Tree Removal
The removal of a tree can provide the needed sunlight for the garden, the safety of future timber falls due to an infestation that is too advanced it can’t be treated, or just removing the unwanted tree or shrubbery. When the decision has been made to remove the tree we use the proper equipment and measures to remove the tree safely.
Tree Trimming
Tree trimming improves the health and appearance of the trees and prolongs their life. The removal of the necessary branches due to the limb being undesirable, dead, weakened, diseased or insect – infested
Brush Chipping
Our capabilities of chipping include: whole trees, limbs, or even brush itself, and turn them into valuable chips or composting material that we can either remove from the site or leave for your future use.
Wood Chips
Wood chips are great for spreading along pathways, between and around trees, or as an additive for compost that are offered at your convenience
Stump Removal
Stump removal may be necessary after the removal of a tree. Those unsightly stumps detract from the value of your house and also may cause a trip and fall accident. In addition, tree stumps, if not removed can become a home for insects such as termites, wasps, and bees.
Cabling & Bracing
We can help to maintain and save your mature shade trees and evergreens by installing discreet cables to distribute weight or by-pass lightning strikes.
Cabling involves installing steel cables between major limbs to reduce the strain and help support the tree. Cabling also helps reduce stress damage from high winds and excess ice or snow weight.
For large, weak, or split crotches, bracing is used to give direct support and reduce twisting strain on the tree. A metal rod is inserted through the crotch and two more cables are placed above it.
