In Placitas, Legacy Tree Service delivers arborist-led tree care built for the high desert, with ISA Certified consultations, precision trimming, and smart, safety-first removals when a tree has outgrown its space or become a risk.
Our trimming is more than a quick cut, we shape for stronger structure, healthier growth, and fewer problem limbs, while improving sightlines, clearance, and defensible space around homes and driveways.
Need the job finished end to end, we handle stump grinding and removal, fire mitigation planning, and careful relocations or transplants when a tree can be saved, always with eco-conscious practices, professional equipment, and clean results that respect your property.






Placitas is a picturesque, laid-back town outside of Albuquerque with easy access to the city of Albuquerque for work and leisure. There’s lots of hiking nearby, including at Tunnel Spring Trailhead. The Piedra Lisa North Trailhead is another popular one, although make sure to bring plenty of water as there isn’t much relief from the sun! The historic mission, San Antonio Catholic Mission, is in the center of the city and is a must-see piece of architecture. And it’s always great to visit the Coronado Historic Sites, which explain about the lives of the Tiwa natives. Plactias Pizza Co. is one of our favorite places to get food in Placitas, with its elaborate pizzas that feed the whole family!
