You already know which tree worries you. Maybe a big limb hangs over the bedroom, or the trunk has a crack, or the tree leans toward the garage. Knowing is not enough. You want something done. Toms Tree Services offers tree hazard mitigation in Marquette to lower that risk.
When Do You Need Tree Hazard Mitigation?
Hazard mitigation is the work that follows when a tree has a known problem. It can mean taking out dead or broken limbs, shortening long heavy limbs, reducing the crown, thinning to cut wind load, or removing the tree.
Call when a tree or limb could hit your home, garage, car, driveway, play area or wires. Common problems are cracks, decay, dead wood, a growing lean, and limbs hung up after a storm.
Do not put it off. A known problem does not get better on its own, and it tends to fail during the worst weather.
In the U.P., heavy lake-effect snow and ice load weak limbs, and Lake Superior wind storms bring them down. Doing the work in fall or early winter, before the heaviest snow, is common.
We pick the least work that lowers the risk. Sometimes that is a few cuts. Sometimes removal is the safe choice. We will talk it through with you.
We do hazard mitigation for homeowners and property owners in Marquette, Negaunee, Ishpeming, Gwinn and across Marquette County.
How the Job Works, Step by Step
If a tree is failing right now, call 906-236-9567 any time. Otherwise, send the form with your name, phone number and address. Lucas will call you back to set a time.
Then we come out and look. We check the problem, what is below it, and how to reach it. We explain the choices, from trimming to removal, and what each one does.
After that, you get a free estimate, with no trip fee and no pressure. If you go ahead, we rig and lower pieces with care so they do not hit your home, then clean up.
How Much Does Tree Hazard Mitigation Cost?
The cost depends on what work is needed, tree size, how close it is to buildings or lines, and access. Rigging, climbing or lift work, 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 cleanup, hauling, chipping, or leaving the wood for firewood. That way you can pick what fits your needs and budget.
