Before we even start trying to chop the tree down we are going to want to make sure that we are on the same page with you as far as what the removal process is going to entail. For the most part in residential areas, we are going to want to remove the tree bit by bit instead of just chopping it down. Mainly, because there is a good chance that we are not going to have a large enough area to allow the tree to gracefully fall down. Of course, we are going to be taking the tree remains along with us!

Stump Removal

When you remove a tree the main reason why you would leave a stump behind is that the roots of the tree are just so embedded in the soil that removing them is going to leave a major hole behind. If that’s essentially your main concern then what we are going to be able to do is grind the stump. In any case, if you have a stump and you want to find a way to get rid of it we are going to be able to help you out.

Land Clearing

Are you finally going to build something on that empty plot of land that you have? If so then we can help.

In some cases, we may even be dealing with garbage in the middle of all of that debris. Whatever the case may be we are going to be able to come in and clear up the land so that you can start building on a clean surface.

Tree Trimming and Pruning

Trimming or pruning your trees is essentially the same thing. It is a great way to let more light into the inner sections of your trees which will allow for better growth of new branches and foliage. The best practice for pruning is to make it into a habit of say once a month or two to give your trees a little hair cut. Just like our hair gets healthier if we maintain and get a trim, so do our trees.

Trimming also lets rain and moisture into your trees which is great for keeping the internal foliage of your tree moist and promote growth and health to the whole tree. One mistake some people make is that they over prune so they don't have to do it as often. Over pruning actually damages your trees, trees need only a trim of the old branches so that new branches can grow and the tree can be healthy. 

Cutting too many branches of a tree is like cutting the blood supply circulation for your tree, this can cause a lot of damage and can potentially kill or over expose your trees to harmful diseases. Spending sometime taking care of your trees is a great stress reliever and can be a soothing way to send your weekends showing some love to your natural friends.

Lemon Tree Pruning

Any fruit bearing tree needs pruning to improve the quality of the fruits, breakage and to increase the aeration and light to the every branch. Like all fruit trees you need to cut back lemon trees to foster healthier fruit. It is important to know that unlike most fruit bearing trees; lemon trees are stronger and do not break under the weight of the fruit.

Because the lemon fruit grows in shades as well the tree does not need pruning for light or aeration. With that being said it is still important to prune the tree from time to time. The best time to prune lemon trees is when it starts to produce new branches and flowers.

​If your tree is a young one removing a bunch of sprouts in odd places and cutting out any weak branch is enough for the tree.
