Tree Trimming

Proper trimming techniques ensure the health of your trees and safety of your property. Joe’s background as a Certified Arborist with the International Society of Arboriculture combined with his love of nature and the outdoors has equipped him to specialize in assessing what is best for your property and trees. Joe loves trees and enjoys preserving them whenever possible. He believes properly trimmed trees add value to your property.

Sometimes customers call us with a specific project in mind and just want an estimate for a certain tree to be trimmed. Other times customers call and just want an overall assessment of their trees and recommendations. Joe can give estimates for trimming either way and can also suggest a schedule for future work to avoid potential hazards or for treatment with organic fertilizers etc. as needed for the health of your trees. He isn’t a salesman and won’t try to oversell for his own benefit. Instead, he considers what the customer wants as well as what is best for the property and will make suggestions or give options so you can decide what you want done.

We have two bucket trucks with 65′ and 75′ reach and expert climbers who can climb trees as needed with ease. We hire only the best climbers who have expert rigging skills for the safety of your property. Trimming trees over houses or other obstructions is no problem for us.

Tree Removal

As a Certified Arborist, Joe can advise when removal might be necessary. If a tree is decline it can become a hazard, especially during storms. Joe is an expert at predicting where a tree is likely to fall and if it might endanger your house or other areas of your property.

Sometimes proper trimming will be enough to remediate the risk and sometimes removal of the entire tree might be the most cost effective long-term solution. Joe can advise customers and offer estimates both ways so you can make informed decisions.

We, here at Joyce Tree Service, have over 25 years of experience removing trees in hazardous situations such over roofs and sometimes in tight spaces. We have two bucket trucks and only employ expert climbers with advanced rigging skills to safely remove trees in hazardous situations.

There are also times when a tree has simply overgrown its space and might need removal if it was planted too close to a house or other trees. Sometimes trimming or tiering away from the house will be sufficient and other times removal might be best. There are also times when customers want to remove a tree for a constructions project. We can accommodate customers and offer advice and estimates for any tree removals needed.

Stump Grinding

Some customers choose to leave the stump cut low to the ground to save money. Bigger tree trunks require bigger saws, which would not allow them to be cut as low leaving a higher stump. In all cases, we would get the stump as low as the particular saws needed for the job would safely allow.

For those who want their stumps ground, we have two stump grinders in different sizes to access large or small stumps as needed.

For the cleanup we offer options depending upon customers needs. Stumps can be ground below surface level to allow for soil and grass seed to return the site to grass. Stumps can also be ground completely to allow for planting another tree. This isn’t always the best idea because …

There are several option for cleanup and prices will be given for each so the customer can decide how much they want done.

* the hole can be left as is, open, and the grindings left where they land so customers can clean them up. This, of course, would be the cheapest option and great for do-it-yourselfers who want to save money.
* We can rake the grindings back into the hole leaving them piled up over the area to decompose over time so the customer won’t have a hole in the yard, which could be hazardous.
*We can do all of the cleanup, which includes removal of the grindings by loading them into the truck and bringing in soil, seed, and hay or anything in between. We don’t upcharge for materials and would only be charging for our time based upon the estimate we provide

We can give price options for whatever you want within that range.
