When you’re selecting a tree removal service, it’s important to ask the right questions to ensure you get the safest, highest quality service for your home. Tree removal can be dangerous work—for the team and your home—and you should have trained professionals administering the job. Here’s what to ask to make sure you’re hiring a great company.

4 Questions to Ask When Choosing a Tree Removal Service

1. What Are Your Credentials?

Find out whether the company is a member of any professional arborist or tree care associations. Associations and certifying organizations provide ongoing training for tree care experts to ensure the highest standard in safety and quality. If your tree is around power lines, check that the tree removal service has training in line clearance.

2. Will Your Provide a Detailed Estimate?

You should solicit at least three estimates to compare prices and services. Each company may offer different services in the package, so you should ask for a breakdown of the estimate for easy comparison. Find out if branch and stump removal from the site are included.

3. How Long Will the Project Take?

Ask how many days your job is expected to take and whether you need to be on-site for the entirety of the project. Find out how they handle delays for inclement weather, and what circumstances could cause a delay.

4. How Will You Protect Our Yard While Performing the Job?

Your house, your yard and your gardens will be vulnerable to damage while the tree removal service is working on your project. Find out how the company will remove the tree, and what steps they will take to ensure your property is protected. In some cases, yard damage may be unavoidable, and it’s best to know what to expect in advance.

Beautiful, healthy trees are an asset to your home, but they need proper care or removal if they pose a danger to your property. Screen your options carefully to find the best service for the job.
