Customers say: True professional

"In April 2020, I contacted Mr. White because something was eating up my Texas Ash tree. He quickly diagnosed the problem sight-unseen based upon my description of the damage to my tree. I made an appointment and Mr. White came out and treated my tree plus two others. Within a week, I had about 12 inches of new leaves sprouting from most of the branches. Beautiful, green, perfect leaves, not the curled up brown damaged leaves that had proliferated the tree due to an infestation of some type of insect that had taken over the tree. Now, I have clusters and clusters of full leaves, green and lush. My tree is starting to be full of leaves again the way it was before the infestation of this particular insect. I am so grateful for Mr. White and his service. I have no doubt he saved my tree."

"I would highly recommend working with Abel and Sons for all your Tree Service needs. I had several overgrown trees that they were able to trim professionally and in a timely manner. Scheduling the project was almost immediate and the price overall on the project was extremely fair. I happy with the results from the project and think the trees look great!"

Tree Service 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.

Trees don’t usually grow back after being cut down. Some particularly robust tree species may start sending up new stems from a stump to recover, but those stems won’t become a “tree” like before. Generally, trees don’t recover from being entirely cut down, which is why it’s important to be careful when making a decision. When you cut down a tree, it’s a good idea to make plans to remove the stump, even if it’s unlikely to grow back.

In general, trees should be planted no closer than 15 to 20 feet from your foundation. For larger trees with far-reaching roots like maples, oaks, or poplars, a good guide is to plant as many feet from your home as the tree’s height is expected to reach at maturity. Some trees, like elms and willows, should only be planted far from where their roots may encounter sewer or water lines.

Costs reflect the size of the tree or shrub, the complexity of the task, location accessibility, and disposal needs, and comprehensive quotes vary accordingly.

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.
