Over the roof, nothing touches it.
When a tree stands over the thing you cannot afford to damage, every limb is lowered on a rope and controlled from the ground. It takes patience, and it is worth every minute.
- Priced by: Tree size, number of structures, access and the equipment needed
- Methods: Rigging, bucket truck or crane
What it is, and why it matters.
A tree over a house, a pool, a greenhouse or a long fence line is the hardest kind of removal. The tree cannot be felled, and dropping limbs is not an option. The solution is a plan for every piece, a rigging setup that holds the weight and a ground crew that guides it down.
Nashville Tree Service removes trees over structures across Middle Tennessee using climbing, rigging and, when needed, a bucket truck or crane. We protect roofs, decks and pools with mats and rope control, and we talk through the plan with you before work begins.
Four things done right.
Rope-controlled cuts
Pieces are lowered, not dropped, so nothing crashes onto a roof.
Protection built in
Landing mats and guards are part of the plan.
Clear plan
You hear how each piece will come down before work starts.
Tidy finish
Roofs, gutters and lawns are checked and cleaned.

10Removal Over Houses and Fences: common questions
Is it safe to remove a tree over my house?
Yes, when the work is planned. The crew rigs each piece to ropes or a crane so nothing falls onto the roof, and the ground crew guides it down.
Will you check the roof afterward?
Yes. We walk the work area, clear debris from roofs and gutters and point out anything we notice.
