"Hooperâ s Tree Service did an excellent job on quoting on the project, giving us a timeline on when they could fo it and executing the job at a very high level. I was not able to be here when they came to do the work and trusted they would get the job done and they exceeded my expectations. I would highly recommend Hooperâ s tree service! 5 Star for sure."

"Very well. They did exceptional work. Were very responsive to my requests regarding the project. They talked little. They just worked. And it was the best cleanup of the area of the tree cutting I had ever seen. No stray branches."

"One of the best experiences I've had with any company doing home improvements! Josh installed ground gutters for us; he started the job right away and worked incredibly hard, He responded to calls and emails immediately, was super nice, and did a great job. I'd hire him again in a heartbeat."

"Hans is the best! I have used West River Excavating and Tree Removal many times over the years. Hans is great. He shows up on time, works efficiently, and the price is great. Of the many projects he has done for me some include removing 7 large trees close to the house and regrading the yard to improve the drainage. No more wet basement in the summer and no frozen sidewalks in the winter. He also removed several dead trees from around the parking area and regraded the driveway to reduce erosion during intense summer rains. Can?t say enough great things about the work done."

Arborists questions, answered by experts

Late winter is ideal, but if you’re pruning apple trees in the spring, prune them as early as possible in the season. You want to ensure your tree is just creeping out of dormancy and hasn’t started pushing out new growth. If you prune your tree too late into spring, you generally won’t see results until the following year.

That said, there’s no pruning season for unhealthy growth. Remove dead, dying, or diseased branches as soon as you notice them, regardless of the time of year.

If you don’t cut down a dead, dying, or diseased tree, it can become a nesting place for pests like mosquitos, bees, beetles, wasps, fly larvae, and more. Some pests will live in the tree, while others will feed off the decaying wood. Unhealthy trees are also more likely to fall over, potentially injuring people and causing damage to your property.

Palm trees aren’t much different than your typical tree removal. Removing a palm tree is a standard procedure as long as pros have the proper tools and supplies. For DIYers, however, there are some risks associated with palm tree removal. Palm trees have spiky fronds, bark, and patches of hefty wood. So, it’s best to let an experienced tree service pro remove a palm tree.

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

Yes, you can hire professionals to move a tree. Arborists and tree transplanting companies specialize in this type of work and use equipment like hydraulic tree spades to safely extract and relocate trees with their root balls intact. Since tree moving is a complex process, especially for larger trees, it’s best left to experts who understand how to protect the tree’s health and ensure the safety of everyone involved.
