Tree Service in New Orleans, LA With Local Expertise That Counts
New Orleans is unlike anywhere else in the country, and so are its trees. Our subtropical climate brings intense heat, heavy rainfall, coastal humidity, and the annual threat of hurricane-force winds. That combination puts unique stress on your trees and demands local expertise.
Benton Tree Service has spent 19 years caring for the trees that define this city: the sprawling live oaks along Napoleon Avenue and St. Charles, the towering water oaks throughout Lakeview and Gentilly, the crape myrtles across Mid-City and the Marigny, and the pine canopies along the lake. We understand clay-heavy soils, storm surge root saturation, and how to identify a structurally compromised tree before it becomes a crisis.
Whether you are dealing with storm damage, a live oak lifting your sidewalk, or overgrown canopy before hurricane season, our crew arrives prepared. We come with the right equipment, right training, and 19 years of local experience.
Every estimate is free. Every job leaves your property cleaner than we found it.
