Full-service tree care from local certified arborists — hazardous tree removal, expert pruning, stump grinding and storm cleanup. Free on-site estimates, clean job sites, and crews that show up when we say we will.
Full-service tree care
One local crew for everything from a single overhanging limb to a 90-foot oak over your roofline. Residential, commercial and HOA properties across Forsyth County.

Dead, leaning or storm-damaged trees taken down piece by piece — including tight backyard and crane-assisted removals near roofs, fences and power lines.

ANSI A300 pruning that improves structure, clears roofs and driveways, and keeps your canopy healthy instead of butchered.

Stumps ground 6–10 inches below grade so you can replant, re-sod or build — with mulch raked out or hauled off.

Trees on houses, blocked driveways, split trunks — our on-call crew works nights, weekends and holidays and documents everything for your insurance claim.

A certified arborist evaluates decay, pests, storm risk and root damage, then gives you a straight answer on whether the tree can be saved.

Emergency crews across Winston-Salem, Clemmons and Kernersville — typically on site within the hour.

Why neighbors call us back
We are based on Queen St in Winston-Salem — not a call center routing your job to whoever bids lowest. The same people who quote your tree are the ones who take it down.
Every job is led by an experienced climber who knows Piedmont species — willow oaks, tulip poplars, pines and sweetgums — and how they fail.
General liability and full workers’ comp. We send certificates before we ever start cutting, so damage is never your problem.
Plywood and mats over driveways, rigging instead of dropping, and rakes and blowers before we leave. Most clients cannot tell we were in the yard.
If pruning will save your tree, we will tell you that instead of selling a removal. If it is a hazard, we will show you exactly why.
How it works
Tell us what you are looking at — a leaning pine, limbs on the roof, a stump in the way. Most calls are answered by a crew member in under a minute.
We come out, assess access and risk, and hand you a flat written price with no hourly surprises. Emergencies get quoted on the spot.
Yard protected, ropes rigged, traffic controlled if needed. Routine work is usually scheduled within a few days; emergencies same day.
Wood hauled or stacked, chips removed, lawn blown clean. You walk the property with us before we pull out of the driveway.
Reviews
Based on 380+ verified reviews across Google and Facebook
"A 70-foot willow oak was hanging over our bedroom. They rigged every piece down instead of dropping it, and there was not a single divot in the lawn. Price matched the written quote exactly."
"Called at 11 p.m. after a storm put a pine across our driveway. A crew was here before 1 a.m., cut us out, and came back the next morning to finish. They photographed everything for our insurance."
"The arborist talked me out of removing a maple I thought was dying and pruned it instead. Two seasons later it looks better than ever. Honest people are hard to find in this trade."
"Ground three big stumps below grade, hauled the mulch away and reseeded the spots. In and out in one afternoon and cheaper than the other two bids I got."

Questions homeowners ask
Most residential tree removals in Winston-Salem run between $450 and $2,400. Price depends on height, trunk diameter, how close the tree is to a house or power lines, and whether we can get equipment into the yard. Small ornamentals near the street are at the low end; large oaks or pines requiring rigging or a crane are at the high end. Every estimate is free, on site, and written as a flat price — never hourly.
Yes. We keep an on-call crew for storm damage and answer the phone at (336) 502-5729 around the clock, including weekends and holidays. For trees on structures or blocked driveways we typically arrive within about an hour anywhere in Forsyth County, tarp any roof openings, and document the damage with photos for your insurance claim.
We are fully licensed in North Carolina and carry both general liability coverage and workers’ compensation for every crew member. We will email certificates of insurance before work begins, and we encourage you to ask any tree company for the same — an uninsured crew injuring itself on your property becomes your liability.
Yes, complete cleanup is included in every quote unless you ask us to leave the wood. We chip the brush, haul the logs, rake the work area and blow off driveways, walks and roofs. Many customers ask us to leave rounds for firewood or drop a load of fresh mulch, and we are happy to do either at no extra charge.
Homeowners policies usually cover removal when a fallen tree damages a covered structure such as a roof, garage or fence, and often cover debris removal up to a set limit. A healthy tree that simply falls in the yard is typically not covered. We provide itemized invoices and time-stamped photos that adjusters accept, and we can speak directly with your adjuster if that helps.
Late winter through early spring — roughly December through March — is ideal for most Piedmont hardwoods because the trees are dormant, structure is visible without leaves, and wounds close quickly before the growing season. Dead, broken or hazardous limbs should be removed any time of year, and we prune storm-damaged trees on demand.
Estimates in Winston-Salem are usually scheduled within 24 to 48 hours, and routine removals or trimming typically start within three to seven days depending on the season. Emergency work is same day. After major storms our schedule fills fast, so calling early gets you in line sooner.
Almost always. Tight-access removals are a large share of our work in older Winston-Salem neighborhoods like Ardmore and West End. We climb and rig the tree down in controlled pieces, use ground protection mats over lawns, and can bring in a crane when a yard has no equipment access at all.
