Tree Removal in Baton Rouge & Surrounding Parishes
Need a tree gone? We remove dead, leaning, storm-damaged, and oversized trees from residential yards across Greater Baton Rouge. We section them down, chip what we can, haul the rest, and leave the site clean.
Louisiana LDAF Licensed Arborist, License No. AR 26-3070 · Licensed and Insured · COI on request · Chip and haul on quoted scopes.
What we do
- Full tree removal, from small yard trees to large hardwoods — scoped per job
- Hazardous and leaning trees near houses, fences, and driveways
- Dead tree removal
- Sectional takedown with ropes and controlled lowering when space is tight
- Chip and haul included in most scopes (confirmed on the estimate)
- Stump grinding as an add-on
We don’t guess from the curb when the job is complex. If we need a closer look at lean, decay, or access, we say so on the visit.
When to call
- The tree is dead, hollow, or dropping large limbs
- It leans toward the house, garage, or the neighbor’s property
- Storm damage — cracked trunk, hanging limbs, roots lifting
- It’s in the way of a fence, addition, driveway, or pool
- You’re selling and the buyer or inspector flagged it
Hazard right now — tree on a structure or blocking the road? Emergency & storm or call (225) 418-2720 first.
Big or hard-to-reach tree?
Some trees are too big, too tight to the house, or too far from access to rope down safely. For those, crane-assisted removals are arranged through trusted partners — we scope the job, coordinate the crane, and handle the cutting and cleanup. We’ll tell you on the visit if your tree needs one; crane availability and pricing are confirmed per job.
