"They came out and did a quick quote and worked with us to keep it within our budget. They were able to come out 2 days later and got a lot of work done fast. They were pleasant, conscientious, safety minded, and efficient. Next time we have tree work to b done we will call Penney's. We highly recommend them."

"DR Bob treated my tree for Dutch elm disease, as well as my shrubs for spider mites, and black spot. Definitely cheaper than replacing all my shrubs, which I was preparing to do. Prompt and professional. Fingers crossed, this works!"

"I chose thie professionals at Nordic Greens because he was able to give me an close to exact quote over the phone; by what I needed done and the size of the areas that needed attention. I prepaid him before he and his team came out. They spent just a little over the amount of time he expected; but that's because he wanted to do a perfect job. And Nordic Greens lived up to their words. And the price was almost half of what the top 3 yard pros quoted me for the exact same work. When i saw them finishing the last hour of the job in the dark, i knew these were dedicated business pros. These professionals at Nordic Greens have won me over! I will tell all of my neighbors and friends about them. And I will most assuredly call them back in the near future. Great work!"

I have about 20 years experience doing this type of work, but have just recently ventured out on my own. I pride myself in having a good work ethic, attention to detail, and being fair and polite with customers. I always try to get the best idea of specifically what a customer wants, but also have the ability to envision terrific outcomes for any area if the customer doesn’t have any specific ideas.

Arborists questions, answered by experts

If you’re taking down a tree that you don’t suspect is affected by disease or pests and it’s nowhere near your home or other structures, then calling in a tree company should work fine. However, anything more involved means an arborist is a better option. These pros have years of experience with tree removal and can safely take down trees located next to structures, and they have the tools, sanitization equipment, and experience to remove sick or dying trees without infecting nearby trees. 

A palm tree's lifespan typically ranges from 40 to 100 years, though some species can live much longer. For example, certain types of Date Palm trees can live for over 200 years. The exact longevity of a palm tree is influenced by several factors, including its species, size, climate, and growing conditions. To maximize your palm's lifespan, provide proper care and maintenance, such as ensuring it gets enough sunlight, water, and nutrients, and protecting it from pests and diseases. For expert maintenance tips, consider consulting a professional arborist.

A tree growing close to a house can pose several risks, but removal isn't always the only or best solution. Potential problems include roots growing into the foundation and causing structural cracks, branches damaging the roof or promoting moss growth, and debris clogging gutters, which can lead to water damage. Trees can also provide access for pests and encourage mold. However, a small, healthy tree may not be a problem, and for larger, established trees, strategic trimming can be a cheaper and more beneficial alternative to removal. It is generally recommended to take action for trees within 10 to 20 feet of your home, especially if they are unhealthy or encroaching. Your best bet is to consult a professional arborist who can assess the specific situation and provide expert advice.

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

Surface-level tree roots might only pose a small threat, such as being a tripping hazard or obstacle when you mow your lawn. But if mature tree roots start growing in the direction of your home’s foundation or plumbing system, it could be a real problem. Cutting small tree roots out before they grow too large can keep your home safe without removing the whole tree.
