"Outstanding! This will be a bit lengthy, but it's worth the read. BACKGROUND - Professional Tree Service (henceforth known as "PTS") did some work for our next door neighbor. The work went smoothly and efficiently. I'm unschooled in the arboristic arts, but the crew also seemed to get tasks completed safely. For me however, the topping (pardon the pun :-) on their work was the final cleanup. They cleaned up the primary work area (expected, of course). Then they also notified the adjacent neighbor - ME! - that they would clean up work debris from my adjoining property, if I approved. OF COURSE I approved! The crew cleared our driveway and street frontage of ALL work debris. Most impressive. I asked for their business card. A couple of months passed.... MY TREE JOB - I was planning to have between 1 - 6 medium pines removed. I called PTS and received a quick response and a reasonable estimate. By prior arrangement, the work was completed while we were away from home. I am 100% satisfied with the completed job, and will readily recommend PTS to anyone in need to tree work. Thank you, PTS; To use an old Navy term - "Bravo Zulu.""

"Erik and Molly came out to take a look. They could not have been more professional. Erik handed over a copy of their license, liability insurance and workman's comp insurance and told me he was an arborist. He quoted an excellent price (I had gotten 4 others) and told me that his crew would hand-carry all the trees to my driveway, so as not to tear up the yard with heavy equipment. On the day of, they showed up 15 minutes early for the 8 AM start time, with 12 men and 3 chipper trucks, to avoid any waits while the trucks dumped their debris. The men went to work immediately, scaling trees, cutting down limbs, felling trees (which were expertly aimed) and literally *running* the pieces into the chipper, for hours at a time. They took a couple of well-deserved breaks, including lunch, and had everything done by 5:00. By then, every piece of debris had been raked up and removed from the yard, and my driveway and stone patio had been swept clean. Erik had said that I won't pay a cent until I'm fully satisfied that everything was done as promised. There wasn't a thing that needed correction. I'd use them again in a heartbeat."

"Robert and his team arrived promptly at 8:00am, worked all day till 7:00pm. They left our yard cleaned of all debris and stacked the wood for us to be used later as firewood. Excellent work, very reasonable cost, and professional. M&L will be our go-to service for future tree trimming and removal projects. We recommend them very highly."

"Paramount did an excellent job! Courteous, helpful and friendly service. They were very respectful of my property and handled the job professionally. Great pricing for cutting down my tree, hauling and stump grinding ( one price for all 3). I've already recommended them and would definitely use them again if the need arises."

Customers say: Quick response

"I contacted three different tree services to quote my job. The first never showed up, the second showed up three-sheets into the wind and then there was Patrica with AAA Union Tree Service. Within thirty minutes of placing my request on Angi, she sent me a text asking if she could come quote the job. Before the day was out, I had a written quote in my hand. Patricia was in the middle of a big apartment job but kept me abreast by text when they should be able to start. Her crew did a wonderful job and her associate Brenda was also very helpful in advising on how to update the exterior of the home and even brought out a beautiful shrub to show me. I can't say enough how please I am with the results of their work. I also received additional quotes before they left as I plan on making AAA Union Tree Service my go-to for all my landscaping needs! They were wonderful!"

"This team exceeded my expectations. They were very professional, I had 2 very large challenging trees close to my house. They worked together and finished way before they had expected to do. They cleaned up every piece of trash from the falling trees. They are so very pleasant , I could not ask for better business than these guys. Their prices were very reasonable compared to many other quotes I had gotten. I highly recommend Bear Tree Care and Landscaping."

FAQs for tree service projects in Columbia, SC

Palm tree removal expenses range from $150 to $1,500, with pricing primarily determined by the tree's height and accessibility. Removing taller specimens requires specialized equipment and safety protocols, pushing costs toward the upper end of this range. Stump grinding represents an additional expense of $175 to $550 if needed. Obtaining multiple removal estimates helps ensure competitive pricing for your specific situation.

Palm growth rates vary considerably by species, with most gaining approximately one to two feet annually under favorable conditions. You'll notice substantial development within three to five years after planting. Many varieties reach their characteristic appearance within seven to 10 years. The aesthetic enhancement to your property increases progressively as the palm matures, potentially adding considerable curb appeal and landscape value.

Several palm varieties demonstrate impressive cold tolerance for non-tropical environments. The needle palm ranks among the hardiest options, capable of surviving brief temperature drops to surprisingly low levels. Depending on size and availability, cold-resistant varieties cost between $100 and $300. Strategic placement in protected locations and appropriate winter protection measures significantly improve survival rates in challenging climates.

Professional palm trimming services cost between $100 and $1,500 per tree. This wide price range reflects variations in palm height, frond density, and access challenges. Taller specimens require specialized equipment and greater safety precautions, significantly increasing service costs. Most palm varieties benefit from annual or semi-annual maintenance to remove dead fronds and seed pods while maintaining an attractive appearance.
