Services
Tree Removal
Our tree removal service safely and efficiently handles trees of all sizes using manual climbing techniques instead of heavy machinery. We assess each site for optimal removal strategy, process trees into firewood or mulch as requested, and guarantee complete cleanup with no damage to surrounding property. With expertise in hazardous tree removal, we prioritize safety and efficiency while maintaining competitive pricing.
Pruning
Professional pruning services enhance tree health, structural integrity, and aesthetic appeal. We remove dead or diseased branches, thin dense canopies, and selectively shape trees for safety and clearance. Our preventative maintenance approach reduces storm damage risks and prolongs tree lifespan while maintaining natural growth patterns through precise, science-based techniques.
Planting
We specialize in strategic tree planting that considers long-term growth patterns and environmental benefits. Our experts select appropriate species for local conditions, ensure proper soil preparation, and implement planting techniques that promote strong root development. This service focuses on establishing healthy trees that enhance property value and ecological sustainability for future decades.
Woodworks
Our woodworks service transforms harvested trees into functional art pieces like dining tables, bar tops, and desks. We mill live-edge slabs on-site, season them for two years, and collaborate with clients to select and reserve wood for custom projects. This unique offering combines forestry expertise with craftsmanship to create lasting furniture from locally sourced materials.
Treehouses
Specialized treehouse construction combines structural engineering with arboricultural knowledge to create safe, durable elevated structures. We design and build custom treehouses that integrate harmoniously with living trees, using techniques that protect tree health while ensuring structural integrity. This niche service requires advanced climbing skills and specialized hardware for long-term stability.
