"I trusted this company to do a major job in our yard in March; grinding up tree roots, bringing in top soil, leveling the yard, and spraying hydroseed with Bermuda grass ? with the hope of finally having a nice, healthy lawn. I spent almost $5,000 on this project, and unfortunately the results have been extremely disappointing. A couple days after they finished the job, we had a very heavy rain that caused all of the hydroseed to wash away. I was able to get them to come back a couple weeks later and re-hydroseed. I thought it would be great from here. I was wrong. I followed the instructions I was given and watered the grass twice daily, but the hydroseed mulch from the second spray never broke down, which caused moss/fungus to grow and ultimately killed off all of the grass. Instead of the lush Bermuda lawn I was promised, I was left with bare dirt and invasive crabgrass taking over. I ended up having to rake up the failed hydroseed myself, hire another company to aerate the soil,"

Welcome to C & C Home Services

"He quoted one price, then after he arrived and started to do trimming which was not being done as was originally discussed. Then I came out to ask why he wasn't trimming as per the original quote he said it would be more money, to the tune of 30% more! I didn't have much choice at the time. My advice, get the detailed quote in writing..."

Leaf Removal questions, answered by experts

  1. If there are no online reviews, ask them for referrals. If a tree removal company is reputable, you won't be their first client. It's perfectly acceptable to ask for references on your initial call, and if a removal company won't provide referrals, it's time to move on.

  2. Find out what equipment they use. Some types of tree removal equipment are better than others, and a removal company might need special tools to get your particular job done. On your first conversation with a prospective removal company, make sure that you clearly express the nature of the job you want accomplished and receive assurances that the company has the proper equipment. 

  3. Consider all of the costs. Always ask for an estimate up-front. Inquire about the job itself and any potential hidden fees that you might not be aware of.

Ask for referrals—companies can (and often do) pay marketing firms for positive online reviews, especially newer or less-established ones. It's perfectly acceptable to request references during your initial call. If a removal company refuses to provide referrals, it's time to move on. Find out what equipment they use. Some types of tree removal equipment are more effective than others, and a removal company may need specialized tools for your specific job. Be aware that companies might use unnecessary equipment to complete jobs faster, which can come at the expense of aesthetic appeal (e.g., tracked equipment can leave deep ruts in lawns, wood chippers are extremely loud, large trucks and trailers may block neighborhood traffic, and stabilizing/landing gear on heavy equipment can crack driveways, sidewalks, and crush underground infrastructure). In your first conversation with a prospective removal company, make sure to clearly express the nature of the job and receive assurances that they have the proper equipment. Consider all costs. Always ask for an estimate upfront and inquire about the job itself, as well as any potential hidden fees you might not be aware of.

On average, removing a tree costs around $750, but you can expect to pay between $200 to $2,000. Factors that impact the overall cost include the number of trees you’re having removed, their height, the diameter of their trunks, permits needed, and the tree’s accessibility. You’ll pay more if the tree is in a hard-to-reach area or dangerous location, like close to power lines.

Factors that impact the overall cost include the number of trees being removed, their height, species, the number and size of limbs, the diameter of the trunks, permits required, accessibility, nearby hazards and structures (e.g., septic tanks, sheds, garages, decks, fences), and additional services (e.g., debris removal, stump grinding, or the need for heavy equipment). Expect higher costs for larger trees, hardwoods, difficult-to-reach areas, the use of cranes or bucket lifts, dangerous locations, hauling large amounts of heavy debris, and stump grinding. Since there is no industry-standard metric for estimating tree removal services, it is generally recommended to request quotes from multiple providers. Customers should also inquire about the strategy and equipment each company plans to use and why any heavy equipment is necessary. Remember, cheaper doesn’t always mean better.

Vinegar is another household item that can kill a tree stump over time. Vinegar’s acetic acid works to dissolve the stump’s outer layer through its carbohydrates. However, this compound alone is not enough to kill a large tree stump or one in a hard-to-reach spot. Other methods like stump grinding and applying herbicides work much faster and more effectively than using vinegar.

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.

Once you confirm a tree is dead, you should remove it. Dead trees eventually fall, and larger trees in particular can cause damage to rooftops, fencing, flowers, and other objects. As we mentioned, letting decayed wood stay in your yard also invites risks to the surrounding landscaping and vegetation.
