What the Photos Show

Tree Removal

Most removals near a house come down in pieces, not in one fall. You'll see climbers roped in and cutting trunks in sections, cut pieces lowered on ropes, a crane lifting sections out over a home, and compact track loaders moving logs to the street. A before-and-after pair shows a backyard with its tree and the same yard cleaned up afterward.

Trimming and Pruning

Bucket trucks reach the tops of tall trees for trimming and reduction, while climbers handle limbs a truck can't get to. The set includes palms trimmed beside a backyard pool and in front yards, tall sequoias and shaped conifers, and the cleanup with a leaf blower that finishes a job.

Stump Grinding

A grinder works a backyard stump down below the soil, and a compact track loader pulls a front-yard stump and works the lawn afterward so the spot can be replanted or reseeded.

Storm Damage

These are the calls that come in after high winds: a tree down on a collapsed carport, a car hit by a falling tree, a trunk split through the middle, a tree uprooted with its root ball out of the ground, and storm branches being cleared from a street.

Crew and Equipment

The chip trucks, chipper, bucket truck and trailers that go out on every job, set up at the curb behind safety cones on residential streets around the Sacramento area.
