Storm Damage

    The first wet and messy snow storm has hit Maine and has left a lot of us with a mess to clean up. Trees are essential to our homes for cooling in the summer and landscaping aesthetics year round. Some tree species fit in well close to a house and some tree species can be very hazardous next to homes. Trees can also benefit from pruning or cabling to increase their structural integrity and health over time.  Thinning trees and favoring specific trees while they are young will set the stage for the trees around your home for the next 100 or more years.  We work with naturally regenerated trees to save the overall cost of potentially planting.


    Tree services can get expensive at times, and challenging for those that live with a very tight budget. Tree trucks, chippers, equipment and labor add up to more than a small hourly operating cost. We strive to be hard working and efficient on all of our jobs to keep the cost as low as possible for our clients. We also work with your needs to custom fit our services.

    So as you start to add up the cost of our services and begin to weigh your options, consider, HOW MUCH YOU ARE ACTUALLY SAVING BY HAVING THE WORK DONE BEFORE MOTHER NATURE DOES IT FOR YOU AND CAUSES SUBSTANTIAL DAMAGE?

Spring Tree Care and Projects are Arriving Fast!

Spring is arriving very quickly.  The buds on the trees are starting to swell.  Soon they will leaf out and it will be easy to see which limbs on your trees are dead.  Trees with dead or decaying wood attract insects and diseases and can be a hazard to your home and family.  They can also cause long term damage to other trees including some that may be favorites.  Care and maintenance are needed for healthy trees and forests.  Get a professional opinion if you are not sure of the extent of the issue or how to best fix the problem.

Snow and Ice Storms

Keep an eye on the trees around your home.  Snow and ice can weigh trees down causing them to break, which may damage your property or even crush a house.
