Tree Removal

When a tree is dead, leaning toward something that matters, decayed through the trunk, or simply standing where you need the ground. Near a house or a line we take it down in sections and lower it on ropes rather than dropping it. Everything gets cleaned up, and you can keep the wood if you burn it.

Tree Trimming & Pruning

Deadwood out, structure improved, limbs off your roof and out of your driveway. This is the cheapest tree work there is and the easiest to put off. Most of the emergency calls we run in summer are limbs that had been dead for two years. We don’t top trees, and we’ll explain why if anyone has offered to.

Emergency Tree Service

24 hours a day, seven days a week. Trees on houses, trees across driveways, limbs hung up in the canopy after a storm. We answer at two in the morning the same as two in the afternoon, and after a big storm we work in order of danger rather than order of calls.

Stump Grinding & Removal

Once the tree is down the stump is still in your way. We grind them out below grade so you can mow, plant or build over the spot. If we’re already there taking the tree down, grinding the stump at the same time is the cheapest it will ever be, so ask for both when you get the quote.

Land Clearing

Building lots, fence lines, pasture that has gone to cedar and briar, and selective clearing to open a view. We’ll walk the property with you first, because what the land is for changes how it should be cleared. Taking everything off a lot is sometimes necessary and usually a mistake.

Not sure which one you need?

That’s normal, and it’s what the free estimate is for. Plenty of people call thinking a tree has to come down when trimming solves the problem for a lot less money. We’ll tell you straight either way, including when the answer is that the tree is fine and you should leave it alone.

Where we work

Thirteen towns across Campbell, Bedford and Pittsylvania counties, plus the city of Lynchburg: Lynch Station, Lynchburg, Forest, Bedford, Altavista, Rustburg, Gretna, Hurt, Moneta, Huddleston, Evington, Gladys and Goode.

If you’re near the edge of that and not sure, call and ask.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do you charge for estimates?

No. David comes out, looks at the job, and gives you a price. No charge and no obligation.

Are you licensed and insured?

Yes, both. It’s worth asking any tree company for proof of liability insurance and workers’ compensation before they start, and verifying it with the insurer rather than taking a certificate at face value.

Do you clean up?

Always, on every job. It’s the thing our customers mention more than anything else.

How far out are you booking?

Regular work is usually a few days. Storm damage is right away. Call and we’ll tell you honestly.

Do you work on commercial property?

Yes. Farms, businesses, rental property and HOA work as well as houses.
