Tree Removal
Trees have many special meanings to different people. It could have sentimental value, memories of childhood, provide shade, or just a good old friend you have nurtured and watched grow over the years. Unfortunately, there may come a time when a tree must be removed. Removing a tree may be a necessary procedure when no other method is available to make the tree structurally sound and safe.

Our root pruning machine cleanly severs the root systems of trees to protect them from potential damage (ripping and tearing) during the construction process. Root pruning is also a useful tool for disease prevention, as it isolates diseased root systems and minimizes the risk of pathogens spreading via root grafting.

Cable Bracing
Cable bracing is used to support structurally weak trees that are susceptible to damage from winds, storms, or even the weight of their own foliage. This support technique uses hardware to make the tree more structurally stable. As Certified Arborists, it is our responsibility to safeguard people, property, and the environment from potentially hazardous trees.

Tree Decay and Resistograph Testing
Heartwood decay, or heart rot, is the occurrence of decay in living trees. It could be defined as decay that develops primarily in the heartwood or inner wood of living trees, and usually refers to decay that primarily develops in the trunk or limbs, rather than in the roots or the buttress root flair of the tree.

Lightning Protection
A lightning protection system is one way to protect mature trees that have high value. The protection system consists of copper conductor wires that run from the top of the tree (and sometimes major lateral limbs) into the soil. We use our air-spade tool to trench 6–8 inches deep for the cable to run from the tree trunk out to beyond the drip line. The cables are then attached to copper coated ground rods which are driven 10 feet into the ground.
