7 company-owned cranes
Crane-Assisted Tree Removal
When a tree is too large or too close to your home to bring down in one piece, we use one of our own cranes. The crane lifts each section up and over your house, fence and garden, then sets it down safely where we can cut and haul it away.
-
Safer around homes
Nothing swings or drops near your roof.
-
Less damage to your yard
No heavy limbs crashing onto lawns or flower beds.
-
Faster
Less cutting on the ground means big jobs finish sooner.
-
Reaches backyard trees
We can lift over the house when there's no access from the street.

Tree Removal Questions
Can't find your answer? Call us on 919-610-1647.
How much does tree removal cost?
Every tree is different. Size, location and access all affect the price. We give you a free, clear estimate before any work starts.
Do you handle emergency tree removal?
Yes. If a tree has come down on your house, car or driveway, call us on 919-610-1647 and we'll get a crew out to you as fast as possible.
Do you remove the stump?
Stump grinding is available as an add-on, so you can replant or mow straight over the spot.
Do you clean up afterwards?
Yes. We haul away all wood and debris and leave your yard clean.
Are you insured?
Yes, we're fully insured on every job.
Do I need to be home?
Not always. As long as we have access to the tree, we can do the work while you're out.
How quickly can you come out?
Most estimates are done within hours of your request, and we'll schedule the work at a time that suits you.
