"Long overdue review for a great job clearing out years of overgrown brush and trees from the side and back of our house. The meadow behind us is visible now and it’s much more enjoyable to watch the wildlife mill about than staring at untended trees and overgrown brush. Will reach out again whenever we need landscaping help again. "

"I would definitely recommend Madroño. My wife and I moved into a house in San Francisco with a backyard that was an overgrown, weedy jungle. Geoff from Madroño came out to meet with me and discuss options and prepared a design plan with recommended plants, and he worked with us through lots of questions and requested changes. His team, led by Daniel the project manager, was great. They finished the job efficiently and were incredibly responsive with questions we had, and even rushed out on short notice one morning after the job was completed to help us fix the mess a local raccoon had made of the sod they had laid. The job was done on budget with no unexpected surprises there the only adjustments to the budget Geoff originally prepared were ones we had specifically requested to accommodate changes we wanted to make. Great experience and great people!"

Frequently Asked Questions

How much does it cost to take down a tree?

The average price of removing a tree ranges between $400 and $2,000. Small trees up to 75 feet high typically cost $1,000 or less, while those above 75 feet range up to $1,800 and more. Foliage condition of and access also factor into that range.

  • Limb chipping: $65 - $150
  • Trunk removal: $40 - $120
  • Firewood log splitting: $50 - $100

Does homeowner's insurance cover tree removal?

Home insurance only covers tree removal if it's already fallen and has caused damage. General yard maintenance, like pruning branches or removing a dying tree, is not included in most policies. If you have a fallen tree on your property, check with your insurance company to see if it covers the price to remove it.

Should I remove a tree close to my house?

You should remove a tree that's closer than 10 to 15 feet to your home because it can pose major problems. The roots can damage your foundation and pipes. If it falls, the chance of damage to your home is significant.

Removing a tree that close to your home requires extra care and planning. You have to make sure that no parts of your home or roof are in jeopardy. Most professionals recommend extracting the roots as well as the trunk and limbs.

What questions should I ask tree removal companies?

  • Can you provide up-to-date certification and insurance?
  • What are your credentials and how long have you been in business?
  • Do you have a certified arborist on staff?
  • Do you have references that I can check before committing to a contract?
  • Will you provide a detailed written estimate?
  • Will this job require a permit or HOA clearance?
  • Do you expect any upfront payment before the work begins?
  • What equipment will you use to cut down and remove the tree?
  • How long will the job take?
  • What safety precautions will your crew take to protect themselves and my home?
  • How will you ensure minimal damage to my property around the tree?
  • What's your cleanup process?
