Signs you need a tree service pro
A tree or limb has fallen
If a tree is on your house, car or driveway, stay clear and get help fast. Never touch anything near downed power lines.
Large dead branches
Dead limbs can drop without warning, especially in wind. Bare branches in summer are a common sign.
The tree is leaning
A new or growing lean, or soil heaving up at the base, can mean the roots are failing.
Cracks, cavities or fungus
Deep splits in the trunk, hollow spots and mushrooms at the base often point to decay.
Branches touch the roof
Limbs rubbing the roof or hanging over it can damage shingles and gutters and drop debris.
Roots damaging hardscape
Roots lifting sidewalks or driveways may need an arborist's advice on what can be done.
How much does tree service cost?
Removing a single medium-size tree often costs about $400 to $1,500. Small trees can cost less, while large, hazardous or hard-to-reach trees can cost $2,000 or more. Trimming is usually a few hundred dollars per tree. Prices vary by tree size, location on your property and region.
Tree removal (one medium tree)
$400 – $1,500
Typical US range. Your price depends on your home, your area and the materials you choose. Your local pro gives you an exact quote.
What affects the price
- Tree height and trunk size
- Taller, wider trees take more time, more climbing and bigger equipment to bring down safely.
- Location and access
- Trees near the house, fences or other structures must be taken down in pieces, which costs more.
- Power lines nearby
- Trees near power lines need extra care. Your utility may need to be involved for lines touching the tree.
- Tree condition
- Dead, cracked or storm-damaged trees can be riskier to climb and cut.
- Emergency timing
- After-hours, same-day or storm work often costs more than scheduled work.
- Stump grinding and haul-away
- Stump grinding, wood removal and debris cleanup are often priced separately.
- Permits
- Some cities require a permit to remove certain trees, which can add cost and time.
How to choose a tree service pro
Confirm insurance first
Tree work is dangerous. Ask for proof of liability insurance and workers' compensation so you are not on the hook if something goes wrong.
Look for a certified arborist
ISA Certified Arborists have passed an exam on tree care. They are a good choice for pruning and health questions.
Check local licensing
Some states and cities license tree contractors. Ask what is required in your area and whether the company meets it.
Get cleanup in writing
The written estimate should say whether stump grinding, wood removal and debris haul-away are included.
Avoid topping and climbing spikes
Topping harms trees. Spikes should not be used on a tree you plan to keep. A good pro will explain how they prune.
Be wary of storm chasers
After storms, be careful with door-to-door crews asking for full payment upfront.
Tree Service FAQs
What is the average cost to cut a tree down?
Cutting down a medium-size tree often costs about $400 to $1,500. Small trees can cost a few hundred dollars, while very large or hazardous trees near a house can cost $2,000 or more. Stump grinding and hauling away the wood may be extra. Height, access, power lines and your region all affect the price, so get a written estimate.
What is the cheapest time of year for tree removal?
Late winter is often a slower season for tree services, which can make scheduling easier and sometimes lower prices. Bare branches also make the job easier for the crew in many cases. Storm season is usually the busiest time, when demand can raise prices. Hazardous trees should not wait for a cheaper season, though. Safety comes first.
What is the best month to trim a tree?
For many trees, late winter, while the tree is dormant, is a good time to prune. Wounds tend to close faster once spring growth starts, and the branch structure is easy to see. Spring-flowering trees are often pruned right after they bloom. In some regions, oaks should not be pruned in spring or summer because of oak wilt. Dead or broken limbs can be removed any time.
How do I choose a tree service?
Start with insurance. Ask for proof of liability insurance and workers' compensation, since tree work is dangerous. Look for an ISA Certified Arborist on staff, especially for pruning. Check any local license rules. Get a written estimate that covers cleanup and stump grinding. Avoid crews that recommend topping healthy trees or ask for full payment upfront.
What should I ask when hiring a tree removal service?
Ask if they carry liability insurance and workers' compensation, and request proof. Ask whether a certified arborist is on the team. Ask how they will protect your house, fence and lawn. Confirm whether the price includes stump grinding, wood removal and cleanup. Ask who handles any permit, and when they can start.
What should I do if a tree falls on my house?
Get everyone out of the damaged area and stay away from any downed power lines. Call your utility if lines are involved and 911 if anyone is hurt or in danger. Take photos for your insurance company. Then call a tree service with the equipment to remove the tree safely. Do not try to cut a tree resting on your roof yourself.
Can seniors get free tree removal?
Free tree removal for seniors is not widely available, but some help exists in certain areas. Your utility may trim or remove trees that threaten power lines. Some cities remove trees on public land near the street. Local aging agencies, nonprofits or disaster programs may help after storms. Call your city or county to ask what is offered locally.
