Tree Trimming & Tree Removal

Aerial Basket Tree Trimming & Removal

Our Certified Arborists use aerial basket equipment to safely and efficiently trim or remove trees.

Safe & Efficient Access – Aerial baskets allow our team to reach even the tallest trees while minimizing risk.
Advanced Equipment – From bucket trucks to specialized lifts that fit through standard gates, we can access trees in almost any location.
Property Protection – Aerial removals help prevent damage to surrounding structures and landscaping.
Crane-Assisted Tree Removal

For trees in hard-to-reach areas or too unstable for traditional removal, our Certified Arborists use cranes to ensure a safe and controlled process.

Minimizing Impact – Ideal for removals near buildings, delicate landscapes, or areas where heavy machinery could cause damage.
Safe & Efficient – Trees are carefully dismantled and lowered piece by piece to a designated area.
Precision Equipment – We select the right crane based on tree size and site accessibility, ranging from 38-ton cranes for smaller jobs to 175-ton cranes for the largest trees.
Tree Climbing Specialist

When Aerial Baskets can’t reach, our Certified Arborists can!

Expert Access – Our skilled climbers use rope techniques to safely reach any height.
Tree Health First – Climbing spikes are only used for removals to prevent wounds that can spread disease and cause decay.
Safe & Efficient – Our team follows industry best practices to ensure precision and protection for both the tree and surrounding property.

Tree Cabling & Support Systems

Strong winds, heavy snow, and dense foliage can put stress on vulnerable trees. Our Certified Arborists assess whether a cabling system can help reinforce your tree and reduce the risk of failure.

Types of Tree Cabling Systems:

Static (Steel) Cabling – Provides maximum support for trees with weak branch unions, existing splits, or decay.
Dynamic (Polyester Rope) Cabling – A non-invasive, flexible option that allows natural movement while reducing the chance of branch failure.

Not sure which system is right for your tree? Our experts will evaluate the tree’s structure and recommend the best solution to preserve its health and longevity.

Tree Pruning

Proper tree pruning requires expertise—incorrect cuts or poor timing can lead to decay and long-term damage. Our Certified Arborists assess each tree’s needs and your goals to ensure safe, effective pruning.

Our Pruning Services:

Crown Cleaning – Removes dead, diseased, and broken limbs.
Crown Thinning – Reduces branch density to improve airflow and light penetration.
Crown Raising – Increases vertical clearance for structures, pathways, and vehicles.
Crown Reduction – Lowers tree height while preserving its natural shape by pruning back to a healthy, supportive branch.
Custom Pruning – Tailored branch removal based on the tree owner’s request and arborist recommendations.

What We Won’t Do:

Some pruning techniques can severely harm trees, which is why we never perform:

Topping – Cutting back limbs to a predetermined height, which weakens the tree and promotes weak, fast-growing sprouts prone to decay.
Lion’s Tailing – Over-thinning the interior branches, leading to structural imbalance and increased risk of failure

Our team follows industry best practices to keep your trees healthy, strong, and beautiful.

Tree Disease Diagnosis & Treatment

Just like people, trees can get sick due to environmental stress, insect damage, or disease. Our Certified Arborists act as tree doctors, diagnosing issues and providing treatment solutions to keep your trees healthy.

Our Process:

Identify the cause of disease or damage.
Recommend treatment options tailored to your tree’s needs (e.g., Emerald Ash Borer treatment).
Provide an accurate measurement-based estimate.
Follow up to answer questions and ensure the best care for your tree.
