FAQ

Common questions

How much does tree removal cost?

A typical single-tree removal costs about $300–$1,100. Prices are per tree, from jobs we completed in 2025–26.

Do you handle storm damage?

Yes. We remove trees and large limbs that a storm brings down.

Do I need a permit?

Permit requirements vary by city and by tree. Trees on city property, such as street and parkway trees, always need the city's permission before anyone trims them, and each city in Orange County sets its own rules for other trees.
