I find the young men at Mullinax Tree Service to be very professional, friendly, thorough and kind. They work together well and seem to enjoy doing their jobs. The clean-up after the tree work is amazing.Jan BakerGoogle review, June 2026
Tree Service in Salem, SC
Tree removal, trimming, stump grinding and storm cleanup for Salem homeowners, about 30 minutes from our yard in Central. Licensed, insured, and estimates are always free.
Tree work in Salem
Lake Keowee and Lake Jocassee country. Steep, wooded, and tight to work in. We bring the right lift and rope trees down piece by piece so nothing lands on the house or the dock.
Salem is lake and mountain, and the lots are the hardest to work in of anywhere we go: steep drives, houses built into the slope, docks below, and tall pines and poplars leaning toward all of it. This is where the spider lift and the grapple saw truck earn their keep, reaching trees that no bucket truck could get to and lowering them in pieces. Salem is at the far end of our range, so we plan these jobs carefully and combine trips when we can.
Where we work in Salem
- Lake Keowee coves off Highway 130
- The Jocassee side and Highway 11
- Steep lake lots with docks

What tree work costs in Salem
There isn't a straight answer to that question. It depends on how big the tree is, what you are wanting completed, where it is located, if it's hazardous in any way, if we are able to access it, how much roping needs to be done, and if you would like everything hauled away or left on site.
So we will always need to send someone out to take a look prior to providing you with an estimate, but don't worry, estimates are free, quick, and easy. If needed, a payment plan can be discussed within certain limitations.
