Arborist Services in Charlotte
Family-Owned Tree Care for Charlotte Since 2012. Same Team, Same Standards.
Tree Masters has served residential, commercial, and municipal clients across Charlotte and the South Charlotte region since 2012. We’re family-owned and operated, which means every job carries direct owner accountability. Our management team built this business under its previous name, Airborne Tree Services, and carried the same standards forward when the name changed. Owner Chris Mehalic has been quoted in TCI Magazine, the official publication of the Tree Care Industry Association, on equipment and business operations. That kind of industry engagement reflects how seriously we take the craft.
We offer free quotes with no obligation, same-day appointments, and 24/7 emergency response for situations that can’t wait.

What Sets Tree Masters Apart in Charlotte
We approach every property with an environmentally friendly, animal-conscious mindset. That’s not marketing language. It shapes how we plan cuts, how we handle debris, and how we work around nesting wildlife and root systems. Our services are 100% guaranteed, reflecting our stated commitment to service. If budget is a concern, we offer affordable financing options so that professional arborist care isn’t out of reach.
We work with homeowners, property managers, and municipal clients alike, and we treat every site as if it were our own. That consistency is what keeps clients coming back and referring their neighbors.
Arborist Services We Provide Throughout Charlotte
Professional arborist work goes beyond cutting trees down. It applies knowledge of tree biology, structural integrity, and long-term health to every decision made on your property. Here’s what we handle:

- Tree Trimming and Pruning: Shaping for health, clearance, and appearance without compromising structural integrity

- Land and Site Clearing: Residential and commercial site preparation
We serve Charlotte, Ballantyne, Weddington, Waxhaw, and the surrounding South Charlotte area.
Why Charlotte Properties Demand Qualified Tree Care
Charlotte’s warm, humid climate keeps trees under stress year-round. Pest activity, fungal disease, and soil compaction from urban growth are constant factors in residential neighborhoods and commercial corridors alike. We’ve been working in this region since 2012, and that time on the ground has built real familiarity with the area’s tree species, seasonal patterns, and soil conditions that affect tree health across the city.
Late winter to early spring is the recommended pruning window for most trees here. Dormant-season pruning reduces stress and lowers the risk of disease entering fresh cuts. Storm events add another layer of urgency. When a tree comes down or a major limb fails, having a qualified arborist available at any hour isn’t a luxury.
What a Qualified Arborist Actually Does
The difference between an arborist and a general tree service comes down to training. An arborist is trained in tree biology, structural integrity, and long-term plant health, not only in cutting and removal techniques. That training means every recommendation is grounded in what’s actually happening inside the tree, not just what’s visible from the ground.
ISA certification, awarded through the International Society of Arboriculture, is the recognized professional credential in arboriculture. It requires demonstrated knowledge of tree biology, care techniques, and industry safety standards. Arborist-led care applies that knowledge to species-specific growth patterns, disease susceptibility, and soil conditions to determine the safest and most effective course of action. Tree risk assessment, a structured evaluation of structural defects, disease, and hazard potential, identifies problems before they escalate into property damage or safety incidents.

"Great job!"Tree Masters is first class. I recently had them out to price removing some trees from my property. Michelle was very helpful and knowledgeable helping get everything arranged. Their pricing was so competitive that I was able to get all the trees removed for a fraction of what I expected to pay. Their crew is professional and did a fantastic job both with the tree removal and cleanup after the job. They showed up when they were scheduled and worked quickly and efficiently. Such a refreshing change to other local companies I've had come out and estimate a job and then never return to do the work. For my future tree related work I can't imagine calling anyone else.- Greg Mart
