"Brian provided estimate in February 2018. Advised us to wait till leaves were on the tree. Crew arrived on 6/7/2018 on time. Crew was extremely efficient and hard working with two climbers in the tree. Completed work in one day. All debris was chipped and hauled away, leaving our property neat and clean with no damage to landscaping. Brian was great to work with and the bid was very reasonable considering the complexity of the job. I would recommend them them unconditionally."

"I absolutely love this company and their employees!!  We have called them at least 3 times and if I could afford it, I'd call them again!
  We live at the end of a dead end street and  there are trees on all 3 sides of our house.  They were getting pretty large and our house was starting to feel like a cave.  I got permission from the surrounding neighbors to cut some trees .  
   After my phone call, the estimator was here the same day.  I was slightly vague on whether certain trees needed to come down (depended on access) , but he was quite flexible about options.  
  The crew came the following week (This was back in November 2014)  Might have been 5-6 guys, exactly on time, with a giant chipper.  They were an absolute joy to watch:  very precision work and very careful to avoid having limbs hit fences or structures. They climbed the trees and roped the tops or the limbs so the pieces would drop in the right location.  Very respectful of the neighbors' property.  I loved watching them in action.  You can tell they are all professional loggers.   They cut the trunk wood into rounds.  Used the chipper for the branches.  They were very helpful with last minute decisions about trimming versus eliminating something, and planning ahead for future plantings or cuttings.  Jason even went out of his way to talk to one of the neighbors about some trees on their property.  They probably cut down 12-15 trees in about 7 hours.  Our house and yard are much lighter.  Cleanup was outstanding.  The bill for that day was around $3000.  
     Last month, we hired them for removal of some dead trees at the beach.  They drove out from Portland and arrived before sunrise!!  Same result:  precision work with a great group of men who were very helpful and efficient.  They dropped trees that were a hazard.  Some were left to compost naturally, and some were cut into rounds for future firewood.  The bill for that day was around $2000 (included drive time to/ from Portland).  
   The company has arborist services available as well.  We have not yet asked for that help, but I met the arborist (Lorin) and he is quite knowledgeable and helpful.  
   I don't know what other companies charge.  Tree removal is costly, no matter who does it, which is why I gave them a "good" instead of "excellent" on pricing.  Based on their name, I suspect that I maybe should have checked "excellent" but I have no way of comparing prices.  This is only company I have ever called or would ever use.  ve

Arborists questions, answered by experts

Yes, tree roots can regenerate after they’re pruned or cut. In fact, trimming can stimulate new growth, especially in healthy trees. The tree’s roots can still grow back even after a tree is cut down, (and learning how to get rid of regrowing tree roots is a separate feat). Still, if you don’t wish to harm a tree, pruning the roots should be done with extreme care, and ideally by a professional.

The recovery time for pruning depends on how much you prune, the species of tree, and how well you care for it afterward. All trees grow new wood and often sprout additional branches after pruning. Ideally, trees should recover from normal pruning after one or two years. Heavy pruning or slow-growing trees may take several years to fully recover.

No, you should never top maple trees. Topping injures the tree and leads to the rapid growth of a weak canopy, which can be hazardous to rooftops and utility lines. Removing the crown can also leave the interior bark vulnerable to sun damage, leading to insects and disease. A topped tree can also reduce property value and permanently damage the appearance of a tree.

Hiring an arborist costs around $900 on average, with prices ranging from $250 to $2,500 or more. Some arborists charge an hourly rate, typically between $100 and $350 per hour. The final cost depends on several factors, including the type of work, the number of trees, accessibility, and whether you hire an independent arborist or a larger tree service company. When hiring, you should also consider their experience and insurance coverage.

Below are some estimated costs for common arborist jobs:

  • Small tree removal: $300 to $500

  • Large tree removal: $500 to $2,000 or more

  • Tree health assessment: $150

  • Trimming a small tree: $75 to $200

  • Trimming a large tree: $150 to $400

  • Dealing with invasive species: $150 to $1,000 or more

You can hire a professional arborist or tree removal service to cut down a tree to ensure safety, prevent property damage, and comply with all the local regulations. It’s highly advisable to always hire a professional, as tree removal can be extremely dangerous, especially for large or damaged trees. Certified arborists or tree removal experts have the proper equipment, training, and insurance to do the job safely and efficiently. They can also handle cleanup, stump removal, and obtaining the necessary permits.
