"Prompt response, did an excellent job. Would have them back in a heartbeat for any further work needed. They were the only service company to communicate with me as they said they would Other service companies [landscaping], could take a few lessons from them and maybe be as successful as they are. Thumbs up Robert and crew."

"I had the crew from Universal Arbor Care out yesterday to do tree trimming and they did a fantastic job. They were on time and were very professional in all their work and then did a great job to also do all the clean up. I would highly recommend them."

"I got a call the day I requested a quote. Jose was very quick to schedule a quote too. He came out two days later. He and his team were able to all get it all done the same day! We had a large tree removed from our backyard as well as have a bunch of trees trimmed on the side of our yard and a large tree trimmed in the front. All work was completed within a few hours. Jose also gave us a really good rate for all the work done."

"Steve is pretty amazing and extremely quick to help me get the job done in under 24 hours. I have worked with a lot of individuals, independent contractors, and even some of the large companies. I would have thought I would ever work with some like him as many are on there time schedule or late even as far as never show up as promised. I can absolutely say this that I would never receive timely, quality work and an individual like Steve from Speedy Stump, LLC. If you need help in removing a tree stump, you’ll never regret hiring this gentleman and his company"

"I had a Tiptop come to trim three crab apple trees that had grown too big and I was no longer able to reach them to trim. They were all very friendly and got the job done. They did an excellent job and I would definitely use them again."

"Steve is great to work with! He has been to my home 3 times over the last 4 years for tree removal and trimming. Excellent job at a reasonable price. Everything is cleaned up at the end of the job and typically does the little extras that mean so much. I highly recommend him!"

"Max and Taylor were awesome to work with! They came out to remove a big tree in my front yard and did stump grinding too. The whole crew was super friendly, professional, and got everything done quickly. Their customer service was excellent from start to finish — great communication, fair pricing, and just really nice people to work with. I’d definitely recommend them to anyone needing tree work done! We will be using Big Lake Tree Service again in the future! Thank you."

Arborists questions, answered by experts

Planting trees far enough from your foundation will protect your home from root damage, but if you’re dealing with existing trees, you can still guard against roots. Root barriers form a physical boundary that will prevent roots from encroaching on your foundation and can help save you from expensive foundation repair costs.

Whether you should remove the roots of a dead tree depends on whether they’re damaging nearby areas. For instance, if the roots continue to grow near sidewalks, driveways, or the foundation of your home, they can cause damage. If you want to plant something else in that spot, removing the roots can make it easier for the new tree or plant to grow.

Hiring an arborist or tree surgeon is usually more expensive than a standard tree company, but it is often worth the investment. Arborists have education and certifications that standard companies typically lack, leading to a more professional, expert-level service. Their expertise is particularly valuable for diseased or infested trees, as they can ensure safer removal and help prevent the issue from spreading. Additionally, arborists may be necessary for work near power lines, as uncertified companies are often not permitted to service these trees. If your goal is to preserve the health of your trees, an arborist is the best choice. Their services, such as stump grinding, are also performed with greater expertise to ensure a safe depth that won't cause your lawn to collapse over time.

Hiring an arborist costs around $900 on average, with prices ranging from $250 to $2,500 or more. Some arborists charge an hourly rate, typically between $100 and $350 per hour. The final cost depends on several factors, including the type of work, the number of trees, accessibility, and whether you hire an independent arborist or a larger tree service company. When hiring, you should also consider their experience and insurance coverage.

Below are some estimated costs for common arborist jobs:

  • Small tree removal: $300 to $500

  • Large tree removal: $500 to $2,000 or more

  • Tree health assessment: $150

  • Trimming a small tree: $75 to $200

  • Trimming a large tree: $150 to $400

  • Dealing with invasive species: $150 to $1,000 or more

It depends. Smaller, younger trees take longer to mature, but they're more resilient, their roots don't get as damaged during transplanting, and they recover faster. Plus, they're much more affordable to plant, and it's possible to DIY the planting. 

On the other hand, mature trees produce fruit faster and provide more shade and privacy immediately. Ideally, a small or medium tree is the better choice if you can wait a few years for it to mature. But if you need immediate maturity, a larger tree is the only option.
