Knowledgable, Professional & Precise
Living in Covina, we all know how the winds coming off the mountains can mess up our yards. One day your oak tree looks fine, and the next day a big branch is hanging over your roof after a windstorm. It's scary when you think a tree might fall on your house or your car. Most people in our neighborhood call us because they want their yard to look nice, but they also want to be safe. We have been working under the shade of Covina’s trees for years, from the historic homes near downtown to the newer spots up by South Hills.
Tree Care Services
Professional Tree Removal in Covina, CA
Sometimes a tree just has to go. Maybe it’s dead, or the roots are lifting up your driveway near Citrus Ave. Tree Removal is a big job that you shouldn't try to do yourself with a rented saw. We have seen too many DIY jobs go wrong where a branch ends up in a neighbor's window. When we do a removal, we plan exactly where every piece is going to land. We make sure your grass and your house stay safe. If you have a tree that is leaning way too far after a storm, give us a call before it decides to fall on its own. We handle the heavy lifting and haul away all the wood so your yard is clean.
Certified Tree Trimming & Pruning
Most people ask us, "How do I keep my trees from hitting the power lines?" or "Why is my tree growing so lopsided?" Tree Trimming and Pruning is about more than just making things look neat. If you don't trim your trees right, they can get sick or grow weak branches that break when the Santa Ana winds kick up. We see a lot of overgrown California Pepper trees and palms around here. If you let them go too long, they get heavy and dangerous. Our team uses the right tools to thin out the middle of the tree so the wind can blow through it instead of knocking it over. It’s like giving your tree a haircut that helps it breathe better.
Reliable Stump Grinding & Removal
After a tree is gone, you’re left with a big, ugly stump in the middle of your lawn. Tree Stump Removal is the best way to get your yard back. Stumps aren't just an eyesore; they are like a hotel for termites and ants. You don't want those bugs moving from the stump into your house.
We use a machine called a stump grinder. It turns that hard wood into mulch in just a few minutes. Once we are done, you can plant new grass or even a new tree in the same spot. It makes mowing the lawn a lot easier when you don't have to dodge a stump every time.

What do I do if my neighbor's tree is hanging over my fence?
This happens a lot in our crowded neighborhoods. Usually, you can trim the branches back to your property line, but you have to be careful not to hurt the tree. It’s always best to talk to your neighbor first. We can even come out and talk to both of you to find a solution that keeps the tree healthy and the fence clear.
What Is the cost for tree removal?
The cost depends on the details of the project.
It can range from the 100's to the 1000's. Please give is a call for pricing.

When is the best time to prune trees in the San Gabriel Valley?
For most trees around here, late winter or early spring is great. You want to do it before the summer heat hits. However, if a branch is broken and dangling, the best time to fix it is right now before it falls.
How often do we have to trim the trees?
Most mature trees require professional trimming every 2 to 3 years to maintain health and safety. Faster-growing species or trees near power lines and roofs may need annual maintenance. Regular pruning is the best way to prevent deadwood buildup and improve wind resistance. We recommend a yearly inspection to ensure your trees remain healthy and hazard-free.
How long does a typical tree removal or trimming job take?
The timeframe depends on the size, location, and complexity of the tree. Most residential trimming or small removals are completed within a few hours. Larger, more complex projects or commercial clearings may take a full day or more. During your free consultation, we will provide an estimated timeline so you can plan your schedule accordingly.
