Arborist making a reduction cut while tree trimming a maple in Grand Rapids MI

Tree Trimming & Pruning

Branch scraping the roof every time the wind picks up?

Pruning takes the weight and the reach out of the limbs that matter and leaves the rest of the tree alone. Most trees need less cut than people think.

Tree Removal

Dead ash by the driveway that gets a little more alarming every spring?

Removal, in sections if there is anything underneath it, with the stump quoted on the same sheet rather than as a surprise afterwards.

Night storm damage tree removal with a limb across a roof in Grand Rapids MI

Emergency & Storm Damage Tree Service

Tree across the drive at eleven at night with the power out?

Somebody picks up. We make it safe first and price the rest of it in the morning.

Stump grinder cutting a maple stump below grade in a Grand Rapids MI back yard

Stump Grinding & Stump Removal

Mowing around the same stump for the third summer running?

Grinding turns it into a pile of chips in under an hour on most residential stumps, and the hole gets backfilled the same visit.

ISA Certified Arborist inspecting a trunk cavity during a tree risk assessment in Grand Rapids MI

Arborist Consultations & Tree Risk Reports

Somebody has told you the tree is dangerous and you want a second opinion in writing?

A written risk assessment says what the defect is, what it could hit, and what the options cost. Sometimes the answer is that the tree is fine.

Emerald ash borer galleries under the bark of an ash tree in Grand Rapids MI

Tree Disease & Insect Treatment

Oak dropping green leaves in July, or an ash thinning from the top down?

Those are two specific diseases with two specific treatments and two very different windows. Both are cheaper than removal if you catch them.

Forestry mulcher clearing brush and small trees on a wooded lot near Grand Rapids MI

Land Clearing & Lot Clearing

Bought a wooded lot and the builder wants a pad by spring?

Selective clearing to the building envelope, mulched or hauled, with the trees worth keeping still standing and protected.

Poison ivy vine climbing a mature tree trunk in a Grand Rapids MI back yard

Brush & Poison Ivy Removal

Hairy vine running up the oak, and a rash every time you weed the fence line?

Cut, treated at the stump and removed rather than mulched, because a mulcher aerosolises it and everyone downwind pays for that.

Newly planted street tree with the root flare exposed on a Grand Rapids MI residential street

Tree Planting & Establishment

Took one down and the front of the house looks naked?

The right species in the right spot, planted at the correct depth, which is the single thing most new trees in this city get wrong.

Crew pruning parking lot trees at a commercial property in Grand Rapids MI

Commercial, HOA & Municipal Tree Service

Board asking why the same three trees keep generating work orders?

An inventory, a condition rating and a phased plan, so the budget stops being reactive and the documentation exists when somebody asks.

Guides

Not sure which one you need?

A person calls you back the same day, or first thing the next morning if you reach us after six. Storm calls get picked up whenever they come in.

Prefer to talk? Ring (616) 297-2972. Photographs help more than descriptions, and one that shows the gate or the side of the house is worth three of the tree.
