Your Trees, Our Specialty

Home is where the heart is, and the trees around it are part of what makes a property feel like home. Let dead branches, leaning trunks, or storm damage start threatening your peace of mind and the place stops feeling that way pretty quickly. That is where we come in.

H&H Tree Service offers professional tree removal, stump grinding, emergency response, land clearing, brush hogging, lot clearing, and shrub work across Ledyard, Gales Ferry, Mystic, Stonington, Waterford, and the surrounding communities. Whether you need a single hazardous tree removed before the next nor’easter, or you have a wooded lot that needs full clearing for new construction, we have spent 30 years doing exactly this work in this part of Connecticut.

And we do not cut corners. Not on the work, not on the cleanup, not on the customer.

Why Southeastern Connecticut Calls H&H

Decades Of Experience In Southeastern Connecticut

30 years working trees in Ledyard, Stonington, Mystic, and the surrounding communities is not the same as 30 years anywhere else. We know how nor'easters load wet snow that breaks branches in February. We know how Connecticut's heavy clay soils affect root stability after a wet spring. We know which neighborhoods still have dead ash standing that needs to come down before it falls on its own. That kind of local knowledge does not transfer from somewhere else.

Crane-Assisted And Hazardous Tree Removal

Two tree lifts in the fleet means we have crane capability ready on every job that needs it. For trees over structures, trees too compromised to climb safely, or removals where conventional rigging is not the right call, this is the technique that protects your property and gets the work done right. Hazardous tree removal is some of the most demanding work in the industry, and it is exactly the kind of work our crew has been doing for three decades.

Our Crew Has Extensive Emergency Removal Experience

When a storm puts a tree on your house at 2 AM, you do not want a crew that is figuring it out as they go. Our team has handled emergency removals across southeastern Connecticut for 30 years, through nor'easters, summer thunderstorms, ice events, and the occasional remnant tropical system. We have the equipment ready, we have the experience, and we move with the kind of urgency these situations actually require.

On-Time Guarantee

When we book a job, we show up when we said we would. If something changes the schedule, you hear from us in advance, not when our truck does not pull up at the agreed time.

Clear, Transparent And Prompt Communication

Calls answered. Texts returned. Questions answered without the talk-down or the sales pressure. You will know what is happening at every stage of the job, from the first call through the final walkthrough.

Meticulous Attention To Detail

We treat your yard like our own. That means we do not just complete the work, we complete the work with the level of care we would want on our own property. Driveways protected. Landscaping respected. Cleanup that you should not have to follow up on.

High-Quality Yard Cleanup

Tree work generates debris. A lot of it. Most of what goes into a high-quality cleanup happens during the job, not at the end of it. Brush goes through the chipper as we work. Larger wood gets staged where the loader can grab it. The crew rakes the area and blows the driveway clean before final walkthrough. When we drive away, you should be able to walk outside and see the work that was done, not the cleanup that was rushed.

We Respect Your Time

We work quickly and efficiently because we know your day does not stop for our schedule. We arrive on time, get the work done, clean up properly, and clear out. Without rushing the work itself or cutting corners on cleanup.

Respectful Of Your Property

Tree work is heavy work, but it does not have to leave a mark on the property that hosted it. We plan equipment routes, lay down mats where heavy gear has to cross turf, and protect everything within range of where the work is happening. Your landscaping is not collateral damage. Neither is your driveway.

1000s Of Satisfied Clients And Counting

30 years, thousands of customers across southeastern Connecticut, and a steady flow of new work coming from people who knew somebody we worked with last year. The reviews speak for themselves. The customers do too.

Rich Hines and his crew did an amazing job cutting down 4 trees including a hairy willow monster that regrew from a stump. Very impressed all work was complete in 1 day including cleanup. Rich even worked into darkness to finish grinding the stumps. I will have him back in the Spring!

Great job at huge tree removal job. Safely and cleanly removed 12+ dead ash trees. Later, I also had them install stone driveway shoring bricks to replace the rotting wood ones that were there when we moved in. They also do my snow removal and annual fall leaf cleanup.

Frequently Asked Questions

We are on call 24/7. For genuine emergencies, trees on houses or blocking access, we aim to be on-site as quickly as possible, usually within hours during normal conditions. After major storm events, response times depend on call volume, but we prioritize life-safety calls first.

Yes. Fully licensed and insured with general liability and workers' compensation coverage. A current certificate of insurance is available from our carrier on request before any job starts. Any reputable tree service will provide this without hesitation. Walk away from anyone who resists.

Often yes, when a tree damages a covered structure like a house, garage, or fence. We provide written damage assessments, photo documentation, and itemized estimates for the claim, and bill the carrier directly where the policy supports it. Coverage for trees that fall in the yard without hitting anything is usually limited.

For most private residential property in southeastern Connecticut, no. Within certain municipalities, particularly for trees within wetland buffer areas or for larger commercial parcels, permits may be required. We flag anything that applies during the estimate.

Licensed and insured tree services carry significant overhead that uninsured operators do not. The difference often shows up in the price. It also shows up in the outcome if something goes wrong. An uninsured worker hurt on your property can become your financial liability. A botched removal can damage your house in ways that take months and tens of thousands to repair. We are not always the cheapest option in southeastern Connecticut. We are the option that gets the job done right and stands behind the work.

Most likely yes, and the tree needs an evaluation immediately. A sudden lean, especially with exposed roots or heaving soil on the opposite side, means the root system is failing in real time. Call us. We dispatch 24/7 for these situations.

Yes. Every job includes complete cleanup. Brush goes through the chipper, larger wood is hauled off or cut and stacked for firewood if you want it, and the work area is raked and blown clean before we leave. We treat your yard like our own.
