"Gordon Frazier tree service did a phenomenal job. They removed very large trees in a challenging environment surrounded by decks and awnings. They meticulously lowered every tree piece and took care to not damage anything. They finished ahead of schedule and by far had the best price around. We even added extra trees to the project and they obliged at a more than reasonable price. I would not hesitate to utilize their services again and would recommend them to anyone in need of tree service!"

"Hometown Tree experts were excellent from the start to end. Scheduling the free estimate to the actual removal was very smooth. Our guy who completed the estimate (Mark maybe?), Brandi at the office and the staff who removed the tree were exceptionally efficient and responsive. The quality of work and customer service were top notch."

"JL was actually recommended to us by another tree removal company, and we are very happy we went with them. The estimate guy came out quickly, the scheduling team was very responsive, and the team was professional and removed our 110ft+ tree on schedule. (They also had let us know we could get a discount if we waited til December, but we were very eager to have it removed before the next thunderstorm-tornado pairing rolls through.)"

"Axcobar did an excellent job on my property. Arrived promptly, wrote up an estimate for the many trees I needed taken down or trimmed up. Gave me a fair price. Arrived with a crew of 8 along with 28004 dump trucks, a stump grinder, large chipper, self-propelled grapple, chainsaws, trimmers, etc. All-day job. Excellent workmanship. Couldn’t be happier with the results and professionalism."

"I had contracted for a number of things to be removed and some remaining trees to be properly trimmed out. The work that was completed initially was excellent. Unfortunately, removal of some shrubs was missed (they came when I was not at home - common for this kind of service). Getting them rescheduled to complete the work took weeks - meanwhile, I can't get a landscaper in to start replanting the landscape. Their work quality is excellent - the scheduling issues not so much."
Ross Tree Service owns a bucket truck for the more complicated jobs. We also contract a crane company with a highly experienced crane operator.
Ross Tree Service has several stump grinders.

FAQs for tree service projects in Arlington, VA

Professionals remove shrubs by first cutting back the branches using tools like pruning shears or chainsaws for thicker stems. They then cut the base close to the ground and dig around the root system to remove the roots completely, preventing regrowth. Finally, they’ll ensure proper disposal of branches and debris while complying with local regulations.

A bush stump will regrow if any portion of its root system remains. When even a small section of roots is left behind, new shoots emerge and regenerate the bush with leggy, spreading growth. Working with a professional landscaper ensures the complete removal of the stump and all roots, which is essential to prevent any regrowth, ensuring that the area remains clear and maintenance is minimized.
