How much it cost to uproot a big tree?

Hmmm......I agree BUT when you have trees overshadowing the house and the roof doesn't get a chance to dry out after major rainstorms and very snowy winters, you end up with a roof that MUST be replaced, major leakage, and rotten wood. Sometimes it has to be done. We are now facing the problem and we may have to spend $10,000 plus to remedy this situation. Leaving trees up is NOT always the solution.
