What We Do
Sesmas Tree Service provides a complete range of tree services including removal, trimming, emergency response, arborist consulting, and plant health care for residential and commercial properties. We emphasize safety, upfront pricing, and experienced crews across all job types.
Tree Removal
Core Service
Some days it's obvious a tree has to come down. Other days, it takes a trained eye and years of field experience to know when waiting will cost you more later. At Sesmas Tree Service, we offer reliable tree removal service in Charlotte and surrounding neighborhoods. We focus on safety, property protection, and straight answers.
Space gets tight on urban properties. Houses are packed closer, power lines run across most lots, and driveways plus sidewalks don't leave anywhere safe for a tree to land. Instead of dropping a tree from the bottom, we take it apart piece by piece. Every branch gets roped off, brought down carefully, and hauled away before making the next cut.
Emergency Services
24-Hour Response
Storm damage or unexpected tree issues? We offer fast, reliable emergency tree services when you need them most. When a tree fails after a storm, the clock starts immediately. Fallen trees trap vehicles, block access, and leave structures exposed. Our crews mobilize quickly to secure your property and remove the hazard.
A tree that's about to go doesn't tip over nice and neat. It spins around, drops big branches, and yanks roots out sideways. That chaos breaks up concrete, rips through fences, and tears into the side of your house. We get there fast and bring it under control.
Tree Trimming
Ongoing Care
Selective trimming to reduce weight on weak branches, improve clearance from structures, and maintain healthy tree form. Proper trimming extends the life of your trees and keeps them structurally sound without compromising their long-term health or appearance.
We evaluate each tree individually before cutting. The goal is to improve clearance, reduce failure risk, and keep the canopy balanced so the tree continues to grow strong. Every cut is intentional, not cosmetic.
Arborist Services
Expert Evaluation
Certified arborist evaluation of tree health, structural integrity, and root stability to guide removal or preservation decisions. When you're not sure whether a tree needs to come down or can be saved, you need a professional read, not a guess.
Our Tree Risk Assessment covers trunk rot, root failure, canopy imbalance, and other risk factors before they become property damage. We give you a clear picture of what your trees are doing and what they need next.
Stump Grinding
Cleanup & Restoration
Complete stump removal by grinding below grade eliminates tripping hazards and reclaims usable yard space. Once a stump is gone, the area is ready for lawn use, replanting, or new hardscaping without the eyesore of a protruding remnant sitting in the middle of your property.
We grind any size stump, including those left behind by other crews. The result is a clean, level surface with nothing left above grade that could cause injury or interfere with landscaping plans.
Storm Cleanup
After the Storm
Efficient cleanup and removal of fallen trees, broken limbs, and storm debris to restore safety and curb appeal after a storm event. Storm damage compounds quickly. Every hour a downed tree sits across a driveway or fence line is an hour of continued exposure and inconvenience.
Our crews handle full-scale storm cleanup, from scattered debris to large fallen trees across structures. We clear, haul, and leave the site clean so you can assess what comes next without the mess in the way.
Crane Services
Heavy Lift Operations
Heavy-lift crane operations for large or complex tree removals where conventional rigging methods are insufficient. Our crane capability allows us to safely extract trees in tight spaces, over structures, or on steep terrain where standard climbing and rigging introduce unacceptable risk.
Crane removal is often faster and less disruptive than the alternative. A tree that would take days of careful rigging can be safely lifted out in hours, with less ground disturbance and a cleaner result for surrounding landscaping and hardscaping.
Tree Planting
New Growth
Professional tree planting services to add value, shade, and beauty to residential and commercial properties. Trees give you shade, keep things private, and boost your property value as long as they're in good shape and standing strong. The right tree in the right spot makes all the difference.
We handle species selection appropriate to your site conditions, proper hole preparation, and correct planting depth and orientation to give every new tree the best possible start. We plant for long-term success, not just installation day.
Land Clearing
Site Preparation
Full-scale land clearing and forestry mulching for residential, commercial, and development sites. Whether you're preparing a lot for construction, opening up overgrown acreage, or clearing fence lines and easements, we bring the right equipment to get it done efficiently.
Forestry mulching converts brush, trees, and stumps into ground-cover mulch in a single pass. This minimizes soil disturbance, eliminates hauling costs, and leaves the site ready for the next phase of work without bare, erosion-prone ground.
Plant Health Care
Long-Term Health
Comprehensive plant health care programs including insects, pests and disease management, and tree and shrub fertilization to keep trees and shrubs thriving. Healthy trees require more than pruning. Our programs address root health, soil conditions, and pest pressure throughout the year.
We identify and treat insect infestations, fungal diseases, and nutritional deficiencies before they become structural problems or require removal. Preventive care is always less expensive than reactive removal, and it keeps your landscape looking its best year-round.
Pond Maintenance
Specialty Services
Specialized maintenance of detention pond areas including vegetation management to ensure proper function and appearance. Detention ponds require specific knowledge of aquatic and marginal plant management that goes beyond standard landscaping. Unmanaged vegetation interferes with drainage function and creates compliance issues for commercial and HOA properties.
Our crews handle mowing, brush removal, invasive species management, and vegetation control around pond perimeters to keep your stormwater infrastructure functioning as designed and looking well-maintained throughout the year.
Risk Assessment
Risk Management
Professional assessment of tree risk factors including trunk rot, root failure, and canopy imbalance to prevent property damage. Trees with internal decay or compromised root systems don't advertise their condition until they fail. A professional risk assessment identifies problems before they become emergencies.
Our assessments are grounded in arboricultural standards and give you actionable recommendations, not vague concerns. You'll know which trees need attention, what kind, and on what timeline, so you can make informed decisions about your property.
