Tree Surgery Services

An arborist is a specialist in the care of individual trees. Arborists are knowledgeable about the needs of trees and are trained and equipped to provide proper care.

Hiring an arborist is a decision that should not be taken lightly.

Proper tree care is an investment that can lead to substantial returns. Well-cared-for trees are attractive and can add considerable value to your property. Poorly maintained trees can be a significant liability.

Pruning or removing trees, especially large trees, can be dangerous work. Tree work should be done only by those trained and equipped to work safely in trees.

Straight tree felling is when a notch is taken from lower down the tree giving control over which direction the tree falls. It is essential for health and safety that there is enough clearance around the tree. 

Sectional tree felling uses ropes and harneses allowing arborists to safely climb the tree and fell and prune it in a safe way. This method allows branches to be lowered to the ground using rigging techniques to avoid any obstructions such as buildings or other trees.

Some trees with heavy foliage like conifers, are often used by nesting birds during spring and summer. Our tree suregons strongly recommend that if tree felling or substantial pruning is needed it is best done between October and February.
