With over 50 years combined experience in the industry, my partner and I are a great team. Our focus is getting the job done safely and efficiently to customer satisfaction. Tree Trimming and Removal Services

"Danne and Corey were personable, excellent professionals during the entire process, from the estimate to completing the service. Danne came by on a Saturday morning, did his inspection of the trees to be removed and stump grounded, provided a verbal quote, which Corey sent over the formal quote shortly thereafter. After reviewing the several quotes with my partner, we decided on ExTREEme Tree Experts for the reasonable price and thorough communication on the details and overall process. We had about 8 trees and several bushes on a 30° slope, with 2 of the trees over 40ft. Day 1, they set up their wood chipper and began clearing the trees one by one. By the 2nd day, there were 2 trees left, which Danne handled swiftly and began grinding down the stumps. It was a huge undertaking, but Danne and his team did an excellent job clearing all the trees and bushes, although it did take an additional morning to get the remaining stumps. There were a couple stumps left ungrounded, as their location made them inaccessible with the grinder they had, which Danne explained and reduced the price for the service. I've already recommended them to family members who need their services and would definitely hire them again if we ever move to another place with trees that need removal."

"The service they did was mediocre at best and they are not very careful. Had them cut trees down by my house and they decided to fell 1 of them right along the side of my house instead away from it and hit my roof and broke a window when I live in the forest and there was plenty of clear area to direct it towards. They also crushed my garden and fencing in this act. It has been 2+ months and they STILL have not fixed what they have broken and getting them to respond is next to impossible. So if they can't do any damage to ANYTHING on your property I would say maybe give them a chance but avoid them completely if there is a risk of anything being hit, no matter what the value because they won't fix what they break and will leave you for 2 months in the snow without a freaking window and your chimney crushed!!!!"

Trees and shrubs trimmings or removals FAQs

Professionals remove shrubs by first cutting back the branches using tools like pruning shears or chainsaws for thicker stems. They then cut the base close to the ground and dig around the root system to remove the roots completely, preventing regrowth. Finally, they’ll ensure proper disposal of branches and debris while complying with local regulations.

A bush stump will regrow if any portion of its root system remains. When even a small section of roots is left behind, new shoots emerge and regenerate the bush with leggy, spreading growth. Working with a professional landscaper ensures the complete removal of the stump and all roots, which is essential to prevent any regrowth, ensuring that the area remains clear and maintenance is minimized.
