When Tree Removal is the Right Call
Trees are constantly subjected to the whims of nature. A drought may strike one year only to be followed by harsh winter weather the next year. When all of these environmental stressors are taken together, trees can suffer from the cumulative stress. In addition to natural factors, human activity can stress trees by encroaching on their habitats or by being established on build sites. In many of these cases, the trees need to be removed.
Some of the signs that trees need to be removed are:
- Dieback of large sections of trees
- Hollow trunks evidenced by fungal growth or insect infestation
- Unstable canopies that risk toppling the tree
- Overgrowth on a construction site
- Trees growing too close to homes or power lines
Whatever the case, you need a tree service with a proven track record for safe tree removal. General Tree Service protects its workers as well as our customers by having all the necessary qualifications and insurance. For a truly hands-off, safe tree removal experience, schedule one of our teams today.

Reasons for Tree Pruning
Tree pruning is one of the practices that can make nearly any tree grow more vigorously. As trees grow, they can put out limbs and branches that rob the tree of efficient growth. Branches and limbs crowd out the sunlight and airflow from within the tree making it more susceptible to infection.
Additionally, dead limbs are weaknesses that insects and fungi will exploit. Tree pruning removes unnecessary growth and dead limbs to offer benefits like:
- Stronger branches
- More effective resource utilization
- Stronger blooming and fruiting
- More aesthetic shape
- Reduced likelihood that a tree will encroach
Trust your trees and shrubs to the trained professionals. Schedule General Tree Service for pruning today and unleash the potential of your trees.
Methods for Stump Removal
Whether General Tree Service removed your trees or not, stump removal is an important part of the process that requires specialized equipment. When our crews remove a tree they don’t consider the job finished until the stump is gone. Some of the reasons to remove a stump are:
- Stumps are ugly
- Stumps try to regrow
- Stumps take year to rot
- Stumps harbor fungus and termites
Stump grinding is the method of choice for the crews at General Tree Service. Stump grinding removes the stump below the level of the surrounding soil and allows an owner to replant the area immediately. Instead of mowing around stumps for years let General Tree Service grind your stumps away.
