Tree Removal
Professional Tree Removal Serving Horsham, Bucks County, and Montgomery County
You already know which tree it is. It's the one leaning toward the garage, dropping limbs on the driveway, or creeping a little closer to the roof every year. We take it down in controlled sections, protect the lawn, fence, and landscaping around it, and haul everything away.

Hazardous, Oversized, and Hard to Reach Trees Removed the Right Way
Every tree we remove comes with a list of things that cannot get damaged. A roofline, a deck, a garden someone spent years on, a car that has to stay in the driveway. We look at those first, because they are what you live with after the tree is gone.
Trust Planet Tree Service handles tree removal for homeowners and property owners throughout Horsham, Bucks County, and Montgomery County. That includes straightforward takedowns in open yards, dead and hazardous trees that need to come down carefully, and large trees in tight spaces where we bring in a crane. Rafael walks every job himself, so the plan you approve is the plan the crew follows.
Too Close to the House
Limbs over the roof, roots near the foundation, or a trunk a few feet from the siding. We take it down in sections so nothing lands where it should not.
Hazardous Trees
Decay at the base, cracks in the trunk, or a lean that keeps getting worse. If it is a risk, we remove it carefully. If it can be saved, we tell you that instead.
Storm Damaged and Fallen Trees
Whether it came down last night or last month, we cut it up, remove it, and clean up the debris it left across your yard.
How We Remove Trees Near Homes Without Damaging What Stays
The method matters more than the chainsaw. A tree in an open yard and a tree hanging over a garage need completely different approaches, and using the wrong one is how properties get damaged. Here is how we decide, and what each approach looks like on your property.
Straight Felling
The simplest and most efficient method. We cut the trunk to control the direction of the fall and drop the tree into open ground, well clear of anything you care about.
Piece by Piece Rigging
When there is no room to drop the tree, we take it apart from the top down. Each piece is tied off and lowered under control to a clear spot below.
Crane Assisted Removal
For the biggest trees and the hardest access, a crane lifts the tree out in large pieces. That means less weight on a compromised trunk and far fewer trips across your lawn.

What Your Tree Removal Estimate Covers
What the Price Includes
Your estimate covers taking the tree down, dealing with every branch that comes off it, and leaving the work area clean. The planning around your house, deck, and garden is part of the price too, because a removal that damages something else is not a finished job.
Access and Equipment
Before the job is scheduled, we work out exactly how the crew gets to the tree. That covers where the trucks park, which path the equipment takes, and whether a neighbor's side yard is the better route. Settling this at the estimate is what keeps your lawn and driveway intact on the day of the work.
Your Stump, Your Decision
Not everyone wants the stump gone. Some homeowners plan to replant, some want to build over the spot, and some are fine leaving it. So stump grinding is never built into the removal price. If you want it, it is quoted on its own and you decide.
Why Every Tree Is Priced Differently
Tree removal cost comes down to how much work and risk the job carries. Size, lean, decay, access, what is around the tree, and the equipment it takes all play a part. That is why we price it in person instead of from a photo.

Tree Removal FAQs
Why do tree removal quotes vary so much between companies?
Because companies are often quoting different jobs without saying so. One price might include chipping the brush, removing the debris, and cleaning up the area. Another might only cover dropping the tree and leaving the rest on your lawn. Insurance is another hidden gap. A crew working without proper coverage has lower costs, but the risk shifts onto you as the property owner. The lowest number only means something once you know what is behind it, so read each estimate for what it includes rather than just the total.
What happens if something gets damaged during the removal?
Preventing damage is the reason we decide the method, the access route, and where the equipment sits before the job is scheduled. Planning is what protects your property, not luck on the day. No honest tree company can promise the risk is zero, though, which is why we are fully licensed and insured. If something on your property is affected, you are dealing directly with the owner, not a call center or a claims line.
Will my homeowners insurance pay for tree removal?
It depends on your policy and on what happened. When a tree falls and damages a covered structure like your house, garage, or fence, many policies help pay to remove it from that structure, often up to a set limit. A healthy or declining tree you want removed before it causes a problem is usually not covered, and neither is a tree that falls without hitting anything. Your insurance agent is the only one who can confirm your coverage. Call them before the work is scheduled if you plan to file a claim.
What should I do if a tree falls on my house or car?
First, get everyone away from the area, and stay out of any part of the house that may be compromised. If any wires are involved, call the utility company and keep your distance. Do not try to cut the tree yourself. A tree resting on a structure is loaded in ways that are hard to see, and one wrong cut can make the damage worse. Take photos for your insurance company, then call us at 215-908-6049. We handle emergency tree removal across Bucks and Montgomery County, and we will be honest with you about timing.
How long does a tree removal take, and how disruptive is it?
Less than most people expect, because the planning is already done before the crew arrives. How long it takes comes down to the size of the tree, how it has to come down, and how easy it is to reach, and we will walk you through that at the estimate. While we are working, keep the driveway clear if we have asked you to, and keep kids and pets inside or well away from the work area.
Can you remove a tree on the property line or one hanging over from my neighbor's yard?
Generally, a tree belongs to the owner of the land where the trunk stands. A tree whose trunk sits across the property line is usually treated as shared by both owners. You can typically trim branches that hang over your side, but removing a neighbor's tree or a shared tree needs their agreement. When both owners are on board, we are happy to handle it, and we can plan the work so both yards are protected. For an actual dispute, a local attorney is the right person to ask.
