Is removal the right call?
Sometimes it is. Sometimes trimming or treatment can keep a tree you'd rather save. An onsite assessment helps you decide with facts, not guesses.
A dead or dying tree
A tree that hasn't leafed out, has lost most of its canopy or keeps declining despite care.
Damage you're worried about
A split trunk, large damaged limbs or a lean that has changed. If it's urgent, go to emergency tree work.
The wrong tree in the wrong place
A tree crowding the house, walls, pool or other trees, or one that no longer suits the yard.
Making room for a project
Clearing space for a remodel, hardscape, a pool or new planting.
Hoping to keep the tree?
If it's declining, a plant health care evaluation can check whether treatment is an option. If it's just overgrown, tree trimming may solve the problem. We'll tell you what we see during the evaluation.
What shapes the job and the estimate
Every removal is different. These are the things we look at when we plan the work and price it.

Tree size and condition
Height, trunk size and whether the wood is sound or decayed.
Access
Front or backyard, gate width and how equipment can reach the tree.
What's nearby
Roofs, walls, fences, pools, overhead lines and landscaping around the tree.
Debris and stump
How much wood and debris is hauled away, and whether you want the stump ground.

Stump grinding: an optional add-on
After a removal, the stump stays unless you ask for it to be ground. Many people call this stump removal.
If you want the stump gone, ask us to include stump grinding in your estimate. Grinding takes the stump down below the surface. It does not dig out the whole root system.
Planning to replant in the same area? Tell us, because it affects how the stump area is handled.

The crew, the Orange Crew, called before they arrived and rang the doorbell when they arrived. They explained what they were going to do and then got busy. We watched through our window as they cut down the tree and disposed of the cut branches. They worked together very well and in about 10 minutes had the tree removed. They cleaned up the area very well, had us come out to see if we were satisfied (we were), and said their goodbyes. We couldn't be more satisfied with the Orange Crew's work.

Tree removal questions
Is stump grinding included in tree removal?
Not automatically. Stump grinding is an option. Ask for it and it will be listed in your estimate, so there are no surprises about what's left behind.
What happens to the wood, branches and chips?
Cleanup is part of the job. What gets hauled away, and whether you'd like to keep any wood or chips, is set out in your plan.
[CONFIRM DEFAULT HAUL-AWAY + WOOD-CHIP HANDLING]
What affects the cost of tree removal?
The tree's size and condition, how easy it is to reach, what's around it, how much debris there is and whether you add stump grinding. Your estimate is based on your tree, after we've seen it.
How do I prepare for a tree removal?
Move vehicles, patio furniture and planters away from the work area, and make sure the crew can get through gates. Let us know about pets, sprinkler heads or anything fragile nearby. We'll go over access during the evaluation.
Do you handle permits or utility coordination?
On emergency jobs, we coordinate with utility companies when needed. For a planned removal near power lines, or in an HOA, ask us during the evaluation.
[PERMIT, HOA + PLANNED-REMOVAL UTILITY POLICY TO CONFIRM]
Can you plant a new tree after the removal?
Yes, tree planting is a separate service we offer. If you plan to replant in the same area, mention it so we can plan the stump and site with that in mind.
What if the tree has fallen or it's an emergency?
Go to our emergency tree work page for how to reach us about urgent problems.
