St. Louis trees are tough — but so is caring for them. Missouri's freeze-thaw winters, ice storms, summer drought, and active pest pressures like the Emerald Ash Borer put real stress on the trees that shade your home, line your driveway, and anchor your landscape. When something goes wrong, you need a reliable local tree service in St. Louis, MO that shows up, does the job right, and leaves your property clean.
We are a locally owned and operated STL tree service company serving St. Louis City, St. Louis County, Saint Charles County, and Jefferson County. Our crew includes ISA-certified arborists backed by years of hands-on experience — handling everything from single-tree removals in tight residential lots to full-scale commercial tree care programs. Whether you need a fallen tree cleared from your driveway, branches trimmed before storm season, or a hazardous tree assessed before it becomes a liability, we are the team Greater St. Louis homeowners and businesses count on.
Every tree service we offer is performed by trained, insured professionals using the right equipment. No shortcuts. No subcontractors. Just quality work from a team that treats your property with the same care we would our own.

Safe, efficient tree removal is our most-requested service for good reason. When homeowners search for Tree Service St. Louis, they need a crew that can safely handle large trees near houses, fences, and power lines. Our experienced team removes trees of any size, from tight city lots to mature hardwoods in Ladue, Clayton, Webster Groves, and Kirkwood. We provide complete removal using sectional cutting, limb-by-limb takedowns, and crane-assisted methods for large or compromised trees. Wood, brush, and debris are hauled away, leaving your property clean and ready to use. We can also provide stump grinding during the same visit. Call us for dead, leaning, storm-damaged, or hazardous trees.

Proper tree trimming and pruning keeps your trees healthy, structurally sound, and looking their best — and it prevents the kind of branch failures that cause property damage during St. Louis storms. Our arborists follow ANSI A300 pruning standards on every job, removing dead, crossing, and weak branches while preserving the tree's natural structure and long-term health. We provide crown cleaning, crown thinning, crown raising, and structural pruning for young trees that need early guidance. We also handle deadwooding — the targeted removal of dead branches throughout the canopy — which is one of the most effective ways to reduce hazard risk and extend the life of mature trees across the St. Louis area.

After a tree is removed, the tree stump left behind continues to cause problems: it attracts termites and wood-boring insects, sends up unwanted root sprouts, and creates a tripping hazard on your property. Our stump grinding service eliminates stumps quickly and completely — ground to below grade so you can sod, plant, or pave over the area without a trace. We use commercial-grade stump grinders capable of handling any stump diameter, including large hardwood stumps from the oaks, hickories, and elms common throughout St. Louis County neighborhoods.

Mature trees add beauty, shade, and value to your St. Louis property, but weak limbs, split trunks, or poor branch structure can create safety concerns over time. Our ISA certified arborists provide professional tree cabling and bracing to give vulnerable trees added support without unnecessary removal. We inspect each tree to identify weak unions, storm damage, overextended limbs, and other risk factors before recommending the right system. For homeowners and businesses across St. Louis, MO and the Greater St. Louis area, cabling and bracing can help preserve valuable trees while reducing limb failure and property damage risk. Schedule an arborist consultation today.

Not every problem tree needs to come down. Our ISA certified arborists diagnose what is actually wrong with your tree — and in many cases, the right treatment can restore a struggling tree to full health. We provide full plant health care programs, deep root fertilization, tree disease treatment, and structural support systems including tree cabling and bracing. We are also one of the go-to local resources in Greater St. Louis for Emerald Ash Borer treatment. If you have ash trees on your St. Louis, MO property, preventive trunk injection is the most effective way to protect them — and timing matters. Contact us to schedule an arborist consultation and get a clear picture of your trees' health before a manageable problem becomes an emergency.

St. Louis severe weather does not wait for business hours. When a fallen tree lands on your roof, blocks your driveway, or snaps across a fence after a high-wind event, you need emergency tree service fast. We respond quickly to storm damage calls across all of Greater St. Louis — prioritizing situations where a tree or branches pose an immediate safety risk to people or structures. Our emergency tree service crew arrives equipped to handle downed trees on structures, large-limb failures, and uprooted trees in any location. If you have an active emergency, call us directly — do not fill out a form and wait. We pick up.
ISA-Certified Arborists on Every Job
Our team includes ISA certified arborists who bring credential-backed expertise to every project. When a decision needs to be made about how to safely remove a hazardous tree or whether a sick tree can be saved, you have a trained professional making that call — not a laborer guessing in the field.
Fully Licensed and Insured in Missouri
We carry full general liability insurance and workers' compensation. Ask any tree service company in St. Louis for a certificate of insurance before they touch a single branch. If they cannot provide one, walk away — uninsured tree work puts the liability directly on the homeowner.


Deep Knowledge of St. Louis Neighborhoods and Trees
We work in these communities every day. We know the access challenges on narrow Webster Groves and Maplewood lots, the large mature trees in University City and Ladue, the city permit requirements in St. Louis City, and the commercial property needs across Chesterfield and Creve Coeur. That local knowledge makes every job safer and more efficient.
Safety First on Every Job
Every project is completed with safety as the top priority. Our trained tree care professionals follow OSHA safety standards, use industry-approved equipment, and carefully plan each job to reduce risk, protect your property, and keep our crew safe while serving homeowners throughout Greater St. Louis.
Clean Work, Every Time
All debris is removed, your lawn and landscaping are protected throughout the job, and we do a full walkthrough before we leave. We compost and recycle 100% of wood debris wherever possible — because responsible tree care does not stop at the stump.

Tree removal in St. Louis, MO typically ranges from $300 to $2,500 or more depending on tree size, location, and complexity. A small ornamental tree in an open yard is very different from a 70-foot oak growing against a house in a dense neighborhood. We provide free, written estimates for all tree removal projects — contact us to schedule yours.
Permit requirements vary by municipality. Many St. Louis County cities — including Ladue, Clayton, and Kirkwood — have local tree ordinances that regulate removal of trees over a certain trunk diameter. The City of St. Louis has its own urban forestry requirements. Our team is familiar with local regulations and will let you know whether a permit is required before we begin any work.
Many trees that look severely stressed can be saved with the right care — proper pruning, deep root fertilization, disease treatment, or structural cabling. Our ISA certified arborists give you an honest assessment. We never recommend removing a healthy tree that can be safely preserved. If your tree is struggling, schedule a consultation and let us take a look before making a final decision.
