Tree Services
At Sox and Freeman, we go to great lengths to make sure we are ready for anything. We offer a wide range of services, covering all your tree care needs.
Tree Care
Removal
When the time comes to remove a tree, we have what it takes to handle the job.
We have the best staff and equipment, and the safety record to back it up.
We can remove your tree with virtually no disturbance to the surrounding landscape.
Pruning
One of the most damaging things done to trees is over pruning.
Our arborists know exactly what to prune and how much to prune. Don't take chances,
let Sox and Freeman maximize the benefit from pruning your trees. Are limbs hitting your car,
or rubbing your roof? Are dead limbs falling onto your yard? Pruning is the solution.
Stump Grinding
Make unsightly tree stumps a memory. We can grind stumps to below soil level.
Cabling Systems
Proper pruning can shorten, lighten or thin hazardous branches, yet in some cases, this may be
inadequate to keep certain limbs or trees safe. In such instances, cabling and bracing may be required
to reduce stress. Cabling involves the attachment of a flexible, extra high strength steel cable, along
with forged lag bolts and pre-formed cable grips between branches to limit excessive limb motion and to
reduce stress on a crotch or branches. Sometimes trees are cabled together for support. Bracing uses
bolts or threaded rods to rigidly secure weak or split crotches, unite split trunks or branches and hold
rubbing limbs together.
Lightning Protection
Tree lightning protection works on the same principle as a lightning protection system on a building.
A tree lightning protection system does not attract lightning nor does it prevent a lightning strike from occurring.
A tree system intercepts the lightning bolt between the cloud and the earth and harmlessly conducts it to ground
without damage to the tree. Lightning protection is a service for trees that you value most for historical or
sentimental reasons or trees near a valuable building or residence that add value to your property.
