What affects the price of a tree job?

Tree size, access, and what sits beneath the branches all affect the work. We walk the property and give you a flat written quote.

Are you licensed and insured?

Yes. Ed’s Tree Specialists is licensed and insured, and we can provide insurance details before work begins.

Do you haul away the debris?

Cleanup is included unless you ask us to leave wood behind. We’ll explain exactly what the quote covers.

Is stump grinding included with removal?

Stump grinding is quoted separately, so you can decide whether to include it.

How quickly can you respond to storm damage, and what does it cost?

Call us any time for storm damage and we’ll let you know when a crew can get there. After-hours work may cost more.

Can you work near power lines?

Trees touching primary utility lines need to be handled by the utility. Keep clear of downed lines and call your utility first.

I started this company because a lot of folks around here couldn’t tell who was going to show up, what they’d do to the tree, or what it would cost. I wanted to be the opposite of that.

Fifteen years later I still tie in on the hard jobs. If a limb is hanging over your roof, I treat it like it’s hanging over mine.

I walk the yard with you before we cut anything, so you know what’s coming down, what’s staying, and what it costs before the crew arrives.

Looking for a reliable tree team? You’re in the right place.
