"Leigh and his team did an awesome job taking down an 80 foot tree in my back yard. A bucket truck could not be used due my fence and clearances, however the spider lift fit through my gate and was awesome in completing the job. Leigh is very professional and easy to communicate with. His guys also cut up sections of both trees so that they could be split, seasoned and used as firewood. I would hire him again."

This is how the skyline looked after we removed several trees that were too close to the right side of the house.  There were more trees too close on the left side of the house, that can be removed in another project.
This is a good opportunity to see how we set up a  driveway job.  You can see our rear-mounted bucket truck, and plywood to protect the driveway as needed.  You can also see our chipper and chip truck, and our tool trailer is parked along the curb.
This is after getting set up to cut the largest tree.

Customers say: Quality work

"I've needed to get several stumps removed for a long time. It's hard to find people to show up and give you a quote. Oddly enough the guys at A+ tree service were driving by and saw that I needed work done. The quote they gave me was more than reasonable. They even performed the work same day. I would give them 100 stars if possible."

"Second Nature worked quickly and efficiently with me when I reached out to them about doing aeration for my lawn. The price was reasonable, and they seemed to do a quality job as far as I can tell. I only used them for the aeration since I normally do the fertilizer and seeding myself."

"I couldn't be happier with the work Budget Tree Service did! They were professional, punctual, and took great care while removing our trees. The crew worked efficiently, cleaned up everything before they left, and made sure we were completely satisfied with the job. Their pricing was fair and honest, and their customer service was excellent from start to finish. I would highly recommend Budget Tree Service to anyone needing tree removal or trimming. It's hard to find a company that works this hard and takes this much pride in what they do!"

"I recently hired Iron Brothers Construction in Nashville for tree work and stump removal, and I couldn’t be happier with the results. They did an excellent job from start to finish—everything was completed efficiently and within a very reasonable timeframe. The pricing was fair and competitive, especially considering the quality of the work. What really stood out to me was how personable and professional the owner was. He made the whole process easy, communicated clearly, and made sure everything was done right. If you’re looking for reliable, high-quality tree services, I highly recommend them. I’ll definitely be using them again in the future!"

Arborists questions, answered by experts

Whether you grind or dig up and remove your tree stump depends on your landscaping goals. Using a stump grinder leaves the root system in place for it to decompose over time, whereas digging up the tree stump removes the roots and the stump. Overall, stump grinding is a far simpler process since you won’t need to deal with the roots. Stump removal will make your yard look like a demolition site, but you’ll have an easier time replanting in the same place as your former tree.

It is possible to cut down a tree on your property yourself, but it is generally not recommended unless specific conditions are met. You should only consider this project if the tree is small (e.g., under 4-5 inches in diameter and short enough that you don't need a ladder to reach the branches), and you are experienced in handling a chainsaw. The tree must also be located far from any power lines, fences, homes, or other structures. Even for small trees, the work can be dangerous, and it's always advisable to have a spotter to ensure the tree falls correctly and no branches fall on you.

For any tree that is large, requires a ladder to access, or is near electrical lines or structures, you should always hire a professional. Attempting to remove a large tree yourself is extremely dangerous, poses a risk of serious injury, and could result in significant damage to your property.

Before any tree removal, it's also important to check your local and state regulations to ensure the tree is not historic or otherwise protected by your city.

A standard tree removal doesn’t include stump grinding. If you want your contractor to remove your tree and grind the stump, you must pay an extra charge. That said, you’ll likely save on the cost of stand-alone service—especially if it’s a small tree and they can finish both jobs in a single trip.

Some people prefer to leave or even carve a leftover stump, but we recommend removing it if possible. You can often dig out smaller trunks with a shovel once they have died and dried out. You can have stumps professionally removed, or request a service to grind them down to ground level so they can be replaced with other landscaping or objects.

Horticulturist is a broad term for any type of plant and soil expert. An arborist, meanwhile, specializes in all aspects of tree care. You should hire an arborist when you need assistance with tree-related tasks, such as pruning large trees, removing trees, diagnosing a sick tree, or emergency tree services. Horticulturists aren’t qualified to handle those types of tasks.
