Your woods are not what they used to be. A storm flattened trees, pests killed a stand, or old clearing left a patch of brush and stumps. You want healthy woods again. Toms Tree Services offers forest restoration in Marquette to help them grow back.

When Do You Need Forest Restoration?

Forest restoration helps woods that were damaged by storms, pests, fire, or past clearing, and are not coming back well on their own.

Signs include large areas of down trees, patches of dead trees, thick invasive brush, bare or eroding ground, and few young trees coming up.

Work can include clearing down and dead trees, removing invasive brush, preparing ground, planting young trees, and protecting them while they grow.

Waiting lets brush and invasive plants take over, which makes it harder for young trees to grow. Down trees also add fire fuel and block access.

In the U.P., Lake Superior wind storms and heavy lake-effect snow and ice can knock down whole patches. Wet spring ground limits gear, and the short summer season means planting is often done in spring or fall.

We help homeowners and property owners in Marquette, Negaunee, Ishpeming, Gwinn and across Marquette County, and will travel farther for the right job.

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 your woods.

Then we come out and look. We walk the damaged area with you and look at what is left, what is coming back, and what is in the way. We talk about your goals and lay out the steps, like clearing, brush control, and planting.

After that, you get a free estimate. There is no trip fee for the visit and no pressure. You can start with part of the plan or all of it. If you go ahead, we set up the work with you and clean up when we finish.

How Much Does Forest Restoration Cost?

The cost depends on how big the area is, how much clearing is needed, the brush, how many trees to plant, ground conditions and access. The gear needed and distance also matter.

The estimate is free, and there is no trip fee. When we give you the estimate, we go over what each part of the work covers. That way you can pick what fits your trees and your budget, and change the plan later if your needs change.
