Tree Removal and Planting

• Tree Removal
  Tree Removal followed by the planting of another tree in a different location on the property may be, in some cases, the only reasonable option. Alternatively, a more suitable tree may be planted at the site of the tree that was removed.
• Stump Grinding and Removal
• Crown Reduction
  Several techniques, used alone or in combination, comprise excellent view restoration strategies. Crown thinning and creating 'windows' are the two pruning techniques which provide the benefits of both views and vegetation. Selective removal of branches by these techniques provides, in the first case, a filtered view, and, in the second, a view as seen through a window in the tree canopy. These two pruning techniques, if properly done, restore views with the least amount of injury to the tree itself and to the role it playing in the landscape.

Tree Care

• Tree Pruning and Trimming
  The guiding principle of tree pruning for view enhancement is to work with the natural branching habit of the tree. Avoid stubbing cuts (topping ) and excessive thinning; either of these practices results in over-pruning. Trees may die from over-pruning or respond with rampant growth of weakly attached branches which quickly obscure the view again.
• Tree Maintenance
  Certified Arborists are individuals who have achieved a level of knowledge in the art and science of tree care through experience and by passing a comprehensive examination developed by some of the nation’s leading experts on tree care. Certified Arborists must also continue their education to maintain their certification and adhere to a Code of Ethics. Therefore, they are up to date on the latest techniques in arboriculture.

• Tree Mulching
  Most tree problems are due to incorrect growing conditions in the soil. These conditions are the result of incorrect planting and mulching, fill built up around the trunk, fill built up over the root system and the general poor quality and structure of urban soil. Deeply planted and buried trees and/or trees planted in compacted soils are more inclined to have girdling roots, pest problems, poor growth, decline and death.
