Crane Tree Removal
When using a crane:
We can provide a safe and efficient no impact tree removal at a lower cost than traditional methods.
Greatly reduces the amount of time that it takes to remove the tree and it also decreases the impact to the surroundings.
Removing trees with a crane is half art and half science. No two trees are alike, and each individual tree must be handled differently.
During the meeting, we will determine the best area for the crane to be set up. Multiple factors will be taken into consideration. Elevation/grade changes, overhead obstacles, distance from the landing and picking areas and of course space for the crane.
Prior to lifting the tree climber/cutter into place, the crane operator and tree climber will formulate a strategy for the removal process. Each cut and lift will be carefully planned and discussed.
Once a removal plan is established the work will then begin.
Stump Grinding
Stump grinding allows a safe, efficient, and complete tree stump removal so that you can use the area where the tree once was for a different purpose:
We use a high-tech, professional stump grinder to mechanically remove the entire tree stump.
Stump grinding is the most efficient and effective form of stump removal. When you opt for stump grinding, you can rest assured that the entire tree stump will be removed, thus eliminating the hazards and safety risks of an exposed stump.
Stump grinding also ensures that termites, ants, bees, snakes, and other pests do not have a ready habitat in which to nest.
Opting for stump grinding rather than stump removal demands less of an impact on your landscaping.
Stump grinding does not create a hole, and the grindings from the stump can be used as mulch for your landscaping.
Tree Pruning
Pruning may be necessary to maintain or improve the health, appearance, and safety of trees.
These techniques include:
Eliminating branches that rub against each other
Removing limbs that interfere with wires, building facades, gutters, roofs, chimneys, windows, or that obstruct streets or sidewalks
Removing dead or weak limbs that pose a hazard or may lead to decay
Removing diseased or insect-infested limbs
Creating better structure to lessen wind resistance and reduce the potential for storm damage
Training young trees
Removing limbs damaged by adverse weather conditions
Removing branches, or thinning, to increase light penetration
Improving the shape or silhouette of the tree
