has anyone recently hired an arborist? I need to thin out a 90 ft, 100+ year oak and remove some dead branches. Anyone have an especially good (or bad) experience with a company that they'd recommend (or recommend avoiding)? Thanks!

1-913-268-6898 is Elite Tree. I would avoid huge companies like Arbor Masters. In our experience, costs are always about 25% more. I assume because of the overhead of being a large company.
Does anyone have a recommendation for a professional tree removal/trimming service? Not looking for a guy with a truck and a chainsaw.

We had two trees taken down and one stump removed. (743 Manheim Rd) Total 1250. One tree was huge, the other was average size. All other quotes were over $3000. Elite Tree Service Inc. www.EliteTree.com. 913-268-6898

I also recommend elite tree service- did a great job of trimming, cut down, and stump removal at almost half the price of 2 other tree companies I called.

Elite Tree service. No question. About 1/2 the price of everybody else for the neighborhood because everybody else wanted to use a boom truck (not possible in my backyard with power lines, 8' cleawrance between houses, etc!). Did a great job on 5 huge (60' tall?) trees for us. Our backyard still has 4 trees in it too!
Does anyone have a tree trimming company they would recommend?

Elite tree service. They've come twice for us, are great around the power lines and tight spaces in Hyde park. Also the least expensive of 3 quotes I got both times!
