Tree removal, clearing, trimming stump grinding, emergency calls, storm damage, pruning

"I called and spoke with Heather who was quite knowledgeable and she was able to help us out as we were buying a new property. Chris surveyed the area and made recommendations for things we had not noticed. We had the estimate within 24 hours which was very reasonable and decided to hire them. They actually came the next day. They went beyond our expectations. The crew did an awesome job and cleaned up everything. I would highly recommend this company. Prices are reasonable and you get just what you ask for."

Greater Heights Tree Care is owned and operated by David Baransky, who is a third generation tree expert. From a young age David knew his passion was tree care and obtained a degree in Herb and Tree Management from Paul Smith’s College. David began Greater Heights Tree Care with climbing gear handed down from his grandfather and is proud to have built a business that now has a fleet of trucks. Greater Heights Tree Care is an honest and local business striving to build long lasting relationships with all it’s customers.

"It was a pleasure working with Greater Heights. We called them about a group of 11 small trees needing removal, and got a call back promptly, with a representative assessing the situation and giving an estimate within a day. They gave a possible time frame of three weeks, and came in less than two weeks to do the job. The crew of six then had the entire job done in a little more than half an hour, including the grinding of all 11 stumps and an extremely thorough cleaning job afterwards. The teamwork was impressive to watch, as was the machinery they used to do the job. We were completely satisfied from start to finish, and would have no hesitation about calling them again."

Tree Service questions, answered by experts

Yes, you can hire professionals to move a tree. Arborists and tree transplanting companies specialize in this type of work and use equipment like hydraulic tree spades to safely extract and relocate trees with their root balls intact. Since tree moving is a complex process, especially for larger trees, it’s best left to experts who understand how to protect the tree’s health and ensure the safety of everyone involved.

It’s usually best to transplant a tree when it’s dormant. For some, the best option is transplanting during fall after the leaves have fallen—October or November. In other cases, it’s best to transplant before new growth begins in the spring, often around March. But avoid transplanting during winter because the soil is harder and colder, and the tree won’t have the same chance to acclimate. 

Professionals use assessments, strategic cuts, specialized equipment, and safety measures to ensure healthy growth or the safe removal of trees or shrubs.

Although it’s possible, heavy machinery like a crane is necessary for removing an entire tree stump and all. This procedure is extremely costly, time-consuming, and usually unnecessary, as there are plenty of convenient and affordable stump removal options. 

Your best bet, if you want to be sure to remove a tree and its stump efficiently, is to speak with a professional. They’ll be able to walk you through the entire process.

It’s not as common for Dutch elm disease to affect other types of trees, especially if the surrounding trees aren’t elms. However, it is possible for DED to spread to other trees, particularly in northern states, like Minnesota. In fact, it’s a good idea to use geography to identify wood and determine which types of trees are in your yard. 

Unfortunately, the complex and shallow root system of elm trees makes surrounding elm trees particularly vulnerable to DED. Early discovery is key!
