"We hired Shane and crew to remove two VERY large oaks (over 50') in a tough spot--very near our neighbor's house. They were on time and despite rain, got them down and out in a day and a half, They cleaned up our property and our neighbor's driveway beautifully! Much respect to this profession--a dangerous job for sure but they adhered to safety measures and consideration for our property and everything around them, I would recommend this company to everyone."

"I can't say enough positive things about this group. They were punctual, professional, and showed great attention to detail. And they offered very competitive pricing to boot! They worked all day on my yard, eliminating and removing 2 large oak trees, an extremely tall hickory tree, 9 pine trees, and a "widow-maker" deciduous tree in 100 degree heat. My kids and I tried to bring them food, drinks, chairs, etc... , but we had to be EXTREMELY forceful for them to accept our offering. I'm very tight-fisted with money, but I opted to tip over $400 because of my appreciation and respect for the work they performed."

"I recently hired Lemus Tree Service to take care of some tree-related issues on my waterfront property. Our property has a bunch of really old trees, some are the soft kind, and others are the hard kind. They make our place look amazing, but they also come with some problems. There were these big branches from the old hard trees hanging dangerously over our porch, which was super risky. And we had these tall softwood trees on one side that could have fallen over and hit our house during strong winds. So, I got in touch with Lemus Tree Service, and the owner, Mr. Gelvis Lemus, came over quickly to give us a work outline and price estimate. I was pretty impressed because he didn't just tell us how much it would cost; he also taught us a bunch of cool stuff about taking care of trees. The whole process, from the first quote to when they finished the job, was super professional. The crew explained how they were going to cut down the trees in parts and how they'd clean up afterward. They did a great job, and we felt safe because they knew what they were doing. The service they provided was really good . They trimmed the trees and removed them carefully, so those dangerous branches were gone, and the tall softwood trees were no longer a big risk. The crew knew a lot about trees, paid attention to details, and made sure everything was safe. They left our place clean, which was awesome. The cost of the tree service was reasonable, especially when you consider the potential for significant roof damage that could have been much more expensive. I firmly believe it was a worthwhile investment because they delivered excellent work, maintained a high level of professionalism, and ensured our safety throughout the process. I totally stand by everything I've said in this review. In short, Lemus Tree Service is a trustworthy choice for taking care of your trees. They know their stuff, act professionally, and make sure everything is safe. Plus, their prices are reasonable. So, if you have trees that need some care, especially if they're old and possibly dangerous, Lemus Tree Service is a solid pick."

Arborists questions, answered by experts

The best way is to start controlling tree height long before it grows too large, via careful pruning through the years. But that’s not always possible. If a tree has become too high or too large, use selective pruning to remove the most troublesome branches, one by one, without topping the tree. Gently shaping a tree like this can, over time, correct problems. You can also find growth inhibitors to spray on a tree to stop it from growing too rapidly, but use these sparingly if at all.

Whether you should remove the roots of a dead tree depends on whether they’re damaging nearby areas. For instance, if the roots continue to grow near sidewalks, driveways, or the foundation of your home, they can cause damage. If you want to plant something else in that spot, removing the roots can make it easier for the new tree or plant to grow.

Tree trimming can count as landscaping, depending on how a landscaping business describes its services. Professional tree trimmers are more specialized than landscapers and offer trimming services separately from general landscaping.

When general landscaping companies offer tree trimming, look up the details. They usually mean shaping or seasonal trimming of ornamental trees, which is different from trimming larger trees for health or safety reasons. When possible, look for a licensed expert that specializes in trees and tree health.

Tree removal can be quite expensive, especially for larger projects, but you can use the following tips to help keep costs down:

  • Do the yard cleanup afterward yourself

  • Choose to leave the logs on your property and split them yourself

  • Opt to leave the stump in the ground and tackle stump grinding yourself

  • Pull permits for tree removal, if necessary, to avoid fines

  • Pay to have multiple trees removed at once

  • Remove tree in the late winter or early spring during off-season

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.
