How do I know when a tree needs to be removed?
A tree may need removal if it’s dead, leaning dangerously, showing signs of rot, or has large cracks in the trunk or major limbs. Our experts can assess the tree’s condition and recommend the safest solution.
What time of year is best for tree trimming in Indianapolis, IN?
Late winter or early spring is ideal because trees are dormant and easier to shape without stressing them. However, trimming can be done year-round for safety or storm-related concerns.
Will you remove all debris after the job is complete?
Yes. We take pride in leaving every property spotless. Our crew removes all branches, logs, and sawdust so your yard looks clean and refreshed.
How do I tell if my tree is diseased or dying?
Look for peeling bark, discolored leaves, dead branches, or fungus growing near the roots. If you’re unsure, our team can inspect the tree and provide an honest diagnosis.
What’s the difference between tree trimming and pruning?
Trimming focuses on shaping and maintaining appearance, while pruning removes dead or diseased branches to improve the tree’s overall health and structure.
Can you handle emergency tree removal after a storm?
Absolutely. We provide 24/7 emergency tree service to safely remove fallen or hazardous trees caused by storms or high winds.
How deep do you grind a stump, and is replanting possible afterward?
We typically grind stumps 6–8 inches below ground level, allowing you to replant grass, flowers, or even another tree in the same area.
Are your services insured?
Yes, C & C Tree Service is fully insured for your protection. This includes coverage for property damage and worker safety on every job.
How often should I schedule tree maintenance?
Most trees benefit from professional maintenance every 1–2 years to ensure healthy growth and to prevent branches from becoming safety hazards.
