What Neighbors Say

I want to thank you again for your prompt and very professional response to our tree problem. I was home and was able to see the tree removal process and the clean-up as well. All of you are a real credit to your business. Neither my wife nor I will hesitate to call upon you again. John Walden
Capital Sawmill has done tree work for us at 3 different times. We needed tree and stump removal and extensive trimming on very old, large maples. Steve and his crew did a terrific job. The entire team was very pleasant, the price was fair and the crew cleaned the area of all brush. I would recommend Capital Sawmill very highly. Mary LaFleur
I would like to thank you again for the amazing job you did at our house. We appreciate that you were able to come so quickly — it was comforting to know TRUE professionals were on the job! Thanks again! Billy Lauritsen

Frequently Asked Questions

Do you remove valuable wood in exchange for the lumber?
Unfortunately no. The high cost of vehicles, machinery, labor, insurance, and fuel to cut and process the wood versus the value of the wood itself doesn’t enable us to do that.
Do you carry common building-supply wood like 2x4’s?
We cut larger wood specific for custom needs. Common building-supply wood can and should be purchased cheaper through stores like Home Depot and Lowes due to their mass production of it.
Can you turn MY tree into lumber I keep?
Yes — that’s our specialty. We can take down your tree and mill it on site with our portable band sawmill, or bring it back to our stationary mill in Nassau. You end up with slabs, beams, or a finished piece from a tree you already own. Call us and tell us about the tree.
