"Landis Bunton, East Coast Tree Service, LLC, arrived at our home, quickly assessed that the 2 dead trees needed to go and a water oak as dying and should be felled. He quoted $1,000, a remarkably low number based on our past experience, and expected he could do the work in 2 weeks. We called him after 5 days as some of our plans had changed and asked whether he could get to the work sooner. He promised a callback and shortly committed to the next day at 8:30am, exceeding our expectations. Next day on time his bucket truck, chipper, tractor and grinder showed up with a crew of 5-6 very professional workmen who got right to work. They felled the water oak with the bucket truck and ropes so that adjacent structures were not damaged while crews dropped the 2 dead oaks. All wood not chipped was cut to fireplace size and the smaller pieces chipped and left for us. I had done some tree trimming and my wife asked if a little more wood could be cut away which they did at no charge. All workmen I talked with were personable and willing to answer my questions. After 3 hours Landis showed to confirm our satisfaction and receive payment. He offered to deliver more wood chips when he was in the area at no charge. Landis runs a very professional operation, and I recommend him highly."

FAQs for tree service projects in Smoaks, SC
You might remove a tree for free if it’s small, easy to reach, and your city doesn’t require a permit. Call the planning or public works office first to be sure. If they give you the green light, follow all safety rules, wear protective gear, and ask a friend to spot you. When in doubt—or if the tree is tall—hire a pro instead.
In many cities, you’ll need a permit—sometimes even an arborist’s report—before cutting down a tree. Start by calling your local building or planning department. They’ll tell you whether the tree is protected, how big it can be before a permit kicks in, and whether the work has to be done by a licensed pro. Get written approval before scheduling the job to stay on the right side of local rules.
It’s best to leave healthy trees alone—they add shade, boost curb appeal, and support wildlife. Take one down only if it’s dead, diseased beyond saving, or posing a real safety risk. Check local rules first; many areas protect heritage or street trees.
When removal seems necessary, bring in a licensed arborist for an on-site assessment and written recommendation before you book the crew.
If you’re torn between trimming, pruning, or full removal, start with an honest health check. Trim to shape the canopy or encourage new growth. Prune when you spot broken or diseased branches that could spread trouble.
Plan on removal only if the trunk is hollow, several major limbs are dead, storm damage is extensive, or the tree leans dangerously toward a structure.
A tree that’s 15 to 20 feet from your home isn’t automatically a problem. Healthy, small species often coexist just fine with houses. Trouble starts when the trunk shows decay, roots crack the foundation, or overhanging branches threaten the roof. Bring in a licensed arborist for a close look and written recommendation before you decide to remove or simply prune.
Timing hinges on size and complexity. A small tree might be gone in a few hours, a mid-sized one in half a day, and a giant could keep the crew busy for one to two full workdays. Add extra time if you’re grinding the stump, hauling wood, or navigating tight spaces near power lines or fences.
