Lexington's tree canopy runs deep, from the mature bur oaks and sugar maples lining Chevy Chase's historic bungalow streets to the sprawling pin oaks anchoring the Hamburg subdivision lots. When those trees need expert care, Lexington Tree Service is the crew local homeowners call.
We've been serving Lexington and the surrounding areas since 2015, handling everything from routine trimming to emergency removals after ice storms and summer thunderstorms. Whether your property is in the heart of 40507 or just outside the city limits, our licensed crews know the local terrain, the dominant species, and exactly how to work safely around power lines, structures, and tight residential lots.
Tree Service in Lexington (40507)
Lexington's residential landscape is a mix of established neighborhoods with mature hardwoods and newer subdivisions with younger stock. We work with oak, maple, pine, and cedar regularly, and we understand the specific challenges that come with each. Mature trees on smaller lots, proximity to rooflines and utility lines, and the occasional HOA restrictions on visible removals all require careful planning and licensed expertise.
Our team handles permitted tree removals for trees above the city's DBH threshold, ice-storm hazard pruning to reduce limb failure risk, and full-canopy trimming and pruning citywide. We've worked in every corner of Lexington since 2015, and we're familiar with the local soil, drainage patterns, and the seasonal demands that come with Kentucky's climate. That experience translates to safer, cleaner, more efficient work on your property.

How a Job Works in Lexington
We start with a free on-site estimate. Call us at (859) 710-1736 or request an assessment online, and we'll visit your property to evaluate the tree's size, species, condition, and location. We'll discuss what needs to happen, whether that's removal, pruning, stump grinding, or emergency response, and we'll give you a clear, honest price with no surprises.
Once you approve, our licensed crews get to work. We manage access on tight lots, coordinate with HOAs if needed, and take extra care around power lines and structures. If a tree removal requires a city permit, we handle the paperwork and timing. We work efficiently and safely, using proper rigging and equipment to protect your home, landscaping, and neighbors' property.
After the job is done, we clean up completely. We haul away debris, grind stumps if you've requested it, and leave your property ready to use. You get a final walkthrough so you know the work is finished to our standard.
Tree removal in Lexington typically starts at a free estimate, because the cost depends heavily on the tree's size, species, accessibility, and what happens to the debris. A small oak removal might run $800 to $2,000; a large sugar maple with limited access could be $2,500 to $5,000 or more. Tree trimming and pruning start at $250 for smaller jobs and scale up based on canopy size and complexity. Stump grinding begins at $150 and depends on stump diameter and root depth. Emergency tree service is available year-round, and we'll assess urgency and safety first. The best way to know what your job will cost is to call us at (859) 710-1736 for a free, no-obligation estimate. We'll walk through the factors that affect pricing and give you a realistic number before we start any work.
