Tree Service in New Lenox, IL: Removal, Trimming, and Stumps

Everything your trees need, from one careful local crew. Removals, pruning, stump grinding, storm work, and planting, all at competitive prices.

What good tree service looks like

Anyone can buy a chainsaw. Good tree service is about judgment and technique.

Honest advice

We tell you when a tree can be saved with trimming and when it really needs to come down.

Proper cuts

We cut at the branch collar, use a three cut method on heavy limbs, and never top trees.

Right timing

We prune most trees in the dormant season and schedule oak work to avoid oak wilt.

Controlled removals

We climb and rig trees near homes so every piece is lowered safely. See tree removal.

A clean finish

Brush and wood are cleaned up, and stumps can be ground below grade.

Signs your tree needs attention

  • Dead branches in the top of the tree
  • Cracks or splits in the trunk
  • Mushrooms or fungus at the base
  • Bark peeling off in large pieces
  • A new lean or heaving soil on one side
  • Limbs rubbing the roof or siding
  • Thinning leaves at the top, a common sign on ash trees
  • Broken limbs hanging after a storm

Trees we see most in New Lenox

Most yards around here have some mix of maples, oaks, spruce, pears, and ash. Each one has its own common problems.

Maples

Silver maples drop big limbs and have surface roots. Sugar and red maples are sturdier but still need pruning over time.

Oaks

Worth protecting. Prune only in the dormant season because of oak wilt.

Ash

Many are dead or dying from the emerald ash borer.

Callery pears

Split easily in storms as they age.

Spruce and pine

Older spruce often lose lower branches to disease.
