Fully insured with workers' compensation. 8 years in Lexington. 2,000+ trees safely removed with zero property damage claims. Get your free estimate today.
That dead oak leaning toward your roof isn't going to fix itself. Every storm season, Lexington homeowners lose thousands to preventable tree damage — crushed fences, smashed vehicles, damaged rooflines, and worse.
Here's what most people don't realize: if an uninsured tree crew gets injured on your property, YOU could be held liable. Most budget tree services carry only general liability — not workers' compensation. One slip, one fall, and you're facing a lawsuit.
You don't just need a tree service. You need a tree service you can trust with your home, your family's safety, and your financial protection.
That's why Lexington homeowners have called Canopy Tree Service for 8 straight years.
From routine trimming to emergency storm response, our experienced crews handle every job with precision equipment and comprehensive insurance protection.
Dead, dying, or dangerous trees removed safely — even in tight spaces near homes, fences, and power lines. Our crane-equipped crews handle complex removals that other companies walk away from.

In 8 years and 2,000+ jobs, we've maintained a zero property damage claims record. We lay ground protection mats, use precision directional felling, and our crane trucks handle removals over structures without risk. Your home, fence, driveway, and landscaping are protected — we guarantee it.
Here's what most homeowners don't know: if an uninsured worker gets hurt on your property, you can be held liable. Many tree services only carry basic liability insurance. Every Canopy crew member is covered by workers' compensation. When we're on your property, YOU are 100% protected.
Some trees can't be climbed safely. Some are too close to your house. Some hang over power lines. Our crane trucks let us remove trees that other companies either can't handle or handle dangerously. If another company told you "we can't do that," call us.
We know you want this handled. Not in three weeks — now. We provide same-day estimates whenever possible and schedule most jobs within days of approval. During storm season, our emergency crews deploy within hours.
When we leave, the only thing you'll notice is the missing tree. All debris is removed. All sawdust is cleaned. All tire tracks are addressed. We leave your property cleaner than we found it — that's not a slogan, it's our standard.
Canopy Tree Service was founded right here in Lexington, SC. Since 2018, we've built this company on one belief: every homeowner deserves a tree service they can actually trust — one that shows up on time, does what they promised, and leaves your property better than they found it.
When you call Canopy, you're not getting a call center. You're getting the owner — and a crew that treats your yard like it's their own.
"We had a massive dead pine leaning about 15 degrees toward our garage. Two other companies came out and said they couldn't do it without a crane — then quoted us $4,000+ just for the crane rental. Canopy showed up with their own crane, took the tree down in sections, and was done by lunch. Not a scratch on the garage. Total professional operation."
"After Hurricane Helene knocked a huge oak limb onto our fence, I called six tree services. Five didn't answer. Canopy picked up, had a crew here the next morning, and handled everything — removed the limb, fixed what they could, and even tarped the damaged section of fence until our repair guy could get out. That's going above and beyond."
"I manage 12 rental properties across Lexington and Irmo. I've used Canopy for the last three years for all tree work. They show up when they say they will, the pricing is consistent, and they send me photos before and after every job. I've never had a tenant complain."
"I didn't know about the workers' compensation thing until Canopy explained it. The other company I was going to use didn't have it. That would have left me exposed if someone got hurt in my yard. Canopy was $200 more but the peace of mind was worth every dollar. The crew was great — in and out in half a day."
Real jobs. Real results. Every photo is from an actual Canopy project right here in the Midlands.

Tree removal cost depends on the tree's size, location, condition, and accessibility. Small trees (under 30 feet) typically range from $300–$700. Medium trees (30–60 feet) range from $700–$1,500. Large or complex removals (over 60 feet, near structures) can range from $1,500–$4,000+. We provide free, no-obligation estimates so you know the exact cost before any work begins.
In most cases, you do not need a permit to remove trees on residential property in unincorporated Lexington County. However, if your property is within the Town of Lexington limits or is subject to HOA rules, restrictions may apply. We can help you determine permit requirements during your free estimate.
Yes — fully. We carry both general liability insurance AND workers' compensation insurance. This protects your property and protects YOU if a worker is injured on your property. We provide certificates of insurance upon request before any work begins.
During storm season and for genuine emergencies (tree on house, tree on vehicle, tree blocking road), we deploy crews within hours. For urgent but non-emergency situations, we typically schedule within 24–48 hours.
We remove all debris from your property as part of our standard service. If you'd like to keep the firewood, just let us know — we'll cut it to length and stack it where you'd like.
Every day a dangerous tree goes unaddressed is another day your property, your family, and your finances are at risk. Storm season doesn't check your calendar.
Fully insured. Workers' comp covered. Zero property damage claims in 8 years. Your estimate is 100% free with no obligation.
