Additional Services

Tree Topping- Trimming a tree line by a significant amount.  This is a practice that is not done by professionals in the tree service industry because it will decrease the life of a tree.   We will not trim the canopy of a tree more than 20% of its overall height or spread.  Very few tree species can handle this much trimming

Extending Surface Roots- Roots that extend more than 3 feet from the trunk of the tree and are above the ground level

Utilities & Elements

Hidden Elements-an object inside a tree that our equipment is not designed to cut, such as concrete, fencing, or metal 
Underground Utilities -these are items that are very important for you to mark before we work on your property, such as sprinkler sytems, buried gas, electric, or phone or cable tv lines, septic tanks or fields, invisible dog fences.
