To provide a more timely response we typically stop out without an appointment and provide an estimate on the services you requested.  If you prefer to be there we would be happy to meet with you, but please understand it may take 7-10 days to get an open appointment slot.  Our two ISA certified arborists do all of the estimates.  We will take appointments Monday-Friday, 7am-5pm, and are willing to meet with you over the lunch hour.  Please understand we will not take appointments on weekends or evenings as we spend this time with our families.

Please call our office.  A copy of the estimate will be on file there and the office personnel can give you an idea of the approximate wait period.  They put you on the list and record any special request you may have.  The arborists do all the scheduling.  If you want to be notified when your work order is coming up, request this when you call in.  The arborist will contact you at the appropriate time and set up a time that will work for everyone.

We want you to be happy with your investment.  To ensure this we need to provide an experienced crew.  In order to maintain the quality of our operation we run one crew.  The crewmembers are employed year round to ensure we have experienced personnel on your property, both for your safety and ours.  So at times it may be 2-3 months before we can get a job, but we are confident it will be worth the wait.

Stumps will be ground 8-12 inches below grade unless otherwise noted.  Specific depth varies according to grade, species, accessibility, etc.  Price quoted is for grinding only.  Grindings will be raked back into the hole.  Chip removal and refill with black dirt is available for an additional charge usually equal to the grinding charge.
