TREE PRUNING

Trees should be pruned at least every two years.

• Makes your trees healthier by getting rid of damaged or dead branches
• Increases the air flow in the tree which decreases the number of insects
• Eliminates interior cross and rubbing branches so the energy goes to the exterior of the tree
• Cutting lower limbs and/or thinning the interior of the tree allows sunlight to penetrate and helps grass under the tree grow
• Improves the overall aesthetics of your property

TREE REMOVAL

Although we believe in preserving trees, there are occasions when a tree needs to be removed due to disease, death or new construction. However, there is a “right way” to remove a tree. Our first priority is safety to your property. We usually cut a tree down limb by limb to avoid using heavy equipment like cherry pickers and cranes on your property. This avoids damaging your lawn and disturbing the area around the tree being removed. Our second priority is clean up. You’ll wonder if we were ever there!

STUMP GRINDING

Some stumps do not need to be removed, such as those in a wooded backyard. However, sometimes stumps are removed for aesthetic reasons. In these cases, we bring in a machine to grind down the stump 8″-10″ below grade (ground level). If you’re going to plant another tree in the same hole, we’ll bring it down to about 24″.
