Tree Trimming

Trimming is one way to keep trees healthy and protect them from becoming a danger.  We are trained to assess the health of trees and make recommendations about what needs to be done.  We’ll be able to tell whether a tree is growing too tall or wide, or if it’s developing problems such as disease or have insects attacking it. We’ll also be able to provide tips on how to maintain the trees and keep them healthy.

Tree trimming is a skilled job that requires patience and skill.  You’ll need to know how much wood you’ll need to remove and where you should start.  We are equipped with the right tools to do the job safely and effectively.  Some of the tools we’ll use include hand saws, pole saws, chain saws, shears, and loppers. This allow us to safely and efficiently trim down trees without damaging surrounding areas.  Before starting tree trimming outside on the pavement, you’ll need a permit.  Most municipalities require permits for tree trimming and removal, so check with your local municipality before you get started. 

Removal of deadwood should be done every couple of years to assure healthy growth and keep insects from building a home in your trees.

Stump Removal

The easiest, fastest, safest and most cost effective way to remove unwanted stumps and roots from your property is to dig it out.  If left alone, stumps can become very unattractive as they age and they can last for several years.  As the stump dies suckers and shoots will continue to grow.  Stump removal will allow immediate use of the area where the stump was located before.

Hedge Trimming 

Hedge trimming maintenance is an ongoing commitment that ensures they stay looking their best all year round. Regular hedge trimming maintenance is crucial for preventing them from becoming overgrown and unruly. Overgrown hedges aren’t just unsightly; they can also become havens for pests and can overshadow other plants, depriving them of sunlight and nutrients.

We often underestimate how quickly hedges can grow, especially during the rainy season. Scheduling regular trimming sessions helps keep them within their designated boundaries and maintains the defined shapes that add structure to your garden. Moreover, regular trimming eliminates the need for drastic cuts that can stress and weaken your plants.
