The team from Mullinax was great. They were priced reasonably, did the pre-work to determine the best way to take down our big tree and got the work done ahead of schedule. I would recommend them.Christopher LinkimerGoogle review, September 2026
Tree Service in Clemson, SC
Ten minutes from the yard. Campus rentals, old oaks over small lots, and Lake Hartwell pines leaning toward the dock.
Tree work in Clemson
Rental houses, landlords, and property managers keep us busy around campus, along with homeowners in the older neighborhoods where mature oaks hang over roofs and driveways. Lake Hartwell shoreline lots bring plenty of leaning and storm damaged trees too. We can work on a schedule that keeps game days and move-in weeks clear.
Clemson is a college town with a lake wrapped around it, and both shape the tree work. Around campus and downtown the lots are small and the trees are big, so most removals come down in sections with the bucket truck or the spider lift rather than being felled. Out on the Hartwell coves the problem is usually a pine that has been leaning a little more each year toward the dock or the house. Landlords call us between tenants. Homeowners call us after the first big storm of the summer.

What we do in Clemson
- Tree RemovalClemson removals are mostly big trees on small lots, so they come down in sections with the lift rather than being felled.
- Tree Trimming and PruningBranches resting on a roof and filling the gutters are the most common Clemson call, and we rope them down in pieces.
- Stump GrindingLandlords usually want the stump ground with the removal so the rental yard is simple to mow.
- Emergency Storm ResponseWhen a tree comes down on a dock or across a Clemson driveway, it goes to the front of the line.
- Lot ClearingWe quote commercial and utility sites too, where every tree inside a fence line has to go.
- Debris Removal and Wood ChipsAfter a car or a storm takes down a tree on a Clemson lot, we haul the whole mess, not just the trunk.
What tree work costs in Clemson
Clemson jobs come in every size: commercial and utility sites, storm-damaged trees over docks on the lake, a single oak over a rental house, a big tree that has suddenly dropped all its leaves. Each one is priced on its own.
So we look before we quote, and the look is free. If the crew is already working in your part of Clemson, the estimator can often stop by while he is nearby.
Mullinax took out a huge dead pine tree and removed two long overhanging branches that threatened the roof, as well as cutting back a tree that was hanging over the road. I couldn't believe how quickly the job got done, in less than three hours!Cindy BurkeGoogle review, September 2026
Questions from Clemson homeowners
Can you work around Clemson game days and move-in week?
Tell us your dates when you call. Home game Saturdays and move-in weeks are hard for everyone around campus, and we work with landlords between tenants when the schedule allows.
My oak dropped all its leaves in late summer. Is it dead?
Not always, but it needs a look. A big oak that sheds everything over a few weeks is under real stress, and the answer can be a careful trim or a removal depending on what the trunk and roots show. We will tell you which, for free.
A tree fell on my dock at Lake Hartwell. Can you reach it?
Yes. Dock and shoreline trees are a regular Clemson call for us. We bring the spider lift or the grapple saw truck so the tree comes off in pieces without anything else landing in the water.
