Trees are pruned for many reasons. Proper pruning is important to maintain the health of your tree. Lee Tree Company has professional, trained employees that take pride in being able to do the right thing for the trees we work on. Proper pruning removes the hazard of dangerous, dead, decayed and diseased limbs. We use the industry standard pruning guide and make proper cuts to insure your tree's health. Other reasons for pruning are to keep clearance from structures and elevation for ground clearance and mowing.
Here are a few photos from last weeks wind storm. We have been working around the clock to safely remove trees that were damaged. Our guys have been showing off their rigging skills to make sure that no further damage is caused.
A significant tree on the Webhannett Golf Course split 8 feet in the last storm, we were asked to save it. We placed 2 through bolts in the trunk and a cable in the crown. All snugly back together again. It is nice to save them instead of removing them.
I hope that these lights will light the path of hope for a brighter future. We do the trees down town for the people of York. I want to thank the people of York for supporting the good will that we see and share during this Holiday Season.
