Roles of Certified Arborists and Tree Surgeons
Certified arborists have specialized knowledge about tree biology and care techniques. They've completed extensive training and passed certification exams that prove their expertise in tree health and maintenance. Tree surgeons focus on the physical care of trees, specializing in pruning, removal, and structural support. They have the skills to safely work at heights and handle heavy limbs.
At Elite Crew Tree Service, our team includes both certified arborists and experienced tree surgeons. This combination ensures your trees receive the best possible care. When you hire certified professionals, you benefit from their knowledge of local tree species and regional growing conditions. They understand which trees thrive in your area and how to address specific challenges they face.
The Difference Between Trimming and Pruning
Many homeowners use these terms interchangeably, but they serve different purposes. Tree trimming focuses primarily on aesthetics, removing overgrown branches to maintain a neat appearance and desired shape. We perform trimming to enhance your property's curb appeal and manage basic growth issues.
Pruning, however, is more about tree health and safety. We target dead, diseased, or structurally weak branches that could pose hazards during storms. Proper pruning techniques promote air circulation and sunlight penetration through the canopy, reducing disease risks.
Our certified arborists understand tree biology and make precise cuts that encourage healing rather than causing stress to your trees. We always use sterilized tools to prevent spreading diseases between trees during maintenance.
Hazardous Tree Removal
We specialize in removing trees that pose risks to your property. Dead, diseased, or storm-damaged trees can fall unexpectedly, causing significant damage to homes, vehicles, and other structures. Our team conducts thorough assessments to identify potential hazards before they become emergencies.
We're fully equipped to handle trees near power lines, buildings, or in tight spaces. Our climbers are trained to dismantle trees section by section when necessary, ensuring controlled removal without damage to surrounding areas.
For severely leaning trees or those with extensive decay, we implement strategic rigging techniques to guide falling sections safely to the ground. We always secure the work area before beginning any hazardous removal to protect your property and our workers.
Stump Grinding and Removal
After tree removal, stumps can remain as unsightly obstacles in your landscape. We offer complete stump removal services to restore your yard's appearance and usability. Our powerful stump grinders can reduce stumps to wood chips several inches below ground level.
For complete removal, we extract the entire stump along with major root systems. This prevents regrowth and eliminates potential pest habitats. The resulting hole can be filled with soil, allowing you to replant or reseed the area.
We can handle stumps of any size, from small ornamental trees to massive old-growth specimens. The wood chips produced during grinding can be removed or repurposed as mulch for your garden beds if you prefer.
Cutting Techniques and Safety
We employ advanced cutting techniques that prioritize safety and precision. Our arborists are trained in directional felling, which allows us to control exactly where a tree lands during removal. For trees in confined spaces, we use sectional dismantling, removing the tree piece by piece.
All our crew members wear appropriate safety gear including helmets, eye protection, and cut-resistant clothing. We use modern equipment including high-quality chainsaws with safety features and regular maintenance schedules to prevent accidents.
Before any cutting begins, we establish clear drop zones and communication protocols. We never compromise on safety and follow industry best practices and OSHA guidelines for all removal operations. Our insurance coverage provides additional peace of mind during complex tree removal projects.
