Our Services
Tree Removal
If a tree is dead, diseased, or poses a safety hazard, we can remove it safely and efficiently.
Pruning
Whether you need a limb removed or branches pruned our Arborists can help you while using limited to no heavy equipment using traditional methods in a modern way, using ropes and pulleys to gently access your tree ensuring not only it's health and safety but keeping your yard smooth and neighbors happy
Crown Raising
When we remove some of the lower limbs to make the crown start higher from the ground we call it crown raising. It's a great way improve room for activities under your tree
Storm Cleanup
Quick and courteous cleanup jobs, our professionals show up ready to work
*We do not work with energized storm cleanups i.e. downed powerlines, or trees fallen through walls if the possibility of electric is there. Roofs, windows, garages or buildings that can be de-energized by the power company are OK
Splitting
Even the most die-hard homesteader needs a hand once in awhile, and we love helping you cut and split trees. Our arborists have years of splitting experience whether by hand with an axe or using state of the art splitters and can leave you with a pile quicker than you can say "Lake effect weather"
Take it or leave it
Leaving cut and split wood for you
Sometimes you just need someone to come with a bigger chainsaw and axe, or just save you time. Calling us isn't admitting defeat but saving resources.
Most trees can be cut and split into wood the same day depending on the size of the job. Whether we decide to use a splitter or an axe your quoted price stays the same
Pre emptive storm maintenence
Remove it before it causes damage
Arborist can help you stop something before it becomes the problem you know it will. Sometimes the damage lingers and we can get it before it gets you!
Using patience and skillsets we climb the tree and set pulleys, then using specialty equipment rig the limbs and trees so they can be lowered safely without causing any damage.
If you have an unhealthy or broken tree that you've been starting at every storm now is the time to give us a call
Deep Clean Pruning
Juniper prior to pruning
A web of small dead branches and thick vines are clogging up the inside of this tree and have been for decades
Juniper after pruning
Clean cuts at the precise part of the base keeps your tree healthy
The only damage occured during this pruning was the slight surface peeling of the bark from the incredibly thick vine growing on it
Juniper prior to pruning
This old girl has alot going on!
1. Over 60% of the branches are long dead restricting sunlight and airflow, as well as offering a haven for vines
2. There are 2 very large and old vines growing along the root system of this tree and a large portion of the canopy you see is vine.

Now we have removed all of the dead branches and vines what we have left is healthy tree
This was achieved without taking off any living tissue except for some damage to the bark while removing vines
Vines entangled at the top, with the largest one being poison ivy almost as thick as the tree top!
