Tree Removal
Tree Wizard removes dead, hazardous, storm-damaged, and unwanted trees throughout Columbia and Central Missouri. Every job is assessed by ISA Certified Arborist Chris Haubner before work begins, and we're crane-capable for large or hard-to-access removals that other companies have to subcontract out. Most residential removals run $1,000–$3,000, with a free written estimate before anything starts.
Tree Trimming & Pruning
Tree Wizard provides structural, maintenance, clearance, and risk-reduction pruning for residential and commercial properties in Columbia and the surrounding area. Pruning decisions are based on tree health and structure, not just cutting back growth — the goal is a healthier tree, not just a tidier one.
Emergency Tree Service
24/7 emergency tree service in Columbia, MO When a tree comes down on a house, blocks a driveway, or gets damaged in a storm, Tree Wizard responds 24/7 with crane-capable equipment for technical removals. For insurance-related tree loss, we document the job with photos, a detailed invoice, and a job summary to support the claims process.
Landscape Design
Our landscape work covers the full process, beginning with site clearing and continuing through planting and finishing details. We remove overgrown vegetation and stumps, address drainage with French drains, install retaining walls where needed, and prepare beds with appropriate mulch and edging. Plant selection considers soil, sunlight, and long-term goals, while every project receives a free on-site estimate.
Emerald Ash Borer Treatment
We assess ash trees for Emerald Ash Borer infestation and provide treatment when the tree can still benefit. Early action is essential because advanced infestation may leave removal as the only viable option. Our ISA Certified Arborist considers canopy condition, tree health, size, site factors, and infestation stage when selecting the proper treatment approach.
Storm Damage Tree Cleanup
We provide storm damage tree cleanup for fallen trees, broken limbs, and storm debris. Our team cuts, sections, removes, and hauls away damaged trees while protecting surrounding property. We also evaluate remaining trees for hidden structural hazards and provide documentation and photo evidence for insurance claims when needed.
Tree Planting
We help homeowners select tree species suited to Missouris climate and each planting site. Our team focuses on proper planting depth, site conditions, and long-term growth. We also explain essential aftercare, including watering, mulching, and staking when appropriate. Our goal is to give each tree the right foundation for healthy establishment and lasting performance.
Land Clearing
Land clearing from our crew includes removing trees within the clearing area, clearing brush, grinding stumps, and addressing resulting debris. We work on construction lots, fence-line and property borders, overgrown pastures, and larger cleanup projects. The required equipment is determined by project size, access, ground conditions, and the intended use of the cleared property.

My husband and I used Tree Wizard two times this year to remove large Ash Trees and for stump removal. On both occasions their team arrived promptly, took care of business, cleaned up the mess as discuss, and provided the best price around. We were extremely impressed and will use them in the future for any tree removal needs.

Amazing service. Got a quote on Friday and they were out the next Monday. Very professional and considerate of the surrounding area. They made it seem like there was never a tree to begin with!!! I would recommend anyone in the area to consider the Tree Wizard to be their first choice. They will not disappoint.

Tree Wizard, Inc. helped us plant several new trees in our backyard, and the entire experience was great. They guided us on the best species for our soil and sun exposure, and made sure each tree was planted properly for long-term growth. The team was friendly, knowledgeable, and took real care in their work. The yard already feels more alivecant wait to see the trees flourish over time!

Since I own multiple properties, I often have to employ a tree service as general property maintenance. Tree Wizard is my go to company. Chris and his team are always responsive, and get the job done quickly at a fair price.

The Tree Wizard crew took our case seriously and handled it diligently. They offered useful analysis in their assessment of the damage of a fallen tree, and helped us move on to handle the rest of the emergency situation.

We had a portion of a very large tree fall on our roof. We contacted Tree Wizard and they came out after hours and removed what had fallen on our roof immediately, saving us from any damage to our roof. They came a few days later to walk the yard with us, to talk about what tree limbs needed to be removed. Then they were out 2 days later to trim out dead limbs from our large tree in front and from a tree in the back and also took care of a number of tree stumps that needed to be ground down. The guys who took care of our trees were all very kind, knowledgeable and professional and the cost was very reasonable!! We couldn't ask for more!! Tree Wizard has a new customer in us!!

Tree Wizard was sent by our insurance company to remove a good sized tree that fell on our roof during a thunderstorm. They arrived quickly to evaluate & prioritize the job among many others, and a crew was dispatched later the same day. They quickly got to work and safely got the tree cut up and off the roof, piled up the brushy ends, & moved on to their next job. 2 days later (sooner than expected) they returned to chip up the brushy bits. They were very professional, clear with communication, and obviously very skilled. It was really fun to watch them work! Highly recommended, and we will use them again for our tree needs.

The Tree Wizard crew were GREAT! The did an excellent job, both trimming a tree in front, and removing a tree in back. They sought my input so I would be happy with the job. They have a good sense of the natural shape of a tree, and bear that in mind when trimming. The cleanup was spotless. They are the best, can't say enough good about them. And their prices are extremely fair. I will call them only for any tree work I need done.

The thunderstorm-heavy summer of 2021 has been rough on our trees, and we'd developed quite the hefty pile of broken limbs, plus some of our trees were looking rough. Tree Wizard's arborist was timely and responsive, and he listened closely to what we needed to provide a very clear scope of work quote. The guys who came out to perform the job were polite and friendly; would recommend!

I've needed a tree pruned back for almost a year. Called other places and was given very long wait times or forgotten about. Called tree wizard, and they were our to evaluate our within 24 hours, and told me it would be about a week to get someone out. Right on time, they had a crew out and the trees trimmed safely and look good. Even cleaned up the downed branches in the yard. Very happy with the service.

Tree Wizard is a very committed company dedicated to providing the most Kind, Safe, Responsible and Caring group of people to help with services. Excellent clean up.

Really appreciated the friendly and professional service I received. Will definitely be using you guys again in the future for all my tree trimming needs!

A tree fell down in my yard on a Sunday night, so I called Tree Wizard first thing on Monday to see if they could take care of it. They showed up in no time, took care of the tree for a good price, and cleaned up every twig that was left behind. I'd definitely recommend their services!

Tree Wizard has proven to me that they will absolutely stand by their work.
There was a slight misunderstanding which was resolved immediately to my complete satisfaction.
They have been taking care of my trees for years and I hope for many more.

We highly recommended this company. They are clear on letting you know what the result will be but also will let you know whats happening during the process. They clearly take pride in their work, are curtious and clean up when done.

Tree Wizard did a great job taking care of a hazardous dead full-grown maple tree with limbs branching out over our house, the street, and the neighbor's yard. Courteous professional service from the estimate phase, the work phase, and the clean-up phase of the job.
