Tree Removal for Westminster homeowners and property managers
Westminster removals are mostly young-to-middle-aged trees that failed structurally — a split leader after wet snow, or a pear that tore out at the union.
Dead ash, storm-split silver maples and oversized cottonwoods are the three takedowns we do most. Our climbers rig and lower each section over fences, sheds and power drops instead of dropping whole trees, then haul everything out and blow the yard clean before we leave.

The trees we see most in Westminster
Westminster canopy is dominated by ten- to twenty-five-year-old ash, autumn blaze maple and pear with competing leaders that split in wet spring snow. That shapes how we approach tree removal here rather than applying one generic method everywhere.
Westminster subdivisions are newer, so most yards are fenced with tight gates and young sod. We usually crane or rig over fences rather than drag through side yards, and we mat wherever wheels have to cross turf.

Tree Removal in Westminster: common questions
How much does tree removal cost?
Cost depends on height, trunk diameter, canopy spread and access. A tree over a roof, pool or power service takes longer to rig than the same tree in an open yard. Estimates are free and fixed before we start.
Do I need a permit to remove a tree?
Trees on private property generally do not require a permit in Arvada, Wheat Ridge or Lakewood. Trees in the public right-of-way — the strip between sidewalk and street — are city-managed and do require approval. We help you file that request.
Is the stump included?
Stump grinding is priced separately but can be done in the same visit. We grind 6–8 inches below grade so the spot can be re-sodded or replanted.
Are you insured?
Yes — general liability and workers' compensation. We provide a certificate of insurance before any work begins, and you can have it sent directly from our carrier.
