Tree Service in Short Hills, NJ

Large trees close to the house

Short Hills is known for generous lots and old, tall trees. Big oaks, tulip poplars and maples often stand within a few feet of the house, the garage or a stone wall.

That is where careful rigging matters. We lower wood in controlled pieces instead of dropping it, and we bring in our crane when a tree is too close to a structure to take down any other way.

Living next to South Mountain Reservation

Homes along the edge of South Mountain Reservation share a property line with a lot of forest. After high winds, that edge is where we most often see broken tops, hung-up limbs and trees leaning toward a yard.

We can assess the trees on your side of the line, remove deadwood, and take down anything that is a real threat to your home.

Pruning that keeps the property looking right

Many Short Hills owners want trees kept, not cut. Good pruning raises the canopy over the driveway, clears the roof and gutters, and opens up light for the lawn without leaving a tree lopsided.

• Crown thinning and deadwood removal
• Clearance over roofs, driveways and walks
• Limbs cleared back from service lines
• Stump grinding after a removal
