Pruning

Crown Clean-out:
Is the selective removal of dead, diseased, detached and broken branches. This reduces risk of branches falling from the tree and to reduce the movement of decay, insects and diseases from dead or dying branches into the rest of the tree.

Pruning to Raise:
Is the selective removal of branches to provide vertical clearance. This is done to provide clearance for buildings, signs, vehicles, pedestrians and vistas.

Pruning to Reduce:
Is the selective removal of branches and stems to decrease the height and / or spread of a tree. This is done to minimize risk of failure, reduce height of spread, utility line clearance, to clear vegetation from buildings or to improve appearance of a plant.

Tree Removal

Although tree removal is a last resort, there are circumstances when it is necessary. A Tree Tech arborist can help you decide whether or not a tree should be removed. We have the equipment, experience, and skills to safely and efficiently remove trees.
We are also fully insured and our employees are covered under the Worker's Compensation Act.
 
Removal is recommended when the tree is:

• Dead or in decline
• Considered irreparably hazardous
• To be removed for new construction
• Crowding or causing harm to other trees
• Causing an obstruction that is impossible to correct through pruning
• Causing damage to the surrounding landscape, building, or pavement

Stump Grinding

When safe removal of your tree or trees is completed, we can provide you with our stump grinding service. We have stump grinders of multiple sizes which allow us to perform this service in most locations and on any size of stump.

These machines grind the stump down approximately 6 - 8 inches below grade, and are able to grind visible surface roots as well. Normally the chips are left in the remaining hole and the excess is either used as mulch in surrounding landscape or removed.
