I am a trained arborist skilled in tree removals, pruning, lightning protection, stump grinding and tree care. I am fully insured.
Stump Removal/Grinding:
In the event that your tree needs to be removed or if a tree has fallen after a storm, we can remove the tree as well as the stump.
Prior to removing the stump, we recommend to contact the the underground utility service (phone # 811). It is a free service to verify that there are no underground electrical, gas or water lines concerns that may be encountered.
Tree Removal:
We can remove standing trees or trees that have fallen. We are able to work safely around electrical lines (not high voltages), homes and property and are fully insured. The resulting lumber and debris can be removed completely, or if you prefer, can be left for you as wood chips or firewood.
Cabling/Bracing:
If your tree shows signs of splitting or is leaning, we can help provide the necessary support to the tree by cabling, bracing or both.
Lightning Protection:
Lightning can damage trees and if struck, the energy may travel down the trunk, and then jump to a more conductive structure or person. This may result in bodily harm or fires.
A system may be installed in your tree that conducts the lightning from the top of the tree safely to the ground. This has been shown to reduce the risk of damage to trees or property/persons.
Storm Damage:
We can assist with the fallout after a storm as well as help you mitigate your risk prior to a storm hitting.
Tree pruning:
It is highly recommended not only for aesthetic reasons, but to extend the life of your trees. It is important that your trees be maintained regularly. In order to achieve maximal benefit from pruning, it should be done correctly, based upon tree pruning standards for the specific type of tree and time of year.
Our company is composed of trained arborists. We climb and work on the trees using the latest climbing techniques. We will not use spikes or ladders, as these may damage the tree.
Pruning Objectives:
Maintaining health
If you start to care for your trees in the early stages it will be less costly and beneficial for the structure and health of your trees
Reducing the potential for tree or branch failure
If you have a mature tree near your home, garage, parking, playground, or any structure, etc. You want to make sure that it is safe for the location.
Providing clearance
If you have trees or bushes near a building or structure, pruning will need not only be beneficial to your tree, but also to your property by eliminating rodent and pest access.
Reducing shade and wind resistance
Pruning and thinning out a canopy from overhanging trees can help provide more sunlight for plants or gardens below. Thinning out the branches of a large tree will also help keep the area safer during a windstorm.
Influencing flower or fruit production
If you have apple, pear, peach or other fruit or flowering trees, there are pruning practices that may help improve or reduce production.
