Tree removal in Raleigh

Trees of Carolina handles tree removal in Raleigh. We can bring in the crane for larger, difficult removals, and we prune the trees you want to keep.

Tell us what’s under the tree, as well as what’s overhead

A tree beside a Raleigh home can have a deck, roof, fence or flower bed under its branches, and all of that shapes how we plan the removal. Send us photos of the whole tree and the ground around it, including anything you want us to work around.

When the site calls for it, we use our own 17-ton Terex boom truck for crane-assisted tree removal. Where the truck can set up, how far it has to reach and the tree’s condition all decide the method. If the crane isn’t a good fit, we’ll talk you through the other ways we can bring the tree down in sections.

Know what your estimate covers

A price only means something when you know what’s in it. Our guide to tree removal costs in Raleigh explains how access, the tree’s condition, cleanup and the stump change the job. Ask us whether the wood is being hauled away, where the chips will go and whether stump grinding is included.

You don’t have to want a tree gone to call us. If a branch over the roof or a change in the canopy is worrying you, pruning and tree care may be the place to start. Owner Derek McConnachie is an ISA Certified Arborist and can look at the tree before recommending any work.

Questions about Raleigh tree work

Removals near the house, roof branches and storm damage

Can you remove a tree close to my house?

Yes, we take on removals close to buildings. The tree’s condition, access and the room we have to handle sections decide the plan, so show us the whole setting when you get in touch.

Does a branch over the roof mean the tree must go?

Not necessarily. Pruning may solve a clearance problem, while a damaged or declining tree may need different work. Have us look at it before you decide.

Can you help with storm-damaged trees?

Yes, we do storm cleanup. Stay clear of damaged trees and downed utility lines, then call us to tell us what happened and ask when we can come out.
