Tree Removal & Stump Grinding
Safe & Professional Tree Removal Services
Removing a tree, especially a large, dead, or decaying one, is inherently dangerous and requires highly specialized skills. At Tree Pros, led by an ISA Certified Arborist with 15 years of climbing experience, we specialize in removing hazardous, dead, or unwanted trees safely and efficiently. We treat your property as if it were our own, ensuring a seamless, stress-free process from the first cut to the final cleanup.
Our 3-Step Tree Removal Process
Robert Burgund will visit your property to evaluate the tree's health, structural integrity, and proximity to hazards (like powerlines or your home). We'll formulate a safe extraction plan and provide a transparent quote.
Using specialized rigging, climbing techniques, or our crane, our expert team carefully dismantles the tree section by section, ensuring nothing falls unpredictably.
We chip the brush, haul away the heavy logs, and rake the work area. When we leave, the only sign we were there is the missing tree.
Crane-Assisted Tree Removal (Zero-Impact)
Not all trees can simply be felled into a yard. For trees located directly over houses, near powerlines, or in tight, inaccessible backyards, we utilize state-of-the-art crane-assisted removal. This advanced technique allows us to safely lift heavy sections of the tree straight up and over obstacles, resulting in a ‘zero-impact’ removal. Your home stays completely safe, and your landscaping remains untouched.
Local Highlight: We recently used our crane to safely extract a massive, decaying 70-foot Oak tree suspended directly over a glass sunroom in West Bloomfield, completing the job with zero damage to the property.
Complete Stump Grinding
A tree removal isn’t truly complete until the stump is gone. Leftover stumps are not only an eyesore but can become breeding grounds for carpenter ants, termites, fungi, and disease. Our high-powered stump grinders chew the stump down 4-6 inches below grade. This allows you to easily lay topsoil, plant grass, or install new hardscaping right over the area where the tree used to be.
Frequently Asked Questions About Tree Removal
Do I need a permit to remove a tree?
Permit requirements vary widely by municipality in Michigan. Cities like Troy, Birmingham, and Rochester Hills have specific tree preservation ordinances. As your local experts, we can advise you on the necessary steps and help you navigate the permit process before we begin.
