Tree Removal Done Right
When Trees Need to Go, We Handle It Safely
When a tree becomes a safety hazard, threatens your property, or simply needs to go, you need professionals who understand that this isn't just about cutting wood. At New Leaf Tree, we recognize that removing a tree from your property is often an emotional decision. Whether it's a beloved old oak that's become dangerous or storm damage that's left you feeling overwhelmed, we're here to guide you through the process with expertise, care, and complete transparency.

Why Choose

When Is Tree Removal Necessary?
Sometimes the signs are obvious. A tree that's fallen across your driveway after a storm clearly needs immediate attention. So does one that's leaning precariously toward your house. But other situations require the trained eye of a certified arborist to assess properly.
Clear Warning Signs Include:
- Trees with visible decay, cracks, or hollow sections in the trunk
- Dead branches throughout the canopy or lack of new growth
- Root damage from construction or soil changes
- Severe pest infestations like emerald ash borer
- Significant lean that developed suddenly
- Trees too close to power lines or structures
Hidden Dangers Often Go Unnoticed
Dead or dying trees pose significant risks even when they appear stable. Disease, pest infestations, or internal decay can compromise a tree's structural integrity long before visible symptoms appear.
We often encounter homeowners who've been living with a ticking time bomb in their yard without realizing it. Our arborists can identify these hidden dangers and recommend the best course of action before emergency strikes.
Storm Damage Doesn't Always Mean Removal
Trees are remarkably resilient. What might look catastrophic to an untrained eye could be manageable with proper tree pruning and care.
That's why we always provide honest assessments. If we can save your tree, we'll tell you. If removal is the safest option, we'll explain exactly why and what the process involves.

Our Complete Tree Removal Process
STEP ONE
Detailed Property Assessment
Every tree removal project begins with a thorough evaluation of your unique situation. We examine the tree's condition, size, location, and proximity to structures, power lines, and landscaping.
This isn't a quick glance from the driveway. It's a detailed analysis that considers factors most people never think about, like soil conditions, root systems, and potential fall patterns.
STEP two
Custom Removal Planning
Before any cutting begins, we develop a detailed removal plan tailored to your specific property.
This planning phase determines:
- The safest removal approach for your specific situation
- Whether to climb and section the tree piece by piece
- When to use our crane for controlled removal
- How to employ specialized rigging techniques in tight spaces
- Protection strategies for your existing landscaping and structures
STEP three
Safe Execution
Safety is our top priority, which is why we never rush.
Our process includes:
- Establishing clear work zones around the removal area
- Using proper personal protective equipment for every crew member
- Following strict safety protocols throughout the project
- Communicating with utility companies when necessary
- Ensuring all local regulations and permit requirements are met
We take the time to do things right because shortcuts in tree removal can have serious consequences.
Professional tree removal requires more than basic tools. Our comprehensive equipment fleet ensures we can handle any challenge your property presents.
Our Specialized Tree Service Equipment Includes:
- Bucket trucks for safe access to tall trees
- Cranes for controlled removal of large specimens
- Specialized rigging systems for tight spaces
- Professional climbing gear meeting industry standards
- Commercial-grade chainsaws and cutting tools
- Complete safety equipment for every crew member
Why Professional Equipment Matters
This advanced equipment allows us to remove trees that other companies might struggle with while minimizing risk to your property. Every piece of equipment is regularly maintained and inspected because equipment failure during tree removal can have catastrophic consequences.
When you see our crew arrive with professional-grade tools, you know you're working with serious professionals who take your safety and property protection seriously.
Stump Removal Add-On and Site Cleanup
Tree removal doesn't end when the tree hits the ground. We handle every aspect of the cleanup process, from sectioning and removing the trunk to chipping branches and hauling away debris. We leave your property cleaner than we found it because we know that's what you expect from true professionals.
Stump removal is typically a separate service, and we'll discuss your options during our initial assessment.
Some homeowners prefer to keep stumps for garden features or cost savings, while others want complete removal for aesthetic or practical reasons.
We can grind stumps below ground level or remove them entirely, depending on your preferences and future plans for the area.

Frequently Asked Questions About Tree Removal
How much does tree removal typically cost?
Tree removal costs vary significantly based on factors like tree size, location, condition, and removal complexity. Trees near power lines, buildings, or in difficult-to-access areas require specialized equipment and techniques, which increases costs. We provide free, detailed estimates after evaluating your specific situation because every tree removal is unique.
Will my homeowners insurance cover tree removal?
Insurance coverage depends on the circumstances. If a tree falls and damages a covered structure like your home, garage, or fence, removal is typically covered up to policy limits. However, insurance usually doesn't cover preventive removal of healthy trees or cleanup of trees that fall without causing structural damage. Trees blocking driveways or handicap access ramps may also qualify for coverage. We work with insurance companies regularly and can help document claims properly.
How do I know if a tree actually needs to be removed?
Several signs indicate removal may be necessary, including visible decay or cracks in the trunk, dead branches throughout the canopy, sudden leaning, severe pest infestations, or root damage from construction. However, many dangerous conditions aren't visible to untrained eyes. Our certified arborists can assess internal decay, structural integrity, and disease that might not be obvious. We always provide honest evaluations and will recommend alternatives like pruning or treatment if the tree can be safely preserved.
How long does tree removal take, and what's included in the service?
Timeline depends on tree size and complexity, but most residential removals take 2-6 hours. Simple removals might be completed in under an hour, while large trees near structures can take a full day. Our service includes safe tree removal, cutting the trunk into manageable sections, chipping smaller branches, and complete debris cleanup. Stump grinding is typically a separate service. We protect your landscaping throughout the process and leave your property cleaner than we found it.
