Tree Service in Cameron Park
Cameron Park is our home turf for tree service, so the answer is yes. One call and a local tree service gets sent your way. Maybe the wind just dropped a pine limb on the fence. Maybe a big oak is leaning over the roof and you don't like how it looks. Either way, call us.
Our job is the phone: we answer, track down a tree company close to Cameron Park, and get a time on the books. No charge for that.
Take a breath. Here's what to do first.
- Get people and pets away from the tree.
- Keep clear of wires. Stand 10 feet off, and so should your rake or ladder. That's PG&E's advice. A line down or someone injured means 911.
- If it's safe, take a few photos. Your insurance company will want them.
- Then call us at (530) 999-7156.

Why trees come down in Cameron Park
Most of it is wind. A storm pushes through and a tree that was fine yesterday drops a limb, or tips. Steady wind of 40 to 50 mph is enough for some damage here and there, says the weather service.
It can get wild, too. On Christmas Eve 2015 a tornado touched down at Folsom Lake. It ran through El Dorado Hills and into Cameron Park. It tore up roofs and fences and knocked trees down on the way. That's rare. Strong winter wind is not.
Our trees are a mix that needs watching. The native trees here are mostly gray pines and oaks, with brush all around. Gray pines often split into a few forks as they get old and turn crooked. A forked, leaning pine next to a house is worth a second look.
Big oaks have a quirk. On still, hot summer afternoons, oaks sometimes just let go of a limb, UC Master Gardeners say. Not a breath of wind. Often it's one of the long, level branches.
Snow is rare, but it hurts. Our town runs roughly 1,200 to 1,450 feet up, under the normal snow line. Even so, a heavy snow drops in about once every few years. Trees here aren't used to the weight, so limbs snap.
And the houses are close. In the 2020 census, 94.5% of people here lived in the urban part of town. On a tight lot, a falling tree has few places to land that aren't a roof, a fence or a car.
What it usually costs
Nobody likes a surprise bill. Below are published cost-guide ranges, not quotes. The tree company names an actual figure before anyone picks up a saw.
| Kind of job | Cost guide range |
|---|---|
| Emergency removal (national) | $450 to $5,000 |
| Emergency job, Sacramento area typical charge | $1,084 |
| Average removal, Sacramento area | $723 (most from $270 to $1,166) |
| Tree that's already down, open ground | $75 to $150 |
| Tree pulled out by the roots | $300 to $500 |
| Removal that needs a crane | $1,500 to $2,500 |
| Grinding the stump later | $100 to $500 each |

Rush jobs can cost extra. Thumbtack says some companies add an emergency fee, sometimes as high as $250 an hour. Just ask about it on the phone.
Check your insurance, too. Consumer Reports says that when a tree damages your house, insurers commonly cover $500 or $1,000 of the removal. They may pay for house repairs as well. If the tree hit nothing, there's usually no claim.

A quick yard walk before winter
Ten minutes now can save a mess in January. Walk around and look up. The tree care group ISA lists warning signs like these.
- Big dead branches, or a broken one hung up in the tree.
- Cracks or splits in the trunk.
- A trunk that splits into two, called a split trunk. Those are often where trees fail.
- Cracked or lifted dirt at the base, mostly if the tree leans.
- Mushrooms or other fungus growing on the trunk or roots.
Notice any of these? Give us a call and a tree company can come judge it. Ahead of big wind, the weather service also says to cut back limbs near the house and the lines.
If your street has CC&Rs
Lots of Cameron Park homes are under CC&Rs, and that matters for trees. The Cameron Park CSD's review form lists tree removal as work that needs approval. Its 2026 fee for taking out an oak is $103. Oaks are protected in the county and need an arborist's report.
The form also says fees double if work starts before approval. So after a storm, call the CSD at (530) 677-2231 and ask what they need from you.

Quick answers
Do you come out to my street in Cameron Park?
We don't come out ourselves. We find a local tree company that does. If you're in Cameron Park or a nearby town, call and tell us where you are.
Is it an emergency?
If a tree is on a wire, on someone, or blocking help from reaching you, call 911 first. If it's on the roof or the car, call us next.
Is there a fee for calling?
None. Not for the call, and not for the matchmaking.
Who pays when the neighbor's tree hits my house?
Usually your own insurance. Consumer Reports says to file with your own insurer, even if the tree grew next door.
