"Very well. Baker tree gave me a competitive quote and addressed the problem intelligently. My large maple tree was trimmed to keep it balanced and erect and removed large branches that were the main problem. The crew arrived on time in the morning and finished around noon. the crew also trimmed three other trees and removed a very large photinia bush (about 30 feet high) and removed the stump from the photinia bush."

"Jose and his crew took down a huge 200+ year old tree on our property. They did an excellent job! They are professional experts and we will most definitely call them again to trim and/or remove the other old trees that need attention. Jose was quick to answer our call and worked with our schedule. We highly recommend MW Tree Service!"

"I did a search for a group of trash trees to be removed. Kevin came out the day after he contacted me. Gave me a great quote. A bunch of weed trees growing among a load of vines. I said I want it all gone! They removed every tree, the vines, and cleaned up. I need to count, 10+, two days of work very reasonable. Then I mentioned the dead boats and cars......gone! I am thrilled with their professionalism, care, making sure all i asked for was taken care of. You won't be disappointed using this company."

"Excellent Work. First-Rate Guys on the team. Very careful not to harm the yard. I had no experience with tree work, so was a little surprised by how expensive it can be. Their proposal was fairly priced. I could have paid more (and can't imagine getting better results)...and I could have paid less (but can't imagine I'd have gotten 5 star work like they did). Highly Recommend."

"I had 4 large dead trees removed from around my house. They were prompt to come give me an estimate and were out the following week. They did an excellent job taking down the trees and cleaning up the mess. The offered stump removal for a separate fee but I have not done that yet."

"Very quick response and professional service for a difficult tree and branch removal with respect to trees near the house. I was so pleased with their work that I hired them for an additional job that involved a large tree removal and a lot of brush removal and clearing. Their prices are very fair."

Tree Service questions, answered by experts

The ideal depth of a tree notch depends on the tree, but it should usually be between 20% and 25% of the tree’s depth. However, if the tree is leaning towards the direction of the notch, it can be cut more shallowly—at as little as 10% of the depth. When the tree is leaning away from the direction it needs to be felled, you can cut deeper, closer to 30%.

You can start your search for a reputable arborist online by looking for professionals who hold the proper licensing and are fully insured. Next, read through some online reviews to see what kind of service the expert brings to the table, and confirm that they don’t have a history of complaints with the Better Business Bureau. Finally, you can ask the professional for a list of references and then call them to ask questions about the service, professionalism, value, and more that the expert brings to the table.

If a disease has attacked and destroyed the roots, then the tree may fall over as soon as it has died or while part of it is still alive. Trees that die with their roots left in place tend to stay standing for much longer, but those roots will decay eventually, allowing gravity to do the rest.

Local tree removal prices range from $200 to $2,000 overall, but vary depending on:

  • Local cost of labor and supplies

  • Accessibility of the tree

  • Local laws regarding who is allowed to remove the tree

  • The species of the tree (softer woods are often easier to remove)

  • Local seasonal discounts for the off-season

If tree branches cross well into your property line, in many cases, these branches become part of your property, and you can trim them up until your neighbor’s property line. However, this issue will vary based on local ordinances, so you should do your research before making any decisions. Better yet, speak with your neighbor about how to handle any tree issues. 

If you don’t mind the branches, you can leave them be, but if they’re becoming a hazard, it’s definitely worth having a conversation.
