"Cut down the tree that we agreed on and did a great job. The only complaint is I had another small tree that had been down for awhile with just the trunk remaining that they said they would take as well if they had the room as a favor. After they did the tree they were paid to do they said they did not have the room for the small tree but they pretty clearly did. I probably shouldnâ t complain cuz I didnâ t offer to pay them any extra for it and that might have magically created room. They definitely had room in my opinion and Iâ m not sure they were ever really going to try despite what they said. That said whoâ s really going the extra mile these days anyway? They cut the tree down they were paid for and took every branch without a trace in about 2 hours at market rate. Solid company just be clear and have everything on paper before they start if you have a larger project then this would be my take away from the experience. Which is probably a good idea anyway."

"I had talked to Andy on the phone.  He said he would be by to and showed up about 1:00pm and started to work.  I heard the noise from his roller and went out to see him in the front yard.  It took him 45 to 60 minutes to complete the job.  We discussed some other work I wanted done.  He said he would have to check on the price of the product.  He gave me a call back in about 30 to 45 minutes.  We agreed on the scope of the future job.

Arborists questions, answered by experts

Pruning trees during the summer can be a bad idea because the new growth will take place during the hottest months of the year, which can stress your tree out. Similarly, pruning during the early fall can be a bad idea, too, because you’d be stimulating new growth when most trees are aiming to go dormant. 

Pruning recommendations will vary by the type of tree, but generally, waiting until winter to prune your trees is a good idea.

On average, tree removal costs around $750, with a typical range between $200 and $2,000. The final price depends on several factors, including the tree's height, trunk diameter, species, and overall health. Accessibility is also a key factor; costs will be higher if the tree is in a hard-to-reach area or located near structures like power lines or your home. Additional costs may apply for services such as stump removal (which can add $100 to $150), log-splitting, debris cleanup, and obtaining necessary permits. It is also customary to tip the professional, usually between $20 and $100.

While trees can grow in the curb strip between the sidewalk and the street, this placement often poses the problem of interfering with overhead power lines. It’s best to consult your local utility provider and tree planting service before transplanting a tree that might grow into power lines. Also, you should never work within 20 feet of a live power line to avoid the risk of electric shock. Tree branches should never touch nearby power lines, so it’s essential to ensure your tree isn’t in danger of growing too close to them.

The cost of professional tree service, such as trimming, is $460 on average, but the price can range from $75 to $1,800. A more typical range is between $200 and $760. The final price depends on several factors, including the size and type of the tree. For example, trimming Crepe Myrtle trees costs an average of $80 to $400, while giant pine trees can range from $200 to $1,800. Other factors that influence the cost include the time of year, as services are often more expensive in the spring. Your location can also play a role; costs may be higher if you live in a remote area or if the tree is difficult to access. However, some professionals may offer a discount if you have multiple trees that need service.

Yes, forestry mulching can grind stumps, but the level of effectiveness depends on the equipment used. Drum mulchers can break down smaller stumps, but larger or deep-rooted stumps may require a dedicated stump grinder for complete removal. If full stump removal is necessary for replanting or construction, additional excavation may be needed. Always check with your forestry mulching provider to confirm whether they offer stump grinding and if their equipment is suitable for your specific needs.
