Tree Trimming – Much like your own yearly doctor’s check up, tree trimming is the most common tree care procedure, and is essential for promoting the longevity and health of your Boulder, CO trees. Proper pruning helps your tree develop strong structures and desirable forms, making it sturdier and more aesthetically appealing.

Tree Removal – There are many reasons why a tree might have to be removed, from a precarious lean due to bad root structure to the death of your tree as a whole. Our certified arborists can determine what course of action is best for your trees. If removal is recommended, we have trained and insured technicians with the experience and equipment to properly and safely remove your tree.

Stump Removal – Besides their lack of appeal, stumps are inconvenient for a number of reasons. They’re difficult to mow around, can sprout sporadic and unpredictable new growth, attract unpleasant insects such as wasps and hornets, and can be a tripping hazard. The best method of removing stumps is by grinding them down, and our arborists excel at tailoring each job to fit the needs of individual trees and yards.

Bracing and Cabling – Installing tree support systems such as braces or cables can help lower the risk of tree or branch failure, especially for young trees that are just getting used to the Front Range’s occasionally severe weather. However, due to a number of important safety and structural factors, bracing and cable installation should only be performed by trained and certified arborists. Additionally, any previous installation should be inspected every ten years to make sure it is still sound.

Tree Planting – When selecting a tree to plant, it’s important to consider that many tree varieties have life spans equal to or greater than that of humans. Our certified arborists can help you choose a species that will thrive in your plot of the Boulder, Colorado urban forest, fit in with your outdoor surroundings, and add aesthetic appeal to your environment.

Fire Mitigation – Residents in the mountains have the great opportunity to live where the urban forest meets the natural forest. But this living area brings with it unique landscaping needs and considerations, one of which is minimizing the risk of wildfire destruction. Our certified arborists can design and create a defensible space on your mountain property, increasing the chances that your home will survive a wildfire.
