Tree & Shrub Removal in Decatur, IL
Removal of unwanted trees and overgrown shrubs to open up your Decatur landscaping.
Call Now: (831) 318-3949Not every removal job is a single big tree -- overgrown shrub lines, volunteer saplings, and small unwanted trees can crowd a foundation or block a view just as much as a mature tree. Stump Masters Tree Service handles both scales in one visit, digging or cutting shrubs and small trees and hauling everything off so the bed is ready for new landscaping.
Central Illinois thunderstorm season, straight-line winds, and heavy winter ice and snow put constant stress on Decatur's mature residential trees. which pushes fast growth on volunteer trees and shrubs that seed in along fence lines and foundations. Around Decatur and Lake Decatur, older properties especially tend to have decades of shrub growth that's outgrown its original footprint and needs full removal rather than another trim.

From the Decatur Crew
Central Illinois thunderstorm season, straight-line winds, and heavy winter ice and snow put constant stress on Decatur's mature residential trees. In Decatur, we often find one or two volunteer saplings hidden inside an overgrown shrub line that the homeowner didn't even know were there -- clearing them early is much easier than after they mature.
Foundation Clearing Near Lake Decatur
A home near Lake Decatur had decades-old shrubs growing directly against the foundation, trapping moisture. The crew cleared the entire bed in half a day, roots included.

Tree & Shrub Removal Customer Reviews
Stump grinding for three old stumps left by the previous owner. Machine made quick work of all three and they raked the chips back in like we asked. Yard looks so much bigger now.
A dead tree from the conservation area edge was leaning toward our shed. Crew came out within a couple days, took it down carefully in sections. Cleanup could've been a little more thorough but overall solid.
Storm knocked over two trees on our property, one across the driveway. They had us cleared out before I had to leave for work the next morning. Called at 6am and someone actually answered.
