Not sure which service you need. Start with a friendly site visit. We will evaluate tree health, identify risk, and explain the pros and cons of pruning versus removal. You will receive a written estimate before work begins, and we schedule projects Monday through Saturday between 8 am and 6 pm to fit your week.

We respect your property at every stage of the work. Protective mats help limit turf impact, and we use spotters to safeguard siding, fences, and plantings. When the job is done, we rake, blow, and sweep so walkways and driveways are clean. Our goal is to leave your yard looking better than we found it, with healthy trees and zero mess.

Tree Removal

Safe, efficient tree removal protects people and property when a tree is dead, diseased, storm damaged, or growing in a hazardous location. Our crew uses industry standard rigging, ropes, and controlled lowering to remove trees in tight spaces without damaging nearby structures, lawns, or gardens. When access allows, we deploy modern equipment to speed the job while maintaining strict safety procedures.

Before any removal, we assess tree lean, canopy weight, decay, and obstacles such as fences, sheds, and overhead lines. We then develop a step by step plan that may include climbing, piecing down limbs, and sectional trunk cuts. Wood can be cut to manageable lengths for you to stack, or hauled away on request. We finish by raking and blowing the work area so your yard looks neat.

Signs you may need removal include a hollow trunk, large dead branches over walkways, roots lifting sidewalks, a tree that noticeably leans after a storm, or repeated dieback after pruning. If a tree can be saved, we will tell you. If it must come down, we will remove it safely and efficiently at a fair price.

Tree Care and Pruning

Thoughtful pruning improves tree structure, light penetration, and airflow, which reduces disease pressure and encourages healthy growth. Our pruning plans are tailored to species, age, and location, with the goal of making trees safer and more beautiful while preserving their natural shape. We remove dead, dying, crossing, or pest damaged branches and reduce weight where limbs extend over roofs, driveways, and play areas.



Common pruning types include crown cleaning to eliminate dead wood, thinning to improve wind flow, raising to lift lower limbs for clearance, and reduction to bring high limbs back from structures. For young trees we focus on form and strong branch unions. For mature trees we balance risk reduction with canopy health, using careful, conservative cuts.

Seasonal timing matters. Winter and early spring pruning can open the canopy before growth begins, while mid summer touch ups remove minor hazards without stressing the tree. We schedule work around nesting activity when possible and we never top trees, as topping creates long term problems and weak regrowth.

Tree Trimming

Regular trimming keeps trees looking balanced and allows more light to reach lawns and gardens. It also reduces the chance of broken branches during storms. Our trimming focuses on removing small dead wood, clearing structures and walkways, and shaping the canopy so growth is directed where you want it. The result is a cleaner, healthier tree that complements your home or business.

We trim ornamental and shade trees of all sizes, paying attention to symmetry and natural form. For street facing trees, we can raise the canopy for vehicle and pedestrian clearance. For backyard trees, we thin interior branches to let in sunlight for grass and gardens while still maintaining privacy.

Trim cycles vary by species and site conditions, but many properties benefit from light trimming every one to three years. We will recommend a schedule that matches your trees, your goals, and your budget.

Hedge Trimming

Well trimmed hedges frame your property, increase privacy, and improve security by clearing sight lines. Our team shapes hedges and shrubs to a consistent height and width, gently tapering the sides so sunlight reaches the lower foliage. We remove clippings, clear walkways and driveways, and leave beds raked and tidy.



Whether you prefer crisp formal lines or a softer natural look, we tailor trim style to the plant species and your goals. Seasonal maintenance helps hedges hold their shape, promotes dense growth, and keeps branches off windows, gutters, and fences. For overgrown hedges we can stage corrective work over more than one visit to reduce stress.

Ask about combining hedge trimming with tree trimming or a cleanup visit to refresh beds and borders at the same time. Bundling services often saves time on scheduling and can reduce overall project cost.
