Safe tree removal for Tallahassee homes
Removing a tree is one of the most dangerous jobs a homeowner can face. A mature oak or pine in Tallahassee can weigh many tons, and most of the trees people need removed sit right next to a house, a fence, a pool or overhead power lines. Our crews take trees down in controlled sections, lowering heavy wood with ropes and rigging so nothing lands where it shouldn't.
We remove single problem trees, multiple trees for a new addition or pool, and dead trees that have become a hazard. Every removal includes cleanup, and stump grinding can be added so the area is ready for grass, a garden or construction.
Trees we remove most often in Tallahassee
Laurel and water oaks are common in older neighborhoods and often decline from the inside out, leaving hollow trunks and heavy dead limbs. Pines can die quickly after drought, lightning or pine beetle attacks and become brittle within months. Large live oaks sometimes need removal when roots damage foundations or the tree has split. We'll give you an honest recommendation: if a tree can be saved with pruning, we'll tell you.
Removals near homes and power lines
Tight spaces don't scare us. For trees over roofs or between houses, our climbers remove limbs piece by piece and lower them to the ground. For trees touching power lines, the utility must make the area safe first; we can help you coordinate so the job moves quickly.
What affects the price of tree removal
Every tree is different, so we price each job after seeing it. The biggest factors are the tree's height and trunk size, how close it is to buildings and lines, whether we can bring equipment into the yard, the tree's condition, and whether you want the stump ground and wood hauled away. Your estimate is free and in writing before any work begins.

Tree Removal FAQs
How much does tree removal cost in Tallahassee?
Cost depends on the tree's size, location, condition and access, plus whether you want the stump ground. We give free on-site estimates with a written price before any work starts.
Can you remove a tree that's close to my house?
Yes. Most of our removals are near homes, fences or pools. We take the tree down in small sections and lower the pieces with ropes so nothing hits your property.
Do I need a permit to remove a tree?
Some trees in Tallahassee and Leon County require approval to remove, depending on size, species and location. Florida law allows removal of a tree documented as dangerous by a certified arborist or licensed landscape architect without a local permit. We'll explain what applies during your estimate.
Is stump removal included?
Stump grinding is offered as an add-on to any removal. Many customers choose it so they can mow or replant right away.
Will you haul away the wood?
Yes. Limbs are chipped or hauled off and the yard is raked clean. If you'd like to keep some wood for firewood, just let us know.
