"I cannot say enough good about this family owned business. Supporting local businesses is easy when they are honest, reliable, friendly, and great to work with. The work they produce is superior. They were meticulous, and left my property in better shape than they found it. I highly recommend their tree services. Chuck and Dave were a pleasure to work with and their team were respectful, friendly and hard-working. Top-notch company. Bobby in that bucket truck with chainsaw in hand is fearless. I nicknamed him superman. Thank you DB Paulson for a great experience. See you again at tree trimming time."

"Lots of tree companies, but this is one that truly stands out for many reasons. I did my due diligence and got several estimates of course, but Miguel from Grizzly stood out. This is a family company, "Uncle Miguel" and his nephews, and they are the BEST HIRE for tree work. Their tree knowledge, experience with tree removal, stump grinding, and Miguel's artistic commitment to excellence with pruning, is unparalleled. From the very start, Miguel was incredibly friendly, professional, and, offered a quick estimate and a fair price. The crew arrived right on schedule, worked efficiently like a well-oiled machine, and took down our trees safely without causing any damage to the surrounding yard. The crew was hardworking and had a contagious positive and cheerful attitude from start to finish. Each crew member shook our hand goodbye. This was a big 2 day job and the crew was fantastic to work with. Best of all, they did a flawless cleanup, leaving the property immaculate."

Arborists FAQs, answered by experts

You should avoid cutting off the top of mature cherry trees. This process is called tree topping, and it’s not recommended for cherry trees—or any trees, for that matter. Tree topping removes between one-third to half of the length of the tree trunk, resulting in structurally unsound, fruitless suckers. The only exception is for saplings. Young pie, sour, and tart cherry trees that are over 30 inches tall in the fall or winter before the tree blooms can benefit from heading cuts.

In some states and municipalities, you will need a permit to remove a tree on your property. In many cases where permits are required, a tree must reach a maximum height before a permit is required to remove it. You can either ask your local building department or a tree removal professional if you’ll need a permit. If you do, you can expect to pay between $50 and $150 for the permit alone. Your tree removal company should pull the permit for you and include the permit fee in your total.

No, you cannot plant a tree above a gas line. Tree roots grow and spread over time and can sometimes dent, crack, or penetrate a gas line. Those same roots may also cause accessibility problems for maintenance or repairs. You can generally plant vegetation with non-invasive root systems, low-growing vegetation, and flower beds near gas lines. 

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

The cost of trees varies massively based on the size of the tree and the species. A small Colorado spruce can cost as little as $30, but a golden rain tree of the same size can cost $90. Large trees can cost $1,500 or more, depending on their species and height.
