Tree Removal
Our certified arborists safely remove hazardous or dead trees using advanced equipment and techniques. We assess structural risks, employ cranes or aerial lifts for precision, and ensure debris cleanup to protect your property. Emergency removals are available 24/7 for storm-damaged trees threatening structures or power lines.
Plant Health Care
Customized programs include soil testing, fertilization, and pest management to maintain tree vitality. Our ISA-certified specialists diagnose issues like emerald ash borer infestations and create seasonal treatment plans. Organic solutions and preventive care ensure long-term landscape resilience.
Emergency Storm Damage
Available 24/7, our team rapidly responds to fallen trees and debris. We prioritize safety by stabilizing hazards, removing debris, and assessing remaining tree risks. Same-day service minimizes property damage and restores access for homeowners and businesses.
Stump Grinding
Using specialized machinery, we grind stumps below ground level to eliminate tripping hazards and improve aesthetics. The process includes debris removal and backfilling with wood chips, with optional soil replacement for landscaping needs.

Critical:Professionalism
Dropped several large branches on our house today while doing service for our neighbors, complete unprofessionals. Only did they start dropping branches away from our house and properly using ropes after I had to yell at them for being lazy!

I had 5 trees cut down and many stumps ground. Fantastic experience. Very reasonable price. Kind employees and Jeff is very responsive in communication. Dont look anywhere else if you need tree work.

Thanks for operating during the pandemic. Birtch growing little too tall was starting to tug at the gutters. No contact estimate, Jeff drove by and emailed me the quote. 20% less than another company. And another company didnt even show up to give an estimate. Will use again. Crew came out, asked me specifics and got to work. 30 min later it was all set. Asked me out to verify the work. No issues.

Excellent service, above and beyond!!!! I called Stein Tree to come out and check my beech tree. It's big and old and I love it, except it was scratching my windows and looming over the roof quite badly in a few spots. They came out and gave me an estimate the very next day with no contact. It was a month before they could get out, but I wasn't in a huge hurry and it wasn't an emergency! They also told me from the beginning it would be about three weeks, so four wasn't a hardship. The guys who came were AMAZING. I asked them if they would confirm a branch would hold the swing I had literally

Just had 3 dying trees removed before they became a problem. Jeff showed up when he said he would and was prompt with his quote. The same with the team. They showed up Monday as promised and worked safely and efficiently. They cleaned the area and patched any divots the falling limbs left in my lawn. Im very pleased with their work and professionalism. Definitely recommended!
