Tree removal service in Skokie

Removing a tree can be a very technical undertaking. It's not just as simple as grabbing a chain saw and cutting away at the tree, there is a lot of planning and analyzing and a lot of forethought that goes into it before actually making a cut. Improper planning can be the quickest way to get hurt in this field, and unfortunately a wrong move can mean the loss of a limb or even death. We don't take unnecessary risks in our line of work. We also remove trees in phases, not all at once like you see in the movies. We first attack the outer branches that are the easiest to remove and the ones that would get caught on something like telephone and electrical wires. They are also the ones that could easily break through windows which are completely avoidable. After that, we continue down the trunk of the tree and continue to take large segments off, piece by piece. This is the safest and most controlled way to do it.

This is why we recommend that you hire a professional tree removal company to get the job done. There are just too many aspects of the job that can go wrong and in our opinion it's simply not worth it. By using our company, we have all the necessary equipment to do the job safely and accurately. In our opinion, this is one of the most important reasons to outsource the work. Our lifts can get us high into the tree canopy to remove limbs and branches without unnecessary effort, it also ensures that our feet are properly planted on a firm setting reducing the chances of injury.

Tree trimming service in Skokie

We also offer tree trimming service in Skokie and the surrounding North Shore suburbs. Maybe you don't need your tree completely cut down but it's very common to have trees overgrown and in need of a healthy trim. Depending on the type of tree you have, they can grow extremely quickly, like Maple Trees, for example. The midwest receives a lot of rain during the spring months and this rain can really encourage the tree to grow several inches in just a few months. I was only referring to the trees height, the width of the canopy can grow even quicker and larger than the height. This gets very dangerous as tree branches can start to overgrow into a neighbors property creating a host of other potential issues.

If a tree on your property falls onto your neighbors property causing bodily injury or property damage, you could be held personally liable and could face a host of financial problems down the road. Just like in most cases, it's better to be proactive with your trees than to take the problem head on after the fact. With our tree trimming service, we'll safely cut down as much of the tree as possible while keeping it strong and healthy, but also allowing space for the tree to continue growing. Just as if we were removing and taking down a tree, we would take the proper precautions to ensure that no damage is caused in the process. Again, planning and preparing is the most critical step in the entire process. If you'd like us to take a look at your trees and provide a professional opinion, feel free to reach out and we'd be happy to assist.

Cabling and Bracing Service in Skokie

Sometimes the appearance of a tree can be very deceptive. Trees in the midwest are prone to splitting down the trunk for a variety of reasons. Most often this is asymmetric and irregular growth of the tree limbs. The extra weight from the limbs causes gradual "tearing" of the limb from the main tree trunk. Eventually the tear can get so bad that it becomes irreparable and the tree limb has to get cut down or the entire tree has to be removed. The splitting can also be caused by forces of nature such as wind storms, heavy snowfall, or even a lightning strike.

If the splitting is caught in time, and it hasn't caused too much damage, the tree can be saved. Cabling and bracing is a process whereby the tree is encouraged to have symmetrical growth through strategic prunning and using cables to tie the tree back together. Eventually, the tree will naturally "fuse" the tree trunk back to the limb and the tree will be able to grown on its own without any artificial or external support. This can take time but is a much better alternative to completely cutting down the tree.
