"If you're looking for tree removal service, there is no need to look any further than Linger's Lumberjacks. I had estimates from three major tree companies, expecting a variety of price quotes, but they were all identical. I went with Linger's because they seemed to be the most responsive, and because of the great reviews they have on Angies List. I'm really glad I did. Linger's said they would do the job in three weeks, but they had it completed in two. The specific job was to take down four large dead trees (including a difficult situation of one partially fallen tree resting on top of another), plus trim a few other trees to below the power lines. They did part of the work on one day, and then came out about a week later with a different crew to complete the job. Both crews were professional, very competent, and committed to me being happy with the finished project. The only small glitch was my fault. When they were done, they asked me to look at the job to be sure everything was done correctly and to my satisfaction. I looked without actually walking into the woods, and didn't realize that two of the trees that I thought were going to be taken all the way to the ground were only taken below the power lines. There is no doubt they would have taken them all the way to the ground had I asked them to, and as long as they are no longer a danger to taking out my power lines, it really doesn't matter one bit. Like I said, that was my fault, not theirs, and even with that, I feel like they did way, way more than what I was expecting, and more than the other two companies said they would do for the same price. While they were here, two of my neighbors asked them to take a tree down for them, and they did that as soon as they were done with my job. Both of the neighbors said they were really happy with the job they did. Like I said, these guys are great, their service is exceptional, and next time I need work done, I won't even bother calling anyone else, I going right to Linger's Lumberjacks. You should too."

"Last winter my arborvitae hedge was badly damaged by heavy snow. This week Cory from Set Apart Tree service carefully pruned and trimmed it. Within one hour I was pleased to see it beginning to look attractive again. Using pruners and loppers (no chainsaw) he removed heavily damaged branches and lightened drooping branches so they could stand straight again. The hedge is now airy and natural, still high enough to provide privacy, and healthy enough to regain the strength needed to withstand the snow next winter. I have a garden growing alongside the hedge, planted with many perennial and annual plants. Cory was able to work without damaging them! I would use Set Apart Tree Service again."

"Louis responded promptly to my message to have a tree trimmed and a large lilac bush removed. He gave me a quote for half of what another company quoted .He came the following week as promised and did an excellent job. He cleaned up the yard and hauled everything away.I would definitely hire him again and highly recommend him"

"Travis (Kustom Trim Tree Service) was the first to respond by actually stopping by the house to see the project. After an onsite review of the project and brief discussion we were sold by his confidence and assurance that he had the man power and right equipment to get the job done safely. As tree limbs and debris fell, the ground crew cleaned up the yard as needed. The project was completed in a timely and safe manner. Travis made it look easy but this was a very big task as some trees were almost 100 feet high. We are very happy and would hire him again if needed in the future."

"I will never use another tree service! We had our tree trimmed and lots of shrubs removed from along our drive way. This company also removed a jungle from our back yard and replaced it with the most beautiful fire pit. We are beyond happy with the work that was done and all for a reasonable price. I highly recommend using S.O.S. for your yard needs."

Tree Service questions, answered by experts

In Akron, homeowners may encounter extra charges for permit applications, stump grinding, or large debris removal, which are often not included in basic tree removal quotes. If the work is near power lines, coordination with Akron's utility companies may result in additional fees. Emergency tree service after storms can also incur surcharges, so it's wise to clarify all potential costs with your arborist and confirm what's included in your contract.

Helpful?

For tree service in Akron, professional crews should follow OSHA safety standards and use proper protective equipment. Homeowners should keep children and pets indoors and stay clear of the work zone. If trees are near power lines, only qualified arborists approved by the City of Akron or local utilities should perform the work. Always confirm your contractor carries liability insurance to protect against accidents or property damage.

Helpful?

When hiring for tree service in Akron, always verify the company's insurance and certifications, such as those recognized by the Ohio Department of Natural Resources. Ask for local references and ensure the arborist is familiar with Akron's common tree diseases, like oak wilt. Request detailed, written estimates that specify whether stump grinding and debris cleanup are included, and confirm the contractor complies with City of Akron regulations.

Helpful?

In Akron, frequent mistakes include attempting DIY tree removal, hiring unlicensed or uninsured contractors, and neglecting to obtain required permits from the City of Akron. Over-pruning or topping trees can lead to long-term health issues, especially for species susceptible to local diseases. Homeowners should also avoid scheduling tree trimming during peak pest seasons and always verify the arborist's credentials with the Ohio Department of Natural Resources.

Helpful?

In Akron, the City of Akron Public Works Department requires a permit for removing trees over six inches in diameter or those near public rights-of-way. Special approval may be needed for heritage or protected species. It's recommended to consult the City of Akron's Urban Forestry Division or the Ohio Department of Natural Resources for guidance and to ensure all local permit requirements are met before starting tree removal or trimming.
