Common questions about our tree and shrub pruning and maintenance services
Tree trimming costs vary based on tree size, height, complexity, and accessibility. Small trees typically range $150-$400, medium trees $400-$800, and large trees $800-$1,500+. Palm trimming usually costs $75-$200 per palm. We provide free estimates after assessing your specific trees and pruning needs.
Most trees benefit from pruning every 3-5 years, though young trees may need more frequent attention. Fast-growing shrubs and hedges often need trimming 2-4 times per year. Palms should be trimmed annually, typically in fall before storm season. We'll assess your specific plants and recommend an appropriate maintenance schedule.
Trees touching or very close to power lines should only be trimmed by professionals with proper training and equipment. We coordinate with utility companies when necessary and follow all safety protocols. For your safety, never attempt to prune near power lines yourself. Contact us or your utility company for assistance with these situations.
Yes! Complete cleanup is included in all our tree and shrub services. We haul away all cut branches, leaves, and debris, leaving your property clean and tidy. We can also chip smaller branches for mulch if you'd like to keep them for your landscape beds. Our goal is to leave your property looking better than when we arrived.
It depends on the extent of the damage. We can often save trees with broken branches or partial damage through proper pruning and care. However, trees with major trunk splits, more than 50% crown loss, or structural instability may need to be removed for safety. We provide honest assessments and recommendations based on each tree's condition and your property's safety.
Absolutely! We carry full liability insurance and workers' compensation coverage to protect you and our team. Our technicians are trained in proper pruning techniques and safety procedures. Tree work can be dangerous, so it's essential to work with insured professionals. We're happy to provide proof of insurance upon request.
