New lean
A trunk that wasn't leaning last year. If it tilted recently, it may be ready to fall.
From single backyard removals to estate-scale work, Trees & Co. handles the trees other crews won't touch. Crane-assisted removals, sectional climbing, low-impact rigging, and the kind of cleanup you expect from a firefighter-run operation.
We start every estimate by asking whether the tree actually needs to be removed. Sometimes the answer is no — a hard prune or a cabling job will buy the tree another decade. Sometimes the answer is "yesterday." Knowing the difference is what 25 years of climbing trees gets you.
If you're looking at any of the signs below, call us for a free estimate. We'll tell you straight — remove, save, or wait. No upsell.
A trunk that wasn't leaning last year. If it tilted recently, it may be ready to fall.
Soil mounding around the base. The root plate is letting go — failure can come fast.
Splits running down the trunk. A failure plane forming under load — don't wait for a storm.
Broken limbs, hangers, or structural failure after high winds, ice, or lightning.
Fungus, cavities, or rotted bark at the trunk's base — often the tip of internal rot.
Dead branches in the upper canopy that drop unpredictably under wind load.
D-shaped holes and a dying canopy on ash trees. Whole stand often goes together.
New build, addition, or driveway expansion that needs trees gone first.
A 30-foot ornamental in a tight side yard and a 90-foot oak over your roof take different gear, but they run the same playbook.
Hector or his foreman walks the site, identifies the tree, the drop zone, the hazards within reach, and where the bucket truck or crane needs to set up. Insurance markers go on anything we'll work around.
The crew gets the cut order, the rigging plan, the escape route, and the radio assignments. No one swings a chainsaw until everyone knows the plan.
Sectional cuts when we're tight to structures. Whole-fell when we have the room. Crane-assisted when the lay is wrong. Speed comes from preparation, not shortcuts.
Chip the brush. Haul the rounds. Rake the lawn. Sweep the driveway. We don't pack up until the property looks like we were never there — except the tree's gone.
"Hector and his crew took down four massive oaks behind our house — over the power lines, around the pool, no damage. They were faster, cleaner, and friendlier than every other estimate we got." — Verified Google Review
Removals get dangerous fast when crews are under-equipped. We run a full pro fleet so we can bring the right tool to the right tree — no compromises, no improvising mid-job.
Tree removal pricing depends on three things: size, location, and complexity. A 40-foot ash in an open back yard costs a fraction of a 90-foot oak over a swimming pool. We'll come out, look at the tree, and give you a written estimate the same week — usually within 24 hours.
What you won't see from us: low-ball quotes that climb during the job, vague "starting at" prices, or surprise fees for cleanup or hauling. The quote you sign is the price you pay.
Most jobs scoped same-week. Storm and emergency work runs first-in, first-out, regardless of who called.
Other work the same crew does on most removal jobs.
Tell us about it. We'll come out within a few days, give you a written estimate, and let you decide.
