Tree Cutting Calculator FAQ
Q: What determines tree trimming and tree removal pricing?
A: The tree service processes and prices vary, and are generally contingent on:
Type of tree
Tree age
Location
The structure surrounding the tree
Presence of power lines overhead
Our professional arborists do all we can to keep our prices competitive and affordable. And unlike many “tree companies,” we’re fully licensed and insured, so you run zero risk of liability when we perform work on your property.
Q: Can trees be trimmed in winter?
A: Sure. We use bark coloration, the presence of live tissue, and buds to determine whether any given tree is in its dormancy period. And for some trees, like fruit trees and American elms, it’s preferable to trim in winter. Request an evaluation for specific details on your particular tree!
Q: Can I get my tree stumps removed along with my tree?
A: When we remove a tree, we do so as close to the ground level as is safe and possible – potentially, this may leave a stump of 1” – 12” above the grade. We’ll be happy to remove your stump as well but bear in mind that this requires different equipment and is a separate service. See Stump Removal details for more.
