Tree Removal for Wheat Ridge homeowners and property managers
In Wheat Ridge the removals are usually big — full-grown silver maple and elm on deep lots, taken down over garages, greenhouses and neighboring fences with rigging instead of felling.
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 Wheat Ridge
Wheat Ridge canopy is dominated by large silver maple, elm, honeylocust and the last of the untreated ash along 38th Avenue and the Applewood edge. That shapes how we approach tree removal here rather than applying one generic method everywhere.
Wheat Ridge lots are deep and often shared by two or three mature trees, with alley access behind many blocks along 38th Avenue. Several properties still have irrigation ditches and old outbuildings we work around.

Tree Removal in Wheat Ridge: 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.
