Tree Removal Service in Chesapeake VA

 For homeowners in Chesapeake, Virginia, tree removal can be a tiresome and unnerving endeavor if you don't hire the right people. Nowadays, it's becoming more and more commonplace for residents to hire an amateur tree removal company they find on social media platforms rather than Google. While this approach to hiring a tree service company in Chesapeake can have its benefits, it also introduces a great many risk factors for the customer to consider. In the tree services business, you really do get what you pay for. So hiring some college kid on the cheap can actually set you both up for some major liability. It will be highly unlikely that he is licensed and insured or certified. So if he falls over from trimming your bushes with a hedger, not the end of the world. But if he takes a dive out of a 50 foot oak overhanging your driveway, different story.  This is why it's so important for customers to truly research local  tree removal companies  in Chesapeake and Virginia B

Tree Removal in the Swamps of Deep Creek- OY!

Performing tree removal in the swamps of Deep Creek Chesapeake is not for the faint of heart. Our team at Chesapeake Tree Guys learned this fun fact the first time showed up to the marshy mess. Some us (embarrassingly) thought we'd be safe in our work boots. HA! Some of us thought we'd be safe having 4-wheel drive. More HA! We had to learn very quickly how to operate our excavators properly using timber matting. Oh yeah, we found some duck waders too. This post is about navigating the murky mucky swamps of Deep Creek in Chesapeake VA and executing effective tree removal.  To give you an idea as to how we remove trees on a routine basis without any problems, we have had many clients tell us they would never hire anyone else for tree removal in Deep Creek, Virginia. That is just not true when you find out all the stuff they did not know before they hired us. We are happy to let them know that we do all the work up top and they simply call us if they have any problems. Chesapeake

Why Does The Species of Tree Affect the Cost of Tree Removal?

 At Chesapeake Tree Guys, we get this one quite a bit. We just quoted the customer $2,500 for full tree removal and stump grinding of their 40 foot Bradford pear. And since we did such an OUTSTANDING job at such a great price, they discover they have room in the budget for a few more items needing attention. "So how much to take down that one over there?" our beloved and curious customer inquires. "Same price, right? It's the same size after all, maybe even a bit smaller." Well, unfortunately, that slightly smaller tree is a Shagbark Hickory, and comes with an all new set of dangers and risk factors. So it's of no surprise that the customer goes into hyperdrive scoffing mode when we explain it will be almost double the price of the pear tree. But why?!  For starters, Shagbarks are notorious for their incredibly resilient bark structure. The bark acts as armor plating for the trunk itself, making unbearably difficult to "spike" and tie in to. In ad
