"I spoke to the owner on Monday, he came and gave me an estimate on Tuesday and cut the tree down on Saturday. His team was very polite and very professional. The tree that had them remove was old, large, rotting and leaning. It was dangerous. I couldn't let my children play in the yard in fear of the dead branches that periodically dropped of of that tree. They did a great cleanup job afterwards. I plan on having them take down another even larger tree in my front yard in the spring. Thank you Woodchuck Tree Service."

"Jason's crew was very professional and quick. They took down three trees in 3-1/2 hours, including clean-up. They were respectful of my property and took great care. I would highly recommend them!"

"Max, the owner, personally came to the house and inspected what needed to be recovered. We spent time discussing problem areas and on how they will proceed, placement of equipment, removal and clean up. The bid was very reasonable, and on the day the work took place; they were 15 minuteâ s earlier than expected, when over the procedure once more and got to work. Within about 3 hours all the trees were down, limbs and stumpâ s removed. The crew worked safely and was careful of the next door neighborâ s home. I would highly recommend this company if you need trees removed. I have already rescheduled Kuston Tree Services to remove a dead Ash tree."

Tree Service questions, answered by experts

In the short term, you’ll have a lot of fallen trees to deal with. Tree removal services costs typically start at $200 per tree and increase based on species and size. Then, you’ll have to deal with the loss of trees: That means a loss of shade and a greater risk of rain runoff and erosion. Also, you’ll miss out on the health and aesthetic benefits of having trees on your property, which could even affect the resale value of your home.

That being said, cutting down a tree it’s not always a bad idea. Trees growing too close to rooftops can present fire hazards or debris problems. You may need to remove diseased or dying trees to prevent future issues.

The ideal depth of a tree notch depends on the tree, but it should usually be between 20% and 25% of the tree’s depth. However, if the tree is leaning towards the direction of the notch, it can be cut more shallowly—at as little as 10% of the depth. When the tree is leaning away from the direction it needs to be felled, you can cut deeper, closer to 30%.

The safest way to cut down a tree is to make sure you’re completely prepared and have done all the necessary safety checks, including double-checking your equipment is in good working order, you have plenty of clearance to fell the tree, you’re wearing all the safety gear, and you have a partner to help you (who should also be wearing safety gear). 

Trees naturally want to grow upward, so one may straighten all by itself, though this only comes into play when a tree is leaning just a small amount. For trees growing into an awkward position or those leaning heavily in one direction, the above steps are necessary to ensure the tree gets back on the right path. This also holds true for trees planted in a spot with unstable soil.

The best tools for tree removal include a chainsaw for large trees, an ax for notching and cutting down small trees, and a wedge to help control the direction a tree falls in. A hatchet can be useful for very small trees, but won’t be effective for medium to large trees.
