They charge a small fee for a consult/estimate, but it was well worth it. Keith spent a lot of time discussing our tree situation as well as offering advice about other tree, schrub, and lawn issues. The tree removal itself was very efficient and the cleanup was great. Their cost was the same as another major tree service.
