Free Tree Service Estimate: Quick Answers
Is the tree service estimate really free?
Yes. Every tree service estimate from EastLake is genuinely free and no-obligation, anywhere in the Atlanta metro. There is no trip charge, no deposit, and no pressure to book. ISA-Certified Arborist James walks your property, talks through your goals, and emails a written, itemized quote within one business day. You only pay if you approve the scope of work and schedule the job.
How long does a tree service estimate take?
Most on-site estimates take 15 to 30 minutes. James inspects each tree, checks for hazards or disease, measures clearance to structures and power lines, and discusses your priorities. Larger properties or jobs involving multiple trees, permits, or crane access can run 45 minutes to an hour. You receive the written quote by email within one business day so you have time to review pricing and scope.
Do I need to be home for the estimate?
You do not have to be home, but it helps. If the trees are visible from the street or accessible through an unlocked gate, James can complete the assessment on his own and follow up by phone or email. For backyard trees, fenced lots, or jobs where access and goals matter, we recommend being present so you can walk the property together and ask questions in person.
What does the estimate include?
Your written estimate spells out every line item: tree count and species, scope of work (pruning, removal, stump grinding, cabling, plant health care), crew size, equipment, debris hauling, and cleanup. We flag any City of Atlanta or DeKalb County permits required, note crane or traffic-control needs, and quote a firm price. Insurance certificates and our ISA Certified Arborist credentials are available on request.
