"We have several fruit trees in the yard that needed trimming. We had them trimmed several years ago and noticed that they have not been as productive with fruit since. We wanted a company that included arborists to ensure that the tree trimming would result in a healthy and productive tree. We looked at companies with the most favorable Yelp reviews and we called Mana. Cody came to assess the job and gave us a fair price. On the assigned day, he and his crew of 4 came and did a fantastic job of trimming our trees. One of their arborists, Jorge R., was the one who went up the trees and selectively cut branches, while also leaving flowering branches intact so that we could potentially get some fruit from the tree this season. Also, we are able to again see the great view over the lanai now that the trees have been trimmed How we appreciated that! The crew was hard working and respectful. They did a great job cleaning up. Our yard looked cleaner after they left! We are so happy with Mana's work and plan to continue to use their services when we again need our trees trimmed. Mahalo Mana!"

Cost was competitive but reasonable and well worth it. I will definitely give Susano a call again for maintenance and other work. I would highly would recommend him to family & friends! Thank you Susano & crew!"

Arborists FAQs, answered by experts

There are a few general rules to follow that will help you prune your trees correctly. One of the most important rules is to prune during the correct season for the type of tree you have. Typically, pruning should be during late winter. For younger trees, you should not remove more than a ⅓ of the tree's crown when pruning. Also, remember to remove dead and diseased branches first, then proceed with pruning the rest of the tree.

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.

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

Professionals use assessments, strategic cuts, specialized equipment, and safety measures to ensure healthy growth or the safe removal of trees or shrubs.

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.
