Tree Service in Fayetteville, NC
Burks Tree Service brings tree service to Fayetteville, NC and the rest of Cumberland County. From our shop on Rockfish Road, the west side of Fayetteville is a short drive. We handle tree removal, tree trimming, stump grinding, storm cleanup, and lot clearing for homeowners, rental owners, and military families across the city.
We have worked in Fayetteville since 2008. Owners and property managers call us back because the price is fair, the crew shows up when we say, and the yard is clean when we leave.

Fayetteville Trees and Homes
Fayetteville has some of the oldest shade trees in the region. Haymount and the neighborhoods near downtown are full of big water oaks and willow oaks planted decades ago. Many are now past their prime, with dead limbs over roofs and driveways. Trimming those trees on a schedule, and removing the ones with rot at the base, keeps a heavy limb from coming through the roof.
Newer subdivisions out Cliffdale Road, Raeford Road, and toward Jack Britt were built among loblolly pines. Builders often leave a row of tall pines at the back of the lot. Twenty years later, those pines are 70 feet tall and leaning over the fence. We take a lot of them down, in sections when they sit near houses.
Fayetteville also knows storms. Hurricane Matthew in 2016 and Hurricane Florence in 2018 both brought flooding and downed trees across the city. Soaked ground plus wind is what tips pines over, so we get busy after every big tropical system.
Rental houses are a big part of our Fayetteville work. Property managers use us for tree removal between tenants and for clearing overgrown backyards. With Fort Bragg next door, many owners are deployed or out of state, so we send photos when the job is done.

What Customers Say
“I checked over four companies for estimates to remove two trees from a property that my company manages. Choosing Burks Tree Service was the best choice I made. Ms. Dorthy was amazing with her follow-up system and was such a pleasure speaking with her. Her customer service was part of my decision to use this company. Mr. Burks showed up on time which is rare in my business. I was so "AMAZED" at the work that I watched the entire removal of the trees. When Mr. Burks finished the job, not only did he remove the stumps, he removed every branch, cleaned the debris from the lawn and street. The neighbors in the area were so thankful that the trees were gone and the way Mr. Burks leveled the front lawn. My landlord who is in the military, couldn't believe the pictures when he saw the results. Sometimes "THANK YOU" just isn't enough. That's why I took the time to write this review. Burks Tree Service has the best price, customer service, and work ethics. I have recommended Mr. Burks to all my real estate friends. Great Job Mr. Burks.”
“They dropped trees that where close to my home sadly and without causing any damage”
Fayetteville Tree Service Questions
Do you really come to Fayetteville from Raeford?
Yes, all the time. Our shop on Rockfish Road is about 12 miles from downtown Fayetteville, and much closer to west and south Fayetteville. Fayetteville is one of our busiest areas.
Is there an extra charge for Fayetteville jobs?
No. Estimates are free in Fayetteville and across Cumberland County.
I own a rental house in Fayetteville but live out of state. Can you still help?
Yes. Many of our Fayetteville customers are landlords, property managers, or military families who are away. We can do the estimate on site, send photos, and take care of the job without you being there.
Who do I call if a tree is on a power line in Fayetteville?
Call your electric provider first. In the city that is often Fayetteville PWC. Once the line is safe, call us to remove the tree.
Do you trim large oaks in Haymount and older neighborhoods?
Yes. Big old oaks are some of our most common trimming jobs. We remove the dead wood and lift limbs off roofs without topping the tree.
