I have a confirmed dead pine tree in the back yard (roughy 50 ft) and it's close enough to the house that I can't just take it down with an axeSo what's the best way to find a good tree service? There are many around in the phone book: what are some qualifications to look for in a tree service?Also, any idea what I can expect to pay for the removal of one 50 fttree?And yes, it is confirmed deadI contacted the forest department and they verified this.Thanks.
First offMake sure the Tree service has insurance and how much.are they bonded? Do they have a lisence arborists on staff? What equipment will they be using? A bucket truck? A crane? Dead trees cannot always be climbed due to their tendancy to topple, risking damage and injuryWill the stump be ground out? Gather that info and make a decision based on qualifications and price of the jobThe cheapest is NOT always the best in this caseGood Luck.
