"Kevin and his crew were on time..professional and friendly. They were very careful taking down the trees we wanted down and trimming all the limbs from the other trees we wanted done. Once they were finished they cleaned all the debris from the yard..I will gladly give them an excellent review and in the future when and if I need them again I will definitely use them. They all feel like family now."

"C & E responded to my request for tree service and came to assess the project on the same day I posted it. Carlos came to my house at the end of his work day and walked the property to gain a thorough understanding of what I needed. We executed a contract, and he and his crew arrived the next day and removed 2 trees, a deteriorating wood fence, shrubbery and overgrowth, and trimmed another large tree. Everything was completed as agreed at a very reasonable price. I am thoroughly satisfied and will continue to use their services."

"These folks really go the extra mile. Removed massive trees from my property at a better price than I have even been quoted. Did extra all over the property, for free, to ensure my RV could make it through without hitting tree limbs. Made sure to set everything back exactly the way it was prior to them coming on site. I can't say enough about these folks but they are my go-to for landscaping on our farm from now on."

Tree Service questions, answered by experts

In some states and municipalities, you will need a permit to remove a tree on your property. In many cases where permits are required, a tree must reach a maximum height before a permit is required to remove it. You can either ask your local building department or a tree removal professional if you’ll need a permit. If you do, you can expect to pay between $50 and $150 for the permit alone. Your tree removal company should pull the permit for you and include the permit fee in your total.

Transplanting a palm tree is a similar process except for a couple of important differences. First, their root ball doesn’t need to be as large as a “true” tree, which makes them a bit easier to dig up and move around. Second, they struggle more with taking root and staying upright in a new location, so it’s important to give them extra support when staking. 

If you want to take your tree-planting hobby beyond your outdoor space, here are a few great ways to do it:

  • Encourage your neighbors to participate in the Arbor Day Foundation’s Tree City USA program, which has a four-step framework that helps communities grow and maintain their own tree cover.

  • Support businesses that plant trees. 

  • Lobby your local government to plant more trees around your community.

  • Donate to a tree-planting charity.

You can use a felling ax to chop down a tree by following the same prep and steps as a chainsaw, but be prepared to use some muscle. For trees bigger than 7 inches in diameter, it can take some time and serious strength to cut down a tree using just an ax. 

The best way to protect tree roots is to avoid the roots entirely by excavating outside the root radius of the tree. For nearby projects, it’s a good idea to construct a temporary retaining wall. But that’s not always possible, depending on the project and the root system. In these cases, consider using alternative equipment like an auger to tunnel under the ground.

Remember, tree roots can damage nearby cement foundations as they grow. If a tree is close enough to interfere with large excavations, it may be better to remove the tree than risk future problems.
