Learn moreWhy do San Diego homeowners choose Branch Pro San Diego?
San Diego trees have specific problems. Santa Ana winds snap eucalyptus limbs in the canyons. Coastal pines drop in salt-air saturated soil. East County oaks are stressed from drought and beetle pressure. Palms climb thirty feet past safe trimming height without a bucket truck. We know the species, the terrain, and the equipment.

All FAQsDo I need a permit to remove a tree in San Diego?
Depends on the tree and the property. City of San Diego Heritage Trees and street trees need a permit. Most trees on private lots in unincorporated county and most municipalities do not, but HOAs often have their own rules. We check permit status before we schedule, and we pull permits on your behalf when they're required.
How much does tree removal cost?
Most residential removals run $400 to $2,800. A small ornamental in an open yard sits at the low end. A mature eucalyptus or palm near the house, power lines, or a fence is the high end. Stump grinding is $150 to $450 separate. Free on-site estimate, flat-rate quote, no hidden fees.
Can you come out today for an emergency?
Yes. Storm damage, fallen limbs blocking a driveway, a tree leaning on a roof, we run emergency calls 24/7. Typical response is 60 to 120 minutes in the service area. After-hours calls go to an on-call lead, not a national dispatcher.
Do you clean up everything when you finish?
Yes. Every job includes full haul-away of limbs, logs, and debris. The chipper runs on-site, the truck hauls out. Your yard looks cleaner than it did before we started. Want the wood chips for mulch? We'll leave a pile.
Are the arborists you match insured?
The arborists we match are insured; ask them for a certificate of insurance for your HOA before work starts.
