"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. "

"The project was a small patio area behind our house, bounded by the house on one side and an 8â high poured concrete retaining wall on the other 3 sides. The job was to install slate pavers on top of the existing concrete floor, cover the retaining wall with stucco, and install a drainage system around the perimeter of the patio. There were multiple problems: the only access to the area was through the interior of the house; a large â hot tubâ spa was already on the patio and had to be moved around as the work progressed; our neighborhood is extremely foggy and the patio is wet more often than not. Time was lost waiting for materials (the stucco, the sealant used on the pavers, etc.) to dry out. Geoffrey handled all the problems efficiently. We are very pleased with the result. Geoffrey and his workers are completely professional in their approach, and very easy to communicate with. We are completely satisfied. Highly recommended! "

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.

  • Stump removal: $50 - $300
  • 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?
