"They were very professional. They provided a good estimate and stuck with it. They called before coming for the job. They came to the job site on time. They went right to work and worked continuously until the job was done. They did an excellent job cleaning up the site. The day before the scheduled, we requested the removal of a smaller tree, which was agreed to after a quick review and added cost. Overall, it was an excellent experience, and we highly recommend Woodchopper's."

"Did a great job in two large willow stumps, followed the roots farther than I expected which was nice. Did a great job cleaning up and leaving the site in good condition. Highly recommend. Was one of the first and fastest to reply when I listed the job on home adviser, very professional. Reasonably priced and did the work more quickly than I thought it could be done."

"Jeremiah came out to give us an estimate which was comparable to another estimate I had received. The reason I decided Jeremiah was right for the job is that he is a certified arborist and actually has a lot of knowledge of trees. He and his crew were professional and friendly. They cleaned up nicely after they were done. They even swept the leaves off of my deck that had fallen there before they arrived. I would hire them again."

Arborists questions, answered by experts

For Bradford pears, damage from storms is common, and if the trunk splits, it can pose a danger to people and surrounding structures. The best thing to do in that instance is to have the tree removed. If there’s only minor damage to the branches, pruning away the damaged parts is the first order of business. You may also want to consult a professional arborist to make sure the tree is healthy.

Although it’s possible, heavy machinery like a crane is necessary for removing an entire tree stump and all. This procedure is extremely costly, time-consuming, and usually unnecessary, as there are plenty of convenient and affordable stump removal options. 

Your best bet, if you want to be sure to remove a tree and its stump efficiently, is to speak with a professional. They’ll be able to walk you through the entire process.

The cost of professional tree trimming averages $460, with a typical range between $200 and $760. However, prices can be as low as $75 or as high as $1,800 depending on several factors. The size and type of the tree are major cost drivers; for example, trimming Crepe Myrtle trees costs an average of $80 to $400, while trimming giant pine trees can range from $200 to $1,800. Other factors that influence the price include the time of year, as services are often more costly in the spring. The tree's accessibility and your location also play a role, as a remote or hard-to-reach tree may increase the cost. Some professionals may offer a discount if you have multiple trees to trim.

Depending on the severity of the damage, a tree might continue healing for years after a split or a break. Saplings can usually bounce back in the spring in one or two seasons, but larger trees might take a few years to regain their former strength. If your tree is showing strong growth and is not dropping limbs, you can consider it healed after the first two seasons.

Generally speaking, you’ll want to avoid flush cuts, which are cuts made as extremely close to the trunk or main branch. These cuts can weaken your tree, lower its natural defense mechanisms, and even cause decay. You’ll also want to avoid tree topping, which is the total removal of the leader and upper main branches of a tree. 

Most pros will advise against either of these methods, which is why hiring a pro is often the best choice when it comes to tree trimming.
