Tree work is an investment in your home, not an expense. A hazardous oak hanging over your roof, a stump that's a tripping hazard, or a storm-torn limb blocking your driveway—these aren't optional. Jason Lewis and his crew have handled over a decade of these decisions for Grand Rapids families and businesses. With 25+ years of combined arborist experience, they price jobs fairly and don't pressure you into work you don't need.

Free estimates, no surprises

You won't hear a price over the phone or from a flyer. Every tree is different—its size, its location, how close it is to your house, what's growing under it, whether it's a removal or a trim. A real estimate means Jason or his crew walks your property, sees what they're working with, and gives you a number in writing. No hidden fees, no upsell at the end. From our Paris Ave SE yard, most of the metro is within 20 minutes in normal conditions.

Insurance often covers emergency removal

If a tree fell on your roof, deck, or car in a storm, homeowners insurance typically covers the removal—and we handle the insurance paperwork as part of the job. We also document everything with photos and a detailed report, which speeds up your claim. Preventive removal of a healthy but risky tree usually isn't covered, but we'll help you understand what your policy says.

Proper care protects your property value

A rotting tree, a storm-weakened limb, or a root that's cracking your foundation is a liability you can't ignore. Removing it, trimming it, or bracing it costs money now. Not addressing it costs more later: insurance claims, emergency room bills if a limb falls, or a buyer's inspector marking your house as risky. We've handled storm cleanups where the homeowner wished they'd called sooner. Being proactive saves.

Frequently Asked Questions

What does tree removal cost?

It varies by size, location, and risk. A 30-foot oak 10 feet from your roof costs more to remove safely than a dead pine in the back corner. That's why we don't quote over the phone. Get a free estimate and you'll know exactly what you're paying for.

Will insurance cover removal?

If a tree fell on a structure in a storm, homeowners insurance usually covers removal from the structure. Preventive removal of a standing tree typically isn't covered. We'll help you understand your policy and file the paperwork if a claim applies.

What adds cost to a job?

Size matters, but so does access and risk. A tree 50 feet tall next to a power line costs more to remove safely than one in an open field. Trees over structures, in tight yards, or with heavy equipment nearby require more time and care. We'll flag these on the estimate.

Why not just wait and hope?

A hazardous tree is liability. A storm damage claim, an injury, or a foundation crack all cost far more than preventive removal or trimming. We've seen it happen. Call early and let the free estimate guide your decision.

Can you finance the work?

We take the estimate and you work with your budget. Many customers use insurance claims, home equity lines, or payment plans through their bank. Call us at (616) 407-0044 with questions about your specific situation.

Do you respond 24/7 even for financing questions?

Yes—24/7 means we answer at 3 a.m. on Christmas. If you need to talk through cost options or ask what a job might run, pick up the phone anytime.
