Charlottesville Tree Service provides free, no-obligation estimates with transparent pricing. Factors like proximity to structures, power lines, or difficult access may increase costs. They'll assess your specific situation and provide a detailed quote before any work begins.
Are your arborists certified and insured?
Yes. Charlottesville Tree Service employs ISA-certified arborists who are trained in tree health, safety, and proper pruning techniques. They carry full liability insurance and workers' compensation coverage to protect both their crew and your property. You can request proof of insurance before any work is scheduled.
What happens during a tree service appointment?
For most jobs, they'll start with a free on-site consultation where a certified arborist assesses the tree(s), discusses your goals, and provides a detailed estimate. Once you approve, they'll schedule the work at your convenience. On service day, their crew arrives with professional equipment, performs the work safely and efficiently, and completes a thorough cleanup — including hauling away debris and grinding stumps if requested. Most residential jobs are completed in a single day.
Do you offer emergency tree removal services?
Yes. Charlottesville Tree Service provides emergency tree removal and storm damage cleanup for urgent situations like fallen trees blocking driveways, trees on structures, or hazardous limbs threatening property or power lines. Call (434) 443-7706 to reach their team. Emergency response times vary based on demand, especially after severe weather, but they prioritize dangerous situations.
What areas do you serve?
They serve Charlottesville, Albemarle County, and surrounding areas in Central Virginia, including neighborhoods like Belmont, Crozet, Ivy, Keswick, and surrounding towns within roughly 30 miles of Charlottesville. Call to confirm service availability for your specific location.
Will you clean up after the job?
Absolutely. Thorough cleanup is included in every service. They remove all branches, logs, and debris, rake the work area, and leave your property tidy. Stump grinding and wood chipping are available upon request. Many customers note in reviews that their yards looked better after the service than before.
How do I get a quote?
Call (434) 443-7706 or visit their website at cvilletreeservice.com to request a free estimate. They'll schedule an on-site visit to assess the tree(s) and provide a detailed, transparent quote with no obligation. Most estimates are provided within 24–48 hours of the initial visit.
Can you help with routine tree maintenance, or just removal?
They offer both removal and maintenance services. This includes pruning and trimming to improve tree health and appearance, crown thinning to reduce weight and wind resistance, deadwood removal, cabling and bracing for structural support, and health assessments by certified arborists. Regular maintenance helps prevent costly removals and keeps your trees healthy for years.
“Really happy with the work Charlottesville tree service did on our young (but very fast-growing) oak tree. I wanted to make sure the tree was set up for long-term success, and they knew exactly how to shape it without overdoing it. They were easy to work with, showed up on time, and walked me through what they were doing and why. The tree already looks sturdier and better balanced. Would absolutely use them again.”

“Although I’ve had a lot of tree work done in the past, this was my first experience with Charlottesville Tree Service. Everyone I dealt with was friendly & knowledgeable. The work was performed in a timely manner, and at a very reasonable cost. Workers arrived on site with a well-planned course of action, maximizing efficiency and minimizing any collateral damage to nearby shrubs & trees. The entire team was safety minded & conscientious, and seemed to take pride in their work. They did an excellent job; I was extremely pleased. I highly recommend this business!”

“Charlottesville Tree Service removed two massive, old Southern red oaks from our backyard, and I’m still blown away by how smoothly everything went. It was a very technical job involving a large crane and lifting every section of the tree up and over our house to the front. The crew handled it with an unbelievable level of skill, teamwork, and efficiency. They also went out of their way to protect both our yard and our neighbors’ properties, which we really appreciated. Truly outstanding service from start to finish.”

“This was my first experience hiring a company to remove fallen trees in my backyard, and I was very pleased with the work done by Charlottesville Tree Service. They are honest, thorough, and operate with integrity. I highly recommend this company to anyone who is looking for tree removal and/or pruning services. Andy is an expert arborist who provided valuable insight and information. He also took the time to answer any questions or concerns during the consultation and quickly responded to follow-up questions via email and text. Despite having to work in a confined space, Jadon and his two coworkers did an excellent and impressive job of removing the trees in a quick and efficient manner while also respecting the surrounding property. Admin. Assistant Elyssa is superb at helping customers to set up consultation and service appointments. She was easy to reach for questions and followed up once the job was complete to ensure that my experience was satisfactory.”
