Tree Removal in Dearborn Heights

Dearborn Heights sits between Dearborn and Livonia, developed heavily in the 1950s through 1970s as auto workers and their families sought affordable homes close to Ford's massive Dearborn complex. The housing is solid brick ranch and colonial, with lots that vary from small to mid-size. There's a large Arab-American community here, and it's one of the most densely populated cities in Wayne County. Trees on these lots are mature and in many cases have been growing unchecked since the homes were built.

A dead or leaning tree in Livonia does not stay put forever. The heavy clay soil in this part of Wayne County holds water after every rain, and that wet ground loosens root systems faster than most people expect. Houses in Rosedale Gardens and the older sections off Five Mile Road sit close together, so a tree that falls the wrong way can take out a fence, a car, or a roof section in seconds.

We look at the tree in person before we quote anything — the lean, the root zone, what is around it on all sides. Then we drop it in sections if there is no clear fall path, or take it in one cut if there is room, and we haul the wood and chips away the same day we work.
