Tree Service in Great Falls, VA
Great Falls homes sit on wooded acreage served by private wells and septic systems, with long driveways and mature hardwoods between the house and the road. King Tree Services plans every job around that reality: ISA Certified Arborist® (MA-6043A) oversight, TRAQ hazard assessments, and a company-owned 75-ton crane that can reach the tree without driving heavy equipment across your drain field.
Tree Removal That Protects Your Well and Septic Field
Nearly every Great Falls property relies on a private well and an onsite septic system, and some estate lots use drip-irrigation drain fields spread through the woods. A loaded log truck rolling across a drain field can crush lines that cost far more to replace than the tree work itself. We plan crane setup from the driveway or another hard surface, lay AlturnaMATS® ground protection wherever equipment has to cross turf, and keep traffic clear of the wellhead. If you have a septic site plan from the county, have it handy for the assessment.

Crane Reach for Long Drives and Multi-Acre Lots
Many Great Falls homes sit well back from the road, with gates, outbuildings, paddocks and pools between the driveway and the tree. From a single setup point, our 75-ton crane lifts sections over those obstacles, and static vertical rigging secures each piece on the line before it’s cut.
Tree Removal
Sectioned crane and rope-rigged removals for dead, storm-damaged or declining hardwoods near houses, barns and pools.
Tree Trimming & Pruning
ANSI A300 crown cleaning and clearance pruning for mature oaks, tulip poplars and beeches over roofs and long driveways.
Stump Grinding & Removal
Stump grinding planned around drain-field and well locations, with the grindings cleaned up when we finish.
Tree Planting & Replacement
Replanting with native species suited to wooded estate lots and the space they’ll fill at maturity.
Tree Health & Diagnosis
TRAQ-qualified assessments of decay, root damage and emerald ash borer in the large trees closest to your home.
Emergency Storm Cleanup
24/7 response when a fallen tree blocks your driveway or lands on the house, with crane support for heavy trunks.
Tree Cabling & Support Systems
Cabling and bracing for heritage trees with split-prone forks, so a landmark tree can stay.
Land & Property Clearing
Selective clearing for additions, pools and paddocks that keeps equipment off septic areas and protects the trees you keep.

What Our Customers Say About Our Tree Services
These reviews are reproduced exactly as customers posted them on Google.
Excellent!!! Edgar and his crew removed a ton of trees, branches, and vines from our 5 acre lot. They are all extremely professional, knowledgeable, and friendly. Staff safety and the safety of your property is a top priority for them and it shows. They removed huge branches over our home so this was also a priority of ours. Reasonably priced and they did an excellent job cleaning up after they were done. I have already scheduled to have them come back and do more work. Thanks so much!!
We recently had Kings Tree Services at our house to repoint/repair our mulch bed retaining walls, as well as clear out and refill the mulch beds. They also added a walkway in our backyard which not only looks great but has also helped address the a problem area of our yard that frequently remained muddy. Their services were fantastic and there pricing can't be beat. I would highly recommend their services.
Edgar was fantastic to work with! We had a very large tree fall down in a storm and wanted it removed. Within the same day that I called, he came out to assess what needed to be done. I would absolutely recommend using this company for any tree removal service. They did an excellent job, Especially with cleaning up all the debris at the end.
Difficult Run, the Potomac Gorge and Stream-Buffer Rules
Great Falls drains to the Potomac through Difficult Run and other stream valleys, and properties near the Potomac Gorge get extra scrutiny from Fairfax County. Where a lot falls inside a Chesapeake Bay Resource Protection Area, the county has to approve removing trees, including dead or dying ones, and can limit what equipment is used. We identify these constraints during the assessment, before a crane is ever scheduled.

Tree Protection for Estate Renovations
Additions, pool projects and rebuilds on wooded lots can kill mature trees years after the contractors leave. Before construction starts, we fence the critical root zone of the trees you want to keep, prepare a tree preservation plan, and prune to ANSI A300 standards to reduce stress. We serve properties throughout:
