Question 1

How much does tree removal cost?

Accepted Answer

It depends on the tree's size and height, the species, how close it is to your house or power lines, the condition, and whether you want the stump ground and debris hauled. That is why our quote is free and based on the actual tree. We give you a clear written price with no guessing and no surprises.

Question 2

Are you licensed and insured?

Accepted Answer

Yes, fully. Tree work carries real risk and you should never let an uninsured crew on your property. We will gladly provide proof of insurance.

Question 3

Will you wreck my lawn and landscaping?

Accepted Answer

No. We plan the work to protect your property, and for big or tight jobs we use a crane to lift sections over the yard instead of dragging equipment across it. Our customers say it best: we clean up so well you can barely tell we were there.

Question 4

How fast can you get here?

Accepted Answer

We are known for fast, dependable response. You get a free quote within 24 hours, and for storm or hazard emergencies, call us and we will tell you straight how soon we can be there.

Question 5

A storm dropped a tree on my house. Does insurance cover it?

Accepted Answer

Often yes, when a tree falls on a covered structure due to a covered peril like wind. Coverage and caps vary by policy. We respond fast, make the scene safe, and document the damage with photos and a written scope so you have exactly what you need for your claim.

Question 6

My tree is huge and right next to the house. Can you do it safely?

Accepted Answer

Yes, that is our specialty. Big, leaning, or tight-access trees are a crane job, and a crane lifts heavy sections over your property safely instead of risking the structure. If another company said your tree is too risky, that usually means it is exactly the job for us.

Question 7

Do I need a permit to remove a tree?

Accepted Answer

Some West Michigan municipalities require permits for certain removals, like large trees or street and right-of-way trees. We know the local rules and will tell you if your job needs a permit and help you sort it out.

Question 8

Will you actually call me back?

Accepted Answer

Yes. That is the whole reason Ole Man RB's exists. One customer called 10 companies and we were the only one to give both a quote and a timeline. We answer the phone, we follow up, and we show up.

Question 9

What areas do you serve?

Accepted Answer

Belding, Rockford, Greenville, Grand Rapids, and surrounding West Michigan, including Ionia, Lowell, Cedar Springs, Sparta, Lakeview, Stanton, and Sheridan. If you do not see your town, just ask, chances are we are nearby.
