How do you determine if my tree is a candidate for cabling and bracing versus removal?

Our ISA-certified arborists assess the tree's structural integrity, specifically looking for "V-shaped" unions or cracks where the tree may be splitting. If the root system and main trunk are healthy, we can often install high-strength cables to stabilize the canopy and extend the tree's life for many years, avoiding the need for a full removal.

What is included in your post-removal cleanup process?

We pride ourselves on leaving your property cleaner than we found it by chipping all brush, hauling away large wood, and raking the work area to remove smaller debris. We also offer stump grinding as an additional service to ensure the remaining site is leveled and ready for new landscaping or grass seed.

How does "Integrated Pest Management" benefit my trees compared to standard spraying?

Instead of applying blanket chemical treatments, our IPM approach uses targeted monitoring to identify specific pests, such as Emerald Ash Borer, and diseases, such as Oak Wilt. This allows us to use more precise, environmentally conscious treatments that effectively protect your trees while minimizing the impact on beneficial insects and the surrounding ecosystem.

Can you safely remove a tree that is growing extremely close to my home or power lines?

Yes, our crews are experts in "tight-quarter" removals and use specialized rigging and aerial lifts to dismantle trees piece by piece. We coordinate with local utility companies when working near power lines and use precision lowering techniques to ensure that no debris comes into contact with your structures or delicate landscaping.

We were very impressed with Bratt Tree. From David’s initial sales visit to Andrew’s service at our house they were honest, professional, and transparent. Andrew and his crew did an exceptional job of cleaning out some very tall walnut trees and left no trace once they were done.

Working with Bratt has been a pleasure. Jacob, who came to do the initial estimate, was very friendly and knowledgeable and gave me a range of options for several of the trees in our yard. All communication was clear and pleasant as far as setting up service and letting me know when the team would arrive. The team of 3 arborists were professional and did an excellent job, with special attention to requests I’d made. It was fun to watch them work, they really know what they’re doing! They were thorough in cleaning up and I’m super happy with the end result. I highly recommend this company and will use their service again when our trees need TLC. :)
