Services
Tree Pruning
Professional tree pruning performed by ISA-certified arborists ensures proper crown thinning, raising, and reduction techniques. Our experts remove dead or diseased branches while maintaining tree health and structural integrity. Services follow strict ISA standards to promote optimal growth patterns and prevent property damage through strategic limb management.
Tree Removal
Safe tree removal for hazardous or damaged trees using specialized equipment and techniques. We handle diseased trees, storm-damaged specimens, and structures threatening property foundations. Our certified team prioritizes safety protocols to protect both your property and our crew during complex removal operations.
Stump Removal
Complete stump removal services eliminate unsightly remnants after tree cutting. Our modern grinding equipment efficiently removes stumps at appropriate depths to allow for replanting or landscaping. This service prevents potential tripping hazards and maintains yard aesthetics while following proper root system management practices.
Tree Cabling
Structural support installation for weak or heavy branches through professional cabling systems. This service extends tree lifespan by limiting limb movement and preventing breakage. Our arborists use industry-approved hardware and techniques to reinforce tree structure while maintaining natural growth patterns.
Fertilization
Deep root fertilization services enhance tree health through targeted nutrient delivery. Our specialists apply balanced fertilizers directly to root zones using specialized equipment. This service promotes stronger growth, improves disease resistance, and maintains vibrant foliage for urban trees facing environmental stressors.

Walt was responsive, informative, on time and competitively priced beyond belief. You almost cannot tell a tree was ever in the spot it was removed from. I would not hesitate to book him for any tree removal related job you need done.

Walt and his crew were very accommodating and responsive. moreover his price is very competitive. they trimmed 5 trees at my rental and when i saw that not enough was cut away for my liking because i wasnt able to be there the first time to tell them how much to cut, i asked them to come out a second time and he obliged my request with no problem. i would definitely recommend walt as he is very professional and willing to do all it takes to make a customer happy with the result.

Mr. Walt came out to our property a year ago himself to provide the estimate. Fair price and excellent work. If I need tree service again I will call WAUSON!

Wauson was very reasonably priced, but more importantly they 100% stand behind their work. I had them take care of 2 trees in serious need of pruning and one in particular was having wisteria growing up and across. 2 months after they were here, I sent an email saying that it probably is still a little too close, and they happily showed up the next Monday and took it back more to make sure it wouldn't happen in the future.
