"I had an excellent experience with this tree service company from start to finish! The estimate was fair and very affordable compared to others I considered. They arrived on time, worked efficiently, and took great care to protect surrounding property from damage. They removed debris thoroughly and left my yard cleaner than they found it. I highly recommend them to anyone in need of tree removal or trimming services. Reliable, affordable, and excellent customer service — I will definitely use them again in the future!!"

"C Chaplin did a spring clean up on my yard that included trimming a tree, mowing, mulching around bushes, and taking out some plants/shrubs. Pleased with their work BUT?-they ran out of edging material and promised to return to complete the work. I paid for the work including the missing edging border materials. I?M STILL WAITING AND ITS BEEN OVER TWO MONTHS. I?ve called/texted and been ignored except for one time and they promised to come that week and complete edging. STILL WAITING. Workers were very good and I was satisfied with their work. Manager needs to take care of business and finish job that was paid for, both labor and material."

Arborists questions, answered by experts

It could be anywhere from weeks to years for a dead tree to fall. A dead tree falls based on its weight, how it leans, the state of its roots, the state of decay, and what local windstorms are like, among other factors. Since it’s hard to predict the fall’s timing, it’s important to cut down a dead tree quickly and avoid any unpleasant surprises.

Coverage varies quite a bit by policy, but most homeowners' insurance policies will cover $500 to $1,000 of the cost of removing a tree. Additionally, if your tree causes damage to your property, like your house, many policies will cover some or all of the costs to repair the damage, depending on why the tree fell.

Yes, healthy and well-placed large trees can boost property value by an average of 3% to 15%. They improve curb appeal, offer energy savings through shade and wind protection, and are often considered by appraisers during home valuation. On the flip side, removing dead or hazardous trees can also increase value by eliminating safety risks. For the biggest return, choose low-maintenance, native species that thrive in your climate.

Generally speaking, you’ll want to avoid flush cuts, which are cuts made as extremely close to the trunk or main branch. These cuts can weaken your tree, lower its natural defense mechanisms, and even cause decay. You’ll also want to avoid tree topping, which is the total removal of the leader and upper main branches of a tree. 

Most pros will advise against either of these methods, which is why hiring a pro is often the best choice when it comes to tree trimming.

In the short term, you’ll have a lot of fallen trees to deal with. Tree removal services costs typically start at $200 per tree and increase based on species and size. Then, you’ll have to deal with the loss of trees: That means a loss of shade and a greater risk of rain runoff and erosion. Also, you’ll miss out on the health and aesthetic benefits of having trees on your property, which could even affect the resale value of your home.

That being said, cutting down a tree it’s not always a bad idea. Trees growing too close to rooftops can present fire hazards or debris problems. You may need to remove diseased or dying trees to prevent future issues.
