Ornamental Tree Pruning
You probably have some beautiful trees on your lawn, but like anything else you see every day, you learned to look past them and have not noticed they are starting to look a little shaggy. Just like a good haircut, professional pruning can really freshen up a whole property. Regular pruning also improves the health and longevity of your trees, preventing the buildup of dead interior branching which may invite fungus and rot. Let us help you realize your property’s potential.

Shrub and Hedge Trimming
Shrubs and hedges habitually outgrow their planned landscaping dimensions. They will encroach on your windows, driveways, and sidewalks, and may even cause damage to your roof or siding. Homeowners can be driven to drastic action to reclaim their space, but excessive improper pruning can spoil the look of your shrubs, producing large bare patches. We can help you manage your shrubs at an acceptable size, while keeping them healthy and vigorous.

Canopy Trimming
Many homeowners undervalue their shade trees, which can dramatically reduce cooling bills and often add thousands to property values. Thick canopies can shade out lower branches, however, and the resulting deadwood buildup may increase the likelihood and severity of storm damage. Thick canopies can also shade out your lawn and cause bald patches. We recommend regular canopy thinning for tree health and property safety.

Deadwood/Hazard Branch Removal
Interior branches inevitably die off as they are shaded out by the larger canopy. Deadwood invites fungus and rot which may work its way into the trees living tissue and cause its untimely demise. Large dead limbs may even pose a significant safety or property hazard. We used well practiced rigging techniques to remove those hazards safely.

Tree Removal
The total removal of a tree is a big decision, and we prefer to think of it as a measure of last resort, but there are many reasons removal may be necessary, including trees causing foundation damage or presenting safety hazards. Tree removals are often complicated and delicate operations with significant risk of property damage if performed unprofessionally. These jobs should only be given to someone you really trust.

Storm Damage Cleanup
Michigan’s wind and ice wreak havoc on thousands of trees every year. We’ll cut up and haul away your downed and damaged branches. We prioritize storm damage in our work schedule, but please note that we are NOT able to provide same-day emergency services.
