Services
Tree Pruning & Trimming
Structural pruning and canopy work that leaves the tree better able to hold itself up, not a chainsaw and a guess.
Emergency Storm Response
Priority response when a tree comes down on a house, a drive or a line. We clear it and we clean up after ourselves.
Wood Chipping
On-site chipping so the brush pile leaves with us instead of sitting in your yard until spring.
Stump Grinding
The stump ground out below grade and the lawn left the way we found it — no tracks, no torn turf.

I recommend Leo's Tree Service because they are Amazing. We had a very, very big catalpa tree exploded by lightning in our yard, between a fence and a building. When the job was done, the tree was gone and so was ALL the mess. And that tree was a monster-of-a-tree. They worked together like a well oiled machine with professionalism at every point. Such perfection. I will call them again without hesitation, should the need arise. Good people with reasonable pricing. And completed in one day. AMAZING!!! So, if you live anywhere from Oak Ridge, Tennessee to New Market, Tennessee and are in need of a tree service, choose Leo's Tree Service. You won't be disappointed. I also would like to Thank them ALL for being so nice to us, very much appreciated and admired.
5 out of 5 Stars- outstanding service and heart! If you know me you know I do not usually give 5 stars, but I had an fantastic experience with Leo's Tree Service! They were super pleasant to work with from start to finish, and their pricing was extremely reasonable and fair. On top of doing a great job with the tree work itself, they went above and beyond to safely rescue an opossum out of my tree! Its rare to find a team/ business that is honest, caring and affordable. I highly recommend them to anyone needing tree work!! Judy Roark
They gave a quote for multiple trees that I could choose to do over multiple visits. The quote was clear, and came with their certificate of insurance without me having to ask for it. They followed up after the quote to see if I had any questions. The guys showed up with professional equipment, all the correct protective equipment, and had professional attitudes. They did a great job and didn't stop even though the heat index was over 100 degrees. I will use them for the rest of the trees, and would recommend them to friends and family.
We had a very large Poplar tree brought down, along with help chopping up what was left of a base of a massive White Oak. What we really appreciated about our experience was the friendly demeanor but also prompt service. Our time has also been respected by arriving when promised. Also, I greatly am in favor of how tidy things are left and also the respect for our property. They do not smoke, or spit tobacco or leave trash while present. That goes a long way with with us. Highly recommend!
Great job! Great folks! Removed large tree off my garage expertly without additional damage. Thank John and Carl for being so diligent and caring while I navigated this stressful event.
John and Carl did a great job on removing some fallen trees and dead limbs for me and worked until after dark to finish the job. Great communication and a price much lower than anyone else quoted. Even gave a discount I had seen in a mailer on the quote without me even having to mention it. We all love family run businesses, give this small business a try.
