Hazardous & Large Tree Removal
Specialized equipment and expert crews to safely remove the biggest, most dangerous trees.
When Trees Become Hazardous
Some trees are too dangerous to leave standing. They might be leaning toward your house, rotting from the inside, or split down the trunk after a storm. These trees pose a serious threat to your property and your family. Hazardous tree removal requires specialized skills and equipment that go beyond standard tree services.
Large trees present their own challenges. A mature tree can weigh several tons, and if it falls the wrong way, it can crush structures, vehicles, or power lines. Removing a large tree safely requires careful planning and precision cutting techniques. You cannot just cut it down and hope for the best. Every move has to be calculated to protect what is around it.
We handle hazardous and large tree removals across Cheyenne, and we have seen just about every difficult situation. Whether your tree is leaning after a storm or a massive oak that has outgrown its space, we have the experience and equipment to remove it without incident. Our focus is on keeping your property safe while getting the job done right.
How We Remove Hazardous Trees Safely
Hazardous tree removal starts with a detailed assessment. Our certified arborists inspect the tree to identify weak points, decay, and the direction of lean. We also evaluate what is around the tree, like buildings, fences, and utilities. This assessment helps us develop a removal plan that minimizes risk.
For large or unstable trees, we often use cranes or bucket trucks to dismantle the tree in sections. This process is called piecing down. We cut the tree from the top, removing one section at a time and lowering it safely to the ground. This method gives us total control and prevents the tree from falling unpredictably.
In some cases, we use advanced rigging techniques to lower heavy branches or trunk sections without letting them free-fall. Our crew is trained in rope systems and proper cutting angles to ensure every piece comes down exactly where we want it. After removal, we clean up all debris and can also provide stump grinding to finish the job.
Signs Your Tree Is Hazardous
Not every tree that looks big or old is dangerous, but certain warning signs mean you should take action. Here is what to watch for:
- •Leaning trunk: A noticeable tilt, especially after a storm, indicates root failure
- •Large dead branches: Dead limbs high in the canopy can fall without warning
- •Cracks or splits: Vertical cracks in the trunk mean the tree is structurally compromised
- •Decay or rot: Soft, crumbbling wood or fungus growing on the trunk
- •Root damage: Exposed or damaged roots that weaken the tree's stability
- •Overhanging structures: Large branches hanging over your home, garage, or power lines
If you notice any of these signs, it is time to call a professional. Our team can inspect the tree and determine whether removal is necessary. Sometimes cabling or bracing can save the tree, but if removal is the safest option, we will handle it carefully.
