Professional Tree Removal in New Haven, IN
Removing a tree isn’t just about cutting it down—it’s about doing it safely, cleanly, and without damaging your home, property, or surrounding landscape. At Melcher Tree Service, we bring over 30 years of local experience to every tree removal job in New Haven and surrounding areas.
Whether you're dealing with a dead tree, storm damage, or a hazardous limb threatening your roof, our team handles it quickly and safely with the right tools and know-how.
When Should a Tree Be Removed?
Tree removal may be necessary when a tree becomes:
- Structurally unstable due to age, decay, or disease
- Damaged by storms or lightning
- Too close to power lines, buildings, or underground utilities
- A safety hazard to people or pets
- An obstruction to a new building or landscape plan
Our team will assess the tree’s condition and provide a professional recommendation. If the tree can be saved, we’ll let you know. If removal is required, we’ll explain the process, costs, and safety measures involved.
Our Safe and Efficient Tree Removal Process
01
Site Evaluation
We begin every job with a thorough on-site evaluation. This includes reviewing the tree’s size, location, lean, nearby structures, and accessibility for equipment.
02
Safety Planning
Safety comes first—for your property, our crew, and your neighbors. We set up a clear perimeter, use spotters, and identify escape paths to avoid damage or injury.
03
Precision Cutting
Using climbing gear, aerial lifts, or cranes when needed, we dismantle the tree in sections, carefully lowering each part to prevent damage.
04
Clean-Up & Debris Removal
After the tree is down, we remove branches, logs, and debris from your property. Need stump removal too? We can grind the stump flush with the ground to complete the job.
