How big is Shadywood?

Will you clean the work site when you are done?
Absolutely! We pride ourselves on our thorough cleanup after we complete your treework. We have positive customer feedback that lets us know we are doing a good job. We haul away everything, and rake up all debris, unless you specify otherwise.
When should I have my trees trimmed?
The best time to trim any tree is when it is dormant, which generally means during the winter months. We frequently trim trees in the winter, especially elms, fruit trees, oaks, and others that have seasonal trimming restrictions. Most trees can successfully be trimmed during other seasons as well. We will advise you of any constraints when we write your estimate.
In the winter, how can you tell a dead tree from a living tree?
Buds form in the fall and appear on live branches in the winter. However, no buds will appear on dead branches. Careful attention tells us all we need to know.
When you do stump grinding, how do you avoid hitting any underground installations?
We contact Gopher State before we begin any stump grinding or landscape project. We make sure we have the locations of all critical lines so that there are no unexpected surprises.
What kind of references do you have?
We are on the city's approved list in all the suburbs in our service area. And you can ask us for client references; we'll happily provide them.
