Removal is the job with the least room for error. A limb can weigh more than the truck parked under it, and it has to travel forty feet down to one specific patch of grass, past a roofline, a lanai, a fence, and whatever the neighbor left in the driveway.
That is a rigging problem before it is a cutting problem. Our arborists work the tree in pieces. A block goes in above the cut, the piece comes off on a rope, and a groundman controls the whole descent from the base. Nothing free-falls onto your property.
Where the yard opens up enough to fell a trunk in one go, we will do that instead. It is faster, it takes fewer man-hours, and it costs you less. Part of the estimate is deciding which of the two the site actually allows.
Before we quote it, an arborist looks at it
Dead wood, storm damage, roots lifting a driveway, a trunk leaning toward the bedroom window. We have taken down every version of it in this county. Sometimes the visit ends with us telling you the tree is healthy and worth keeping, and we say so even though removal pays better.
If the tree is close to a service drop, we coordinate the shutdown before anyone goes up. If a permit is required for the species or the size, we will tell you that during the estimate rather than after the truck is in your driveway.
What a removal includes
- Strategic piecing and lowering on ropes for tight lots
- Accurate felling where the yard gives us room
- Dead, diseased, hollow and storm-damaged trees
- Trees leaning toward a structure, a pool cage or a service drop
- Brush and debris hauled off the property the same day
- Stump grinding on the same visit if you want it
- Workers' compensation carried on every man on your property
