Cutting down a tree is one of those jobs that seems simple until you’re standing at the base of a 40-foot oak with a rope, a chainsaw, and no idea what to do next. Whether your tree is leaning a little too close to the roof, has suffered storm damage, or just outlived its time in your yard, bringing in a professional tree service is almost always the smarter move.
