"Excellent. Jay showed up early, which gave me an opportunity to clarify what i actually needed to have done. Then the crew followed shortly thereafter, on time I might add. Brief discussion and left them to do the work, advising them that I would be back at 10:20 from an appointment. When I got back work was done and cleanup had been completed. Exactly what I asked for."

"Great job removing one large tree, two small trees, and pruning several others in my yard. Piedmont Tree Experts are just that--experts. Bob Lubbers knows his trees and what they need to grow best. They also have the big bucket truck to take the trees down safely, not only for themselves, but for your property. He took great care to show me how the trees would be pruned to best be improved and be in better shape to grow in the future. My trees look fantastic! I think the job improved the value of my home more than the cost of the job. He said my yard would look just like it did before they started--but it looked better because they cleaned up everything and hauled off all the debris. He did a job just down the road from my house. I had noticed for a long time that this business was practically hidden by all the trees. After Piedmont got through, the trees looked great and you could actually tell there was an office there. I would highly recommend Piedmont Tree Experts and would use them again the next time I need tree work."

FAQs for tree service projects in Charlotte, NC
You might remove a tree for free if it’s small, easy to reach, and your city doesn’t require a permit. Call the planning or public works office first to be sure. If they give you the green light, follow all safety rules, wear protective gear, and ask a friend to spot you. When in doubt—or if the tree is tall—hire a pro instead.
In many cities, you’ll need a permit—sometimes even an arborist’s report—before cutting down a tree. Start by calling your local building or planning department. They’ll tell you whether the tree is protected, how big it can be before a permit kicks in, and whether the work has to be done by a licensed pro. Get written approval before scheduling the job to stay on the right side of local rules.
It’s best to leave healthy trees alone—they add shade, boost curb appeal, and support wildlife. Take one down only if it’s dead, diseased beyond saving, or posing a real safety risk. Check local rules first; many areas protect heritage or street trees.
When removal seems necessary, bring in a licensed arborist for an on-site assessment and written recommendation before you book the crew.
If you’re torn between trimming, pruning, or full removal, start with an honest health check. Trim to shape the canopy or encourage new growth. Prune when you spot broken or diseased branches that could spread trouble.
Plan on removal only if the trunk is hollow, several major limbs are dead, storm damage is extensive, or the tree leans dangerously toward a structure.
A tree that’s 15 to 20 feet from your home isn’t automatically a problem. Healthy, small species often coexist just fine with houses. Trouble starts when the trunk shows decay, roots crack the foundation, or overhanging branches threaten the roof. Bring in a licensed arborist for a close look and written recommendation before you decide to remove or simply prune.
Timing hinges on size and complexity. A small tree might be gone in a few hours, a mid-sized one in half a day, and a giant could keep the crew busy for one to two full workdays. Add extra time if you’re grinding the stump, hauling wood, or navigating tight spaces near power lines or fences.
