Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need a permit to remove a tree?

Permit requirements for tree removal vary by municipality, and in many Mid-Missouri communities, certain trees, particularly large ones near public rights-of-way or protected species, may require approval before removal. Thurmond’s Lawn & Tree Service recommends checking with your local city or county office before work begins, and our team is happy to help guide you through that process. When you request a free estimate, we can discuss any local considerations specific to your property.

How do I know if a tree should be removed?

Several conditions typically indicate that removal is the safest course of action, including a dead or dying tree, significant storm damage, disease or pest infestation that has spread through the trunk or canopy, or positioning that threatens a foundation, driveway or utility line. A professional evaluation is the most reliable way to make that determination, since some trees that appear hazardous can be preserved with the right care. Thurmond’s offers on-site assessments to help homeowners and businesses throughout Mid-Missouri make an informed decision.

What are signs a tree is unsafe?

Common warning signs include large dead branches, a leaning trunk, visible decay or hollow sections, cracks in the bark, roots lifting near structures and signs of fungal growth at the base. Storm-damaged trees with split limbs or exposed wood are also a concern, particularly when located near a home, power line or high-traffic area. If you notice any of these conditions, it is worth having a trained professional take a look before the situation becomes an emergency.

Do you handle storm damage or emergency tree removals?

Thurmond’s Lawn & Tree Service provides 24-hour emergency service for storm-damaged trees and urgent removal situations. Storm damage can leave trees structurally compromised and at immediate risk of falling, making a fast, professional response critical to protecting your property. You can reach our team at (573) 999-1747 any time an emergency arises.

Will you clean up the debris after the job?

Cleanup is a standard part of every tree removal with Thurmond’s. Our crew removes all debris from the work area and aims to leave your yard in better condition than when we arrived. Complete stump removal is also available, using advanced grinding equipment to eliminate the stump and root system without disturbing surrounding turf, nearby trees, or your foundation.
