it often indicates weakening roots. If a tree is leaning more than 15% from vertical, you should consider having it straightened or transplanted. To be safe, it's always best to hire a professional arborist to inspect any leaning tree to assess the risk and avoid potential accidents.

Generally, you’ll want to avoid pruning more than 25% of the tree’s canopy at one time. While pruning your tree is important, it’s possible to do it too often or to go too far. Again, this is why hiring a tree trimming pro to do the work is wise. However, if you do decide to DIY, going slow and trimming gradually is the name of the game.

Since summer is a busy time for tree companies, the cheapest time of year to remove a tree is during the winter. February and March are typically the prime time to hire a tree removal pro, and some homeowners living in colder climates can save around 20% off services. It depends on location and the company, but you can always shop around for the best deal.
