Tree Cutting Services

Complete Tree Removal Service Included

Every tree removal includes professional assessment, safe cutting techniques, and thorough cleanup. We handle permit applications when required and coordinate with utility companies for trees near power lines.

Lakeview’s older neighborhoods often have large trees close to houses and property lines. We use specialized rigging equipment to remove trees in tight spaces without damaging structures, fences, or neighboring properties.

Stump grinding is available as an add-on service. Most homeowners choose this option to eliminate trip hazards and free up space for new landscaping. We can also leave logs for firewood if you prefer.

How do I know if my tree needs to be removed?

Dead or dying trees show obvious signs like bare branches during growing season, peeling bark, or mushrooms growing at the base. Dangerous trees lean significantly, have large dead branches over structures, or show root damage from construction. If you’re questioning a tree’s safety, have a certified arborist evaluate it. We can determine if removal is necessary or if pruning might solve the problem. Many homeowners wait too long and end up dealing with emergency situations that could have been prevented with earlier action.

What happens if the tree damages my property during removal?

Professional tree services carry comprehensive liability insurance specifically for this reason. Before any work begins, verify the company has current insurance and ask to see their certificate. We have detailed safety protocols to prevent property damage during removal. We use rigging systems, protective barriers, and controlled cutting techniques to ensure trees come down exactly where intended. If damage does occur despite proper precautions, our insurance covers repairs to your property.

How much does tree removal cost in Lakeview?

Tree removal costs depend on size, location, and complexity of the job. Small trees under 30 feet typically cost less than large mature trees that require specialized equipment. Trees close to houses, power lines, or in tight spaces cost more due to the additional safety measures required. We provide free estimates, so you can get accurate pricing for your specific situation. Emergency tree service usually costs more than scheduled removal, but it’s necessary when trees pose immediate safety risks.

Do I need permits for tree removal in Lakeview?

Lakeview has specific regulations about tree removal, especially for larger trees or those in certain neighborhoods. Many removals require permits from the town, and some areas have restrictions on removing healthy trees. We know these local requirements and can handle permit applications for you. We also understand which trees are protected and what alternatives might be required. Don’t risk fines or legal issues by attempting removal without proper permits.

How quickly can you remove a tree in an emergency?

Emergency tree service typically responds within hours, depending on the severity of the situation and weather conditions. Trees blocking roads or threatening structures get priority response. However, if trees are tangled in power lines, you’ll need to wait for utility companies to disconnect power before removal can begin safely. During major storms, response times may be longer due to high demand, but we address dangerous situations as quickly as possible while maintaining safety standards.

What's the difference between tree removal and tree trimming?

Tree removal means cutting down the entire tree, usually because it’s dead, diseased, or poses a safety hazard. Tree trimming involves removing specific branches to improve health, appearance, or safety while keeping the tree alive. Many situations that seem to require removal can actually be solved with proper pruning by a certified arborist. Professional evaluation helps determine the best approach for your specific tree and situation. Removal is permanent, so it’s worth exploring trimming options first when the tree isn’t completely compromised.
