Dead pine over the roof? Leaning oak after a wet spring? Our crew removes trees of every size across Concord — including the tight backyard jobs other companies pass on.
When a Tree Has to Go
Pines that browned out after beetle activity and oaks that failed to leaf out are structural failures waiting on a windstorm. Dead trees only get more dangerous — and more expensive to remove — with time.
Concord's red clay holds water in a wet spring and lets go in a storm. If the soil on one side of the trunk is mounding or cracking, the root plate is moving. That's an urgent call.
Every 1990s-built neighborhood in Cabarrus County is losing its Bradford pears. Once the trunk union splits, removal is almost always safer than cabling what's left.
Limbs on the roof, roots in the foundation drainage, gutters full of sweetgum balls every fall — sometimes the right answer is removal and replanting a better tree farther out.
Pricing
Every tree is quoted in person for free, but these ranges hold for most Concord jobs:
Ornamentals, dogwoods, small pears under ~30 ft.
$400–$700
Most maples, sweetgums, and pines 30–60 ft with decent access.
$700–$1,400
Big willow oaks and tall loblolly pines, or anything rigged down over a roof, pool, or fence.
$1,400–$2,500+
Price drivers: height and trunk diameter, how far wood must be carried, what's underneath the drop zone, and whether you want the stump ground the same day (bundling saves you a second trip charge).
How It Works
1. Free quote. We walk the tree with you, check lean, decay, and drop zones, and give a firm number — not a range that grows later.
2. Controlled takedown. Open yards get a straightforward fell. Tight Concord lots get a climber and rigging: the tree comes down in sections, each piece lowered on ropes. Your fence, roof, and flowerbeds are protected with mats and plywood where needed.
3. Full cleanup. Limbs are chipped, trunk wood hauled off (or bucked into firewood lengths if you want to keep it), and the lawn raked and blown. Add stump grinding and the whole tree is gone below grade.
Usually no equipment touches your grass at all — climbing and rigging does the work. When a machine genuinely helps (big trunk wood, long carries), we lay ground protection mats first.
Yes, but both owners should agree in writing before work starts on a boundary tree. We're happy to quote it with both of you at the walk-through.
We document storm-damaged removals with photos and itemized invoices that adjusters accept. See our emergency storm damage page for how claims usually work.
