Remove the Trees That Threaten Your Home

Lopez Property Services removes hazardous, damaged, or unwanted trees safely and efficiently in Greer, South Carolina.

When a tree leans toward your roof, drops heavy limbs during storms, or grows too close to your foundation in Greer, it becomes more than a landscape feature. Damaged or unstable trees can fall during high winds, block sunlight from reaching your yard, and create tripping hazards from surface roots that push through the ground. Tree removal clears these risks and opens up usable space on your property.

Lopez Property Services removes trees from residential properties throughout Greer and nearby communities in the Upstate. The process includes cutting the tree in sections, lowering branches safely, and protecting your home, driveway, and landscaping during the work. Equipment is chosen based on the size of the tree and how close it is to structures. Wooded lots and storm-damaged trees are common in this area, and removal techniques are adjusted to handle trees with split trunks, shallow roots, or decay that makes them unpredictable.

If you have a tree that needs to be removed from your property in Greer, contact Lopez Property Services to schedule an evaluation and tree removal service.

How Trees Are Taken Down Without Damage

Tree removal in Greer begins with an assessment of the tree, including its height, lean, and proximity to structures or power lines. If the tree is near your home, it is cut in sections starting from the top and working down. Each section is lowered using ropes or rigging to control where it lands. Chainsaws, rigging equipment, and sometimes cranes are used depending on the size and location of the tree.

After the tree is removed, you will notice improved sunlight, better airflow, and more usable yard space. The ground where the tree stood will be clear of branches and large debris, though the stump will remain unless stump grinding is also performed. Removing trees that block views or shade gardens allows grass and plants to grow more evenly and reduces moisture buildup near your foundation.

Tree removal does not include stump grinding or root excavation, though those services can be added if needed. Lopez Property Services focuses on safe, efficient removal with minimal impact to your property, and can bundle tree removal with land clearing or stump grinding depending on the scope of your project.

You Probably Have a Few Questions

Before scheduling tree removal, most homeowners want to know how long the work takes, whether their property will be damaged, and what happens to the wood and debris afterward.

How long does tree removal take?
Most single trees in Greer can be removed in a few hours to a full day depending on size, location, and access. Multiple trees or trees near structures may take longer.
What happens to the wood and branches?
Wood and debris are hauled away as part of the removal process. If you want to keep firewood or have the wood chipped for mulch, that can be arranged before the work begins.
Will tree removal damage my yard or driveway?
Equipment is positioned to minimize ground disturbance, and branches are lowered carefully to avoid impact on nearby landscaping or structures. Any unavoidable disturbance is discussed with you ahead of time.
When should a tree be removed?
You should remove a tree if it is dead, leaning toward your home, dropping large limbs, or growing too close to your foundation or roof. Storm-damaged trees with split trunks or exposed roots are also candidates for removal.
Can you remove trees near power lines?
Lopez Property Services can remove trees near utility lines, though coordination with your utility provider may be required if the tree is directly entangled with wires.
