"We used Ronny Tree service multiple times. They are profesional, respectful and accountable. They are very easy to work and communicate with. The first time, they grinned the tree roots for us. The second time they removed a huge pine tree for us. They performed a perfect job. We were worried they may cause some damage to our property because the tree is so tall. But they promptly removed the tree with no damages to our property at all. They cleaned up everything each time. They are so efficient with what they do. We were truly amazed by their work. We will definitely hire them back as we still have lots of work left for our yard. You will not regret by hiring them to see their excellent work for yourself. They are trustworthy people with great work ethic. Thank you Ronny Tree Service for taking care of our yard."

"Benitez Tree Services did an excellent job for me. I needed to clear a wooded lot that had a number of trees on it. Benitez prices were very reasonable and their service was excellent. They even finished sooner than I expected. Job went off without a hitch! I will definitely use these guys again!"

"I hired Kleen Kuts Tree Service of Manvel to remove an eighteen-year-old oak tree that was damaging my yard and home and grind the stump. I have nothing but positive things to say about my experience. Eddie and his crew were incredibly professional, efficient and thorough. The guys arrived on time and were prepared with the proper equipment to safely remove the tree. No damage was done to my house or plants and, after the tree was down, they cleaned up after themselves, leaving my yard looking spotless. My neighbors who watched the process have even told me that the team was fast and efficient. I couldn't be happier with the level of service I received from Kleen Kuts. The responsiveness, professionalism and attention to detail exceeded my expectations. Oh – and the icing is that his bid was the best one I got! I would highly recommend Kleen Kuts to anyone in need of tree removal services (or tree trimming). Thank you for a job well done!"

Arborists FAQs, answered by experts

Most tree surgeons cost around $100 per hour or between $70 and $200 per hour for their services. You might get flat fees for more straightforward services, like a tree assessment, tree removal, stump grinding, and one-off treatments, but many times, treatments for tree diseases or pests will be charged based on an hourly rate or a per-visit rate. Since the cost of a tree surgeon can vary widely, it’s best to speak with an arborist near you to get an idea of what your particular issue will cost to correct.

The average lifespan of an oak tree is 100 to 300 years, so long as it isn’t impacted by diseases like sudden oak death. Some species will last shorter or longer, depending on where you live.

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.

You may wonder whether tree removal is tax deductible: Tree removal is not tax-deductible for homeowners unless it's related to a federally declared disaster. In that case, the cost may qualify as a casualty loss. However, if you own a commercial property, like a rental home, tree removal could be deductible if it's necessary for safety, maintenance, or part of a larger capital improvement project, and you must hire a professional tree removal service and keep documentation. Always consult a tax professional beforehand to see if you qualify.

It is possible to cut down a tree on your property yourself, but it is generally not recommended unless specific conditions are met. You should only consider this project if the tree is small (e.g., under 4-5 inches in diameter and short enough that you don't need a ladder to reach the branches), and you are experienced in handling a chainsaw. The tree must also be located far from any power lines, fences, homes, or other structures. Even for small trees, the work can be dangerous, and it's always advisable to have a spotter to ensure the tree falls correctly and no branches fall on you.

For any tree that is large, requires a ladder to access, or is near electrical lines or structures, you should always hire a professional. Attempting to remove a large tree yourself is extremely dangerous, poses a risk of serious injury, and could result in significant damage to your property.

Before any tree removal, it's also important to check your local and state regulations to ensure the tree is not historic or otherwise protected by your city.
