Why call us

Professional Tree Removal Done Right

Some trees simply have to come down. It might be dead, it might be lifting your driveway, it might be leaning a little further toward the house every year. Whatever the reason, taking down a full-grown tree is not a weekend project. It is heavy, unpredictable work, and it goes wrong quickly without the right crew, the right rigging and a plan for where every piece is going to land.

DCS Tree Services takes down trees across Richmond and the surrounding areas for families who want the job done safely, cleanly, and for the price they were quoted. We are family-owned, fully licensed and insured, and you deal directly with the people doing the work.

How it works

Free on-site estimate

We come out, look at the tree, check the access and give you a fair, no-obligation quote. The number we give you is the number you pay.

Our crew arrives on time with the right equipment, protects the surrounding area and brings the tree down in a controlled sequence.

Clean yard

Debris is cleared, the site is raked out and hard surfaces are blown clean. We leave the property tidy.

Questions we hear most

Frequently Asked Questions

It depends on height, trunk diameter, condition and access. A thirty-foot tree in an open backyard is a very different job from a seventy-foot oak leaning over a neighbour's roof with no equipment access. That is why we quote on site and free of charge, rather than guessing over the phone.

Stump grinding is a separate service, but it is easy to add. Mention it during the estimate and we will include it in the same quote and, wherever possible, the same visit.

We plan our access route before we start and use matting or plywood where ground conditions call for it. Protecting the property is part of the job, not an extra.

It helps to be there for the estimate so we can talk through exactly what you want. For the work itself, as long as we have clear access and clear instructions, you do not need to be on site.

Fully licensed and insured, and we are happy to provide proof before any work begins.
