"We had some very scary trees hanging over our house and with winter comming we needed them delt with. They got us a quote fast that was definitely reasonable and we're out the next week to do the work. The owner Guy walked us through what would happened, to reassure me that my house was not gonna be in harms way. He took down the trees effortlessly and cleaned up like nothing ever happened. Definitely gonna call them back when I'm ready to do some more clean up around my property. Very pleased with the services he provides and the knowledge he has. Thank you!"

"We were contacted right away by the contractor who came out to bid the job within a couple of days. The work was started/completed approximately one week late due to equipment problem. The gravel brought in was not a sufficient amount to cover the area that was excavated so we had to hire another company to complete that part of the job. We had to finish grading the driveway by hand as it was torn up by the tractor tires."

Arborists questions, answered by experts

While there is a lot of debate about whether boiling water is strong enough to kill tree roots, it is not best to remove the roots from large, old trees. You may be able to weaken young roots enough to remove them manually, but boiling water will likely not do the trick for large root systems.

Hiring an arborist or tree surgeon is usually more expensive than a standard tree company, but it is often worth the investment. Arborists have education and certifications that standard companies typically lack, leading to a more professional, expert-level service. Their expertise is particularly valuable for diseased or infested trees, as they can ensure safer removal and help prevent the issue from spreading. Additionally, arborists may be necessary for work near power lines, as uncertified companies are often not permitted to service these trees. If your goal is to preserve the health of your trees, an arborist is the best choice. Their services, such as stump grinding, are also performed with greater expertise to ensure a safe depth that won't cause your lawn to collapse over time.

Yes, many services include stump grinding to eliminate tripping hazards and improve aesthetics.

Unfortunately, palm tree stumps are one of the most difficult types to remove due to how their roots grow. Unlike other trees, palm tree roots grow horizontally and vertically. Palm tree roots grow as deep as three feet into the ground, although soil and growing conditions could mean they go as far as 50 inches into the earth. 

If you want to be able to repurpose the grass in the area where you removed a stump later, you’ll have to dig quite deep—and perhaps wide—to trim away all the roots.

On average, tree removal costs around $750, with a typical range between $200 and $2,000. The final price depends on several factors, including the tree's height, trunk diameter, species, and overall health. Accessibility is also a key factor; costs will be higher if the tree is in a hard-to-reach area or located near structures like power lines or your home. Additional costs may apply for services such as stump removal (which can add $100 to $150), log-splitting, debris cleanup, and obtaining necessary permits. It is also customary to tip the professional, usually between $20 and $100.
