"Great. Their initial time frame was long (they were scheduling up to two months out), but I mentioned I was hoping for sooner. When, four weeks in, they had a sudden opening, due to a job in my neighborhood finishing early, they called to arrange and were there within an hour. Late notice meant I could not be home, but the arborist reassured me by speaking with me on the phone. The tree pruning was smart and sensitive. When I expressed some disappointment with underprunung on a big shrub, the arborist arranged to come back to fix it the following week. Super responsive, willing to explain recommendations."

"A very bad storm struck our city and blew down a lot of trees all over the county.  I had 3 trees down and one
teetering dangerously over our house.  My husband was out of town.  I immediately started calling tree services from the
yellow pages and let them know my dilemma.  I was having to just leave messages at each of them.  "Reach's" owner called me back quickly and said that he, personally, would come over right away to assess the situation.  He agreed with me that this large limb needed to be removed quickly before someone, or my house, was hurt.  He quickly started working on it himself while he was waiting for the rest of his crew to help.  They ended up doing some other tree trimming while they were at it.  I think they got another 5-6 jobs from people watching and wanting them to do their yards too.  Everyone that used them were extremely happy!

"A&T responded to my initial request quickly. They provided a very reasonable quote to clear branches and cut down a tree that was nearby power lines and buildings on the property. They worked efficiently and cleanly. Professional and friendly; a pleasure to work with; I recommend their services."

"My tree is very pretty and I like the way they did it. I think I paid a bit more than I planned, but everyone from Warner's is so considerate and easy to work with---it's been well worth it. Excellent service! I definitely want them again next year."

"

I called and he came out and give estimate. We called him back set date for removal. They came right on time. Did what we wanted done at the price he said, Did a nice job and did it right. We will hire him back when we need more tree work  done. He recycles all the wood and wood chips. Very nice and easy person to deal with. He is a pro, knows what he is doing so no worries about damage to house and barn.

"Pete and the team from Xtreme Tree did a great job removing a dead tree on my property and trimming another that had a lot of dead branches. The team was in and out in less than an hour and left my front yard looking great! I had several companies come out to give me a bid and Xtreme Tree quoted me the best price and was available soonest to do the work."

Arborists questions, answered by experts

There are two types of arborists: certified and consulting. A certified arborist is licensed and equipped to provide tree pruning, planting, fertilizing, monitoring, transplanting, treatment, and removal services. A consulting arborist specializes in tree appraisals, diagnosing problems and recommending treatments for illnesses. However, they will not provide these services themselves. Most consulting arborists are certified arborists who can refer you to a tree service that can administer the correct treatments.

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

A few signs a tree may be dead is if the leaves are dead and there are no signs of new blooms. You can also perform a scratch test on some of the branches to check the condition of the cambium layer beneath the bark.

If it is green, it is still alive, but if several are dry, brittle, and brown, the tree may be dying or dead. Always consult an arborist before assuming your tree is dead because you may be able to save it.

Since overwatering can harm mature trees just as much as a lack of water, it’s important to know the signs of an overwatered tree. If your tree’s leaves are yellowing, wilting, or dropping leaves, it’s likely that you’re overwatering. Other common signs include rotting, fungi, soggy soil, soft or peeling bark, falling leaves, and brittle roots. 

If you realize that you’ve been overwatering your mature tree, stop watering and give the soil time to dry out. Then moving forward, increase time between watering sessions. 

Most tree surgeons cost around $100 per hour or between $70 and $200 per hour for their services. You might get flat fees for more straightforward services, like a tree assessment, tree removal, stump grinding, and one-off treatments, but many times, treatments for tree diseases or pests will be charged based on an hourly rate or a per-visit rate. Since the cost of a tree surgeon can vary widely, it’s best to speak with an arborist near you to get an idea of what your particular issue will cost to correct.
