General Tree Service Questions
Q: What areas do you serve?
A: We are based in Englewood, TN, and serve the surrounding East Tennessee communities, including Athens, Madisonville, Sweetwater, Etowah, and Tellico Plains.
Q: Are you licensed and insured?
A: Yes. Tony’s Tree Service is fully insured, protecting you and your property during every job. Safety and professionalism are top priorities.

A: Absolutely. We offer free, no-obligation estimates for all our services. Simply give us a call, and we’ll schedule a convenient time to assess your needs.
Tree Trimming and Pruning
Q: How often should I have my trees trimmed?
A: Most trees benefit from trimming every 1–3 years, depending on their species, age, and condition. Some ornamental trees may require more frequent maintenance.
Q: What’s the best time of year to trim trees?
A: While light pruning can be done anytime, winter and early spring are generally the best seasons for major trimming. This reduces stress on the tree and encourages healthy growth.
Q: Will trimming harm my tree?
A: Not when it’s done correctly. Our trained professionals know exactly where and how to cut branches to promote health and maintain the tree’s natural shape.
Tree Removal
Q: How do I know if a tree needs to be removed?
A: Signs include dead or dying branches, a leaning trunk, visible root damage, or large cracks. We can perform a hazard assessment to determine the safest solution.
Q: Do you remove large trees close to houses or power lines?
A: Yes. We have the equipment and expertise to safely remove trees in tight or dangerous spaces, using cranes, rigging, and careful dismantling methods.
Q: What happens to the tree after it’s removed?
A: We can cut it into logs for you, chip the branches, or haul everything away—whichever you prefer.
Storm Damage Services
Q: Do you offer emergency storm damage cleanup?
A: Yes. We provide 24/7 emergency response for fallen trees, broken limbs, and storm debris. Just call us anytime.
Q: Can you work with my insurance company?
A: We can provide documentation, photos, and detailed service reports to help with insurance claims. Check with your provider for specific requirements.
Q: How quickly can you arrive after a storm?
A: Response time depends on weather conditions and call volume, but we prioritize urgent hazards and aim to arrive as quickly as possible.
Stump Grinding and Removal
Q: Do you remove stumps after cutting down a tree?
A: Yes. We offer stump grinding to remove the stump below ground level, allowing you to replant or use the space for landscaping.
Q: Is stump grinding better than stump removal?
A: Grinding is faster, less invasive to your yard, and more affordable. Full removal involves digging up the entire root system, which can be more disruptive.
Q: Will the stump grow back after grinding?
A: In most cases, no. Grinding removes the majority of the stump and root crown, preventing regrowth.
Pricing and Estimates
Q: How much does tree service cost?
A: Pricing varies depending on the size of the tree, location, complexity, and service type. We provide detailed, transparent quotes before starting any work.
Q: Do you charge for travel?
A: No, we do not charge extra for travel within our normal service area.
Q: Can I get an estimate over the phone?
A: We can provide a ballpark figure, but for accuracy, we prefer to see the tree in person to assess the job.
Safety and Professionalism
Q: Is tree service dangerous?
A: Yes, tree work can be hazardous, especially when dealing with large or damaged trees. That’s why it’s important to hire trained, insured professionals like us.
Do you clean up after the job?
A: Always. We leave your property neat, safe, and free from debris when we finish.
Q: What equipment do you use?
A: Depending on the job, we use bucket trucks, cranes, chippers, stump grinders, and professional climbing gear.
