Tree Removal

While many Lake Country property owners think of tree removal as a last resort for dying or damaged trees, having a tree that has become damaged removed is often necessary. Trees that are old, failing or that have suffered damage due to disease or a storm can endanger people and property. Damaged, diseased and failing trees can also prevent the growth of healthy, young plants, which can further damage property values. As part of our comprehensive tree removal services, Merton homeowners can expect us to thoroughly discuss all aspects of tree removal, care and debris cleanup before we begin work. That way there are no surprises. For safe tree removal and tree service, Merton residents turn to A Cut Above. Contact us today to learn more.

Hazardous Tree Limb Removal

Are you considering hiring a side-job “expert” to remove hazardous tree limbs on your Lake Country property? If so, think again. Unless someone has extensive experience working with tree removal and caring for the many species of local trees, they are likely to underestimate how heavy the tree limbs can be. In fact, some types of trees can weigh nearly 90 lbs per cubic foot. This is why you should never trust inexperienced tree service providers with tree removal and hazardous tree limb removal. For safe, reliable and efficient tree service, Merton residents know to call A Cut Above Tree Service. We put your safety and your property first.

Stump Removal and Stump Grinding

If your otherwise lovely Lake Country property is being marred by the look of an ugly, old tree stump, call A Cut Above Tree Service to have it removed today. Old stumps left on property can become infested with insects, rodents and diseases — all of which put your property and home at risk. As part of our stump removal and stump grinding services, we grind out each stump to between 8 -14 inches below the grade. This ensures that stumps are not visible above ground level (so they won’t interfere with your landscaping). Also, we backfill all stumps with the debris and wood chips created during stump grinding. Backfilling makes the ground more stable and more resistant to pressure. As for any excess debris, you’re free to use it as coarse mulch or, for an additional fee, we can remove it for you. For high-quality tree service, Merton property owners should contact A Cut Above. We give Lake Country homeowners the safe, efficient tree services they’re looking for.

Tree Pruning / Tree Trimming

If you’re like most Lake Country homeowners, you’ve made an investment in your land and home. Now it’s time to protect your property investment with professional tree trimming and tree care. Proper, regular tree pruning helps promote tree health by encouraging root development, blooming and growth. Plus, it keeps your property looking its best.

When it comes to choosing a pruning and trimming tree service, Merton homeowners know to call A Cut Above Tree Service. Our tree experts are certified professionals who understand why, where and how trees are trimmed.

If you’re a Merton homeowner, then you or someone you know has probably needed emergency tree cleanup after one of our many rough storms. Lake Country weather can be severe, and it often damages trees. If just one of those damaged trees crashes down on your property, you’re going to want tree experts who thoroughly understand emergency tree cleanup and tree care. Otherwise, your not-so-bad situation could easily go from so-so to worse. For safe, efficient and reliable emergency tree service, Merton residents call A Cut Above Tree Service.

Wood Chips / Firewood / Chipping

Why waste valuable Lake Country wood when you can have it chipped and recycled into wood chips and firewood? In addition to our many other Merton tree services, we offer wood chipping services to create wood chips (for coarse mulching) and firewood logs. Because our wood chips are roughly processed, they are not really suitable for use as decorative mulch, but they do make great base mulches for use around tree bases, garden beds and shrubs. And if you’ve never used mulch before, you might want to start. Both inorganic and organic mulches can help retain moisture, fertilize soil and inhibit weed growth. For wood chipping, firewood and seasonal tree service, Merton residents turn to A Cut Above, where our first priority is you.
