Put our highly skilled tree removal specialists to work. With more than 30 years of experience and thousands of happy clients, we’re proud to provide high-quality tree removal services to Connecticut residents.
The first step in the tree removal process is to have one of our team members come out to your property for an assessment. During this initial consultation, we will discuss your concerns and objectives. We will take a look at the trees in question, the layout of your property, and evaluate the logistical elements of the job. We are great communicators and will keep you informed as we determine which equipment and access methods will be used to deliver your results.
Take a look below at some key elements involved in getting a tree removal project done!
We love trees; however, there comes a time when removal may be the most practical course of action.
Removal may be necessary if:
- The trees pose a threat to your assets (driveway, shed, loved-ones, playscape).
- The trees detract from the aesthetic value of your property.
- The trees shade your pool during prime sunbathing hours.
- Your property feels over-crowded and you want to expand your lawn.
Our licensed arborist and team of professionals have years of experience assessing the quality of trees and how they may impact your home.
This piece of equipment enables us to work on hazardous trees from a safe distance. With an impressive 75 feet reach we are able to accomplish most residential tree removal jobs with this beast!
The use of a bucket truck also increases the speed and efficiency with which we get the job done… which means less cost to you!
All it takes is a trained climber, a chainsaw and some ropes.
We have climbers on our team with over 25 years of experience in the field. Whatever it takes, we get the job done safely.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
How do I know if a tree needs to be removed?
A tree in decline gives you signs. Visible decay, large dead branches, root damage, hollow sections in the trunk, or signs of disease can all indicate that removal may be necessary. Location also plays a role—trees growing too close to structures or interfering with power lines can create safety risks. If you’re unsure, we’re happy to assess the tree and help you determine the best course of action.
Do I need a permit to remove a tree in Connecticut?
In most cases, trees on private residential property can be removed without a permit. However, requirements vary by town across Connecticut. Some urban municipalities require permits for removing larger or protected trees. Additional approvals may also be needed if your property is located in or near designated wetlands. Because local regulations can differ, it’s always best to check with your town office—or work with a professional tree service that can help guide you through the process.
How much does tree removal cost?
Tree removal costs vary based on several factors, including tree size, location, accessibility, and condition. No two jobs are exactly the same. Trees near structures or power lines typically cost more due to the added complexity and safety precautions.
Can you remove a tree close to my house or building?
Yes. Our experienced team is trained to safely remove trees in tight or confined areas. We use specialized techniques and advanced rigging systems to carefully control each piece as it’s removed. Whether the tree is near your home, garage, fence, or other structures, we take the necessary precautions to protect your property throughout the process.
What happens to the tree after it is removed?
As the tree is taken down, smaller branches are typically chipped on-site and loaded directly into our trucks for removal. This helps keep the work area clean and safe throughout the process. For larger wood that cannot be chipped, you can choose to have it left on-site for your use or hauled away by
our crew.
Do you remove the stump as well?
Tree removal does not always include stump removal. If stump grinding is not specified, we cut the stump as low and flat as possible. Stump grinding is available as an additional service to fully remove the remaining stump.
How long does tree removal take?
Most residential tree removals can be completed in a few hours to a full day, depending on the size of the
tree and site conditions.
What time of year is best for tree removal?
Tree removal can be performed year-round. Winter, Spring, Summer, or Fall.
Will tree removal damage my yard?
At Arbortech, we take pride in delivering high-quality work while minimizing impact on your property. We use protective lawn mats, thoughtful planning, and careful equipment operation to reduce disturbance as much as possible. That said, some minor lawn impact can occur—especially with larger trees or when heavy equipment is necessary. We’ll walk you through what to expect during your estimate so there are no surprises. Our goal is simple: a safe, professional job with your property left in the best condition possible.
Is tree removal covered by insurance?
Insurance may cover tree removal if the tree falls due to a covered event (like a storm) and damages a structure. Preventative tree removal is typically not covered.
Do you offer emergency tree removal?
Yes, we have extensive experience handling emergency tree removal situations. We prioritize response based on urgency to ensure the most critical issues are addressed as quickly as possible. We’re also experienced in working with insurance companies and can help guide you through the process during these challenging situations.
Why should I hire a professional tree removal company?
Hiring a professional will ensure the job is done safely and efficiently. Tree removal is a physically demanding process. From cutting and rigging to hauling and cleanup, it requires specialized equipment and a coordinated team to do it right. Our trained professionals and equipment allow us to handle the job efficiently—making the process significantly easier and less disruptive for you. More importantly, a reputable and licensed tree service will carry insurance, helping protect you from liability in the event of property damage or injury. Attempting to remove a tree on your own can create insurance complications, as damage caused during DIY work may not be covered under a standard homeowner’s policy. For your safety, your property, and peace of mind, it’s best to leave tree removal to the professionals.
