How do you protect my lawn and landscaping from heavy equipment?

Our crews use specialized ground protection mats and high-reach cranes to lift heavy wood sections directly over obstacles, minimizing impact on your turf. This prevents soil compaction and "rutting" often caused by traditional dragging or heavy machinery.

Can I keep the wood from a tree removal for my own use?

Absolutely. If you would like to keep the wood for firewood, just let our team know during your estimate. We can cut the logs into manageable lengths and stack them in a designated area on your property rather than hauling them away.

How do you handle trees that are close to power lines or my home?

Our ISA-certified arborists are trained in technical rigging and precision felling to navigate "tight quarters" and overhead hazards safely. We coordinate with local utility companies as needed and use specialized bucket trucks or climbers to dismantle the tree piece by piece, ensuring your property remains protected throughout the process.

What is the benefit of your "Integrated Pest Management" approach for my landscape?

Unlike broad-spectrum treatments, our IPM approach focuses on identifying specific pests or diseases and using targeted, environmentally-conscious solutions. This ensures we protect the health of your trees while minimizing the impact on beneficial insects and the local ecosystem.

A flawless performance from estimate to completion of work. Attention to every detail. Extremely professional. The team worked together like a well oiled machine. The final shaping of the trimmed trees beyond what I expected. Not a scrap or spec of sawdust left behind. I would highly recommend that anyone with tree service needs to contact Bratt.

Nathan and the team did a truly marvelous job with a big yard project - two dead trees, trimming a very large tree, and removing over a dozen volunteer trees. I am so pleased with the work done today and highly recommend them for quality, quick and friendly customer service, and a fair price. Thank you!

Arrived on time, were quick and efficient in cutting down the tree, and left the place in good condition afterwards.

Robert Raub

This is a great company! They require a $600 minimum job, so they might not be a good fit if you’re looking for a smaller project. It cost $300 for a fairly large tree trimming over my roof, and $300 total to cut down 3 trees which were about 4-5 inches thick. The stump removal costs $150 per stump which I opted out of since the trees were small. They cut them very close to the ground, only a couple inches remaining, which was nice. Patrick provided a thorough free estimate and didn’t try to upsell me on anything- I very much appreciated his honesty since I was on a budget. Francisco & Andrew did an excellent and efficient job of taking down my 3 trees and trimming another tree. It was exactly what I wanted and I’m super happy with the results.
