Pruning
There are different reasons for pruning trees and different pruning techniques utilized.
Tree Removal
Wolf Tree Specialists are properly trained to efficiently and safely remove your tree(s).
Stump Removal
In time most stumps will rot away, but it can take many years for a stump to disappear.
Cables & Supports
Nature isn’t perfect, and some tree structures or branch attachments can be susceptible to failure.
Pruning
Pruning is the best thing you can do for your tree. However, it can also be the worst if done incorrectly. For example, a chainsaw in the wrong hands can quickly destroy a mature tree. Therefore, we employ arborists with formal education in tree care. As a result, you can rest assured that we will treat your trees with respect.
Wolf Tree Specialists’ arborists have been trained to recognize that trees deserve great respect. Removing the wrong branch is often irreversible. Branches cannot be put back on the tree. For this reason, Wolf Tree Specialists’ arborists begin their career with a formal education in tree care. Extensive training and many years of experience assure you that your trees will be treated right.
Formative Pruning
Pruning is performed to help a young growing tree develop properly, encouraging well-formed, strong branches and removing defective or competing branches that might interfere with the growth of branches with better form. Larger, more mature trees might contain dead branches that should be removed to reduce hazard conditions.
Hazard Pruning
Hazard pruning removes dangerous branches located over buildings, walkways, and streets. Specifically, this process prevents property damage and bodily injury from falling debris. Although all trees pose some risk, proper pruning minimizes these dangers.
Furthermore, safety is a major concern for outdoor activities like picnicking or hiking. Because weather plays a huge role in tree failures, we recommend regular inspections. In addition, dead or weak branches can fall even on calm days. Therefore, regular hazard pruning makes your property much safer for everyone.
Maintenance & Preservation Pruning
Maintenance pruning involves regularly removing dead or defective branches. Specifically, this service keeps your mature trees healthy and safe. Because every tree is different, we adjust our pruning based on your specific needs. Furthermore, regular care prevents branches from interfering with sidewalks or utility wires.
Typically, mature trees require pruning every four or five years. However, ornamental or fruit-bearing trees may need attention every year. By pruning regularly, you help your tree conserve vital energy. As a result, your trees can better survive droughts, pests, and diseases. Overall, a well-pruned tree looks better and lives much longer.

Tree Removal
Trees are removed for several important reasons. Specifically, you should remove a tree when it becomes a hazard or no longer adds value to your property. Because tree removal is dangerous work, only trained experts should perform the job. Furthermore, our team uses the right equipment to work efficiently and safely.
In addition, ensure your tree company carries proper insurance. This protects you from liability if a worker is injured on your property. Therefore, you must choose wisely when companies offer low prices. Ultimately, a small initial saving might cost you much more in the long run.
From chainsaws and brush chippers to large cranes and bucket trucks, our technicians are properly trained and always prioritize safety. Our technicians regularly attend seminars to stay up to date on the latest technology, including rigging techniques, climbing methods, and the use of chainsaws and chippers.

Stump Removal
Tree stumps can be removed quickly and efficiently. Most often, stumps in visible areas of a landscape should be removed. Stumps in rear yard areas or along the edge of a woodland might not be so offensive in the landscape. In time, most stumps will rot away, but it can take many years for a stump to disappear.
Any Stump, Any Size
Wolf Tree Specialists employs small, portable stump grinders for hard-to-reach stumps in back yards, and larger towed models that can quickly turn accessible stumps into mulch. There is no need to live with an ugly stump in your yard when affordable alternatives are available.
Don’t live with stumps.
Specifically, we can quickly and efficiently remove any tree stump on your property. Because we use professional grinding equipment, we leave your yard ready for new growth. Therefore, you should contact us today to schedule your service. In addition, our team ensures your landscape looks its absolute best.
Cables & Support Systems
Nature does a good job of growing trees to be self-supporting, strong, and well-formed. But nature isn’t perfect, and some tree structures or branch attachments can be susceptible to failure. In these special circumstances, Wolf Tree Specialists technicians will select and install the appropriate support system to help prevent damage and potential tree destruction.
When Removal Isn’t Necessary
Although there are no guarantees that a storm or unforeseen circumstance will not cause a failure, installing a cable or specially designed supporting hardware will reduce the likelihood of a branch or trunk failure. Support systems can allow the tree owner to enjoy a tree for years into the future that might otherwise have to be removed.
Keep your trees standing tall.
Please feel free to contact us if you have questions about whether a tree on your property should be removed or can be supported to extend its life. A technician will be happy to visit with you, evaluate your trees, and make recommendations based on your needs.
