Safe Franklin Tree Removal Service
When a tree has to come down in Franklin, the approach depends on the property. We extract big trees along the Harpeth River and carefully dismantle storm-damaged ones in the tight downtown lots near the square. On historic homes where a crane can’t reach, our crew lowers limbs section by section with rigging so nothing below gets touched. Every removal starts with a free estimate and a clear plan you sign off on first.
Professional Tree Trimming Service
Older trees in Franklin’s historic core need real pruning, not topping or other harmful cuts that shorten a tree’s life. Our ISA-certified crew thins crowns, clears deadwood, and keeps limbs off your roof and lines. We’ve cared for Franklin trees since 1989, from the neighborhoods around Cool Springs and Fieldstone Farms to the properties along Lewisburg Pike.

Harpeth River flooding and hard spring storms knock down trees across Franklin every year. Our emergency crews run 24/7 and get on site fast when a tree lands on your home, your car, or blocks the road. We coordinate with Williamson County emergency services during major events. Call us any hour at (615) 260-5303 and we’ll handle it.
Stump Grinding & Stump Removal in Franklin
Old stumps around your Franklin yard get in the way of mowing, draw carpenter ants and termites, and drag down your curb appeal. We grind them out below grade so the ground is usable again, then haul off the chips or spread them as mulch, whichever you prefer. One stump or twenty from a lot-clearing job, we knock it out efficiently.

Why Franklin Homeowners Trust New Horizon
Since 1989 we’ve cared for trees across Franklin and Williamson County, for homeowners, property managers, and businesses alike. The historic district around Main Street and the neighborhoods near Carnton and the Carter House hold some of the oldest oaks in the county, and they need careful, patient work to preserve. Out toward Mack Hatcher Parkway and Westhaven it’s a different job: construction-stressed trees, young plantings that need shaping, and lots cleared too hard during development.
We size up each tree honestly before recommending anything, because the right call often saves a tree and saves you money. We’ve worked properties all over town, from the estates of Leiper’s Fork to the suburban lots of Sullivan Farms. Our family-owned crew is ISA-certified, fully insured, and we never subcontract. Call us for a free estimate and we’ll walk your property and give you straight answers.
Neighborhoods we serve across Franklin include Westhaven and Fieldstone Farms.

Tree Care FAQ, Franklin
Sometimes. Some Middle Tennessee cities and counties protect certain trees, especially larger or landmark trees and those on commercial, overlay, or floodplain lots, so a permit can be required. Dead, dying, or hazardous trees are usually exempt. We check the local rules for your Franklin property before any work starts.
Get everyone away from the tree and any downed power lines, then call us at (615) 260-5303. We run 24/7 emergency crews and put calls where a tree is on a home, car, or fence first. Snap a few photos for your insurance before we clear it.
Most removals run about $500 to $3,000, depending on the tree's size, location, and how tough the access is. Big oaks or trees close to the house or power lines cost more because of the rigging involved. You get a firm written price before we start.
For most trees, late winter through early spring is ideal, while they are dormant and the structure is easy to see. We handle storm-damaged and hazardous limbs any time of year, and we time pruning to keep each tree healthy.
Usually only when a tree falls and damages a covered structure like your home, garage, or fence. Taking down a healthy or simply dead tree is normally the homeowner's cost. If a storm caused the damage, we can document it to help with your claim.
Yes. We are fully licensed and bonded with $2 million in liability coverage and workers' comp, and our arborists are ISA-certified. You are welcome to ask for proof of insurance before we begin.
More About Our Tree Service in Franklin
Franklin is really two towns wearing one name, the historic core around Main Street and Carnton where oaks have stood since before the Civil War, and the newer growth out toward Mack Hatcher Parkway and Westhaven. Here’s a closer look at the work we do around town and what to expect before we pull up.
Removal Work That Respects What Franklin Has Grown
Near the historic district, a dying or storm-damaged oak often sits close to a house built decades before power equipment existed, so it has to come down in careful, roped sections with real thought given to what’s underneath and next to it. Out toward Mack Hatcher and Westhaven, we’re more often clearing trees that construction stressed, sometimes half dead from root compaction, sometimes leaning after grading changed the drainage around them. We handle tree removal in Franklin on both ends of that range, and every job includes a full site check and a firm written price before anything comes down, based on the tree’s size, access, and what’s around it. Liability coverage of $2M backs every removal, and we haul off every piece of debris the same day.
Pruning Century Oaks and Young Trees Alike
A century-old oak near Carnton needs a very different pruning plan than a young tree still finding its shape out in a newer Franklin subdivision. Our ISA-certified arborists handle tree trimming in Franklin on both, and for the older oaks we prune in the dormant winter window specifically, since cutting a mature oak during the growing season raises the risk of oak wilt spreading through the root system. Younger trees get structural pruning now to set the shape they’ll carry for the next fifty years, correcting weak branch unions before they turn into a bigger problem. Either way, we clean up completely before we leave.
Stump Removal Across Old and New Franklin
We handle stump removal in Franklin on century-old lots downtown and on brand new yards out toward Westhaven alike. Stump grinding is easy to add onto any removal, grinding well below grade so you’re not left staring at a stump for months while you plan what to plant next, and we’re careful around historic landscaping and fresh sod alike. We haul off the grindings and leave the site clean every time, whether it’s one stump by the driveway or several from an old lot clearing.
Emergency Response Anywhere in Franklin
Severe thunderstorms and a real tornado risk each spring put Franklin’s older canopy under real stress, and a century-old oak near a historic home is exactly the kind of tree that can fail without much warning. Call any time a tree comes down on your home or driveway and we’ll get a crew out fast, day or night, from the historic core to the newer neighborhoods out past Mack Hatcher. If the damage is storm-related, homeowner’s insurance usually covers the cleanup, and we can document the damage and work directly with your adjuster so the claim goes smoothly.
Not sure what your tree needs? That’s what a free estimate is for. Call New Horizon Tree Service at (615) 260-5303 and we’ll come take a look.
