How do you handle the removal of a tree that is located in a hard-to-reach area of my yard?

Our team uses advanced rigging techniques and high-reach cranes to lift tree sections safely over fences, landscaping, or structures. This "low-impact" method allows us to remove large trees from tight spaces without bringing heavy, turf-damaging equipment deep into your lawn.

What is the benefit of cabling and bracing over simply removing a leaning tree?

Cabling and bracing are structural support systems that use flexible steel cables or rigid rods to reduce the physical stress on a tree with weak branch attachments or split trunks. This proactive approach can extend the life of a high-value or sentimental tree by decades while significantly reducing the risk of failure during a storm.

Will my lawn be left with ruts or damage after a major tree project?

We prioritize property protection by using specialized ground mats to distribute the weight of our vehicles and equipment. By avoiding the direct movement of heavy machinery on soft turf, we ensure your grass and soil remain undisturbed even during extensive removals or pruning.

How do you determine if a tree is just "unwell" or if it needs to be completely removed?

Our ISA-certified arborists perform a comprehensive assessment of the tree’s canopy, trunk integrity, and root flare to identify signs of decay or internal rot. If the structural health is sound, we will recommend a plant healthcare plan or strategic pruning; however, if the tree poses a liability to people or property, we will provide a safe removal plan.

Nathan and 2 amazing, tree-climbing women with ropes and saws were up in our trees doing their thing and being so careful not to cause any damage to our property. The team couldn’t have been nicer and I feel like the whole experience, from sales to clean up was seamless- I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Bratt tree service

I have used Bratt Tree for about 5 years. Ian (the arborist) is well informed, explains things clearly, and does not oversell. Pruning is usually best done in winter when the tree is dormant to prevent diseases. (The exceptions are diseased or unstable, or dangerous trees.) Bratt offers a off-season winter discount that can be set up with the free summer consultation. Their climbing crew is properly equipped and experienced to work safely.

I lack enough adjectives to describe how pleased we are. The office communicated clearly and timely, the crew was prompt and efficient, unbelievably the noise was negligible and the work and clean up impeccable. They were also $2000 below our next lowest bid.
