Shackleton Tree Service

Much of the tree service involves removals. This is part of urban forest management as some trees die or become hazardous. Many skills are used in concert with this service. Most of these skills preserve the property which surround the tree being removed. Safe and timely removals with conscientious care of the surrounding properties always ends with satisfaction in a job well done.

Trimming trees can sometimes be overwhelming to an apprentice arborist. There are hundreds if not thousands of branches to choose from. While trimming a tree there are many factors into why a branch should be cut. Safety, disease and wind load to name a few, but one factor always plays in.aesthetics.

The tree must look good. Blending the biological with the visual in a timely fashion is a skill developed over many years, and we often enjoy standing back to admire the craft and tree as one. Trees are living breathing organic architecture. They are complex, beautiful, and practical. We understand this and take pride in the ability to identify environmental stresses, inherent weakness, and pests within and around your tree.
