Frequently Asked Questions
How much does tree removal cost in Madison?
Tree removal costs in Madison typically range from $400 to $2,000 depending on the tree's size, location, accessibility, and condition. Large or hazardous trees requiring specialized equipment will be on the higher end of this range. We provide free on-site estimates to give you an accurate price based on your specific situation.
Do I need a permit to remove a tree on my property in Madison?
Yes, Madison has specific regulations regarding tree removal. Generally, a permit is required for removing trees over a certain size (typically 8 inches in diameter or larger). Our team can help you navigate the permitting process and ensure all work is completed in compliance with local regulations.
What's the best time of year for tree trimming in Madison?
The ideal time for tree trimming in Madison is during the dormant season (late winter to early spring) before new growth begins. However, dead, diseased, or hazardous branches should be removed immediately regardless of season. For flowering trees, it's best to wait until after they bloom to avoid disrupting their natural cycle.
How long does stump grinding take?
Most stump grinding projects take between 30 minutes to 3 hours to complete, depending on the stump size, root system, and soil conditions. Our specialized equipment can handle most stumps efficiently, and we always clean up thoroughly after the job is complete.
How quickly can you respond to emergency tree situations?
Our emergency response team is available 24/7 and typically arrives within 1-4 hours of your call, depending on current demand and weather conditions. We prioritize situations where trees pose immediate risks to people or property and bring all necessary equipment to secure the area quickly.
