We remove hazardous, damaged, and unwanted trees quickly to protect your property and give you peace of mind.
At Vander Plaat Tree Company LLC, tree removal is one of the most important services we provide for homeowners and property owners in Warwick. When a tree becomes unsafe, severely damaged, diseased, storm-hit, or simply in the wrong place, we remove it safely and efficiently with the right equipment and a clear plan. Our job is to protect your home, driveway, landscaping, fences, and nearby structures while getting the tree down in a controlled way.
Not every tree needs to come down, but there are times when removal is the smartest and safest choice. We often remove dead trees, leaning trees, storm-damaged trees, cracked trunks, hollow trees, trees with major root problems, and trees growing too close to homes, garages, sheds, power lines, patios, or septic areas. We also help with unwanted trees that block sunlight, crowd other trees, interfere with construction, or create ongoing cleanup issues from falling limbs, leaves, sap, or seed pods.
We usually recommend tree removal when a tree shows signs of serious decline or poses a risk to people and property. Common warning signs include large dead branches, deep trunk splits, visible decay, fungus at the base, root lifting, sudden leaning, storm breakage, and heavy canopy dieback. In some cases, the tree may still be standing, but the structure is weak enough that keeping it in place can be dangerous. If you are unsure, we can assess the condition and explain whether removal is necessary or if trimming may be enough.
We take a careful, step-by-step approach to every tree removal job. First, we inspect the tree, its size, condition, and location. We look at access, overhead hazards, nearby buildings, fences, utility lines, landscaping, and ground conditions. From there, we decide on the safest removal method. Some trees can be felled in one piece when there is enough open space. Others need to be dismantled in sections using ropes, rigging, climbing techniques, or specialized equipment to lower limbs and trunk sections in a controlled manner.
Our process is designed to reduce risk and avoid unnecessary damage. We plan the drop zone, secure the work area, and remove the tree from the top down when needed. This is especially important for large trees, backyard trees, and trees in tight spaces. We work efficiently, but we do not rush the safety side of the job. Proper planning is what makes a tree removal smooth and predictable.
We handle many kinds of residential and light commercial tree removal projects. This includes small ornamental trees, medium shade trees, large mature trees, storm-damaged trees, dead standing trees, split trees, multi-trunk trees, and hazardous trees near structures. We also remove trees that are hard to reach, trees tangled with other growth, and trees in overgrown parts of the property. Every tree presents different challenges, which is why experience matters.
Tree removal is dangerous work when it is not handled by trained professionals. Cutting a tree involves weight distribution, tension, decay patterns, wind exposure, fall direction, and the condition of the wood. A damaged or hollow tree can fail in unexpected ways. That is why we treat every removal with caution and use proven methods to control each part of the job. Our focus is on keeping your property safe and leaving the area as clean and orderly as possible.
If a tree is close to a house, garage, pool, deck, fence, or utility area, precision matters. We use the right approach for the site instead of taking shortcuts. Homeowners call us because they want peace of mind that the tree will be removed the right way.
Our tree removal service can include the full takedown of the tree, section-by-section dismantling if needed, cutting the trunk into manageable pieces, and cleanup of the main debris. We make sure the work area is cleared of branches and wood from the removal process. If you want, we can also discuss hauling away the wood, leaving firewood-length pieces on site, or adding stump grinding to fully clear the area. We explain the scope of work up front so you know exactly what to expect.
Removing a hazardous or unwanted tree can make your property safer, cleaner, and easier to maintain. It can reduce the chance of falling limbs, storm damage, roof impact, blocked driveways, and harm to other healthy trees nearby. Tree removal can also improve sunlight, open up usable yard space, protect foundations and underground systems from root issues, and improve the overall look of your property. In some cases, taking out one poor-quality tree helps the rest of the landscape thrive.

Common questions we hear from homeowners in Warwick about tree removal, safety, pricing, and what to expect when you hire Vander Plaat Tree Company LLC.
Some trees are clear safety risks, while others are more of a judgment call. We usually recommend removal if a tree is dead, leaning, storm-damaged, hollow, dropping large limbs, growing too close to the home, or showing signs of root failure. If you are not sure, we can take a look and give you an honest recommendation based on the tree’s condition, location, and risk to your property.
Tree removal cost depends on the size of the tree, its location, how close it is to your house, fence, driveway, or power lines, and how difficult it is to remove safely. A large tree in a tight space takes more time and equipment than a smaller tree in an open yard. We provide clear estimates so you know what the job involves and what you are paying for before any work begins.

They came on the day they promised. They were even early. The yard was so clean when they left. You wouldn’t even know they were there. Would use them again for sure.
Vander Plaat Tree Company removed a large tree for us. Jack & his crew are very professional, responsive and did a great job cleaning up afterward as well. Their rates are very fair. We will be hiring them for more tree work soon. Thank you Jack!
Great communication and stuck to the schedule he stated. Arrived at our home and gave a fair estimate on the same day as our initial contact. He gave a timeframe of 1-2 weeks and the job was completed 8 days later. Very pleased with the completed job and clean-up.
