Whether you’re faced with a hazardous tree that’s putting people and property at risk, or you have a tree taking up space you’d rather put to some other use, it’s sometimes necessary to have a tree removed. In these situations, it’s critical that you partner with a team of tree-removal professionals who can complete the work safely, while providing the kind of service you deserve. That’s exactly what the Trimmed Up Trees team does, and we’d love to help provide the tree removal services you need.
Unfortunately, there are a lot of companies out there offering tree-removal services in the Central Illinois area that just don’t provide the kind of service — or bring the level of expertise to the table — that local residents and property managers expect. They may fail to show up on time, cut corners to finish quickly, and even put people and property in harm’s way.
But that’s not how we do things. Our team of tree-removal experts has been serving the Atwood-area community since 2013, while providing a level of care and skill that national brands and fly-by-night companies simply can’t match. This kind of dedication to excellence has helped us build a reputation for being the leading tree-removal service provider in our area.
From felling tiny fruit trees to dismantling 100-foot oaks with the help of cranes and bucket trucks, Trimmed Up Trees can handle all of your tree-removal needs. But a few of the most common services our customers need include the following:
The fastest and simplest tree removal technique possible, felling requires our professionals to make specific, strategically placed cuts near the base of a tree, allowing it to fall over in an identified target zone. But while simple, this method is typically only possible for trees that are still in good condition and located in open areas.
To carry out a climber-assisted removal, we’ll have one of our skilled arborists ascend the tree before removing it in small, manageable pieces. These pieces are then lowered to the ground carefully using specialized ropes and rigging systems to prevent injuries or property damage. Unfortunately, this method only works for trees that are safe to climb.
If a tree is located in an easily accessed area, we can often use an aerial lift (such as a bucket truck or articulated lift) to access the upper portions of a tree’s canopy more quickly than a climber could carry out the work. Like climber-assisted removals, the cut pieces are gently lowered to the ground to ensure the safety of people and property.
Sometimes trees are too brittle to climb, too high to reach with an aerial lift, or located in a tight spot that makes lowering cut sections difficult to do safely. In these kinds of cases, we’ll typically use a crane to access the top of the tree and carry out the entire removal process in an efficient and carefully controlled manner.
Storms and other kinds of severe weather events can cause severe damage to trees, occasionally causing branches (or even entire trees) to fall on homes, driveways, or commercial buildings. But our professionals can remove these dangerous trees and restore full, safe access to your property, no matter the time of day.
Many homeowners eventually find that a tree has fallen on their property, potentially limiting access to the area. Professional assistance is often needed during these times, as trees can shift or roll suddenly, which presents serious safety issues. But our team can handle these kinds of issues quickly and restore full access to the site.
Relatively few trees fall over without providing some clues that they were hazardous. So, it’s important for homeowners and property managers to familiarize themselves with some of the most common signs indicating that a tree may require removal.
Not all leaning trees are hazardous; some naturally lean in an attempt to reach more sunlight or in response to strong winds. But trees that begin leaning suddenly are at very high risk of failure.
Tree hollows — even relatively small ones — are often associated with significant internal decay. This may compromise the tree’s stability and even make it vulnerable to sudden breakage.
Mounding soil near the base of a tree is a very serious sign that indicates the tree’s roots are failing or the surrounding soil has lost its structural integrity, with both scenarios being extremely dangerous.
It’s always important to contact an arborist anytime you notice mushrooms, conks, or other fungal fruiting bodies growing on a tree or above the roots, as they often signal the presence of internal decay.
Unfortunately, trees that have already shed branches are often more likely to drop additional branches in the future. They may also be suffering from advanced internal decay and require removal.
Cracks indicate that a tree’s wood fibers are actively separating, which means the tree is at high risk of failure. This is especially true for cracks that are large enough to allow the tree to sway in the wind.
Premature leaf drop can be associated with relatively minor issues, such as drought stress. However, it can also be associated with diseases that’ll reduce the tree’s structural stability.
The progressive death of one or more branches in a tree’s canopy can indicate the presence of several different bacterial or fungal pathogens, which may put your tree at high risk of sudden failure.
You can’t take a cookie-cutter approach when removing trees. Every tree, property, and customer is different, which means every tree-removal job is a unique project that requires not only skill but experienced judgment to complete. That’s why we always take the time to analyze every location, evaluate every tree, and listen — really listen — to every customer’s desires before cranking up our chainsaws and getting to work.
While we treat every tree removal project as a unique situation, we’ve developed a consistent process that serves as a starting point from which we can make adjustments as needed. Over time, this process has proven to be quite effective for our customers and ensures that they receive the kind of service they deserve.
