"Jasper came out and looked at all our trees shrubs that needed to be pruned or removed. He then gave us an estimate and we picked out a future date for them to come. His crew was awesome. They came on time. They cleaned up after themselves and they were very nice people! I highly recommend this company, keep up the good work Jasper and crew"

"Weather played a huge part in getting the work done. The crew showed up on time and vigorously the project. Their clean-up was great. Unfortunately their newer Vermeer Stump grinder had electrical problems and the grinding couldn't be finished same day. In the meantime we got a foot of snow. Randy showed up with the repaired stump grinder and finished up today. There is still snow on the ground in the work area so clean-up will have to wait until melt is done."

"I had a pine tree that had large branches were growing over my shed and reaching over the edge of the roof of my house. There were times in the past, when the ice covering the branches, that the branches rested upon the power lines. There were two vertical trunks that were twisted upon each other. All of these branches and trunks were removed without harm to my facility and did not hit the power lines. The tree was completely removed and hauled away. Before they left, the clean up the area. Very professional"

"Matt and his company did through and quality work. We couldn't have been happier with the end result. He went above and beyond to ensure we were happy with the work that was done. We had several bids and he was 1/3 of the cost the others were. But more importantly he stood behind the work he did and was a man of his word which is so hard to find. If you're struggling to find someone who is reliable and does quality work look no further. You won't be dissappointed"

Arborists FAQs, answered by experts

There are two types of arborists: certified and consulting. A certified arborist is licensed and equipped to provide tree pruning, planting, fertilizing, monitoring, transplanting, treatment, and removal services. A consulting arborist specializes in tree appraisals, diagnosing problems and recommending treatments for illnesses. However, they will not provide these services themselves. Most consulting arborists are certified arborists who can refer you to a tree service that can administer the correct treatments.

Unless it’s dead or dangerous, think twice about cutting down a tree in your yard. They’re good for health, well-being, wildlife, and the environment. Plus, local authorities often have regulations prohibiting the removal of trees, especially protected species or individual trees with historical value.

On average, tree removal costs around $750, with a typical range between $200 and $2,000. The final price depends on several factors, including the tree's height, trunk diameter, species, and overall health. Accessibility is also a key factor; costs will be higher if the tree is in a hard-to-reach area or located near structures like power lines or your home. Additional costs may apply for services such as stump removal (which can add $100 to $150), log-splitting, debris cleanup, and obtaining necessary permits. It is also customary to tip the professional, usually between $20 and $100.

According to scientists at Penn State University, spotted lanternflies do not typically kill the trees and plants they feed on, but they can cause branches and segments to die off. However, they have been found to kill cultivated grapes, which can have devastating consequences for vineyard owners and regions that heavily rely on vineyards to create jobs and generate revenue. They have also killed the Ailanthu altissima, known as the tree of heaven, though this is classified as a noxious and invasive weed tree.

Tree roots are hearty and complex systems, so they don’t die immediately after the rest of the tree is removed. If you leave the root system in place, it takes anywhere from two to seven years for it to run out of nutrients. It is worth noting, however, that the roots stop growing and expanding after cutting down the rest of the tree.
