All of our trees are large, locally grown, healthy, and beautiful. Trees make the biggest impact on your home landscape, and they really make your house stand out from the rest. Rest assured, that we are the real deal, with thousands of satisfied customers across Chicagoland. We aren’t some multi-national corporation either- just a small, local business selling and planting the highest quality trees for the best prices. If you don’t believe us, you are more than welcome to give us a call, or even come pick out your trees before you buy! We pride ourselves on our service, and we are more than happy to answer any questions you might have!

"Ordered trees in April and they delivered & planted in May. The 3 man crew arrived on time and planted: 1 Redbud and one Nigra Arborvitae. If iTrees plants for you, the trees receive a 1 year guarantee. I opted for a 2 year replacement warranty on the Redbud because they can be "fussy." 6ft Redbud: $450.00 Planting/warranty $275.00 5-6ft Nigra Arborvitae $450.00 Planting/warranty $225.00 Green Backs Program Discount -$50.00 ___________________________________ Total Payment $1,350.00 Note: I had never used this company. I typically purchase trees from an online company, but with Covid, wanted to support local business. We were doing a tremendous amount of landscaping ourselves and wanted to treat our old bones to have a professional come in and plant our investment for us. The crew was extremely polite and answered all questions. We were amazed and how fast they were! They were very careful not to upset any electric/gas lines. We had called the utility company prior to their visit. What I really like: this company only sells LOCALLY grown trees that grow in the area. Online companies have great products and will have the buyer choose products within their growing zone but they also sell invasive species."

FAQs for land clearing projects in Milford, IL

Unfortunately, some plumbing scenarios, like a broken sewer pipe repair, will require excavation to complete the job. Plumbing excavation costs range from $30 to $70 per cubic foot. However, if you need additional trenching, expect to pay an extra $4 to $12 per linear foot. Keep in mind that these costs are on top of the plumbing repair costs, and they don’t account for labor costs. Consult your excavation specialist to determine an accurate estimate for your job.

Yes, you will want to confirm that the tree removal company you hire is insured before proceeding with the job. Tree removal can be dangerous work, and it's important to verify that the company carries the proper insurance to cover any onsite accidents or damage.

As you browse our pro listings, take note of the “Angi Approved” badge. Angi Approved businesses meet our standards for certification which include: 

  • The owner, principal, or relevant manager passed a criminal background check

  • Required to have applicable state and local licenses

  • Maintain an average star rating of 3.0 or better on our network, if they have at least one review

  • Paying to advertise their services

  • Meeting any other eligibility criteria required by Angi

Keep in mind licensing is different from certifications. A license is a legal requirement to operate a business, while certifications are voluntary.

The average cost for pool excavation is $2,500. This cost can range from $450 to $4,500, depending on the pool shape and size, time of year, and any need to move buried utilities. 

When excavating for your pool, you might have to move existing utilities. You can expect to pay an additional $15 to $25 per linear foot to move gas lines. To move a septic system, it’ll cost an additional $2,000 to $20,000. A pool that is 10 feet by 12 feet averages $450 to excavate, and a 20-foot-by-40-foot pool averages $3,020.

The cost for residential excavation is $3,200 on average, ranging between $50 and $200 per cubic yard. Total costs could range from $500 to $15,000, depending on the project type, yard size, and soil type. 

When a project needs an excavator, the contractor will subcontract one as part of the larger project. If you hire an excavation specialist, you can expect to pay between $40 and $180 per hour. When excavating, if you have soil with excessive rocks or clay deposits, expect an additional cost of $200 to $1,200.

On average, removing a tree costs around $750, but you can expect to pay between $200 to $2,000. Factors that impact the overall cost include the number of trees you’re having removed, their height, the diameter of their trunks, permits needed, and the tree’s accessibility. You’ll pay more if the tree is in a hard-to-reach area or dangerous location, like close to power lines.
