"Excellent service, dedicated professionals with high quality equipment. They had a busy agenda and still made time to come to our property to solve our need to remove two dead trees and trim other tree branches extending to our property for safety. Polite crew and they also cut some of the wood per our request showing their patience and customer friendly attitude. They arrived on time as scheduled with their machinery and transportation ready, cleaned up all debris. At every step they took precautions and ensure that there was no damage to the property while the work was being performed. We highly recommend Sami’s Landscape and Tree service to other clients."

"David was very prompt in calling me and completed the work a day after I contacted him. He showed up to my house during the promised time. I had 2 large trees taken down, 1 stump ground, and other various trees trimmed and all the work was very well done. I especially appreciated the care they took in ensuring that the work did not damage other landscaping or my home. David completed the stump grinding a few days after the initial work and he again showed up exactly on time and the work was completed quickly. I did not shop around for best price as the price quoted was fair for the scope of work based on my prior experience with tree services. I would recommend using this service and I plan to use them again for future projects."

"Amazing Tree Services, owner Mauricio and his entire crew are exceptional at what they do, very professional, knowledgeable, get the job done fast, clean up and have your property looking cleaner than when they started, and the most important thing great prices, he will most likely beat anyone's price in the business. Just a pleasure to do business with, I have already had 3 trees removed and will be using them once again for my 4th and final tree in the very near future, kudos to Mauricio and his workers for another job well done."

"I am so impressed with Riccardi Tree Service. I initially reached out on of 5/22/18 and spoke with a gentleman who said he would have his son call me back to schedule an estimate. Frank called me back super quickly (5 minutes) and came out for an estimate on 5/25/18. He called me the night before my tree removal, 5/30/18, to tell me he'd be here between 12pm and 2pm the following day. On the day of removal, 5/31/18, Frank called to say he was running late, but would still be removing my trees as promised. Frank and crew arrived at 5:30pm and removed my trees quickly, and without any fuss. He was professional, kind, friendly, and concerned about the job, as were his crew. I would hire them again in a heartbeat! Don't hesitate to hire Riccardi."

Tree Service questions, answered by experts

Stump grinding consists of removing the visible part of the stump, but the roots remain intact. Depending on the tree and root system, the roots may still grow after stump grinding. If you are concerned about root growth and damage, you may want to consider having a stump removed completely.

If you’re buying a small tree with lots of room to grow, expect to pay around $100 to $200 for a potted version. But if you’re buying a larger tree—say one over 10 feet—prices rise, starting in the $500 to $600 range and increasing quickly from there. Keep in mind that paying for professional palm tree planting or transplanting services will increase the cost.

Whether tree roots will continue to grow after a tree has been cut down depends on the species. Some tree roots will eventually die because they can no longer get nutrients through photosynthesis. However, other species that reproduce through root sprouts can continue to grow and produce new sprouts for seven years or more. For example, the roots of elms, ficus, and willows tend to regrow aggressively, while the roots of pines, oaks, and maples will typically die. To determine if a root system is still active, look for new sprouts on the old trunk, stump, or any exposed roots.

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

Generally, if your neighbor’s tree hangs over your yard, you can legally trim overhanging branches. Keep in mind that you cannot cross your property line to cut the trees, and if you damage the tree by trimming it, your neighbor could sue you. Depending on the type of tree and value, this could mean dishing out two to three times the value of the tree.

It’s worth noting that the specifics of this type of tree maintenance and the guidelines around it may vary by location. Do your research and, most importantly, consult with your neighbor.
