Professional Tree Removal Services
Tree removal of small trees presents no special problems. In fact, some homeowners choose to tackle small tree removals themselves. However, tree disposal can offer a challenge–especially if the tree is infected and must be removed from the property. As trees grow and increase in size, both in height and width, they become increasingly more difficult to remove, making the services of a professional highly desirable if not an absolute necessity. When choosing a tree service company to remove a tree from your property, it is important to identify a company that has:
Tree Pruning & Shrub Trimming
More commonly referred to as tree trimming, tree pruning is the most common maintenance operation. While it’s best to prune trees in their dormant season, pruning can take place any time of the year.
Trees require a higher level of care to maintain their health, safety, and aesthetics. Pruning is not just “cutting” and should be performed with an understanding of how the tree will respond to each cut. Improper pruning is harmful and can cause damage that will last for the life of your tree or worse, shorten its life span.
Annual pruning cycles provide for the management of growth, not only in training the tree structurally but to aid in the early identification and treatment of any health problems.
Improper pruning such as the “broccoli cut” can cause lasting damage to your trees and even shorten their lifespans.
Stump Grinding
Stump grinding is an effective way to level the spot where a tree has been removed. Not only are tree stumps visually incompatible with a manicured landscape, but they can also be a tripping hazard and may cause damage to a lawnmower. What’s more, tree stumps often continue to push up unsightly suckers, or even small trees, for years to come, creating the need for unnecessary, ongoing pruning maintenance. Tree stumps also make a perfect home for insects, including termites, ants and beetles. Having a tree stump professionally grinded away is the least intrusive way to finish a tree removal project. It leaves the space aesthetically pleasing and won’t attract pests into your yard.
At Advanced Tree Care, we have the equipment needed to efficiently grind stumps of all sizes. Once grinding is complete, what remains are wood chips which we can haul away or transport to an area in your yard to serve as mulch.
