Tree Removal
Our certified arborists safely remove hazardous or diseased trees using specialized equipment and techniques. We assess each tree's condition to determine the optimal removal method, minimizing risks to property and people. Post-removal, we provide stump grinding and site restoration services to ensure a clean, safe landscape.
Organic Root Feeding
This service injects organic nutrients and mycorrhizal fungi directly into tree roots to enhance growth and resilience. By restoring depleted soil biology, we improve water absorption and nutrient uptake, promoting long-term tree health without synthetic chemicals.
Cabling and Bracing
We install steel cables and braces to reinforce weak branches and prevent structural failure. This technique preserves valuable trees by redistributing stress and preventing limb loss during storms or high winds.
Tick and Mosquito Control
Our organic spray programs use natural oils and biological agents to control ticks and mosquitoes in outdoor spaces. Treatments target pests at all life stages while maintaining safety for people, pets, and beneficial insects.
Resistograph Services
Using advanced drilling technology, we detect internal decay and structural weaknesses in trees. This non-invasive method measures resistance levels to identify hollow areas, helping determine if removal or treatment is necessary.

Report
I called three times for an estimate over two weeks with no response. The third time I called the woman, Jody(?), said I told her never mind on the second call. I know for fact I didn't say this but she wanted to rudely argue the point at which point I hung up. The old saying the customer is always right was lost on her and you should never be adversarial with a customer. How rude.

Report
I hired O'kula for the time this month and I couldn't be more pleased with the work done. There was a huge limb which had fallen over the shed and the rest of the large oak was dead and needed to be removed. I had gotten a couple of estimates. Theirs was in the middle and I thought fair. Don and his crew were most skilled and professional. I was lucky enough to have a front row seat on my deck as the men worked in perfect, efficient coordination. Besides the tree removal, they trimmed dead branches from nearby trees and pruned the arborvitae hedge. The clean up was just as impressive
