HOW IT WORKS

01 | Free On-Site Consultation

Jen or a member of our team visits your property to assess the tree, discuss your goals, and identify any hazards or access challenges before anything else.

You get a straightforward written estimate with no hidden fees. We explain exactly what we'll do, how we'll protect your property, and what to expect on the day of the job.

03 | Safe, Professional Removal

Our experienced crew removes the tree safely and efficiently using the right equipment for the job — whether it's a straightforward drop or a technical piece-by-piece removal near a structure.

04 | Full Cleanup & Haul-Away

We clean up completely — all brush, wood, and debris is removed and your yard is left looking better than we found it. Stump grinding is available as an add-on.

Tree Removal — FAQs

How much does tree removal cost in Bucks County, PA?

There is no flat rate — cost depends on the tree's size, its location on the property, how accessible it is for equipment, and its condition. A large hardwood leaning over a house costs considerably more to remove than a small tree in an open yard, because it takes more rigging, more time, and more crew. We give you a firm, itemized price during a free on-site estimate before any work is scheduled, and that price is what you pay — no surprise charges at the end.

Do I need a permit to remove a tree in Bucks or Montgomery County?

It depends on your municipality. Many Bucks and Montgomery County townships and boroughs have no permit requirement for removing a tree on private residential property, but some regulate trees in riparian buffers, on steep slopes, in historic districts, or above a certain trunk diameter. HOAs frequently have their own rules on top of that. Check with your township or borough office before scheduling, and we'll work around whatever your municipality requires.

Do you remove trees close to houses and power lines?

Yes. Removals near structures are a large share of our work — we section trees down in controlled pieces and rig limbs so nothing drops uncontrolled onto a roof, fence, or landscaping. For trees that are too large or too tight to take down by hand, we use crane-assisted removal. Lines owned by the utility running to the street are the utility's responsibility; we'll tell you when a call to them needs to come first.

Does tree removal include the stump and the cleanup?

Cleanup and debris haul-away are always included — your yard is left clean, not covered in brush. Stump grinding is a separate service, because not everyone wants it. If you do want the stump gone, we can grind it below grade at the same visit; just say so when you get your estimate and we'll price both together.

TESTIMONIAL

Some reviews reference O'Brien Family Tree Service, our former name — same family, same team.

Did an excellent job removing three, large, Locust Trees from my back yard on November 2-3, 2018. It was very easy working with Tom O'Brien and his daughter Jennifer. The tree removal crew were professional. O'Brien Family Tree Service is also used by the Homeowner's Association in the development in which I live.

I have used O'Brien Family Tree Service for many years, and they never disappoint. The crew is great, their prices are reasonable, and it's easy to get a quote and make an appointment. A very professional company and staff.

Truly awesome experience! They removed 4 very large trees in one day. My property looked like they were never there. Except the trees were gone! One tree was very close to my neighbors fence and they removed it and ground the stump with no impact on the fence. Highly recommend!

We are very appreciative of the excellent service provided by O'Brien Family Tree Service. From our initial contact to the estimate provided to the actual tree trimming work completed by the crew, we could not be more pleased. We felt as though the price was quite reasonable considering the work that needed to be done. The crew arrived when we were told they would and they were extremely efficient in completing the job. All of the guys were polite and professional and they did a great job cleaning up. Without a doubt, I will recommend O'Brien Family Tree Service to others. This is the second time we have used O'Brien and I will be sure to call again should we have more tree work to be done in the future. Thank you for being a great resource for us and for our community.

I can't say enough about O'Brien Family Tree Service! From start to finish, our experience with them was exceptional. We needed 2 large trees and 1 large Holly bush removed on our property. They also did 2 stump grindings for us. The work was professional and efficient, and the price was very reasonable! They not only made sure they were safe while doing the work, they took precautions to protect our house as well. What I appreciated most was the communication. From the initial consultation on, we knew exactly what was getting done, when and why. We will be recommending O'Brien Family Tree Service to all our friends and family.
