Virginia Tree Specialist can provide you with the maximum experience in hazardous removals, and all phases of tree care. We are a state of the art company, and have all necessary equipment to service your tree care needs.

"I only write a review when a company has gone above and beyond with their service. I know there are so many companies to choose from but if you want an honest, fair, professional, caring and truly knowledgeable company this one is 100% the one to choose. You can't go wrong with them. I used the text message option to get in contact (that was a great option) with them and within an hour they showed up at the door ready to help with my tree problem. I learned more about trees in 10 mins than I've known my whole life. If you want the best company out there you definitely should use Virginia Tree Specialist. ? If there was a 10 star ? rating I would pick that because that's what they deserve"

"Elder and Alex came by on a Sunday for a free estimate and gave me an excellent price. They cam in on Wednesday morning, took down a 32" walnut that was 15 feet from a fence and 20 feet from my deck. They trimmed another walnut, and branches on a maple that had branches overhanging the house and the electric service. They were on time, and were extremely pleasant and professional in their work. I wanted to save some of the wood to be sawn into lumber, and they cut those pieces exactly as I wanted and put them where they will have easy access for the sawyer. Their cleanup afterward was amazing. I highly recommend Elder and Alex for any of your tree work, and in fact asked for asome business cards to share with friends."

"Woody and Tiba were incredible! They are definitely the jack of all trades. They moved me into a new place and it was not easy. They had to break down furniture, put it back together, fit awkward shaped furniture in small spaces and they did it all with kindness, patience, professionalism and great communication. There was more furniture than expected and their eye for spacial reasoning to get it all to fit in the truck was on point. They were careful with everything. It was the smoothest moving experience I've ever had and I've moved a lot. I highly recommend them for moving or any household project you need. They are knowledgeable about so much!"

Arborists questions, answered by experts

The average cost to build a pergola ranges from $2,200 to $6,400, whereas the average cost of an awning ranges from $1,400 to $4,400, meaning that an awning tends to be less expensive to build or install than a pergola. Ultimately, the less expensive option depends on a few factors, including size, quality of materials used, and location.

Both cedar and redwood are some of the best woods for pergolas. Both are rot- and insect-resistant and have gorgeous natural tones that age well. Redwood tends to have a longer life span than cedar, but it also comes at a higher cost. While both options are durable, the best wood between these two for your pergola will primarily depend on your budget.

Pergolas and similar overhead outdoor structures will typically be subject to building code regulations. Every municipality is different, and some may have specs or permit requirements, so it’s important to double-check. Some HOAs may also have restrictions on what you can build, so be sure to check with your HOA as well (if applicable).

The best lumber for building will be the strongest and most eco-friendly wood your budget allows. That being said, Douglas fir, pine, oak, and maple are all common building materials. Contractors will use a strong, inexpensive wood to frame a house or other structure and finer woods like mahogany for detail work. 

On average, a prefabricated pergola kit takes one to four hours to build. Prefabricated pergolas are the fastest to install and could save you money, while custom pergolas can take several days to install, ranging from eight to 16 hours. The number of workers on the project can also impact how long it takes to install a pergola. 

If you need to build a concrete slab, level your property, or remove obstacles from your yard before building a pergola, then your project could take several weeks to complete.
