Our Crane Services

Large Tree Removal
For some trees, it’s impossible to remove the tree without a crane or without scaling the tree. Here at Able Tree Experts, those are the services that we’re proud to provide. We can access even the highest tops of trees to remove branches one by one, or to carefully cut sections of your tree, in order to remove the tree altogether.

Branch Removal
If you have branches on your property that have become problematic, we can remove them with our cranes. We remove tree branches that have become an obstruction on your property. We can also remove any branches that are unsightly or blocking the views that you cherish from your property. We can also remove branches that are growing near power lines, phone wires, and property lines.

Tree Trimming
If you simply need to trim your tree to improve its growth and aesthetic, we can tend to that too. We provide tree trimming services from the safety of our cranes. We can help you to improve the views throughout your property and remove any branches that have become a hazard. We recommend tree trimming every couple of years to encourage new growth and better tree health. as well as if you notice that you have any diseased, dying, or infected branches.

Crown Thinning
Crown thinning is a good idea if your tree is casting too much shade on your property, or if your tree is simply overgrown. We can thin the crown of your tree by lopping of branches that aren’t integral to the main structure of the tree. We’ll cut any minor branches that won’t affect the health of the tree, so that your tree looks great, without hindering tree and plant growth beneath the canopy of your tree.
Frequently Asked Questions on Crane Services
How long do crane projects take?
Most projects can be completed in a matter of hours. However, for larger trees or a multiple-tree removal project, we may take a couple of days to get it all done. If you’re curious about our schedule and the amount of time it will take to complete your crane project, simply reach out to us — we’d be happy to provide you with an estimate. We’ll also work around your schedule if you have anything that will get in the way of the project. We strive to be as efficient and convenient as possible!
Do you provide clean-up as well?
Absolutely! We don’t just lop off branches and leave them scattered throughout your landscape. We’ll clear away any debris that we create, and we’ll do our utmost to leave your property just as it was when we arrived (minus a branch or tree or two). We also reuse any wood that we remove from your property, turning it into either firewood or wood chips. You can request to keep the wood that we remove if you’d like!
Can you reach all tree heights?
We can reach the tops of most trees that you’ll find here in Michigan with our crane. We have a couple of trucks that are designed to take on tree removal and trimming of even the tallest trees, including a 75-foot aerial truck and a 100-foot boom truck. These cranes make quick, yet safe work of even the largest trees. Plus, if we can’t get to your tree from the bucket of one of our trucks, we can utilize climbing equipment and ropes to reach those most precarious branches on your property. When this is the case, we’ll scale up to these high branches, tie ourselves safely in, and tie off your branches, so that they can be lowered without falling and damaging your property.
