Tree Service in Stateline, NV for Homes and Businesses at the State Line
Careful tree work for the busy blocks and quiet residential streets right where California meets Nevada.
Armstrong Tree Service brings arborist-led tree care to Stateline homes, rentals and commercial lots.
Tree Care Where Two States Meet
Stateline sits on US 50 right at the California line, and it is one of the few places in the basin where a towering Jeffrey pine can shade a parking lot on one side of a fence and a family cabin on the other. Commercial properties, condominiums, vacation rentals and full-time homes all sit close together here, which means a single tree often affects several neighbors, a walkway full of visitors, or a busy entrance.
A removal next to a storefront needs a plan for foot traffic and parking. A pine leaning over a rental needs attention before the next guests arrive. A homeowner a few streets back from the highway may just want the big tree by the deck checked before winter.
Owner Zach Armstrong is an ISA Certified Arborist and a member of the International Society of Arboriculture. He looks at each job for what it is, not as one more tree to cut. Our crew is based just across the line in South Lake Tahoe and is licensed to work on the Nevada side, so Stateline is close to home for us.

What Shapes Tree Work in Stateline
Stateline's trees grow in the same basin forest as the rest of the South Shore, but the setting around them is busier than most. These are the factors we plan around on a typical job here:
- Large Jeffrey pines and white firs growing close to buildings, parking areas and shared walkways
- Steady traffic and visitors, which can call for a work zone and timing that keeps people safely clear
- Heavy winter snow that bends and breaks limbs over roofs, decks and entrances
- Bark beetle pressure on stressed pines, especially trees squeezed by pavement and compacted soil
- Wildfire risk that makes needle cleanup and defensible space part of routine upkeep
- TRPA oversight of tree removal throughout the basin, on the Nevada side as well as the California side

Stateline Tree Service FAQs
Do you work on commercial properties in Stateline?
Yes. We work on homes, rentals and commercial lots alike. For a busy property, we plan the timing and the work area so customers, guests and staff stay safely clear while the tree work is done. We can also talk through the best day and time to keep disruption low.
Does tree removal in Stateline need a permit?
Tree removal throughout the Lake Tahoe Basin, including the Nevada side, is regulated by the Tahoe Regional Planning Agency. Whether your tree needs a permit depends on the tree and the site, and we talk through it with you during the estimate.
Can you handle a tree that fell during the night?
Yes. Our emergency tree service runs 24/7. If a tree is on a structure, a vehicle or a power line, keep everyone well away from it, call the utility for any line involved, and then call us. We will help make the scene safe and clear the tree.
What are your regular hours?
We are open daily from 7:00 AM to 7:00 PM for estimates and scheduled work. Emergency service is available around the clock, so a tree that comes down at night or on a weekend still gets a response. Call us at (530) 545-3504 to set up a time.
