Pruning and Trimming

Pruning is great for fruit trees, too. If you want a higher yield, fruit tree pruning is a must.

Tree Removal

We always prefer to restore a tree rather than remove it, but expert tree removal is sometimes the best course of action. We might suggest removing a tree if:

  • The tree’s roots are wrecking your foundation, plumbing, or driveway
  • The tree is located too close to power lines
  • The tree is heavily infested with pests or badly diseased (removal can prevent the spread of pests/disease to nearby trees)
  • The tree is dead and/or decaying

If we must remove a tree, we will haul it away, leaving nothing behind for you to clean up. Otherwise, we can also turn the tree into firewood or garden mulch for you.
Additionally, we offer stump grinding and stump removal. Once we’ve removed a stump, you can use that area of your yard to lay sod or plant a flower bed.

Tree Fertilization

If your tree’s leaves are yellowing or the tree hasn’t grown at all in months, it might need fertilization. Fertilization is also important for fruit trees, as they won’t produce a yield without proper nutrients.

We’ll give your tree a boost with organic soil amendments that are safe for your tree and gentle on the environment.

Firewood Delivery

Need to stock up on firewood for winter? We bring seasoned hardwood firewood right to your door. And if we cut down a tree on your property, we can cut it up and leave it onsite for you to use as firewood (just make sure to dry the wood for at least 6 months before burning).

Higher Ground Tree Care provides outstanding work. We had storm damage from a huge oak tree next to our two-story house. Matt responded to our request for a quote the same day I called. They were able to complete the job in two days with exceptional preparation, equipment, performance, and care. The knowledgeable friendly crew worked steadily and carefully, and we incurred zero damage to our property.

I highly recommend Higher Ground for any tree care need. I would rate them a 10 (out of 5), if I were able! Thank you to the entire crew; you completely eased our minds.
