Services
Tree Cutting
Our certified arborists perform precision tree cutting using advanced equipment and strategic felling techniques. We conduct comprehensive property assessments to determine optimal cutting angles and directions, ensuring safety for structures and landscaping. The process includes branch removal to minimize impact footprint, controlled notching for directional felling, and post-cut wood processing or disposal options.
Stump Grinding
We utilize modern stump grinding equipment to eliminate tree stumps at ground level while preserving underground root systems. Our service offers two options: standard grinding for landscaping preparation or complete stump removal for major construction projects. Equipment selection varies based on tree species and stump size to ensure efficient execution.
Tree Pruning
Our pruning services focus on enhancing tree health and structural integrity while maintaining aesthetic appeal. Certified climbers perform selective limb removal to eliminate deadwood, improve light penetration, and reduce wind resistance. We employ various tools including pole-pruners and chainsaws to execute both canopy lifting and formative shaping operations.
Crown Reduction
This specialized service reduces tree height and limb weight through strategic pruning techniques. We focus on maintaining natural tree form while addressing safety concerns from overgrown branches. The process involves careful cut placement to minimize decay risk and preserve structural integrity, particularly for trees near power lines or structures.
Hedging Services
Our hedging specialists transform overgrown shrubs into functional privacy barriers or decorative landscape features. Using both electric shears and manual tools, we perform precision shaping that encourages dense growth while maintaining structural strength against weather elements. The service includes formative pruning to establish desired shapes and maintenance trimming for ongoing aesthetic control.

Im very disappointed after reading all the positive reviews. Glenn made an appointment with us to come and cut our trees down Friday, November 6, but never showed up. I called him twice that day, each time leaving a message, but he never returned my calls. I called him again on Saturday, left a message but he never called me back. Hes not reliable. I will never think of hiring him again.

They've done multiple jobs for me and always with the utmost of respect and a great job everytime. Can say enough about how good these guys are. If you want a fair price and a job well done give Glenn a call.

He cut down the tree but left the pile of logs on my lawn for more than a month, even though removing them was included in the quote. He's told me several times that he would remove them 'this week' but the weeks come and go while the pile remains. I do not recommend his services at all. I paid him in full, but he did not complete the job. I am very disappointed.
