Client’s Request for Upkeeping Their Yard
Over the winter, an anonymous homeowner called SoutheastTree in Marietta, GA, for professional tree felling services. They explained that a 25-foot Oak tree was nearing a shared fence, and, given a few more months, would push against it, causing hundreds of dollars worth of damages.
So, the repeat client wanted the team to remove the risk factor with an efficient tree extraction and turn the remains into firewood for their eco-friendly wood-burning heating system.
Taking Action With Residential Tree Removal
A three-man crew from SoutheastTree used climbers and bucket trucks to reach the towering tree’s peak to chop it down in increments, starting at the top. They also used skid steers with a bulldozer-like front to pile the debris in the corner for easier cleanup, allowing the professionals to complete the job in a mere five-hour visit.
After the emergency tree removal, a stump remained, acting as an eyesore and a tripping threat. So, the crew performed root excavation to uncover and chop up the thick and winding root system before pulling up the stump and applying their stump grinding services. They also chopped the trunk into logs and cleared limbs, twigs, and brush.
Job Completion To Absolute Client Satisfaction
The time-sensitive process of hazardous tree removal requires an immediate safe tree extraction, so the team didn’t waste time. The success of the planning process and response time helped the client keep their property safe, encouraging them to continue doing business with SoutheastTree in Marietta, GA.
