Tree Removal Cost In San Antonio
Often times, we think about cost to the point where we put off some important things that we should be focusing on. The truth is that we need to address concerns in our lives as soon as possible—regardless of cost—and the same is true with tree care. When it comes to tree service cost, there are various factors involved in tree removals. First, there is obviously the size of the tree, which affects the amount of labor involved. Other conditions involved are the condition of the tree, the diameter of the tree trunk, and the tree’s location, as well. We will go through some more factors in estimating the cost to remove a tree—and keep in mind that this logic can also apply to stump removals as well.
If a tree is properly maintained, it can live for years, and trees are quite resilient. For example, even when it is swarmed with insects or infected with diseases, it can still live on for years if cared for properly. Of course, increased rot and decay can make it so that it is harder and harder for that tree to survive. If you are a business owner, the last thing you want is to have a commercial tree actually affecting the safety of your employees or customers—and have a potential lawsuit on your hands. All it takes is one call to San Antonio Tree Top Pros to change all that, and have the tree removed, and safety ensured.
Tree Removal
When it comes to cost, the larger your tree, the more it would cost to remove. For example, a small and young tree will cost much less to remove. In fact, all it might take is us removing the tree, placing it in a pickup truck for disposal, and leaving. Of course, this cannot be done with larger trees, that require more employees to do the job and plans to make sure that the tree is removed without causing personal injury or property damage.
The condition of a tree often affects the cost as well. If a tree is in a dangerous condition, that can affect the cost, and the equipment and tools used. Some of the factors that affect a tree’s condition are its “lean,” its history, how strong its branches are, how decayed it is, and more. Also, if a tree is extremely thick, it will take much more time and work to remove, which must reflect in the cost. After all, if a job takes several more hours, it will obviously cost much more. We also have to determine a plan for complete removal, and how to cut up the wood of the trunk and the other parts of the tree into manageable pieces. If your tree is also in a spot that is extremely hard to get to, that will affect the cost. If a tree is right by a certain structure, that also takes more work. For example, it’s much easier to remove a tree that isn’t near power lines or other buildings than a tree that is near both.
Finally, it’s important to note that tree stump removal is not included in the price of tree removal, because it requires different, specialized equipment. For more information, contact us at San Antonio Tree Top Service.
