Tree Services in Butte County, California
Removal of hazard trees, canopy thinning, limbing up, and clearing branches away from roofs, chimneys and power lines.
Why this work matters
A tree overhanging the roof drops needles into gutters all year and can carry fire directly onto the house, and dead or beetle-killed trees near a structure are a frequent reason insurers decline to renew. Limbing up removes the ladder fuels that let a grass fire climb into the canopy, which is what turns a manageable fire into a crown fire. In heavily wooded parts of the county this is often the first and largest job a homeowner takes on.
