Insane! More than lawyers charge.
3 live oaks. Med. size. Light trimming needed. Guess-ta-mate 3.5 to 4 hours labor. No haul off required.
Estimates ranging $800 to $1200.
Craziness.

1 - 2- Tree based in Flower Mound just did mine.
One HUGE Lacy Elm, one large Red Oak about 35 feet tall, and one med size live oak. None had been trimmed in 10 years since I bought the house so they were a mess.
$550 plus tax. all done!
They had an 9 man crew!! 3 of them were climbers, up in the trees with chain saws, two had long poles with chain saws on the end the rest on clean up. They were done in an hour flat. Trees look great.
Highly Recommend them but I do not think they go far out of the Lewisville, Flower Mound, Highland Village area.
**99% sure they will not go to Temple Texas

Just had three good sized live oaks trimmed as well as a few Bradford pear limbs, all shredded up and hauled off for $950. These guys were roped off and way up it the trees trimming with chainsaws. No way I could do it. Took them just over an hour

Mother nature will take care of it in time. That's what I'm thinking, but concerned about roof line and power lines.

One of my clients does tree work...he makes more doing that than he will when he gets his engineering degree....not fun work, but he enjoys it....but he really likes doing mechanical engineering,so that's what he's going to do.
