Kenneth and his crew did a fantastic job trimming our giant pine trees here in Helendale. They arrived on time, were very courteous and conscientious. They left yard in better shape then when they arrived. We had a few large trees that needed trimming and we are so glad that Performance Tree service could take care of it. Extremely fair pricing and value, we strongly recommend them.

Expert Tree Trimming in Lancaster, CA
Tree trimming in Lancaster, California means more than keeping trees looking neat. The Antelope Valley brings hot summers, extreme drought, and high-wind events with gusts that can reach 50 to 60 mph. Those conditions put overgrown, poorly shaped trees at real risk of branch failure or property damage. At Performance Tree Service, we assess each tree's structure before any cut is made. We remove dead and crossing branches, thin dense canopies to let wind pass through rather than push against the tree, and shape growth away from rooflines, fences, and power lines. Lancaster properties on private land generally do not need a permit for routine tree trimming, though Joshua trees carry state-level protections and are handled separately. Whether you have a single shade tree in your backyard or a row of trees along your driveway, we leave your property clean and your trees structurally sound. Call Performance Tree Service to schedule a trim.
