Customers say: Quick response

"I had a massive oak in my small front yard and an even more massive elm in the back, Both very close to the house, both heavily canopied over the house as well as the neighbor houses on either side...really tight quarters. Out of laziness, I supposed, I hired an outfit I had previously used for some trim work on the oak in the front. Big mistake. After about two weeks, the oak was maybe 65% done and collateral damage on the last day they worked to the tune of about $1500. Fired them. This time I did my due diligence and got about 3 bids to finish the oak and tackle the elm in the back. Heggood's was among the bids and I went with them because of the reviews and a very reasonable bid. Also, Mark Heggood gave the best presentation when he came to give the bid. The crew showed up on a Tuesday and the trees were down and gone and everything cleaned up by Friday afternoon. These guys know their stuff...how ta bring em down easy. They went above and beyond in many ways as well. In my 65 years of hiring services for things I couldn't do myself, this is the only time I've been 100% satisfied. Although I peeked out and watched at times, I still don't know how they got that behemoth elm out of the back yard."

Arborists questions, answered by experts

Carefully pruning small roots no thicker than three inches in diameter won’t harm the tree. However, cutting larger roots may impact the tree's stability and nutrient absorption. It's advisable to consult an arborist or tree care professional to evaluate the root's size, the tree's health, and the potential impact of cutting. Proper tree pruning techniques and timing can minimize damage, but larger root removal may necessitate expert guidance to avoid compromising the tree's overall health and stability.

Service costs depend on several factors, including the system's age, type, and size, as well as the complexity of the repair. Labor costs and whether replacement parts are necessary also play a significant role.

Horticulturist is a broad term for any type of plant and soil expert. An arborist, meanwhile, specializes in all aspects of tree care. You should hire an arborist when you need assistance with tree-related tasks, such as pruning large trees, removing trees, diagnosing a sick tree, or emergency tree services. Horticulturists aren’t qualified to handle those types of tasks.

A tree growing close to a house can pose several risks, but removal isn't always the only or best solution. Potential problems include roots growing into the foundation and causing structural cracks, branches damaging the roof or promoting moss growth, and debris clogging gutters, which can lead to water damage. Trees can also provide access for pests and encourage mold. However, a small, healthy tree may not be a problem, and for larger, established trees, strategic trimming can be a cheaper and more beneficial alternative to removal. It is generally recommended to take action for trees within 10 to 20 feet of your home, especially if they are unhealthy or encroaching. Your best bet is to consult a professional arborist who can assess the specific situation and provide expert advice.

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.
