“no spikes guarantee.” We reserve spikes for tree removal. Instead, we access the tree by setting a line high in a tree and then climbing up that line. In this manner, we can ensure that the tree’s health will not be compromised in any way.
Stump Grinding and Removal
Stump grinding is often a neglected component of the tree removal process. Our cadre of tree service equipment includes a powerful stump grinding machine that can handle most any stubborn stump – even in hard to reach areas.
Like so many other skiers, Ryan was lured westward to the Lake Tahoe / Truckee area in the fall of 1999. Shortly after his arrival, Ryan connected with a friend who had an extremely successful landscaping business in the area. “He suggested I start a defensible space business,” Ryan explains. “I had helped him with some tree cutting projects and he was impressed with my knowledge of trees and felling techniques.”
Tree Maintenance
There are many factors that drive up the cost of tree work. Because of the high-risk factor to people and property, insurance rates are the number one factor. Other things that factor in are the high cost of labor, equipment, maintenance, and supplies/fuel. At Alpen Tree Experts, we are not trying to be the lowest bidder. We may have more expensive bids than other companies, but we also offer our employees the most competitive pay and we take the extra time to take care of some of those smaller details that may not have been accounted for in the estimate.
