What this service covers
Big trees need a real plan.
Got a tree that's too big, too close, or too much trouble? That's exactly what we do. Large removals, tight backyards, trees over the garage or the power lines — we've seen it, and we have the equipment and the crew to handle it.
You'll get a fair price before we start, careful work around your home and yard, and a full cleanup when we're done. When we roll out of the driveway, we want you to be glad you called — that's how we keep the phone ringing.

Big tree cracked in the storm?
When a large tree splits or starts to lean after a storm, the weight involved makes it dangerous to wait. Stay clear of it and call us — we'll talk through what you're seeing and how fast we can get there.

What makes a tree a big job.
Height is only part of it. These are the things that shape the plan and the price.
Species and wood weight
White oak and red oak are dense and heavy. Tulip poplar grows tall and straight fast. Loblolly and Virginia pine carry weight high in the crown. Each one rigs differently.
What's underneath
Roofs, decks, septic lines, fences and gardens decide where pieces can and can't land. The more there is to protect, the more wood gets lowered instead of dropped.
Access to the tree
Knoxville lots climb and drop. A steep driveway or a backyard with no gate changes what equipment can reach the tree and how wood gets hauled out.
Clay soil and roots
East Tennessee clay holds water and roots stay shallow. Wet ground can limit where heavy equipment should roll, so we plan the route before the truck backs in.
Lean and trunk shape
Co-dominant trunks, heavy lean and old storm wounds all change how the tree will move when cut. We read the tree before we set a single line.
What you want left
Firewood rounds, a clean lawn, or everything hauled off — the finish you want is part of the plan from the first conversation.
