Most of your tree is green, but a few gray, bare limbs stick out of the crown. Every time the wind picks up, you wonder if one will come down on the car, the roof or someone in the yard. The tree is fine, but the dead wood is not. Toms Tree Services offers deadwooding in Marquette to clear dead limbs out of the tree.
When Do You Need Deadwooding?
Deadwooding is pruning that removes dead, dying, broken and hanging limbs from a living tree. The goal is safety and a cleaner look, not changing the tree's size.
Watch for bare limbs in summer, bark peeling off branches, mushrooms on limbs, broken branches hung up in the crown, and twigs piling up under the tree.
Dead limbs get more brittle each year. They can fall with no warning, even on a calm day. Waiting means more risk to people, roofs, cars and power lines.
In the U.P., heavy lake-effect snow and ice break limbs, and Lake Superior wind storms leave broken pieces hung in the crown. Spring and fall are good times to check.
A lot of dead wood can also be a sign the tree is in trouble. If we see that, we will tell you. Sometimes more care or removal makes more sense.
We do deadwooding for homeowners and property owners in Marquette, Negaunee, Ishpeming, Gwinn and across Marquette County.
How the Job Works, Step by Step
It starts with you. Call 906-236-9567 or send the form with your name, phone number and address. Lucas will call you back to set a time to look at the tree.
Then we come out and look at the job. We look through the crown for dead, broken and hanging limbs, and check what is under them. We plan how to reach each limb, by climbing or with gear, and how to lower pieces so they do not hit anything.
After that, you get a free estimate. There is no trip fee for the visit and no pressure to say yes. If you want to go ahead, we set up the work with you. When we finish, we clean up the branches.
How Much Does Deadwooding Cost?
The cost depends on tree size, how much dead wood there is, how high it is, and what is under it. Access, climbing work, the gear needed, distance, and cleanup also matter.
The estimate is free, and there is no trip fee. When we give you the estimate, we go over what it covers, such as hauling the branches away or chipping them. That way you can pick what fits your needs and budget.
