“Had a massive oak tree hanging over our roof and it was making me nervous every time the wind picked up. St. Louis Tree Service came out and trimmed it back beautifully, they removed probably 30% of the canopy and the whole thing looks healthier now. The crew was done in half a day and cleaned up every last branch.”
Tree Trimming & Pruning
“Our street-side maple was getting out of control and blocking the neighbors' light. These guys shaped it up perfectly and made it look way more natural than I expected. Really professional crew.”
Tree Trimming & Pruning
“We've been putting off trimming our boxwood hedge for two years, it was totally overgrown. St. Louis Tree Service got it back to shape in one afternoon and hauled everything away. The garden looks like a completely different space now.”
Hedge Trimming & Shrub Care
“Bought a wooded lot and needed to clear it before building. They removed a ton of dead trees and brush, left the property clean and ready to go. The arborist even identified which trees were worth keeping for shade. Couldn't have asked for better service.”
Land Clearing
“After we had an old pine taken down, the stump was an eyesore. They ground it out completely, no trace left behind. Took about an hour and the crew cleaned up all the chips. Really happy with how smooth the lawn looks now.”
Stump Grinding
“Spring cleanup was overdue and our shrubs were a mess. Got a full consultation on what to trim and how to keep things healthy going forward. The team did the work right and gave us solid advice on maintenance.”
Hedge Trimming & Shrub Care
“Had a dead tree in our small backyard that was a safety hazard. They took it down safely without damaging the fence or anything else nearby. The whole job was done in a couple hours and they hauled everything off. Great work.”
Tree Removal
“Wasn't sure what to do with a couple trees that looked sick. Got an arborist out to assess them and they explained everything clearly, which ones needed trimming, which might not make it. Gave us a real plan instead of just trying to sell us unnecessary work.”

St. Louis Tree Service is the trusted choice for homeowners and property managers across the St. Louis metro area who need professional tree care, removal, and emergency services.

We understand the unique challenges that St. Louis trees and yards present, from narrow alleyways and overhead power lines to dense clay soil and the region's unpredictable weather.
When you search for tree service near me in St. Louis, you need a company that knows the local landscape, respects your property, and delivers results on time and within budget. That's where we come in. With years of experience serving residential and commercial clients throughout the area, St. Louis Tree Service combines expert knowledge with reliable, professional workmanship. Ready to get started? Call us today for a free estimate and discover why your neighbors trust us with their trees.
Storm season in St. Louis brings real danger to your home and family. When heavy winds topple pin oaks, silver maples, and sycamores, or when ice and snow snap branches and crack limbs, the damage can be swift and catastrophic. A fallen tree on your roof, vehicle, or power line isn't just an inconvenience, it's a safety emergency that demands immediate professional attention. That's why St. Louis Tree Service offers 24/7 Emergency Tree Service to St. Louis and surrounding areas. Whether a storm has knocked down a massive oak in your backyard or left a hazardous hanging limb threatening your roofline or gutters, we respond fast to secure your property and prevent further damage.
Large tree removal in St. Louis is complex work. Our crews handle everything from removing towering trees in tight residential spaces to extracting trees that have already fallen on structures or vehicles. We assess the risk, plan the safest extraction route, and use professional-grade equipment to bring down trees without damaging your home, fence, garage, or the neighboring properties that sit just feet away in our densely built neighborhoods. Storm damage, disease, or simple overcrowding, we have the skills and experience to remove trees safely and completely.
If your tree has fallen or you spot a hazardous limb, don't wait. Call (636) 556-6253 right now to reach our emergency dispatch team. We'll be there to assess the situation, secure your property, and get life back to normal. For non-emergency removals and consultations, request a free estimate and let us show you how we can solve your tree problems.
The cost of tree removal in St. Louis depends on several factors: the size and species of the tree, how close it stands to your house or other structures, whether it's healthy or diseased, how accessible it is for our crews, and what happens to the debris afterward. A small removal in an open yard costs far less than extracting a massive oak wedged between two brick rowhouses or a sycamore looming over power lines. Every job is different, which is why we provide a detailed free estimate before any work begins. For a full breakdown of typical pricing and service costs, visit our pricing page.
Beyond emergency removal, St. Louis Tree Service handles the full spectrum of tree and yard care. Stump grinding eliminates what's left behind after a removal, reclaiming your yard and preventing regrowth. Tree trimming and pruning keeps your canopy healthy, improves sight lines, and removes dead wood before it becomes a hazard. We also offer hedge trimming and shrub care, land clearing for new construction or renovation, and arborist consultation to help you understand the health and future of your trees.
Before removing a tree in St. Louis, know that many cities and municipalities in the metro area require a tree removal permit, particularly for trees above a certain diameter or those designated as heritage or protected species. Oak trees, in particular, may be subject to local ordinances. Additionally, if your property is in an HOA community, you may need approval before removing a visible tree. St. Louis Tree Service can advise you on the permitting process and help you understand what applies to your specific property. We recommend checking with your local building department or city arborist office, and we're always happy to discuss permit requirements when you call for your free estimate.
