Tree Trimming

Regular trimming keeps a tree balanced, clears branches away from your roof, fence and driveway, and cuts the risk of limbs coming down in a Santa Ana wind. Our crew chips the debris on site before we leave.

Tree Removal

When a tree is dead, dying, leaning toward the house or simply in the wrong place, we take it down safely. In tight yards we climb and remove it in sections, then cut the trunk into rounds and haul the wood away.

Palm Tree Trimming & Skinning

Palms need regular attention in Southern California. Dead fronds and seed pods drop on cars and walkways and are a fire risk. Our climbers trim and skin tall palms, and the ground crew chips the fronds before we leave.

Stump Grinding

A leftover stump is a trip hazard, attracts pests and gets in the way of new landscaping. We grind it down below the surface with a dedicated stump grinder and leave the area ready for soil, sod or pavers.

Tree Thinning, Pruning & Care

Thinning opens up a heavy canopy so wind passes through instead of catching it, and careful pruning removes dead, weak or crossing branches before they fail. It's the ongoing care that keeps a mature tree healthy for years.

Didn't see your question? Call (909) 684-6220

How much does tree trimming cost in Fontana?

Tree trimming from FR Tree Service starts at $300, and every job gets a free quote before work begins. The final price depends on the tree's size and height, how much needs to come off, how easy it is to reach, and how much debris there is to chip and haul.

How much does tree removal cost in the Inland Empire?

Tree removal from FR Tree Service starts at $500. Large trees, trees next to houses or power lines, and trees that have to come down in sections cost more because they take more climbing, rigging and time. Stump grinding can be added to the same visit.

Do you give free tree service estimates?

Yes. FR Tree Service gives free quotes on trimming, removal, palm work and stump grinding. Call (909) 684-6220 or send the online form.

Do you offer 24/7 emergency tree service?

Yes. FR Tree Service takes emergency calls 24/7 for fallen trees, broken limbs and trees on houses, cars, fences or driveways. Call (909) 684-6220.

Do you offer discounts?

Yes. FR Tree Service offers 10% off for new customers, 10% off for seniors and 10% off for veterans. Mention it when you ask for your quote.

Can you remove a tree in a small backyard?

Yes. FR Tree Service removes trees in tight spaces by climbing the tree and taking it down in sections, lowering the pieces carefully so nothing hits the house, fence or neighbors.

Do you clean up after the job?

Yes. FR Tree Service crews chip branches on site with a commercial chipper and load the wood and debris into our truck, so your yard is left clean.

How often should palm trees be trimmed?

Most palms in Southern California need dead fronds and seed pods removed about once a year. Avoid over-trimming: cutting off healthy green fronds weakens the palm.

What areas does FR Tree Service serve?

FR Tree Service serves about 30 miles around Fontana, including Fontana, Rialto, Rancho Cucamonga, Ontario, Upland, San Bernardino, Redlands, Yucaipa and more across the Inland Empire. Not sure if you're in range? Call (909) 684-6220.
