01. How do I know if a tree needs to be removed?
If you’re unsure, our arborist can perform a tree risk assessment and explain whether pruning, cabling, or removal is safest for your home.
02. Can you remove trees near power lines or homes?
03. What happens to the wood and debris after the job?
We also offer wood-chipping and mulch-return options if you’d like to reuse the material on your own property.
04. Is your crew licensed, insured, and professionally trained?
Our team members receive ongoing safety and rigging training through ISA (International Society of Arboriculture) standards, so you’re protected on every job.
05. Will my yard or property be damaged during tree work?
Every job is planned to prevent contact with fences, siding, driveways, or flower beds. We also perform a full walk-through cleanup before leaving so your yard looks better than when we arrived.
06. How often should trees be trimmed or inspected?
Younger or fast-growing trees may need annual shaping. We recommend a yearly inspection for older or storm-exposed trees to catch decay early.
