  • When is the best time to prune or trim my trees?

    Late winter to early spring is generally the best time for trimming or pruning since the tree is dormant, reducing stress on the tree. However, it depends on the tree type—some may be better pruned in summer or fall.

  • How do I know if my tree needs to be removed?

    Signs that a tree may need removal include: Dead or decaying branches, leaning or instability, disease or infestation that is beyond treatment, roots causing damage to structures or sidewalks, and the tree is blocking important views or creating safety hazards.

  • Do I need a permit for tree removal?

    Some municipalities and cities require permits for which we will obtain all necessary permits.

  • How much does tree trimming or removal cost?

    Costs vary depending on the size of the tree, the complexity of the job, and your location. Small tree pruning may cost $75–$300, while large tree removal can cost $500–$2,000 or more. Stump grinding typically adds an additional $100–$400, depending on the stump’s size.

  • How long does tree removal take?

    The time required for tree removal depends on the size of the tree, location, and complexity of the job. Small trees can be removed in a few hours, while large or difficult-to-reach trees may take a full day or longer.

  • Do you offer emergency tree services?

    Yes, we offer many emergency services for fallen or dangerous trees, especially after storms or other events that may cause damage.
