City lots, street trees, overhead wires and lake-effect winters. Removals, trimming and stumps done carefully.
Syracuse is a short drive west from Madison County, and we take tree work all over the city and its neighborhoods. Removals, trimming and pruning, stump grinding, cabling and bracing, and emergency calls after a storm.
City tree work is mostly about space. Houses sit close together, driveways are narrow, and there is usually a wire, a fence or a neighbor's garage within reach of the tree.
Many Syracuse neighborhoods were built with big shade trees along the streets and in the back yards, and a lot of those trees are now old and large. Maples and oaks that were planted as saplings now hang over two or three properties. When one has to come down, it comes down in sections, each piece roped and lowered into the only open spot on the lot.
Overhead lines run through most of the city. Powerline certification matters here: limbs growing into service drops and trees leaning toward the lines need someone who knows how to work around them safely.
Then there is the snow. Syracuse gets hit hard by lake-effect storms off Lake Ontario, and heavy snow piled on limbs breaks weak branches and splits trees with poor structure. Trimming out dead and weak limbs before winter, and having a number to call when something does come down, both matter in this city.
Ash trees deserve a mention too. The emerald ash borer has been killing ash trees across New York, and a dead ash turns brittle and unpredictable. If you have one over the house, it is worth having it looked at.
Yes. On tight city lots we take trees down in sections, roped and lowered piece by piece, so nothing lands on the houses, fences or cars around it.
Yes. We are powerline certified and handle trees and limbs growing near overhead lines. Tell us about the lines when you call so we can plan the job.

Syracuse is one of the towns we cover from Madison County. These are some of the others, and the full list is on the service areas page.
Tell us what the tree is doing. Leaning, dead, too close to the house, dropping limbs, or already down across the driveway. Estimates are free, honest and fair, and they come with a real timeline. For storm and emergency work call rather than write: the phone is answered 24 hours a day, seven days a week.
