"John was quick to respond to my inquiry and even visited the same day to review look at the tree and walk me through the process. Being into safety myself I appreciated his same approach to safety. John performed the work today and it looks fantastic."

"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 questions, answered by experts

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

Any cutting of tree roots can hurt or kill a tree, which is why it's recommended you don’t do it unless the roots are damaging or invasive on a nearby structure like your home. You should never cut more than 15 percent of above-ground tree roots at one time. If you have any questions about cutting tree roots, contact your local arborist.

You should not trim an oak tree in the summer. Oak trees are especially susceptible to disease, and open tree wounds are an invitation for beetles that carry tree-killing fungus. If there’s no risk that the oak tree will do damage to your property or hurt someone, it’s best to save the trimming for fall or winter. If you can, seal the wound with latex to prevent fungus from getting inside.

Pruning can impact cold hardiness—but it’s less about the exact temperature and more about temperature variation. Generally, you don’t want to prune trees when there’s a risk of temperatures suddenly dropping from 50 to 60 degrees Fahrenheit to 0 degrees Fahrenheit or below. A tree is most sensitive until 48 hours after it’s pruned.

It may be possible, but transplanting a large, mature tree can be a tricky project, and some trees handle it better than others. If you have a tree you need to save and are considering transplanting it elsewhere, we highly suggest calling a tree removal service and arranging a consultation to see what they say (and how much a full transplant would cost).
