"They did an awesome job! I would definitely hire them again. The entire crew was friendly and respectful! They got the job done quickly and did a great job cleaning up my yard once the trees were down. Price was great too! I contacted several tree companies to get quotes before hiring them. Save yourself a lot of time and call them first. Highly recommend!"

"Very prompt with estimates and on time to do the job1 Did a terrific job removing a large tree stump in our back yard, a tree stump, from a tree that came down in Ida, in the front of our house and a neighbor's tree stump, that had grown under our fence and foundation, from the side of our house. Mr. Travis also removed the fence and filled the stump holes with dirt. Very professional, Would definitely use them again."

"I had a small stump from an orange tree that needed to be removed. I called Hank's stump, grinding, and he came out and removed the stump. And it is perfect, and he did a very extremely excellent job. And if you ever needed a stump removed, make sure you call hank's stump grinding.Because he is an excellent businessman and does the job as perfect as possible."

"The job was to trim the trees hanging over the roof of my shed and back fence. Chris called me quickly after listing my request for service. It was a small job but Chris treated it like it was important. The price was great. Chris's crew was friendly, professional, quick and clean. I would highly recommend Crescent City Tree, LLC. I will definitely use them again in the future."

"Paige Freeman got back to me promptly to arrange a viewing of my property.
Despite the rain he came out to give me a quote on full yard (jungle) clean up.
I was very happy with his quote compared to another local neighborhood landscaping company trying to charge me 4x as much.
Freeman's men came out on a Monday & everything was finished when I got off work - all brush offsite.
Paige looked over everything with me & even came back later in the week to cut some vines I pointed out didn't get all trimmed.
My one regret is I didn't cover my fountain as I think a blower was used & I have lots of leaves/twigs in my fountain now.
Be clear these guys are (Arborists)TREE trimmers - no weeds were cut as a landscape company would do.
I was very please with Paige's communication & speedy service. My jungle is gone!

Arborists questions, answered by experts

Generally, homeowners do not need permission to cut down a tree on their own private property, but there are several exceptions where a permit may be required. You might need a permit if the tree is particularly large, old, or a protected species, such as a heritage tree. Trees located near public property or power lines can also be subject to special rules. Additionally, many local governments and homeowners associations (HOAs) have regulations controlling which trees can be removed to manage an area's appearance or prevent the spread of invasive species. To avoid hefty fines, it is crucial to check with your local government and HOA to determine if a permit is needed before you begin.

Homeowners are usually not responsible for trees that fall on power lines. Power companies usually have utility easements around power lines, which give them the responsibility to maintain any trees within about 15 to 20 feet of the lines.

Tree removal can be quite expensive, especially for larger projects, but you can use the following tips to help keep costs down:

  • Do the yard cleanup afterward yourself

  • Choose to leave the logs on your property and split them yourself

  • Opt to leave the stump in the ground and tackle stump grinding yourself

  • Pull permits for tree removal, if necessary, to avoid fines

  • Pay to have multiple trees removed at once

  • Remove tree in the late winter or early spring during off-season

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.

Sometimes, knowing when you need tree-trimming services is straightforward, and other times, you have to do some investigating. Some tell-tale signs that you should have your tree trimmed include:

  • A poorly-formed tree with unruly branches, which makes the tree appear odd-shaped. 

  • A tree with tall or large branches that interfere with power lines or your home’s exterior.

  • A tree that provides too much shade in the yard due to branch overgrowth.
