Tree removal, trimming and stump grinding for Livonia homes
Livonia is full of mid-century neighborhoods where the trees are now as old as the houses. Silver maples planted in the '50s and '60s have grown over roofs and driveways, and many yards still have stumps or dead trunks left from the emerald ash borer, which was first found in the U.S. right here in southeast Michigan in 2002. Whether it's one leaning tree or a whole backyard that needs work, the fastest way to get a fair price is a local crew that can look at the tree in person.
Call or send the form and we'll put you in touch with an independent tree company that serves Livonia's 48150, 48152 and 48154 ZIP codes, from the subdivisions off Six Mile and Newburgh to the streets along Hines Park.

- Get connected. We pass your request to a local tree service that covers your area.
- Get an estimate. They contact you, look at the tree, and give you a written price. No obligation.
Timing tip for oak trees
The Michigan DNR asks homeowners not to prune or wound oaks from April 15 to July 15, when beetles can spread oak wilt into fresh cuts. Plan oak pruning for late fall or winter. Removal of a hazardous oak is a different call; ask the crew how they'll handle it.
Before you hire anyone, check these five things
- Proof of liability insurance sent from the insurance agent, not just a photo of a card.
- Workers' compensation coverage for the crew. If an uninsured worker is hurt on your property, you could be pulled into it.
- A written estimate that says what happens to the wood, brush and stump, and whether cleanup and haul-away are included.
- How they'll protect your property: rigging plan near the house, mats for the lawn, who pays if a fence or gutter gets hit.
- Arborist credentials if the tree is valuable. ISA Certified Arborist status is voluntary, but it's a good sign for pruning and tree-health calls. You can look up a credential on the ISA website.
Livonia tree service FAQs
How much does tree removal cost in Livonia?
It depends on the tree's height, trunk width, what's underneath it and how the crew can reach it. National 2026 data puts most removals between $400 and $1,200, averaging about $850, with very large or tight-access trees costing more. The tree company gives you a firm price after seeing the tree.
Do I need permission to remove a tree in Livonia?
Trees on your own lot are usually your call, but the strip between the sidewalk and the street can be city right-of-way. If the tree is in that strip or you're not sure where your lot line is, check with the City of Livonia before anyone cuts.
What should I do if a tree is touching a power line?
Stay away from it and don't let anyone trim it who isn't a qualified line-clearance crew. Report it to DTE Energy. If a line is down, call 911 and DTE right away.
