"I hired 24/7 Tree Service to cut down and remove 14 dead trees on the vacant lot behind my house. They did an outstanding job and were very professional. They showed up right on time and they gave me an excellent price. The work they did was better than any other tree service I have hired in the past and working with Alcides was a pleasure. I would highly recommended this company for any tree service you need big or small. Do yourself a favor and get a hold of 24/7 Tree Service for an estimate before you hire another company."

"I had an emergency situation with a 70 year old Post Oak uprooting and beginning to fall towards my roof. L & T Tree Service responded immediately (9PM) They came out to inspect by 8 AM the following morning and had a team ready to remove the tree, including grinding out the stump. Professional, skilled workers, safely removed the tree and left the area completely clean of any debris. I would highly recommend L & T Tree Service ."

Customers say: True professional

"Dr Bob White was a joy to work with. He came to the house, evaluated our trees and pointed out other concerns with the vegetation in the yard. We were afraid we were going to lose our live Oak trees. After his assessment he recommended a particular plan for the trees and ,if desired, treating the other concerns in the yard. We opted for the treatment of all of our plants/bushes and trees. He completed the treatments that day. Now, after two months we have trees that look healthy and a yard that has never looked better. I am so thankful that we were able to save our lovely trees and make our yard look so nice. I thought his service was wonderful."

Tree Service questions, answered by experts

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.

You can remove a small tree from your yard if there’s space for the tree to fall, you have the right tools and safety equipment, and you follow a clear plan of action. You’ll just want to follow the steps above carefully, and ideally, you will have experience doing similar tasks. If you have any doubts that you can do this project safely, though, you should hire a pro.

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

Trees should be pruned every two to five years, depending on its age and type. Young trees should be inspected and pruned every two to three years. Mature trees should be inspected and trimmed every three to five years, and fruit trees should be pruned annually with a careful eye on seasonal growth. Evergreens typically don’t need pruning, unless branches or limbs are damaged, diseased, or harboring pests.

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.
