Tree Removal

We specialize in the removal of large and dangerous trees. Our staff is specially trained in the removal of dead and dying trees as well as trees that have grown too large for their space and pose a hazard to buildings and utility wires. This can and does create structural problems for your home, siding, windows, gutters etc. All trees will be removed while maintaining the integrity of the location. Debris will be cleaned up and the site will be restored with as little impact as possible.

 

Trimming and Ornamental Pruning and Shaping

Trees are often pruned to increase the height under the tree, reduce the overall height of the tree, remove dead or diseased branches, repair trees after storms, change the shape of a tree to make it more appealing to the eye or to increase growth or flowering. Pruning is a means of directing growth. It's done to remove dead wood, unsightly or broken branches, and diseased wood. It's also done to thin trees so that sunlight can come through the lawn below. It all sounds so simple, doesn't it? But the fact is that pruning is a skill. Only a trained arborist can make cuts that will close properly. So don't entrust the pruning of your valuable trees to anyone but a professional.

 

Thinning and Removal of Deadwood

A tree can be thinned to increase sunlight and allow lower branches to grow. Removal of deadwood keeps the tree healthy and reduces the chance of injury or property damage from falling limbs. This work is often referred to as “winter proofing” or “storm proofing” trees to minimize snow/ice damage as well as lessening chances of wind damage from winter storms/ nor’easters or hurricanes.

 

Bracing and Cabling

When trees have a weak or heavy limb structure, cabling/bracing is required to prevent limb failure. In addition, these systems should be examined yearly and after storms to be sure they are still intact. Tree trunks and limbs can be connected with steel fasteners and high tensile cables to provide added support to weak crotch structures or over-extended limbs. Trees with V-shaped crotches or crotch formations where the bark is "included" are mechanically weak and should be inspected to see if they need to be cabled.

All existing tree cables need periodic inspection and the trees themselves should be kept growing vigorously so they are producing new wood to help secure the anchors. Installing cables at the correct point, with the correct hardware is indeed work best suited for the expert arborist.

All "Tree Braces" must be routinely inspected for wear and the integrity of the anchoring wood should be evaluated. Although our average installed brace has an effective life of 10 to 20 years, once a brace has been in a tree more than 5 years, we like to have an arborist climb the tree(s) to make these evaluations up close and also prune the tree if necessary.

 

Stump Grinding

After a tree is removed, the stump should also be ground to prevent insect infestation and unsightly decay. The stump can be ground below the surface six to eight inches and you may backfill it to the surrounding grade. This allows you to reclaim the spot for lawn, shrubs or other landscape features.
