Customers say: Super punctual

"Hired them for a major yard transformation. They removed 3 major oak trees, several large cedars, and countless brush, bushes, & ivy. This crew works extremely hard, efficient, and very well skilled. The crane operator and bobcat drivers are very talented with their maneuvers and make quick work of seemingly dicey tasks. All of the crew very nice and left us a clean yard. Great value. Wouldn't go to anyone else for a similar job"

"Engineer Walter Cardona & his team removing big trees is fascinating to watch. He knows exactly where each piece will arrive on the ground. The Cardona team brought 2 large pines down between houses without a worry. In addition 3 birch with branches overhanging a busy street were cleaned up, plus 3 large stumps were ground all in less than 90 minutes; the yard was raked clean! Cardona's Tree Service was far & away the best service & price from multiple quotes. Whatever your requirements, Cardona has the experienced team, the appropriate equipment needed, safety protocol, and fair pricing. "Way to go, guys! Thank you!""

"I have no words to express my admiration for the professionalism of these people. We hired them for the second time, and they did a perfect job. They had to remove 7 70ft trees, some of which were dead and dried up, some leaning towards the house, and others diseased and infested with insects. The guys came with the necessary equipment and completed the work without any issues or damage to the property. They even cleaned up the yard afterwards. We were extremely satisfied and will hire them again when needed! Don't hesitate. This is one of the best and most professional tree removal companies in the state."

"Mr. Beaver Tree Service did an amazing job!! It took only 1 hour to cut down 2 trees from my front yard. Their cleanup was impeccable as if there were no trees in my front yard. The price for the project was extremely reasonable and their customer service was above and beyond (Teresa and Oscar are amazing. I am happy to have found a company that I will use for many projects. I am about to use on a second project. couldn’t be happier with the service and highly recommend them to anyone needing tree work. Great job all around. Rosemarie Singh"

"I have had lots of tree work done on my property over the years and this company was the BEST. They cut down some very large trees near the pasture, as well as some shrubs in my yard. They were so efficient!! The price fair and slightly below other estimates and the quality of their work was unbelievable. The crew was in and out of here in record time. They worked so well together and used every safety precaution. Clean up was amazing. This company left my property in immaculate condition and with NO damage to my grazing pasture. Love them! Also, the estimator (Jay) was terrific to work with. He explained everything in detail and provided two plans because I need more work done in the future. Great experience. Thank you all!!"

"This company delivered on what the job called for. Very professional. I had three large trees that came down in the storm week of August 4th. They cut them up and removed. Trimmed all the damaged trees. Hauled away all excess wood. Was able to mulch limbs back into our woods. They were able to spread the wood chips back into our natural areas. Went above and beyond what they said they would do. Arrived on time and finished in the time they had indicated. Pricing was far better than other quotes that I received. All my tree needs will be handled by M & T.."

Arborists questions, answered by experts

In Cary, tree trimming or pruning typically takes a few hours per tree, while complete tree removal may require most of a day, depending on size and location. Larger or multiple tree projects can extend over several days. Permit approvals, HOA permissions, and coordination with utility companies can add extra time, especially during storm season or periods of high demand.

Helpful?

When hiring a tree service pro in Cary, prioritize those with proper insurance, certifications, and experience with local tree species. Ensure they are familiar with Cary’s tree ordinances and HOA requirements. Ask for detailed written estimates, confirm that cleanup is included, and request references from other Cary homeowners. The right equipment and a clear understanding of residential access are also essential for safe and efficient tree removal or trimming.

Helpful?

Your Cary home likely needs tree service if you notice branches touching your roof, trees leaning after storms, or signs of disease like fungus or dead limbs. Overgrown landscaping, pest infestations, or trees interfering with driveways and sidewalks are also key indicators. If you live in a neighborhood with HOA landscaping rules, regular tree trimming and assessment are especially important for maintaining compliance and curb appeal.

Helpful?

In Cary, you’ll find full-service tree companies handling tree removal, trimming, and disease management, as well as certified arborists focused on tree health and preservation. Some contractors specialize in emergency storm cleanup, stump grinding, or precision pruning. Utility-focused crews manage power line clearance, while landscape-focused teams integrate tree care with broader property maintenance, which is especially valuable in neighborhoods with mature landscaping.

Helpful?

Be cautious of tree service contractors in Cary who offer unusually low quotes, request full payment upfront, or lack proof of insurance. Avoid those who don’t discuss necessary permits, ignore local yard waste disposal requirements, or can’t provide references from Cary residents. A reputable tree removal or trimming professional should also have a clear plan for debris cleanup and understand protected tree species regulations.
