Tree Removal

​

Tree removal in most residential landscapes present challenges. Trees in neighborhoods often are surrounded by other valuable plantings or structures. Tree removal, especially for large trees, require careful planning and execution by highly trained personnel. This is to ensure your safety and the protection of your home and surrounding property.  A standard tree removal includes taking down a tree, cutting all wood into logs, and cutting the stumps to the requested height.  Wood is then stacked at or near the base of the tree. We can also provide stump removal and wood disposal services.

Fire Breaks

​

At Rugged Cross Tree Service, we work together with local fire departments to protect homes. Idaho Department of Forestry recommends a minimum of 100 feet of clearing from your home.  We provide our costumers with the knowledge of the best way to reduce brush fuel and establish fire resistant plants.
