We specialize in Tree Removal, Tree Trimming, Stump Grinding, Brush Clearing, Land Clearing, Tree Pruning, Hedge Trimming, and Gutter Cleaning. When necessary, we remove large or dangerous trees using a crane or a bucket truck. We also use technical rigging and climbing. In addition, during the winter, we can clear ice dams and snow from roofs/decks/etc.

"Steve and his team were great from beginning to the end. Steve worked me into his schedule as I had a fast approaching deadline, many other companies wouldn't even call back or even consider trying to get me in earlier in there schedule. I had a 80-90 foot pine tree between 2 houses, a garage, and a vinyl fence possibly the most worrisome case for most home owners. When Steve came and gave the estimate, he walked me through where his crane was going to be placed with its outriggers and how the removal was going to be performed. When it came to the removal, his crew was clean cut, professional and organized. They removed the tree without incident, and when they left you would have had no idea they were just there with a crew, equipment and a 135 foot crane. To me the price didn't matter since Steve took such great care of the removal, I could probably have had it removed a little cheaper but how smooth the transaction was with Pridemark I had no issue at all paying what I paid. Also all day I had neighbors coming over saying they watched the whole removal and were blown away by how great of a job Pridemark did. They will be the ones I call for all my tree issues and the only tree removal contact I now have saved in my phone."

FAQs for land clearing projects in Root, NY

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.
