“Had a massive oak tree hanging over my deck that was starting to look pretty wild. Buffalo Tree Service came out and trimmed it back beautifully, the crew was careful not to damage anything below, and they hauled away every last branch. My deck actually gets sunlight now.”
Tree Trimming & Pruning
“That dead pine in our front yard was a safety hazard and we finally bit the bullet. These guys took it down professionally and quickly, maybe 3 hours total with a crew of four. The stump's still there but at least the danger is gone.”
Tree Removal
“We needed the overgrown brush and small trees cleared from our backyard to make room for a garden area. Buffalo Tree Service handled it efficiently and left the space clean and ready to work with. Really impressed with how they managed the debris.”
Land Clearing
“Wasn't sure if our property had any trees worth saving or if we needed to clear everything. The arborist they sent out gave us honest advice about which ones were healthy and which were risky. Ended up removing two and keeping three, saved us money in the long run.”
Arborist Consultation
“The side yard was basically a jungle of overgrown shrubs and saplings. They cleared it all out and prepped the area perfectly for new plantings. Work was done in one day and the cleanup was thorough.”
Land Clearing
“Our backyard maple was diseased and leaning toward the house, definitely needed to come down. Buffalo Tree Service removed it safely without any damage to the fence or shed. Professional crew, fair price, and they were respectful of the neighbors too.”
Tree Removal
“After they took down our old birch tree, we had them grind the stump out. The difference it makes for the yard is huge, now we can actually use that space. Cleanup was spotless, no mess left behind.”
Stump Grinding
“Two large trees came down in our yard and the stumps were ground out completely. The whole job took about a full day with their crew, and they left the property looking better than before we called them. Definitely calling them again if we need more work done.”

Buffalo Tree Service is your trusted local partner for professional tree care throughout Western New York. Whether you're a homeowner in Buffalo's historic Allentown district, the tree-lined neighborhoods of Elmwood Village, or the rolling suburbs of Amherst, Tonawanda, and Cheektowaga, our team brings decades of expertise to every job. When Buffalo residents search for tree service near me, they find a company that knows the local landscape, the regional climate challenges, and the specific needs of our community.
We serve Buffalo and all surrounding areas with the same commitment to safety, quality, and customer care. From the Victorian homes along Delaware Avenue to the post-war colonials in the southtowns, from deep narrow city lots to sprawling suburban properties, we've handled tree work on every type of Buffalo home. Call us at (716) 710-8792 or request a free estimate to learn why your neighbors trust Buffalo Tree Service.
Tree removal is one of the most critical services we provide, especially when storms strike Western New York. Buffalo's heavy winter snow loads, lake-effect weather patterns, and aging urban canopy create ideal conditions for branch failure and sudden tree hazards. A mature Norway maple or silver maple can weigh thousands of pounds, and when a limb breaks or a tree falls, the consequences are serious. Fallen trees can crush vehicles, damage roofs, block driveways, and even threaten lives. That's why professional tree removal isn't just about aesthetics or convenience, it's about protecting your property and your family.
Buffalo Tree Service operates 24/7 emergency tree removal service because we understand that storm damage doesn't wait for business hours. Whether a tree has fallen across your home, a large branch is hanging dangerously over your roof or power lines, or you've suffered wind damage that leaves your property unsafe, call (716) 710-8792 immediately. Our emergency tree service team responds quickly to assess hazards, remove debris, and restore safety to your property. We're fully insured on every job, so you can rest assured that your claim and your property are protected.
Beyond emergencies, we also handle planned tree removal for trees that are diseased, declining, or simply taking up valuable space on your property. Whether you're clearing a lot for new construction, removing a dead ash tree that's become a liability, or taking down a mature tree that's too close to your home, our experienced arborists and removal specialists use proven techniques to bring trees down safely in tight urban and suburban spaces. Learn more about our tree removal services and how we handle the unique challenges of Buffalo's dense neighborhoods.
The cost of tree removal and other tree services in Buffalo depends on several factors unique to your property and situation. Tree size and species matter greatly, removing a 60-foot white pine costs more than a 30-foot crabapple. Access is critical too; a tree on a deep narrow lot with limited driveway space, or one surrounded by overhead utility lines and neighboring structures, requires more care and planning than an open-space removal. Proximity to your home, fences, and vehicles all factor into the final price, as does the scope of work, whether you need stump grinding, debris removal, or land clearing afterward.
Rather than guessing, we recommend getting a free estimate tailored to your specific job. For a detailed breakdown of typical pricing in Buffalo, visit our pricing page.
Beyond tree removal, Buffalo Tree Service offers a full range of tree and landscape care services. Stump grinding removes unsightly stumps and reclaims yard space after removal. Tree trimming and pruning keeps your trees healthy, improves their shape, and clears branches away from your roof and power lines. We also provide hedge trimming and shrub care, land clearing for development or restoration, and arborist consultation to help you make informed decisions about your trees.
Many cities and municipalities in the Buffalo area require permits for tree removal, especially for trees above a certain diameter or those protected under local heritage tree ordinances. Buffalo and surrounding communities may have specific rules about removing mature oaks, protected urban species, or trees in historic districts. Some neighborhoods and HOAs also have approval requirements for visible tree work. These regulations exist to preserve the canopy and character of our region, but they can add time and paperwork to your project.
Buffalo Tree Service is familiar with local permitting requirements and can advise you on whether your tree removal needs approval. We'll guide you through the process and help ensure your project stays compliant. Contact us for a free estimate and consultation, and we'll clarify what permits may apply to your specific situation.
