Highland Tree Service is a locally owned and operated tree removal  company operating out of Cicero, NY and have been proudly serving  the surrounding communities since we first opened in 2011.  ​ We specialize in tree trimming, tree removal, stump removal, lot clearing,  and emergency tree service. Highland Tree Service is your one stop shop for  all your tree removal and landscaping needs. No job is too big or too small!

"We had a big tree fall on our house during an ice storm and Highland Trees had a solution as if it was second nature. I contacted several tree removal services and while some of them had a good plan, Highland Trees had both a plan and equipment to do it. It was in a tight spot where most equipment couldn’t fit and there was no access to the surrounding area. They scheduled a time to remove it and coordinated with a crane to cut and lift pieces of the tree up and out. It was all done in one day and went smoothly. Their initial price was just under other services while the final price came out a bit lower than I expected. I 100% would recommend them, especially for anything that seems impossible."

Tree & stump removal, pruning, trunk injection, cabling, lighting protection, mulch, firewood & timber salvaged lumber

"Keith was very responsive. They arrived the day after they fell. Cut them up into long lengths so my contractor could hall them away to be milled. The tree tops and debris was all put in a large chipper and they gave me the mulch and put it where I asked them to. All in all it was a excellent experience and I would highly recommend them. I thought I would have a lot of clean up but I had none. Thank you to everyone at limb walker!"

FAQs for tree service projects in Ithaca, NY

Professionals remove shrubs by first cutting back the branches using tools like pruning shears or chainsaws for thicker stems. They then cut the base close to the ground and dig around the root system to remove the roots completely, preventing regrowth. Finally, they’ll ensure proper disposal of branches and debris while complying with local regulations.

A bush stump will regrow if any portion of its root system remains. When even a small section of roots is left behind, new shoots emerge and regenerate the bush with leggy, spreading growth. Working with a professional landscaper ensures the complete removal of the stump and all roots, which is essential to prevent any regrowth, ensuring that the area remains clear and maintenance is minimized.
