Common Questions

Fairfax County Tree Service FAQ

Answers to the questions Fairfax County homeowners ask us most. Don’t see yours? Call us at (703) 659-8733, 24/7.

What types of tree services do you offer in Northern VA?

We provide complete tree care in Northern Virginia, including tree removal, emergency tree service, tree trimming and pruning, stump grinding, and land clearing. Our ISA Certified Arborists ensure every job meets industry safety and quality standards.

How quickly can you respond to an emergency tree situation?

Our emergency tree removal crew is usually on the way within 15 minutes and typically on site within 1–2 hours. We secure the area first, then remove the hazardous trees or limbs.

Are you licensed and insured for tree service in Northern VA?

Yes, Grant Brothers Tree Service is fully licensed and insured. We follow ANSI A300 and Z133 safety standards, so you can trust our team to work safely and professionally on your property.

Can you remove a large tree close to my house?

Yes. We take big trees down in small, controlled pieces with ropes and rigging, and we bring in a crane when the job calls for it. We plan every cut to protect your house, roof and yard.

What areas of Northern VA do you serve?

We serve all of Fairfax County and nearby towns from our locations in Chantilly and Tysons. That includes Fairfax, Vienna, Oakton, Great Falls, McLean, Reston, Herndon, Springfield, Burke, Ashburn, Sterling and Leesburg. See the full list on our service area page.

How often should I schedule tree trimming or pruning?

Most trees in Northern Virginia benefit from trimming every 2–3 years to maintain health, shape, and safety. Our arborists can assess your trees and recommend the best schedule for your landscape.

How much does tree removal cost in Fairfax County?

We price each tree after we see it, and the estimate is free. The size of the tree, its health and what’s around it set the price. You get the price in writing before we start.

Do I need a permit to remove a tree in Fairfax County?

Usually not, for a single tree on your own lot. You may need county approval if the tree is in a Resource Protection Area near a stream or in a conservation easement. Projects that disturb more than 2,500 square feet need a permit too. HOAs, the City of Fairfax and towns like Vienna and Herndon have their own rules. Read our Fairfax County tree permit guide.

What should I do if a tree falls on my house?

Get everyone away from the damage. If anyone is hurt, call 911. If a power line is down, stay far away and call 911 and your power company. Take photos from a safe spot. Then call us 24/7 at (703) 659-8733. Read what happens when a tree falls on a house.

How can I tell if a tree is dangerous?

Watch for dead or hanging branches, deep cracks, mushrooms at the base, or a new lean with lifted soil. If you see any of these, book a complimentary visual health assessment and our arborists will take a look.

When is the best time to prune trees in Northern Virginia?

Late winter, from January to March, is best for most trees. Prune spring-flowering trees right after they bloom. Remove dead or hanging limbs right away, any time of year. More on pruning season.

Do you grind the stump and clean up after a removal?

Yes. We grind most stumps 6 to 12 inches below the ground. Then we haul the chips away or leave them for mulch, your choice.

Do you work for builders and businesses?

Yes. Besides homeowners, we clear lots for builders and handle tree work for businesses across Fairfax County. See our land clearing services.

What is ATCP certification?

It’s a certification from the Association of Tree Care Professionals (ATCP), a national group that raises tree care standards through education and safety. Grant Brothers’ lead arborist is Virginia’s first ATCP-Certified Professional Arborist (#5 in the U.S.). Read the press release.

Can a cracked or split tree be saved?

Sometimes. Cables and braces can support a weak or split tree so it can stay. Our arborists check the tree first and tell you if cabling will work or if removal is the better call. See our cabling and bracing services.
