"He came out and checked out our issue. Unfortunately, it was bigger than we thought and he was not able to help, but he was very nice to work with and went above and beyond to help us come to a better understanding."

"Down Right Tree Experts was everything they advertised. They showed up when they said they would, did the job just like they said they would, and when they left my yard was cleaned up. I highly recommend them, and will be calling them back in the future when i need their services again. Great job guys. Thanks"

"Brandon is a skilled, smart electrician. I was impressed with his ability to solve some difficult electrical issues at the house, as well as his diligence. He communicated clearly with me about the work as it progressed. The house is much safer and fully operational now, thanks to Brandon."

"Bradley was able to begin my project the very next day. He was able to cut down a very large tree in an awkward place without damaging the shrubs and garden beds around it. He and his helper (Brandon) were able to complete the project within the day. They carted off the trunks and heaviest boughs and lugged the rest to the curb. They were even understanding and cheerful about coming back when some of the smaller debris had to be moved again (because I wasn't clear about where I wanted it). Their service was prompt, efficient and well-done. I definitely will call them again if the need arises and would recommend them to others."

Arborists questions, answered by experts

There are two types of arborists: certified and consulting. A certified arborist is licensed and equipped to provide tree pruning, planting, fertilizing, monitoring, transplanting, treatment, and removal services. A consulting arborist specializes in tree appraisals, diagnosing problems and recommending treatments for illnesses. However, they will not provide these services themselves. Most consulting arborists are certified arborists who can refer you to a tree service that can administer the correct treatments.

Generally, you’ll want to avoid pruning more than 25% of the tree’s canopy at one time. While pruning your tree is important, it’s possible to do it too often or to go too far. Again, this is why hiring a tree trimming pro to do the work is wise. However, if you do decide to DIY, going slow and trimming gradually is the name of the game.

You can remove a small tree from your yard if there’s space for the tree to fall, you have the right tools and safety equipment, and you follow a clear plan of action. You’ll just want to follow the steps above carefully, and ideally, you will have experience doing similar tasks. If you have any doubts that you can do this project safely, though, you should hire a pro.

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

Dying trees and even dead trees can spread diseases to other living trees. There are many different types of tree diseases, so it’s essential to address the issue as soon as possible to prevent the disease from spreading to other healthy trees. If the tree cannot be saved and is infected, you need to have it removed to protect the other trees on your property.
