Sherwood's 1970s and 1980s brick subdivisions sit under tall pines and water oaks that define the neighborhood character, but that same canopy comes with real maintenance and storm risk. When the March 2023 tornado crossed through Pulaski County, our crews were out removing hazard trees and fallen limbs from rooflines and driveways across Sherwood.
Little Rock Tree Service knows Sherwood's terrain, tree species, and the specific challenges homeowners face here in 72120. We handle everything from routine trimming to emergency removal, and we work fast when a storm has left you with a dangerous tree or a limb threatening your home or power lines.
Tree Service in Sherwood (72120)
Sherwood's residential lots are typically half to one acre, with mature pines and water oaks planted decades ago when these subdivisions went in. The terrain slopes gently but can surprise you with steeper grades toward the west and south. Power lines run along most streets and rear lot lines, which means any tree work near those lines requires care and coordination. Homes here are mostly brick ranch and two-story designs from the 1970s forward, with screened porches, carports, and fenced yards that can make tree access tight.
The dominant species we work with in Sherwood are loblolly and shortleaf pine, water oak, post oak, and southern red oak. Sweetgum and hickory fill out the canopy. All of these trees grow tall and healthy here, but pines especially develop heavy lateral branches and can fail at the branch collar or the main stem when ice or wind loads get heavy. We've removed plenty of storm-damaged pines and topped hazardous limbs hanging over Sherwood homes. Our team understands local soil conditions, the seasonal wind patterns that come across the Ouachita foothills, and how to work safely in a neighborhood where lot lines are close and utilities are overhead.

How a Job Works in Sherwood
You call us at (501) 214-7981 or request a free estimate online. One of our crew leads will visit your property, walk the site with you, and give you a clear picture of what needs to happen. We'll look at tree health, structural risk, access for our equipment, power line clearance, and any HOA or permit requirements. That assessment is free, and there's no pressure.
When we're ready to work, we bring the right equipment for your lot size and tree species. In Sherwood's tighter subdivisions, we often use bucket trucks and hand crews instead of heavy equipment, so we can work safely without tearing up your yard or your neighbors'. We'll coordinate with utility companies if lines are close, and we'll handle any city permits if they're required. We chip or haul debris, and we leave your property clean and safe.
On the day we finish, we walk through with you, make sure everything is clear, and answer any questions about what we did or how to care for remaining trees. You get a receipt and a clear record of the work.
Tree removal in Sherwood typically runs from several hundred dollars for a small tree to $2,500 and up for a large pine or oak, depending on height, diameter, access, and how close it is to structures or power lines. Tree trimming and pruning start at $250 for routine work on smaller trees and scale up with tree size and complexity. Stump grinding runs from $150 for small stumps. Emergency tree removal after a storm is priced the same way, but we prioritize those calls and often can get to you the same day or next morning. The best way to know what your specific job will cost is to call us for a free on-site estimate at (501) 214-7981. We'll give you an honest price based on what we see, not a generic quote.
