If you're in Western FFX, try Pinoak (https://www.pinoaktrees.com/) They're really reasonably priced, and do a very good job. They removed a lot of trees that died on us.

We like Adirondack Tree Experts - I feel like they give fair recommendations of what work is must do vs. nice to have done. Myers and Laws also good - they removed a couple of our trees. Agree with others - get multiple estimates and recommendations on how to deal with your issue.

kenny jenkins. great service and easy on the wallet.

Just paid $10k for removal of 80’ oak tree using a crane and stump grinding in MoCo (I had multiple estimates done and most were around this amount or more).

SavATree. Expensive but insured. You want them insured. They will grind stump. If roots are surface they can advise.

Stump grinding isn’t too bad. We had 3 big cypress and 1 Bradford pear removed. About $6000 total. Stump grinding was only about $800 of it.


They won’t deal with the roots, but those will die once your cut it down and grind the stump.

This sounds super cheap. We paid this price back in 2005.

Anywhere from $2k - $5k total depending on size of tree and accessibility. Make sure the company is bonded and insured. Last thing you want is some guy with a chainsaw who scopes out the neighborhood and who falls out of the tree and sues you. Try Dad's Tree Service, Bonilla, or J&L. Get at least 3 quotes to compare prices and go with what works best. Make sure you ask them to include stump grinding. They normally do the grinding within a week or two after the tree is cut down.

A tree service will usually be able to handle stump grinding too, but it will be an extra.

That's going to be $$$. It'll be cheaper to fix the cement.

OP here. I should mention that I am in Fairfax County.

We recently used this company to remove tresses with stump grinding and they were fantastic. https://www.beautifulcountryllc.com/

IME, they do not generally deal with root removal. Stump grinding is expensive too.

Whereabouts are you located? Maybe folks here can provide you with recommendations.

We are looking to cut down a tree. The roots of the tree are impacting the cement patio on our backyard, causing cracks and what not. Will a tree removal deal with the roots too? We'd want the stump grounded and all the roots removed. It's a very large tree. Does anyone have any recommendations and an idea of how much it should cost?
