As a locally owned and operated business, we pride ourselves on delivering exceptional service and attention to detail. Contact us today for professional and reliable lawn fertilization and treatment services.

"More Like Eastern 1/3 of your lawn Maintenance! I watched my service provider on Ring cameras perform service on 3,600 square feet and ignore the front and side lawns, 6,200 square feet. But my bill reflected 10,000 square feet of service. When I called to question this, they didn't seem to care and I canceled my account. Then I got a p*****-off call from the guy who serviced my lawn (which I did not request), trying to justify the lack of work done on my property. I am still waiting on a call from the 'office manager' about making this right, but I doubt that will come. Attached is an image from the untreated portion of the property, that was nice green grass a year ago (and 1,500 bucks ago) and now it's not doing so well, I wonder what it would have looked like had it been properly serviced!!!"

CS Tree Services is a fully-insured tree service company serving the Raleigh, Cary, Apex, Fuquay Varina, Durham, Chapel Hill, Pittsboro, and Sanford areas for the past 15 years. We know how important your trees are to your landscaping, property value, and quality of life. Our services include tree removal, tree trimming/pruning, stump grinding, tree health care, and integrated pest management. As an owner-operated company, we recognize the qualities that customers look for in a professional tree service. "CS" stands for Chris and Steve, the company owners and long-time best friends, who personally handle all quotes and tree assessments. Training our employees and nurturing a culture of safety is our highest priority. We believe safety and quality go hand in hand, and our customers recognize this, as they continue to recommend CS Tree Services to everyone they meet. We have five ISA-certified arborists on staff, and our tight-knit professional team will get your job done cleanly and beautifully- and for a reasonable price. We are proud of our 5-star customer rating and work hard to maintain it. But don’t take it from us, see our reviews!

"We had multiple trees removed from our properties and we chose CS Tree Services because of their prior work for us a few years ago and their reasonable price. They used grapple crane to remove old tall pines from the backyard and the work was done extremely efficient. We are quite pleased with the neat work, pleasant interaction with the crew members and especially amazed with the equipment/machines. Their A300 pruning service was excellent not only in the artistic point of view especially for our willow oak on our front yard, but also in clearing the tree structure and the space between tree and house. They also accommodated our additional request for clearing the Leyland Cypress trees along the yard free of charge for which we are thankful. They did very deep grinding of tree stumps and so neat that we can hardly recognized the spot where we had a dead old prune tree along the curbside. We will definitely request their service again if we have more trees to be removed and pruned."

ISA Certified Arborist and TCIA certified tree care specialists on staff, with over 20 years of experience. We provide expertise, quality, and customer service to meet the consumers needs. It is our mission to provide excellent complete customer satisfaction from start to completion of a project. In order to understand the needs and expectations of our customers, we take great care to work and communicate with every costumer in a professional manner. Our reputation is based on service, safety, and quality, regardless of how large or small the job.

"After attempting to get quotes through Angie’s List from various companies that prune and remove trees, BroadLeaf Tree & Shrub was one of only a few that even bothered to get back with me; apparently, pruning trees right now is not the highest priority for many tree companies. I needed to hire a company to prune back a tree that was giving squirrels access to my roof, and thus, to my attic. That said, BroadLeaf did not give me the least expensive, nor the most expensive, quote; however, they did give me the most "bang for the buck" quote, focusing the work on the Oak tree that needed it. (Another tree company wanted to remove only a couple of limbs from the Oak, and then do some work on a Maple tree in my front yard which was not a real issue at this time - basically, an easier job for them.) When I met with Blake Mills on November 23, 2020, he was genuinely nice and professional, and was willing to answer all my questions; he provided his expert opinion on what needed to be done, which was in line with some of the more expensive quotes. He also recommended one limb of the tree be removed to prevent squirrels from getting onto my neighbor's roof; I actually expected this advice, but a couple of company reps did not give it, either because they were afraid of sounding too pushy or wanted a second job – along with another minimum fee. What really made BroadLeaf stand out was once Blake knew that I needed to move quickly on this project, as I will be replacing my roof immediately after this job, he was able to get me onto their job schedule today, December 10! (Most companies were not willing to schedule anything before January or February, 2021.) The crew that came out was on time, if not a bit early; I give kudos to any company that is on time! They removed the limbs originally indicated on the quote, but then also removed a couple of other branches that they thought would have allowed the squirrels to get onto either my roof or my neighbor's roof; this additional work was done without charging extra! They disposed all the tree limbs and debris, leaving the job site cleaner than when they arrived (yes, it is that time of year with a lot of Oak leaves on the ground). In the few hours since the work has been completed, and me writing this review, I have already given a verbal recommendation for BroadLeaf Tree & Shrub. As you can guess, I highly recommend them; I would use them again in the future if needed."

FAQs for tree service projects in Wake Forest, NC

Palm tree stump removal costs $175 to $550, with pricing dependent on stump diameter and root complexity. Larger stumps with extensive root systems command higher fees. Grinding, which shreds the stump below ground level, is more economical than complete extraction. Your future landscaping intentions should guide your decision between these approaches. Discuss both methods with your tree service provider to determine which best suits your needs and budget.

Permit regulations for palm tree removal vary considerably between municipalities. Local governments charge $40 to $200 for removal authorization, with fees varying based on tree characteristics and local ordinances. Protected species may require additional documentation or expert assessment. Contact your local planning department or building authority before scheduling removal to understand specific requirements and avoid potential penalties for unauthorized tree removal.

Healthy, desirable palm varieties occasionally have resale value, though finding buyers willing to handle transplantation can prove challenging. Depending on tree size and complexity, transplanting services cost between $400 and $5,000. While selling might offset some expenses, realistic expectations are important as the transplant market fluctuates significantly. Contact local landscapers or nurseries to gauge interest before committing to this approach.

Palm tree removal duration varies based on tree dimensions and site conditions. Smaller palms under 30 feet require just a few hours, while larger specimens may need a full day or more. Factors like proximity to structures, access limitations, and weather conditions can extend timeframes. Professional crews work systematically to ensure safety throughout the process, so flexibility in scheduling helps accommodate any unexpected challenges.

Palm trees growing near utility lines present serious safety concerns. Contact your local municipality to determine if assistance programs exist for trees threatening public infrastructure. Professional tree services with utility line experience should handle these removals, as they understand proper safety protocols and coordination requirements. Never attempt to trim or remove trees near power lines yourself, as this presents extreme danger of electrical injury.

Standard homeowners' policies often exclude routine palm tree removal costs. However, if a storm or covered incident damages your palm tree, causing it to fall or threaten structures, insurance may contribute toward removal expenses. Coverage generally applies when the tree damages insured property or blocks essential access. Review your specific policy details and thoroughly document the tree's condition if filing a claim. For elective removal of healthy trees, budget for out-of-pocket expenses.
