Tree Removal in Redford

Redford Township is a densely settled inner-ring suburb that shares a border with Detroit on the west side. It developed rapidly in the late 1940s and 1950s, and the housing is almost entirely modest brick ranches and bungalows from that era. The tree canopy is aging at the same rate as the houses, and many trees are now 60-70 years old and in need of serious attention. It's a community where a lot of the tree work involves cleaning up what decades of deferred maintenance has created.

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.
