Tree Removal
CLC Tree Services offers fast, safe, and professional tree removal for residential and commercial properties. Our certified arborists assess each tree's condition to determine if removal is necessary due to disease, hazards, or construction needs. Using advanced equipment and techniques, we ensure minimal disruption to your property while prioritizing safety. Our team handles trees of all sizes, providing complete cleanup afterward to leave your site hazard-free and well-maintained.
Pruning & Maintenance
Our expert pruning and maintenance services enhance tree health, structure, and aesthetics. Certified arborists remove dead or weak branches to improve stability, encourage growth, and reduce storm damage risks. We focus on precision to maintain natural beauty while addressing hazards like wire interference or diseased limbs. Regular maintenance ensures long-term tree vitality, promoting sunlight penetration and air circulation for healthier landscapes.

I can't say enough good things about this company... First and foremost, they are honest and fair. They take you and your concerns seriously, respond on time and help you resolve any issues you might have with the services they provide. They have excellent staff who are knowledgeable and professional at what they do. I can't say this for any other company but you can have 100% peace of mind when doing business with CLC. Thank you CLC for the perfect trimming of my tree and helping me with my after-service issue, resolving it immediately and fairly, while being polite and kind. You made my day!

They removed 4 tall partially dead trees and trimmed another in a tight urban situation. The friendly, professional, crew, were very efficient, with tools to suit the conditions, no surprises and a good clean-up. I'd seen them work at a neighbour's property and was impressed so gave them a call, was quoted a fair price for the work involved. I'd have no qualms recommending CLC Tree Services to friends and family.

CLC personnel were very professional and tidy. They showed up on time and were polite and responsive when asked to "trim a little extra". Price was acceptable and they agreed to stack the wood that they cut up for me! I'd recommend this company for any of your tree maintenance requirements.

Thank you so much for stepping up and saving that kitten so high up in that tree, and avoiding a near tragic event. I find how people treat animals and children says a lot about themselves. You have my business!

CLC Tree Services is amazing! Not only are they super skilled at their trade, they also care about their community- including animals! Today they saved a cat stuck in a tree with such efficiency and care, and out of the pure goodness of their hearts! A special shout out to Ryan for being the one to bring the scared kitty down, and trying to make it as comfortable as possible in the process. I’m so grateful💗

Excellent work by the crew from CLC Tree Services. They arrived on time with a well staffed crew and methodically set up all their gear, including a crane to remove a tree. They assessed the task at hand, formulated a plan for the removal of the tree and several large limbs on two other trees and then set to work as a team in an efficient and safe manner. The crew is professional and highly skilled. I would have no hesitation recommending CLC Tree Services.
