Safe, professional tree care in Weed, CA from a local team with first-responder roots. We handle removals, trimming, and defensible space work with clear advice and free estimates.
— Our Top Services
We know Weed is a mountain town where trees are part of the beauty of the property—and part of the risk too. Between heavy winter weather, dry summer conditions, and wildfire concerns around Siskiyou County, trees here need the right care. At Black Butte Tree Service, we help homeowners and landowners in Weed protect their homes, improve tree health, and keep their properties safe and usable year-round.
Our work is shaped by real emergency-service experience. As a company owned and operated by a former wildland firefighter, structural firefighter, and paramedic, we bring a safety-first mindset to every job. That means careful planning, clear communication, and professional tree work that protects your home, vehicles, fencing, power lines, and surrounding landscape.
In Weed, tree service is about more than looks. Overgrown limbs, storm-damaged trees, deadwood, and dense vegetation can all create problems fast. We provide practical solutions based on what your property actually needs—not upsells, not shortcuts.
We understand the local conditions and the real concerns that come with owning property in this area. Many customers call us because they are dealing with one of these issues:
We take the time to walk the site, explain what we see, and give clear recommendations. Because of our background working alongside Cal Fire inspectors and our understanding of defensible space requirements, we can help you make smart decisions that improve safety without doing unnecessary work.
When you hire us, you are getting more than a crew with chainsaws. You are hiring a company that takes risk seriously. Our first-responder background shows in how we operate: we assess hazards, plan the work carefully, and stay focused on doing the job right the first time. That matters when large trees are near structures, access is tight, or the work needs extra attention to detail.
We also believe customers deserve straightforward service. We show up, communicate clearly, and treat your property with respect. Whether you need one hazardous tree removed or full vegetation management on a larger parcel, we bring the same level of care and accountability.
We proudly serve property owners throughout Weed, including neighborhoods and surrounding areas near Lake Shastina, Edgewood, Carrick, and the greater South Siskiyou region. If you are in or around Weed, there is a good chance we can help. From residential lots to larger rural properties, we provide dependable tree service designed for local conditions.
If you need tree removal, tree trimming, pruning, hazardous tree assessment, or defensible space work in Weed, CA, give us a call. We offer free estimates and on-site property visits, and we will give you honest advice based on safety, tree health, and your goals for the property.

"Awesome experience with black butte! Very professional, timely, and fair. Can tell Jack wants the best for our property and our trees!"
"Great guys, really respectful, they do a very good job and are professional. 10/10 recommend"
"Very very helpful and informative. Couldn't recommend these guys more!"
"Jack and his helper/line wrangler showed up on time, we discussed the plan for the day, and they went to work. I really liked that they had "Bluetooth" communications in their safety helmets. No brances falling on someone else, etc. All their equipment was newer looking and they had everything they needed. They cleaned up the brush/small branches and put them on my burn pile. In short, they were professional in all aspects of the job. Glad to give a 5 star review."
"Black Butte Tree Service Jack McGuire safely and professionally cut down and removed very tall scary, dead trees on our property. We were worried that the trees would fall on our home or fall on our neighbors home. The price was very reasonable and it was very entertaining for our family to watch what they were doing. They cleaned up all the mess, stacked the logs and made everything look nice. We are a grateful family. Keith and Virginia Bradley."
"Had some needed tree work done. Scheduled an appointment, they were punctual, excellent communication and professional. Pleased with their service and will definitely use again in the future!! Highly recommend for any tree removal. Thanks for the prompt service Jack!"
"Black Butte Tree service is fantastic--they just finished up a big job of tree removal and trimming on my property and I can't be more happy. Jack is very professional and quick to respond, as well as very honest and kind. Great prices too. They worked hard in the rain, and did a great job cleaning up too. Definitely will be my go-to business for tree service. Thanks Jack!"
"Jack and his team are awesome! Great communication, very professional and affordable. Black Butte Tree Service is the best."
"I recently had the pleasure of using Black Butte Tree Service, and I couldn’t be happier with the outcome. Jack was professional, prompt, and truly knew his craft. He safely removed two large, dead pine trees from my front yard with precision and care, leaving everything clean and intact. He was friendly, respectful of my property, and did an amazing job. I highly recommend him for any tree work. You won’t be disappointed."
"Great communication. Local business would 100% use again. Great and fair pricing."
"We had 4 mature cedar trees and one mature oak tree just inside the property line. The trunk of one of the cedars was compromised when a huge branch broke off due to high winds, landing on the neighbor's shed. Although no damage was done, the writing was one the wall that this could happen again but with property damage. I sent an email to Black Butte Tree Service on December 29, 2025. Jack responded quickly and was able to come out that day. We got a reasonable estimate to remove the 5 trees and one other cedar and requested the work. One week later (January 5, 2026) Jack and a helper came out and in the rain and later snow, began the removal process. By Friday all the trees were down. Jack took precautions to protect our lawn by laying down plywood and for that I'm grateful. He also contacted the neighbor seeking permission to go onto their property to pick up tree limbs and clean their property. Jack is friendly, professional and really strives to do tree work as safely as possible. He comes highly recommended from me and I urge you to give him a call or email if you need tree service. I'm glad I did and now I can sleep well during windstorms."
"A large oak needed to come down. Black Butte did a great job and left the area clean. Satisfied..."
"Jack's prices may be at the lower end of the scale, but his service is top-notch. Jack felled several trees close to our house for fire mitigation. His experience as a firefighter is helpful in assessing a job, and his chainsaw work is excellent. We found Jack personable, flexible in his approach, and generally very easy to work with. Highly recommended."
"Black Butte Tree Service provided great service! I had two trees removed that were close to my house and required climbing. James, the owner was on time for both the estimate and removal. He was respectful, knowledgeable and compassionate. The work was done within my timeframe according to the contract. The site was left cleaned and the wood was stacked as requested. I highly recommend this company and I would use them again should the need arise."
"Black Butte Tree Service was great!! Jack was very accommodating, professional, kept in contact thru every step. Cleaned up afterwards, wouldn't hesitate to hire him again!"
"Top notch service!! Unbeatable prices!! I highly recommend!! I needed a 60ft pine cut down, and Black Butte Tree Service made light work of the tall pine, as well as cut the entire tree into rounds at no extra charge. Afterwards he stacked the rounds exactly where i wanted them, and he even scraped cleared any and all debris such as cones, branches, etc into a centered pile at my request so that I may burn when the weather permits. I'm thankful I chose Black Butte Tree Service. The owner Mark is very respectful, extremely professional, highly detail oriented, and has unrivaled customer service. He took the time to listen and thoroughly discuss every detail of the job, which immediately put my mind at ease. He did not rush or cut corners in anyway, he is passionate about what he does and his work reflects that. He did an outstanding job. I completely trust him and his company Black Butte Tree Service, I will personally recommend him and the company to my friends, family, and business partners. I'm looking forward to having some more tree work done in the next few months around spring time. Thank you again"
