Deciding to remove a tree can be a hefty task in itself. The reasoning behind tree removal can vary between trees, and every situation is different. When storms roll through it can be dangerous to leave a beat-up tree standing. With less canopy to produce energy and a potentially weakened root system, it is often better to get it down on your own terms before it decides to come down on its own. Maybe a tree has grown larger than expected, hanging limbs the size of a Prius over your bedroom. The best answer may be a full removal instead of pruning due to the probable likelihood of disease and rot after removing a large limb. The reason to remove it may even be as simple as you don’t like the tree. We will work with you to try to find a solution to keep the tree, but this is America, the land of the free! If you decide it's time for your tree to go, it's time for it to go!

There is something unique about the area we live. It takes a special type of person with a strong get er done mentality to deal with this harsh environment. So you ask yourself, how hard can it be to get rid of this tree myself? A quick '“Tree Cutting Fails'“ search on YouTube can be a fun way to make you rethink the idea of a DIY tree removal project. We have many customers that do possess the skills and knowledge to safely bring a tree down, and you might be one of them, but putting the tree on the ground is only part of the whole removal process. Trees are always bigger on the ground than they look while still standing. Now you have a huge pile of brush to deal with, heavy logs to move, and a monster stump to grind. After 2 burned-up weekends, 3 cases of beer for buddies that have helped, and a worn-out back that may never feel right again, the saving money game starts working against you. That is where we come in!

Depending on where your tree is, what the ground conditions are like, and a pile of other variables, we will decide what to bring for equipment. Often we can get to the trees with our 4wd bucket truck, but sometimes we need to bring an all-terrain lift or even get the tree climber to strap on his spurs and swing around on his ropes. It pays to have all the different options! Even when it comes to cleaning up we have different equipment to choose from based on exactly what you need. Our tracked skid loader and grapple can make quick work of even the heaviest logs, but she is a big lady. If the tree removal is in a tight location, access is over a septic drain field, or the lawn needs to stay in pristine condition, we bring out our small utility tractor. On the weekends it plays lawn mower, but during the week it has a grapple on the front, dancing around the work site, carefully cleaning up after the tree removal.

It is not just the equipment that makes us the company you want to handle your tree removal. We live and breathe trees. During our off time, we are still cutting wood, climbing trees for fun, practicing new cutting techniques, watching videos about trees, annoying our wives with tree facts, and studying up on the latest developments in arboriculture.
