"Nick and his crew are true professionals. They completed the task of cutting down multiple pine trees on our property in a timely and safe manner. Nick's price is very reasonable and he is very dedicated and dependable. I feel Nick and his crew went the extra mile to make sure the area was left clean and orderly. My wife and I are more than satisfied with the job that was completed. We highly recommend Nick and plan on calling him for future projects."

Customers say: True professional

"Where do I start? These guys did a storm clean up for my neighbor, and as I watched I was impressed. The level of skill and professionalism they have is unmatched. So naturally when I need tree work I reached out. The woman on the phone remembered who I was and where I lived which was a good feeling, to feel important. I scheduled the tree removal for about 4-5 days from the call. They showed up right on time, and idk if they even took a break. The tree was down, chopped and stacked is what seemed like hours. Everything was cleaned up and they left. I'll definitely be calling back if I ever need tree work. You shouldn't hesitate either."

"Eric and his men were very professional and friendly. They cut down close to 30 large pine trees, some were near structures. All work was completed in a safe and timely manner. The price was very reasonable. I highly recommend this company and intend to have them comeback to remove more trees in the future. Thank You"

Tree Service FAQs, answered by experts

Most tree surgeons cost around $100 per hour or between $70 and $200 per hour for their services. You might get flat fees for more straightforward services, like a tree assessment, tree removal, stump grinding, and one-off treatments, but many times, treatments for tree diseases or pests will be charged based on an hourly rate or a per-visit rate. Since the cost of a tree surgeon can vary widely, it’s best to speak with an arborist near you to get an idea of what your particular issue will cost to correct.

Generally, you should prune around 20% of an apple tree’s growth—and never more than 30%. This means that if you have a severely overgrown tree, it can take a few seasons to prune it back enough to produce the healthiest fruit. 

If you’re dealing with a newly planted or juvenile tree, hold off on pruning beyond the initial shaping. Wait at least a couple of seasons into fruit production since pruning can increase the number of water sprouts and unproductive foliage.

For trimming trees, your best tool is a pair of pruning shears or loppers. Both options work best for branches that are under 3 inches in diameter. Trimming trees with a larger diameter may require a robust tool like a small chainsaw or a handsaw, so take into account your tree’s diameter when deciding between tools.

Transporting a fully-grown tree requires heavy equipment, typically specialized for the task. A tree spade is a truck-mounted tool that removes the tree from the ground in one location, transports it, and places it in a new hole in a new location. A combination of mechanized shovels and lifts is necessary to move very large trees, and the exact tools often depend on location and the surrounding area.

You may wonder whether tree removal is tax deductible: Tree removal is not tax-deductible for homeowners unless it's related to a federally declared disaster. In that case, the cost may qualify as a casualty loss. However, if you own a commercial property, like a rental home, tree removal could be deductible if it's necessary for safety, maintenance, or part of a larger capital improvement project, and you must hire a professional tree removal service and keep documentation. Always consult a tax professional beforehand to see if you qualify.
