Western NC market ranges are $400 to $2,000 per tree for removal and $600 to $4,000 for emergency or storm work, with stump grinding typically $75 to $400 per stump. Where your tree lands depends on its size, what is under it and the ground. Within a mile and a half of Clyde the USDA soil survey maps 58% of the ground at a 15% slope or steeper, and a tree on a slope near a house is rigged down in sections, which takes longer than felling one in a field.
Eroded clay loam on a slope
About a third of the ground near Clyde is Hayesville clay loam that the survey labels eroded, on slopes of 8 to 30 percent. Eroded soil has lost topsoil, and around trees that shows as roots exposed on the downhill side. An Evard and Cowee complex with bedrock about 27 inches down covers another 11% of the area. The median lot is 0.78 acres and 41.8% of lots are an acre or more, so on the gentler lots there can be room to fell a tree away from the house. The nearest NOAA station, 4.4 miles off, averages 50 inches of precipitation a year.
Emergency tree removal in Clyde
A storm can put trees across drives and fences on the hillsides, and high water can leave trees and debris on the flats along the Pigeon River. We clear access first, then whatever is on a building. A tree on a slope is anchored before it is cut so it cannot slide. Call the utility first where a line is involved. We are insured and we document the work for your claim.

|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Hayesville clay loam, 15 to 30 percent slopes, eroded | 20% | 23% | Well drained | no flooding, shallow rock or shallow water on the map | Wall / slope work |
| Hayesville clay loam, 8 to 15 percent slopes, eroded | 12% | 12% | Well drained | no flooding, shallow rock or shallow water on the map | Surface grade |
| Evard-Cowee complex, 15 to 30 percent slopes | 11% | 22% | Well drained | bedrock about 27 in down | Wall / slope work |
| Fannin loam, 30 to 50 percent slopes, eroded | 7% | 40% | Well drained | no flooding, shallow rock or shallow water on the map | Wall / slope work |
| Udorthents-Urban land complex, 2 to 50 percent slopes | 6% | 25.1% | Somewhat excessively drained | no flooding, shallow rock or shallow water on the map | Wall / slope work |
| Evard-Cowee complex, 30 to 50 percent slopes | 5% | 40% | Well drained | bedrock about 27 in down | Wall / slope work |
Across the whole circle: 58% of the ground is mapped at a 15% slope or steeper, 3% as moderately well to very poorly drained soil, and 22% with bedrock within about 40 inches. The town point sits in the USGS watershed unit "Beaverdam Creek-Pigeon River". Nearest NOAA rainfall normal: 50 inches a year (Waynesville 1 E, 4.4 miles off). Pulled 2026-11-09 from USDA-NRCS Soil Data Access, the USGS hydrography datasets and NOAA 1991–2020 normals. A soil map is not a site test: we confirm your Clyde lot on the free site walk.
What tree removal and storm cleanup cost in Clyde, NC
These are typical Western North Carolina market ranges, not a Maidenhair Landscaping quote. North Carolina construction runs about 12% below the national average, but our mountain terrain — 15–40%+ slopes, weathered bedrock and saprolite, clay, and tight access — pushes most jobs toward the high end of every range. A flat infill lot sits low; a steep escarpment lot sits at or above the top. Your exact price comes from a free on-site estimate.
| Item | Typical WNC range | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Tree removal (per tree) | $400–$2,000 | small to large; very large or hazard trees $2,000-$4,000+ |
| Emergency / storm removal | $600–$4,000 | tree on a structure or hazard access; insured |
| Stump grinding | $75–$400/stump | ~$3-$5 per inch of diameter |
What drives it: tree height and diameter, lean and proximity to the house or lines, equipment access on a slope, hazard/emergency conditions, and haul-off vs chip-on-site.
