[quote=Anonymous]They don't do it to save money or because they hate trees, that is for sure. For our new construction house in fairfax county, we had to pay extra to get several large trees outside the limits of clearing taken down. These trees were in bad shape and would have needed to come down in the next 5-10 years anyways, and it is more affordable to do this when you already have the lot clear with heavy construction equipment on site. That said, the county arborists make you replace the tree canopy that is removed, so now we have to plant 12 new trees on the lot at even more cost. [/quote]
