Tree Removal

Professional Tree Removal in the Chippewa Valley

Removing a tree is serious work, and in Eau Claire and across the Chippewa Valley it often happens in tight quarters. A dead ash beside a driveway, a maple leaning over a roof, a pine crowding a garage, or a storm-damaged tree under tension each calls for planning, the right equipment, and trained judgment.

Every removal starts with a close look at the tree and everything around it. We read the lean, check the structure, and note any decay or deadwood in the canopy. Then we map what the tree could hit on the way down: buildings, fences, overhead lines, and underground utilities. Site access matters too, since it determines which method and equipment fit the job.

Some trees can be felled whole in one controlled direction. Others come down piece by piece, with limbs and trunk sections lowered on ropes and rigging.

Want the stump gone as well? Ask about adding stump grinding while our crew is already on site.

How a removal day works

We start every job with a free estimate, so you know exactly what the work involves before anything is scheduled. On removal day, we set a clear work zone, shield the surrounding area wherever we can, and take the tree down using the safest method for the site.

When a tree stands close to a structure, we dismantle it in controlled sections. When it has room to fall, we may fell it whole instead.

Signs it may be time to remove a tree

Not every struggling tree needs to come down. Certain warning signs do deserve a closer look, though, especially when the tree could reach a home, driveway, or play area.

• Large dead or hanging branches
• A cracked, hollow, or splitting trunk
• Fungus or mushrooms growing at the base
• A new lean after wind, rain, or snow
• Root damage, heaving soil, or exposed roots
• Widespread ash decline from emerald ash borer

Common questions

Do you offer free tree removal estimates?
Yes. We inspect the tree, walk you through the plan, and give you clear pricing before any work is scheduled.

Can you remove trees close to a house?
Yes. We take down trees near structures in controlled sections, using ropes and rigging when the space demands it.
