Should You Remove That Tree?

While strong, healthy trees are an asset that can increase property values and the enjoyment of your outdoor spaces, there are times when it's necessary to cut down one or more trees to improve the overall safety, health and appearance of your property.

  • 1

    The Tree is Dead, Damaged or Diseased

    A dead tree is not only an eyesore, but it's also unstable and prone to falling. Diseased trees can quickly spread pathogens to other trees and plants in your yard if not treated promptly or, if necessary, removed entirely. Split, cracked and broken branches can fall unexpectedly, posing a safety hazard to your family and property.

  • 2

    Clean up Storm Damage

    Heavy winds, lightning strikes, and even winter weather can lead to damaged or fallen trees. If the tree is too close to your house, the right storm can badly damage the structure of your home. Remove large branches and fallen trees quickly so you can start repairs to your home or yard and get things back to normal.

  • 3

    IMPROVE HEALTH OF SURROUNDING TREES

    Tree crowding can stunt growth and promote the spread of rot and disease in otherwise healthy trees. By removing some of the trees in your yard, you’ll allow the remaining trees to flourish and thrive.

  • 4

    INCREASE SUN EXPOSURE

    A shady lawn is a great thing to have during the dog days of summer, but too much shade can stifle grass growth and trap moisture. If you’re ready to trade your muddy, patchy lawn for one that’s lush and green, removing one or more of the surrounding trees can help.

  • 5

    Improve Your Home

    Tree removal can do wonders for your home, inside and out. Brighten up your home during the day with increased sun exposure, which can also help keep your home warmer during winter months. Overhanging trees can clog your gutters and trap moisture on your roof and siding, leading to mold and mildew, and give small animals and other pests easy access to your attic space.

Tree Removal. What to Expect.

If you need tree removal services in the Cincinnati and Northern Kentucky area, give us a call and we’ll send one of our experts to you.

Many things go into tree removal and there are a lot of moving parts. We need to see the tree to determine, amongst other things, the tree’s:

  • Size
  • Species
  • Health
  • Location
  • Proximity to power lines and utilities, buildings, roads, etc.
  • Surrounding landscape

Once we can see the tree for ourselves, we can determine what kind of equipment is needed, which crew can most efficiently do the job, and more. Based on that, we'll give you a quote to cut down your tree(s).

How We Remove Trees

If there’s enough space, we can simply fell the tree and cut it into sections on the ground.

Usually, a tree has to be removed in segments, especially if it’s close to your house, power lines, or septic tanks. We may cut the tree into sections and lower the pieces safely to the ground using ropes and pulleys to minimize damage to your yard.

Tree Cutting & Removal

Frequently Asked Questions

Tree removal is one of those tasks that some homeowners think they can do themselves or with the help of a few friends. Please don't put yourself at risk! Tree removal is actually one of the most dangerous jobs there is.

To help you understand the tree removal and tree cutting process, take a look at our FAQs. We always encourage people to learn as much as they can before hiring a tree removal company.

Two important questions to ask are:

  • 1

    Is the company properly outfitted for the job?

    When you pay less for a tree removal job, you may find that you’ve hired someone who isn’t properly trained or doesn’t have the correct equipment. While you may think you are saving money, it will cost you more in the long run if the job is done incorrectly, if someone is injured, or if property is damaged. Reputable tree care companies train their employees thoroughly on proper techniques, safety procedures, and equipment knowledge.

  • 2

    Is the company properly insured for the job?

    People often assume that a landscaper is just as capable of cutting down a tree as a tree service company. Unfortunately, landscapers often don’t have the correct tools or know-how to safely remove a tree, especially a large tree. And most are only insured for jobs up to 15 feet above the ground – way below the height of most trees.

"Lefke Tree Experts did a great job removing a huge oak tree from our yard. We needed the tree removed to make room for a new house. Our yard is small and there are lots of other houses nearby. Everyone I had out to look at the tree told me it was going to be a problem to remove it but it wasn’t a problem for the team from Lefke! They got the tree removed safely and efficiently and at a very reasonable price compared to some of the other quotes I had received. All the employees are very friendly and professional. It’s a great company and I would definitely use them again in the future."
