Tree Service in Vienna, VA

A Vienna address can mean the incorporated Town of Vienna, unincorporated Fairfax County, or Dunn Loring next door, and each comes with different tree rules. King Tree Services sorts that out first. Our ISA Certified Arborist® (MA-6043A) and TRAQ-qualified assessments tell you what your trees need, and our company-owned 75-ton crane handles the tight infill lots where a large tree can’t be felled.

Town of Vienna or Fairfax County? Why It Matters

Inside the Town of Vienna, tree work tied to construction falls under the town’s own tree conservation ordinance and is reviewed by the town arborist. Homes with a Vienna or Dunn Loring mailing address outside the town limits follow Fairfax County rules instead, including the county’s stream-buffer protections. We confirm which jurisdiction your property is in before recommending a plan.

Not sure which side of the town line you’re on? We’ll check during the free assessment.

Meeting Vienna’s Tree Canopy Requirements

Since July 2024, the Town of Vienna’s tree conservation ordinance has required most new construction to reach a tree canopy target of 10 to 25 percent of the lot, depending on zoning, and builders must try to save existing trees before removing and replanting. We help homeowners and builders identify which trees are worth preserving, protect them through construction, and choose replacement trees with the canopy target in mind.

Sisc Johnson Customer

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!!

Will Moore Customer

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.

Amber Griffith Customer

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.

Protecting Mature Trees Through a Teardown Rebuild

Vienna’s 1950s and 1960s lots are being rebuilt one house at a time, and residential construction is a big reason the town’s canopy shrank by about 13 percent between 2011 and 2021. Roots compacted by equipment or cut for a foundation can kill a healthy tree years later. We fence the critical root zone before work starts, write a tree preservation plan for your builder, and can reassess the trees once construction is finished.
