Mighty Oak Treeworks Tree service · Lancaster, PA

The work

Removal is the loudest job. It isn't the only one.

A prune is not a haircut; it is an edit. Cabling holds a splitting tree together, and stump grinding gives the lawn back. This is what the rest of the work looks like.

Pruning

from $250

Structural cuts, deadwood out, and light let back into the lawn. The tree keeps its shape and loses the weight it was carrying.

  • Dead, broken and crossing limbs taken out
  • Clearance over roof, drive and walkway
  • Crown thinned and lifted, never topped

Cabling & bracing

from $450

Two stems that wanted to split, held together with steel instead of a stump. Hardware set into the wood, cable tensioned, the crown left intact.

  • Steel cable set between co-dominant stems
  • Brace rod through a split or cracked union
  • Crown left whole, nothing taken down

Stump grinding

from $175

Ground below grade, chips raked out, soil back over the hole. The mower passes over the spot next spring.

  • Stump cut below grade
  • Chips raked out of the hole
  • Grindings and soil leveled off
