Tree Removal

Not just anyone can remove a tree. It takes the help of someone with the proper training to safely and effectively take care of your service needs. We have invested in the right type of equipment and workforce to remove any tree. For the services we offer in Mesquite, you get certain advantages, including saving time and money. Tree removal done without the right tools and personnel will take much more money and time than you had initially planned. You are also at risk of damages considering the potential for injury. There is no insurance available for Do-it-yourself projects. On the other hand, we ensure our staff and your property in the event of any incident during the removal and care services. 

Unwanted trees can be an eyesore as well, causing a reduction in the property prices considering they do not do anything for the curbside appeal. It is essential to make the landscape appear much neater and cleaner by eliminating those trees which do not serve any purpose on your property. We are also the best bet when it comes to this because our experts can tell us how to approach the problem. We have the right resources in the form of state-of-the-art equipment to remove the trees without any muss or fuss adequately. Our team also has several years of experience with significant training in tree maintenance and removal. If you want to be sure that the entire tree will be removed at once, then allow us to handle the job for you.

Tree Trimming & Pruning

If you want to know to make sure that your tree remains safe and healthy, allow us to trim and prune it for you routinely. These are the things that will not only help to make your trees look their best, but that will also help in keeping them safe and healthy. Our team performs a wide variety of tree trimming services as per your budget and preference. For example, there is crown thinning. That means removing those weak branches close to the canopy so air and light can be better distributed to other parts of the tree. We also do crown lifting, which would be cutting off the crown's lower branches to reduce the weight of the bigger limbs of the tree. Crown lifting is not done for every tree, and that is why you need our assistance in these matters. Crown lifting tends to negatively affect those fully grown trees because the bigger tree branches will have larger wounds. Pollarding is an option as well, entailing the removal of branches and remaining with a structure for the other branch network of the main stem. This is also done when the tree is young and at regular intervals during the tree's lifespan. These are just some of the trimming packages we provide, and they have been perfected by the training and experience from serving our local community. Our process is relatively simple, and it allows us to effectively and safely trim and prune your trees. It doesn't matter the size or type of tree that you have.

Shrub and Bush

Trimming & Pruning

If you have a beautifully landscaped lawn, but your shrub and bush are not being trimmed or pruned, it will adversely affect the appearance of the rest of your landscaping. If you do not prune the plants, the diseased parts will spread to the rest of the shrubbery and end in problems you had not previously considered. Pruning and trimming allow for flowering and new growth. They also maintain the plants in the garden at sizes you would easily control. Pruning and trimming of shrubs in your yard have to be done a certain way and at particular times, which we can guide you through.

Since we live in an area with distinct winters, it is a great time to prune the shrubs when the leaves start to fall and growth is dormant. Without the leaves, we can easily see the shrub's branching structure, and it is clear which should be cut. That is not to say you cannot do pruning and trimming at any other time of the year if necessary. Our recommendation, though, would be to have us do it in late winter or early spring so you can control the growth spurt that will come afterwards. 

We also prune according to the blooming schedules and the particular species. For hedges, the rule of thumb is to keep the top slightly smaller than the bottom branches, so the latter has sufficient access to sunlight. Many perennial shrubs may be trimmed into hedges, though the flowering shrubs, including forsythia, have fewer flowers trimmed into a hedge. 

Our service package entails different types of pruning depending on your preferences. There is thinning, which entails removing the branches at the bottom of the shrubs, alongside the trunk. It makes sure the shrub maintains form while also encouraging new growths. The goal is to remove the oldest and heaviest canes which are at the ground level. We also do reduction, which is trimming back the shrub's volume, especially for safety reasons. It could be encroaching on the walkways or the house, so this is a more functional pruning than for beautification. Topping is a more drastic approach, and we do not usually recommend it, but it is possible as well. Most of the branches down to the trunk are removed with this method. It is most often for training young shrubs, so they grow in a particular way. Trimming and pruning are easy for us, as this is something that we do regularly. We have become experts at trimming and pruning, which is evident when you see our work. Contact us for routine shrub and bush trimming and pruning.

Stump Grinding & Removal

If you have had a tree removed and there is still a stump, then give us a call and let us remove it for you. Many people don't know what to do with their leftover stumps after the tree has been cut down. If the yard has more than one stump, it becomes a hazard not only because of the tripping but also from the potential health problems posed. Tree stump grinding and removal is something you should consider because of several reasons. It is excellent for environmental reasons, for example. Suppose you go the chemical route and dissolve the stump. In that case, it can affect the other shrubbery and trees negatively because these agents easily leach into the soil and cause significant issues. On the other hand, if you leave it to rot, you stand the chance of termites and other pests making the stump a habitat, and these will also invade other vulnerable areas in the yard. 

Using the tree stump grinding equipment is going to help with stumps of all shapes and sizes. It will reduce them to pieces as well without significant disturbance to the environment as well. You will not have to worry about pests or chemicals because the remnants will dissolve without much fuss. It is also a means of instantly mulching the property. After we help you grind the stumps, you will be left with enough wood chippings to mulch on the rest of your property. It is especially great for the shrubs, considering it provides a nutritious substrate for growth if there are young trees around. You can add compost for added effect. The process of decomposition will also improve the soil's condition, helping your other plants grow. Stump grinding is also less invasive because the roots are generally left in the ground since you do not have to fill gaping holes which come with stump removal. You give the yard a neat and clean slate to start from again. If there are new project ideas for landscaping, this would be the time to do it. In addition to the aesthetics, you also get to improve the value of the property. Stumps, by nature, tend to be unsightly, so they do not do much for the overall curb appeal. 

It is not to discourage you from the other option of stump removal, which is still a viable approach. It would involve the complete removal of the tree stump and the roots from the ground. Again, this is quite a labor and resource-intensive, so you would need a team that knows what they are doing, like Mesquite Tree Pros. You can use the disturbed ground to replant another tree, though, so this can quickly become positive after the job is done. There is also no chance of the stump growing back after removal, and it would reduce the chance of fungal infection left over the roots. It is invasive, though, and less economical, but it all depends on what you want to do with the property thereafter. We have all the necessary equipment needed to effectively take care of your service needs, big or small. When you want to have your stump removed and ground, allow us to help you with this. We prove effective in all that we do.

Tree Cabling & Bracing

If you have a diseased tree, then it may be unstable. If our specialist team has determined that this is the case, you may want to go ahead with cabling and bracing to secure the tree while attempting to get it to a healthy state. Cabling is done on the higher branches, while bracing is done lower and closer to the trunk. At times, depending on the tree's status, both may need to be done on the trees. Tree cabling is one of the most effective ways of restoring your tree to its former status. The team knows to look out for certain clues which show that you need cabling and bracing. If your tree has split trunks, this is a dead giveaway that you need cabling. The trees with narrow angles of branch attachments can develop vertical splits, which often happen because of structural stress of damage from a storm. 

When you see these splits, immediate attention should be given so you can protect your tree from falling apart. Weakened branches can easily fall on the ground or the roofing of your home, thereby destroying property. In the worst-case scenario, your tree may fall on you or one of your family members and cause injury. Avoid this by calling us up so you can avoid the liability before thinking about hospital bills. 

Deadwood is also a sign that you may need to either consider bracing or cabling on the property. The reason is deadwood is eventually going to crash on the ground. If there is any on the tree, it is advisable to call the professionals to come and help remove it immediately. Our team is insured and careful with the available equipment, such as ladders, so you would be less worried about people falling and getting injured trying to remove deadwood on branches. Cracks of any sort and structural weaknesses are great reasons why you would need cabling or bracing. There are certain cracks that cannot be sealed, and others are often beyond repair. However, it is hard to tell if you do not have as many years of experience in the business. That is why you need to hire a professional tree service platform to tell you how to proceed. 

The other thing is fungi which may be found between the wood and bark as a sign of cankers. These cankers may be cut off from nutrient supplies to the bark and the wood. When we arrive, we may check those sunken places of the tree to see if there are signs of rot because that will mean weakening of the branches, and it will eventually collapse on your property. Again these are not signs you can tell by yourself, but you need assistance which would come in the form of us. We are the premier tree maintenance and service company. If you want to be sure that the job is done right, then let us show you how it's done at Tree Service Pros of Mesquite.

Tree Health

Maintenance & Care

We have relentlessly studied every tree species native to Mesquite and have a wealth of knowledge on the health and maintenance of a variety of species. Having healthy trees on your property is important if you do not want to experience problems with limbs and branches falling off. We can give you some tips that will immensely help when it comes to protecting young trees. The first thing is to keep the lawn equipment such as the trimmers and mowers from the trees because they can significantly damage the trunk behind the bark. 

If that happens, it becomes easy for the trees to be afflicted by insects and mold. The trees also have to be shielded from chemical damage. If you are the type that frequently sprays harsh agents on the shrubbery, then this is something you may want to rethink your strategy for caring for the yard. Both pesticides and herbicides are comprehensive measures that do not leave much behind. In fact, it even burns growing tissue, so that would not be the best idea if you intend to keep trees and shrubbery healthy.

We also advise you to mulch often so that an organic protective layer is added on top of the soil. Grass clippings, straw and even bark chips are things you should consider for this job. While this is great for the newly planted trees and vegetation, mulch is also great for the older trees in your yard. It will protect the roots from the elements and prevent compaction. The mulch can be spread around the trees every few months for desirable results. Watering is also a no brainer. Just because the tree is a bit on in years does not mean the moisture requirements have reduced. Plan to water the tree regularly every month. Obviously, as the tree becomes bigger and the roots also increase in size. Small limbs won't cause much of a problem because of their relatively low weight. Though the heavy limbs should happen to fall, then this could be a problem. For these larger issues, though, allow us to come and take care of it because we have the right team of personnel who should be able to do it within no time. You will not have to put yourself at risk or ask amateurs to take care of it without the proper knowledge or tools. We would, however, encourage you to be aware of your surroundings. When you are planning a construction, make sure that all of the trees are protected. The project should in no way interfere with the long term health of your trees because it is something you will be paying for quite some time.
