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.

Sean is a master at what he does. He took down a large apple tree without incident. It hung over a fence into the neighbors yard as well as coming very close to a flower garden in our yard. Nothing was hit or damaged. He was able to guide every piece to a safe landing! Very impressive. Also kind and respectful. Very pleasant situation.

I showed up and Doug was well into his work! I have forgotten that the treatment was happening this morning, and I open the door, letting my dog in, and they became quite fast friends. That’s almost the most important thing. More than that, was Doug‘s vibe, demeanor And very respectful attitude. I appreciate that he was doing the work completely on schedule and efficient. Five stars!
