Tuesday 02 April 2024

Would you like to build a nice terrace or a pond where there is currently a tree? Then there is no other option than to cut down the tree. How much do you pay to have a tree felled, how does the price come about and what do you have to take into account? You can read all about it in this article.

Tree felling price

The cost of felling a tree can vary from €400 to €800. How much you pay depends first and foremost on the size of the tree. The table below gives more information:

Tree felling price per tree

*These are indicative prices based on jobs previously carried out. The final costs may differ from the invoice you receive from us.

Felling a small tree

When it comes to a young, small tree, in most cases the work is relatively simple. What is important, however, is the space around the tree so that it can fall without damaging other elements in the garden. If this is the case, the price for felling a small tree will be around €400.

Cutting down a medium-sized tree

When it comes to removing a medium-sized tree, the professional gardener will need more time to do the job. And that is why you will pay a bit more for it. On average you will pay about € 600 for felling a medium-sized tree.

Cutting down large trees

A large, old tree is more difficult to remove than a young one. That is logical. The gardener will have much more work to cut down the entire tree. The cost of felling these trees depends mainly on the space available. When the tree is close to many garden elements and plants, the gardener has to be very careful and that costs more time and therefore more money. The cost of felling a large tree with little space around it is approximately €800.
