What Do Our Clients Say?

Amber W.

S.B. Tree Service Client
Simon and his team did an AMAZING job! They removed a huge Magnolia tree that was right next to the house and trimmed a good portion of a neighboring tree that was hanging into my yard. They were on time, hard working (was amazed at how quickly this big job was accomplished), polite, and left the area extremely clean. Highly recommend!

Sarah V.

S.B. Tree Service Client
I was very impressed with the professionalism of the owner of this business. He’s young and every bit has earned my respect. I would gladly recommend him to my friends and family. Before they left, they tidied up daily. Prices were competitive. They did the work the old fashioned way, without the use of a crane.

Josh M.

S.B. Tree Service Client
These guys were wonderful. I did an extensive amount of research prior to picking them and called multiple competitive companies. They were very honest, straightforward, and the price was extremely competitive. I will admit I had worries and concerns given the price was lower than others, but after seeing results, I was thrilled.

If I could give 6 stars, I would! Chip, who gave the estimate, is an arborist who arrived on time and understood and answered my questions. The two men who did the tree trimming were careful, polite, and did everything as planned.

Frequently Asked Questions

Please reach us at (513) 712-8188 if you cannot find an answer to your question.

In the City of Cincinnati and surrounding municipalities, permit requirements depend on location, tree size, and condition. Some neighborhoods and jurisdictions require permits for removing healthy or protected trees, while hazardous or storm-damaged trees may qualify for emergency removal. Requirements can also differ between Cincinnati, Hamilton County suburbs, and Northern Kentucky cities. We help determine whether a permit is needed and assist with documentation when required.

If a tree falls due to a storm and damages a home, garage, fence, driveway, or blocks access, most insurance policies will cover removal and related cleanup. If a tree is dead, leaning, or removed for preventive reasons, insurance usually does not apply. We provide photos, written estimates, and documentation to support insurance claims when coverage is available.

Common warning signs in the Cincinnati area include cracks in the trunk, large dead limbs, sudden leaning after heavy rain, soil lifting near the roots, and fungal growth at the base. Clay-heavy soils and storm cycles can weaken root systems over time. If you’re unsure, a professional inspection can determine whether a tree poses a safety risk.

Yes. Trees near structures or utility lines require careful planning and professional equipment. We use crane-assisted removal, bucket trucks, and controlled rigging to safely remove trees in tight spaces. When necessary, we coordinate with local utility providers to ensure the work is completed safely and without disruption.

Yes. We provide 24/7 emergency tree service for storm damage, fallen trees, split trunks, and immediate hazards. Our crews respond quickly to restore access, remove dangerous debris, and help secure properties after severe weather events common to the Cincinnati region.
