"Great experience having this company cut down our tree. They not only cut the tree but left the area like one hadn’t even been there. From the first time we communicated with Oscar until the job was complete, he was very prompt to respond. Would highly recommend this company for services."

"I have been using Franciscoâ s services for several months. He takes care of my airbnb and has done a lot of work at my main home, cleaned gutters, cut down several dead trees, ground down all the stumps and overall yard maintenance. He and his employees do excellent work and are very polite. I highly recommend him, you will not be disappointed!"

"Brandon, Scott and crew did an absolutely great job on my project. I had them remove stumps, level and grade for a garage. They were great to work with, kept me informed and finished up on time. They were knowledgeable, professional and honest. I heartily recommend them for your dirtwork. Will call upon them again before starting any other dirt work."

"Great experience with Cogdill Landscaping. They installed a block border around front garden beds and three bushes. The border looks great! They did a lovely job with curves in the border at each end. They were reliable, pleasant, and quite reasonable in price."

"Guillermo and his crew did a wonderful job completing the three projects I needed done. They expertly fixed my sliding glass doors on 2 of my bathtubs. They also power washed my entire downstairs patio that had accumulated a ton of pollen/mold over the years. My patio was sparkling and ready for guests afterwards. They also fixed my front screen door so it could close properly. I would hire this business in a New York second if I ever needed repair work done again in my home."

Arborists questions, answered by experts

Tree removal costs typically don’t include stump removal, as that technically falls into a different service. The company you hire may offer the service for an additional fee; ask them if they offer it to ensure you get the best tree stump removal costs possible.

If your palm tree has spots on the leaves, rotting buds, or is beginning to turn yellow, then you have a sick tree on your hands. You should contact a palm tree specialist to identify the problem and help treat the tree if possible. Preventing diseases and pests is key to a healthy palm tree, and it's essential to take action as soon as possible if your tree is showing signs of being sick.

Most experts recommend removing a tree that has sustained more than 25% loss in the limbs, trunk, or circumference of the bark. Doing an initial trimming of damaged and dangling branches, but then waiting a few days of monitoring to decide how much more you might need to cut can help you better assess the total damage to the tree. However, consulting a tree maintenance pro to make this determination the best course of action before removing a tree.

Leaf removal costs between $400 and $1,000 per acre on average. Nationally, the cost of leaf removal averages about $350. Cost factors for this project include lawn size, leaf removal method, tree density, location, and the time required to do the job. If your lawn removal service charges based on lawn size, you can expect to pay $0.02 to $0.10 per square foot.

Getting a tree pro with the right experience can be the difference between your transplanted tree surviving or not. When hiring a local tree transplanting and removal service, follow up on references, check their portfolio, ask for a breakdown of the costs, and get proof of liability and workers’ compensation insurance. 

Also, look for companies certified by the International Society of Arboriculture or registered with the Tree Care Industry Association and make sure they have an appropriate state or city license.
