Expert Tree Removal
While we do everything possible to ensure the survival of each tree, unfortunately this is not always the best or possible option. Many factors influence whether the tree just needs to be trimmed back vs. completely removed. In these circumstances if our recommendation is to remove the tree, we will safely and efficiently remove the tree in a way that ensures minimal to no damage to surrounding landscape and structures.
Considerations for tree removal include:
-
Potential damage to life and property in the general vicinity of the tree
-
Anticipated and/or coordinated site plans in proximity which do not intend to protect, mitigate, or preserve the tree or trees
-
Tree(s) currently dying, dead, sick, or presenting with disease
-
Culling, which is the purposeful removal of one or more trees to promote the growth and health of the remaining trees in the surrounding area, is often recommended when the adjacent trees are healthy, and the customer would like to preserve the health of adjacent trees
-
Removal of the tree will refine and enhance the general aesthetic of the residence or property
Superior Tree Trimming and Pruning
As with all living things, it is essential to provide your trees with regular maintenance and care to ensure proper growth, safety, and the overall appearance.
Trimming and Pruning Services are indicated to:
-
Prevent the outbreak and spread of disease
-
Reduce the static load-bearing force on the tree(s), thereby lowering the risk of limb breakage, which is more likely to occur under increased stress
-
Remove dead and/or dying limbs and branches in order to maintain the overall health of the tree
-
Manage and maintain healthy weight distribution throughout the tree
-
Crown or canopy reduction, enhancing the tree’s overall aesthetic
Note: We do not recommend reducing more than 25% of a tree’s canopy.
Stump Grinding
Stump grinding is often indicated following the removal of a tree for appearance as well as safety purposes which include:
​
​
-
To remove the tree’s root system, preventing regrowth, reducing potential hazards such as tripping over the stump, and improve the overall appearance of the property.
-
However, stump grinding is not always recommended due to surrounding underground utilities, and the depth of grinding may be limited by neighboring root systems.
-
We suggest the stump be ground about 6-9 inches below grade (ground level)
