Tree Planting in Raleigh, NC & Wake County

We offer professional tree planting services in Raleigh, NC and surrounding Wake County areas. Our team helps homeowners select appropriate tree species and installs them using proven planting techniques that promote healthy root development.

Tree planting is ideal for:

• Adding shade to homes and outdoor living areas
• Enhancing curb appeal and property value
• Replacing trees lost to storms or removal
• Improving landscape design and privacy
• Creating long-term environmental benefits


Choosing the Right Tree

Selecting the proper tree is just as important as planting it correctly. We help homeowners consider:

• Soil conditions and drainage
• Sun exposure and available space
• Mature height and canopy spread
• Distance from structures and utilities
• Long-term maintenance requirements


Our Tree Planting Process

Every tree we plant follows a careful and professional process:

1) Site Evaluation
We assess your property to determine ideal placement and spacing for long-term growth.

2) Proper Planting Depth
Trees are planted at the correct depth to prevent root suffocation or future instability.

3) Soil Preparation
Soil is prepared and amended when necessary to encourage strong root development.

4) Mulching & Watering
Proper mulching and initial watering help retain moisture and reduce transplant shock.

5) Final Inspection
We ensure the tree is stable, properly positioned, and ready to establish.


Why Proper Tree Planting Matters

• Promotes healthy root growth
• Reduces risk of disease and failure
• Improves long-term tree stability
• Increases survival rates after planting
• Prevents future structural and drainage issues

What is an Arborist?

About Lloyd’s Tree Service

At Lloyd’s Tree Service, tree care is more than just cutting and removal — it’s about protecting your property, preserving tree health, and keeping families safe.
For over 25 years, our team has proudly served homeowners and businesses throughout Raleigh, NC and surrounding Wake County communities with professional, reliable tree care.

We specialize in safe, responsible tree services backed by experience, proper equipment, and a strong understanding of arboriculture.


What Is an Arborist?

An arborist is a trained professional who specializes in the care, maintenance, and safety of trees and woody plants. Arborists understand tree biology, growth patterns, structural integrity, and the environmental factors that affect long-term tree health.

Unlike general landscaping, arboriculture focuses on maintaining trees in a way that promotes health, stability, and safety — especially around homes, driveways, power lines, and structures.


The Role of a Professional Arborist

Our experienced team applies arborist principles to every job, including:

• Evaluating tree health and structural condition
• Identifying safety risks or potential failure points
• Performing proper pruning techniques to encourage healthy growth
• Diagnosing disease, decay, or storm-related damage
• Recommending safe removal when a tree becomes hazardous

This knowledge allows us to provide honest recommendations — whether that means trimming, monitoring, or removal.


Why Hiring a Professional Matters

Trees can appear healthy on the outside while hiding internal decay, structural weakness, or root issues below ground. These problems often go unnoticed until property damage or injury occurs.

Hiring an experienced tree service helps prevent:

• Unexpected limb failures
• Damage to roofs, vehicles, and structures
• Utility line interference
• Costly emergency situations after storms
• Improper pruning that weakens trees long-term

Our goal is always to address problems early — safely and responsibly.


Services We Provide

Lloyd’s Tree Service offers a full range of professional tree and property services, including:

• Tree removal and hazardous tree removal
• Crane-assisted tree removal for large or high-risk trees
• Tree trimming and structural pruning
• Stump grinding and stump removal
• Shrub and hedge trimming
• Mulching and property cleanup
• Storm damage and emergency tree service

Every service is performed with safety, precision, and respect for your property.


Our Commitment to Safety & Quality

Tree work is dangerous by nature, which is why safety is our top priority on every job. Our crews use professional-grade equipment, proven techniques, and strict safety procedures to protect your home and everyone on site.

• Fully insured operations
• Proper work zone setup
• Controlled rigging and removal methods
• Clean and organized job sites

We treat every property as if it were our own.

• Over 25 years of combined experience

  • This was the second time I had Lloyd's do work for me and they always do a fantastic job. They are always professional and clean up after themselves. I highly recommend these guys!

    — Charles M. in Cary —
  • I called Stephen after another tree removal had completely blown me off, he came right out and did an estimate. Just three days later he and his crew expertly took 8 pine trees down in our backyard. I would highly recommend them to anyone who needs a true professional for any tree issues.

    — Craig M. in Wake Forest —
  • Called Lloyd's at 9 am, had an estimate by 9:30 and a three man crew with equipment by 10:30 am. Lloyd in the cherry picker bucket is an art form. He removed a tree that had fallen on the roof from a wind storm and had everything cleaned up better than it was previously by 4:30 pm. Nice family owned business that takes pride in their work.

    — Jon S. in Raleigh —
  • Lloyd reached out to me right after I did my Home Advisor search. He listened carefully to what I was looking to have done - tree trimming, not tree removal. He works in an organized and safe manner, communicating clearly to his crew. Lloyd's work is not only professional, it is art. I highly recommend that you call Lloyd, Stephen, Andrew, etc. The quote was fair; the service splendid. I don't mind yard clean-up, but they didn't leave any for me to do! Kudos to Lloyd's Tree Service on their excellence!

    — Susan S. in Raleigh —
  • Fantastic Service! Lloyd is a top notch guy whose word is only matched by his skillful tree cutting, shaping, trimming and yard clean-up services. My front shrubs and backyard hedges, shrubs, and Vines had grown totally uncontrollable for me over the past 18 years. They were taking over my yard space. Lloyd came out and did a personal overview of what I wanted done in the yard, TWICE, and talked with me about the work and worked within my budget (REASONABLE and AFFORDABLE). Uncommon nowadays! Personable, patient, great job trimming and cutting the mess so it looks Wonderful! Thanks Lloyd! I'II definitely have you come back for my next tree service and cutting work! I highly recommend if you want the Job done right the first time without the stress of unprofessional people in your life, give Lloyd a call first.

  • Stephen and his crew were true professionals. They were on time, did a great job, and left my yard better than they found it. I will use them again.

    — Ruth R. in Raleigh —
  • I contacted Lloyds Tree Service today (Monday) morning to get a quote to have a tree looked at that that potentially needed removed. Lloyd came out within the hour of my initial contact to look at the tree and my situation. He and his crew arrived the same day in the early afternoon to complete the work the same day. This is an excellent company that I can't say enough good things about..prompt service, reasonable prices and excellent work including clean up. You just don't find companies of this high caliber much anymore. Highly recommended this company and they will definitely be my first call in the future if I need tree service again!

    — Kevin S. in New Hill —
  • They are the best people to work with. I called and they came. Gave me an excellent quote to remove two trees, one had fallen and one just needed to be removed. They are hard working and did an excellent job. Lloyd and his crew go above and beyond, my yard looks great. I would give them 10 stars if it went high.

    — Dee B. in Willow Springs —
  • Great experience from start to finish!! Stephen clearly has lots of knowledge and expertise. He helped me decide what needed to be done (pruning 2 trees and cutting down an arborvitae), he communicated back and forth immediately, and he sent a great crew who did fantastic work and clean up at a reasonable price.

    — Katie K. in Cary —
  • They were here and got the job done very fast, worked hard. I bought their lunch since I was amazed how they all worked together seemed without stopping and resting. Great company very reasonable since got several estimates, but liked the way this company presented themselves...glad I gave them the work! Would recommend to everyone.
