Over 20 years of experience in: Pruning, Trimming, Cabling, Reducing, Removals, and Stump Grinding. Fama Tree Service is registered under the State of NJ Board of Tree Experts. We are CAA Certified in: Arboriculture I & II, EHAP/Aerial Rescue, and First Aid & CPR. We are trained in Chain Saw Safety & Chipper Stump Grind Awareness and Electrical Hazard Awareness.

"Between Angie’s List and local resources I got six quotes to remove a 100 yr old 70 foot Norway Maple that was disrupting foundations of our house and of the garage. Most quotes were +/- $200 (except one extreme @ $800 more!!!) End decision was less about the quotes, more about how contractors presented themselves, answered questions, explained how they were going to do the job. Edgar Dominguez owner of Fama Tree Service was first contractor to respond, assess removing the Maple. I asked about potential damage to our garage’s slate roof (what roofers call a ‘glass roof’). He explained how the limbs and trunk would be double-roped for control, then cut & lowered manually. Fama is fully licensed and insured. After he left, I later thought to get OK from my neighbor about cutting/trimming branches of his very large, beautiful Copper Beech over-hanging our driveway & house. I had all subsequent contractors quote the Maple and Beech projects separately. After interviewing/getting quotes from other contractors, I asked Edgar if he could take another look, together with my neighbor. My neighbor is extremely knowledgeable and VERY particular about the trees and landscaping on his excellently maintained property. First: All communication/responses I had with Edgar and Karen at his office were superb! That next afternoon Edgar arrived with Lalo, his foreman to meet us. Second: As a very customer friendly, highly experienced professional, Edgar listened to all my neighbor wanted done. Edgar recommended/explained best approaches - even if it meant not doing anything - to maintain health, balance and appearance for the trees my neighbor needed work on. We both agreed Edgar’s team was the best. Edgar and a double crew arrived on sched. Edgar was onsite entire time, not just ensuring everything was done safely by his team, but working hands-on as hard as everyone else, managing ropes & drops, carrying/feeding cut pieces to the chipper, quartering large hunks of trunk. As our tree removal wound down, the team progressively went over to my neighbor. Entire day was amazing: like watching an acrobatic performance, no motions wasted. The Fama crew of experts are very friendly, entirely professional. My neighbor was very pleased with all the work done on his property, as am I for the care taken removing our tree. By end of day every branch, twig, leaf and sawdust was taken away from both our properties. If you need any tree service done, absolutely recommend you contact Edgar at Fama Tree Service for an estimate."

FAQs for land clearing projects in Union City, NJ

Unfortunately, some plumbing scenarios, like a broken sewer pipe repair, will require excavation to complete the job. Plumbing excavation costs range from $30 to $70 per cubic foot. However, if you need additional trenching, expect to pay an extra $4 to $12 per linear foot. Keep in mind that these costs are on top of the plumbing repair costs, and they don’t account for labor costs. Consult your excavation specialist to determine an accurate estimate for your job.

The average cost for pool excavation is $2,500. This cost can range from $450 to $4,500, depending on the pool shape and size, time of year, and any need to move buried utilities. 

When excavating for your pool, you might have to move existing utilities. You can expect to pay an additional $15 to $25 per linear foot to move gas lines. To move a septic system, it’ll cost an additional $2,000 to $20,000. A pool that is 10 feet by 12 feet averages $450 to excavate, and a 20-foot-by-40-foot pool averages $3,020.

The cost for residential excavation is $3,200 on average, ranging between $50 and $200 per cubic yard. Total costs could range from $500 to $15,000, depending on the project type, yard size, and soil type. 

When a project needs an excavator, the contractor will subcontract one as part of the larger project. If you hire an excavation specialist, you can expect to pay between $40 and $180 per hour. When excavating, if you have soil with excessive rocks or clay deposits, expect an additional cost of $200 to $1,200.

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.

Yes, you will want to confirm that the tree removal company you hire is insured before proceeding with the job. Tree removal can be dangerous work, and it's important to verify that the company carries the proper insurance to cover any onsite accidents or damage.

As you browse our pro listings, take note of the “Angi Approved” badge. Angi Approved businesses meet our standards for certification which include: 

  • The owner, principal, or relevant manager passed a criminal background check

  • Required to have applicable state and local licenses

  • Maintain an average star rating of 3.0 or better on our network, if they have at least one review

  • Paying to advertise their services

  • Meeting any other eligibility criteria required by Angi

Keep in mind licensing is different from certifications. A license is a legal requirement to operate a business, while certifications are voluntary.
