Our Services
Two services are on offer through providers in our network. Tree removal covers dead, leaning, storm-hit and unwanted trees. Stump grinding clears what is left at ground level. Many providers do both, so you can ask for one plan and one quote.

Tree trouble in Los Gatos? Start here.
A tree that leans, cracks or drops limbs is a problem. Do not wait it out. Get it looked at.
Cellstouched Tree Service is a referral service. We connect Los Gatos homeowners with independent tree removal providers in our network. We do not cut, haul or grind anything ourselves. The provider does the work and sets the price.
Here is the short version of how it works.
- You tell us about the tree and the yard.
- A local provider reaches out about your job.
- You compare what you hear and what you are quoted.
- You decide. No obligation.
First time dealing with a tree this size? That is fine. Most people have never done it. This page walks you through the basics, in plain words.
If a tree is down or about to fall, request a callback to check provider availability. Providers set their own hours, so availability varies. Many providers can respond quickly to urgent jobs, including emergency tree removal after a storm.
Ask about stump grinding too. A stump left behind can sprout, hold water and trip people. Many providers offer both jobs, so you can plan them together.
Not urgent? Request an estimate instead. Take your time and compare.
How It Works
What Cellstouched Tree Service is
Cellstouched Tree Service is a referral service. That is all. You share your tree problem. We pass it to independent local providers in our network. They contact you, look at the job and give you a price.
We do not own trucks, saws or chippers. We do not send crews. We do not set prices. The provider does the work, and the provider answers for it.
Why compare first
One quote tells you little. Two or three tell you a lot. Prices differ because methods differ. One provider may climb and cut the tree in pieces. Another may bring a crane. Another may drop it whole if the yard allows. Each method has its own cost and its own risk to your roof, fence and plants.
Ask each provider the same questions:
- What exactly will you do, step by step?
- Are cleanup and hauling in the price?
- Is stump grinding included, or extra?
- How will you protect my roof, lawn and fence?
- Can I get the quote in writing?
Lay the answers side by side. Pick the one that makes sense. Or pick none.
If you are new to this
Never hired a tree provider? Here is the plain version. Tree work is risky. Rushed work can hurt people and property. Ask each provider about insurance and ask to see proof. Ask about permits too. Some cities require one for certain trees.
Typical U.S. prices for one tree run from a few hundred dollars to several thousand. Size, access and condition drive the number. Stump grinding is often priced on its own. Treat these as rough ranges and get a written quote.
Providers across the Los Gatos area
Cellstouched Tree Service focuses on Los Gatos, CA, and the towns around it. Providers in our network work across that region. Coverage depends on the provider, so not every provider serves every street.
Yards here vary. Older bungalows often sit on narrow lots with mature trees close to the house. Stucco ranch homes have roofs and walls near big canopies. Tract homes from the 1950s to the 1980s now have trees that were planted small and grew large. Roots near slabs, raised foundations and sewer lines are a common worry.
The weather adds pressure. Long dry seasons stress trees and dry out limbs. Winter rain softens the ground and loosens roots. Storms bring strong gusts. Wildfire smoke seasons raise worries about dead trees and dry growth near the house. Mild coastal temperatures keep many trees growing for most of the year.
Because of this, providers here often handle storm tree clearance, hazard trees and tight-access jobs.

What to know before you hire
Signs a tree should come down
- Dead branches at the top, or bark peeling off in sheets
- A lean that is new or getting worse
- Cracks in the trunk, or a hollow sound
- Mushrooms at the base
- Roots lifting a slab, path or driveway
One sign may not mean much. Several together do. Have a provider take a look.
When it is an emergency
A tree on a roof, a car or a power line is an emergency. Stay away from it. Keep kids and pets back. Treat any downed line as live and contact the utility. Then request a callback to check provider availability for emergency tree removal.
Storm tree clearance
After a big storm, limbs and trunks block drives and yards. Storm tree clearance means cutting and moving the pieces. Demand rises fast after bad weather, so expect some wait. Ask what is urgent and what can be scheduled.
Tree falling service, explained
A tree falling service takes a tree down in a planned way. The provider may drop it whole or take it down in sections with ropes or a crane. The right method depends on space, power lines and what sits below.
Stump grinding
A grinder chews the stump below ground level. Wood chips are left behind. Ask if they will be hauled or left as mulch. Roots may remain. Tell the provider if you plan to plant, build or lay turf.
What it may cost
In the U.S., small tree removal often runs a few hundred dollars. Large or hard-to-reach trees can reach several thousand. Stump grinding commonly runs from under a hundred to a few hundred dollars per stump. Every job differs. Get a written quote.
Permits and insurance
Some cities protect certain trees. Check local rules or ask the provider. Some policies may cover sudden damage from a fallen tree, so check your policy. Providers can often help document damage for a claim.
Getting ready
Move cars off the driveway. Clear patio furniture. Tell your neighbors. Point out gates, sprinklers and pipes. Keep pets inside.

Tree removal questions homeowners ask us
How much does tree removal cost?
Typical U.S. prices run from a few hundred dollars for a small tree to several thousand for a large or hard-to-reach one. Power lines, tight access, tree condition and cleanup all change the price. Stump grinding is often extra. Prices vary by provider and job, so request a written quote from more than one provider.
What counts as emergency tree removal?
It is urgent removal of a tree that has fallen or is about to. Think of a trunk on a roof, a blocked driveway or a split limb over the house. Stay clear, then request a callback to check provider availability. Many providers can respond quickly, but hours vary.
Should I grind the stump or leave it?
Grind it if you want a clear yard, new turf or a new tree. Stumps can sprout, attract pests and trip people. Leave it only if it is out of the way or you want it as a feature. Ask about stump grinding when you get quotes.
Do I need a permit to remove a tree?
Sometimes. Some cities protect certain trees by size or type. Check local rules or ask the provider. It is easy to settle before work starts.
Does homeowners insurance cover a fallen tree?
Some policies may cover sudden damage, such as a tree that falls on your house in a storm. Coverage differs, so check your policy. Removing a healthy tree is usually not covered. Providers can often help document damage for a claim. Ask your insurer before you hire.
