"Dan was very knowledgeable about trees and answered all of my questions about the removal and replacement of a tree. He provided an estimate and arrived the next day to remove a tree. His team did amazing with clean up and they were all very nice and helpful. Will be using their services again. Would highly recommend."
"I've had this company do a number of jobs for me such as trim the bushes, blow the leaves from my yard, and removed a large branch that fell from my tree. Everything is cleaned up with no debris left behind. They are always polite and positive. The best parts are when he gives you a quote it's honest and it doesn't cost more. Also, he is on time every time. That in its own right says a lot about this company."
"They arrived within an hour I would guess, which I would call prompt service. Seemed to share medical concern if I would need supplies or to get out. Genuine courteous. And the price was as quoted over the phone. Thank you. I would hire them again."
I am a lineman just looking to make some extra money on the side. I know trimming trees are expensive so I plan on giving a fair price won’t be able to cut anything done too big but I’ll try my best.
"Evan s Tree Service did an outstanding job trimming my trees and removing my hollies at a reasonable price. They were courteous and professional. I highly recommend them!"
"I had a big tree that needed cut and hauled off. It was there when I left for work and everything was cleaned up and gone when I got home. Very pleased with the work that was done."
"It’s in their name “RELIABLE”!
We were able to get multiple estimates and made the BEST choice. They were very reliable, and went beyond our expectations with the cleanup. All tress were removed as agreed upon. We are very pleased.
We would recommend them to anyone!!"
Cutting down a tree next to power lines is never a DIY job, and it’s a good idea to contact your utility company first. In most cases, the utility company will need to take care of any tree problems within 10 to 15 feet of power lines. If you want to remove the tree for aesthetic reasons, hire a pro to do the job. Trying to cut trees near power lines yourself can create many safety hazards, and you could be liable if you inadvertently cause damage to electrical equipment.
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.

When hiring, you should also consider their experience and insurance coverage.

Small tree removal: $300 to $500
Large tree removal: $500 to $2,000 or more
Tree health assessment: $150

Firewood tends to be cheaper during the spring and summer. When the demand for firewood is lower during these seasons, many firewood companies offer lower prices and added discounts. In addition, the supply of firewood is typically higher in these months, meaning the quality is typically higher as well.
Often, it’s the homeowner’s responsibility to handle the aftermath when a neighbor’s tree falls on their property. But if a tree has been obviously dead for a significant period of time and caused damage when it fell, a case can be made that the owner should have removed it, especially if the neighbor wrote you a letter about the tree or asked you to take it down. This can be grounds for a successful lawsuit in claims court and is a good reason to always pay attention to your trees and remove dead trees before they fall.
If you’re planning on keeping the tree, unless the roots are invasive, there’s no need to remove them, as doing so can cause damage to the tree. If the tree has been cut down and the stump and roots are left, grinding and removing the stump can cause root decay for some species. For other species, the stump and roots will need to be removed to prevent pests, disease, and possible tree regrowth.
