We now offer the latest technology in tree support systems-The Cobra Dynamic Support System.
The Cobra System is far less invasive than traditional nuts and bolts tree support systems and is specially designed for trees that are at high risk of infection and disease. The Cobra support system is used to reduce the potential for failure of co-dominant tree stems and reduce tipping of trees in need of guying support. The dynamism of the Cobra System lends itself well to the trees of the Tahoe Basin. Please email or call for a consultation. This system should only be installed by an experienced tree care company.
Defensible Space
With the new additions to our equipment fleet, Turner Tree Service continues to offer Tahoe's residents and businesses superior defensible space services. We are also capable of large scale thinning & forest fuels reduction projects. No job is too big!
Defensible space is an area around a structure where fuels and vegetation are treated, cleared or reduced to slow the spread of wildfire towards the structure. It also reduces the chance of a structure fire moving from the building to the surrounding forest. Defensible space provides room for firefighters to do their jobs. Your house is more likely to withstand a wildfire if grasses, brush, trees and other common forest fuels are managed to reduce a fire’s intensity. We provide Fire Department and TRPA approved defensible space treatments for your property.
Pruning
Certified arborists and trained professionals in the field understand how each tree species will react to different types of treatments. Most regular maintenance pruning can be done at any time of the year. Look to us for all your tree pruning needs year-round.
Cabling and Bracing
Involves the installation of high strength cables and / or threaded rods to increase structural integrity in trees.
Crown Clean-out
Is the selective removal of dead, diseased, detached and broken branches. This reduces the risk of branches falling from the tree and to reduce the movement of decay, insects and diseases from dead or dying branches into the rest of the tree.
Pruning to Raise
Is the selective removal of branches to provide vertical clearance. This is done to provide clearance for buildings, signs, vehicles, pedestrians and vistas.
Pruning to Reduce
Is the selective removal of branches and stems to decrease the height and / or spread of a tree. This is done to minimize risk of failure, reduce height of spread, utility line clearance, to clear vegetation from buildings or to improve appearance of a plant.
Hazardous Tree Removal
Hazardous trees are trees with significant structural defects that are likely to lead to failure; increasing the potential to fall or break and causing property damage, injuries and power outages. These trees may be leaning, or have suffered insect damage or decay, or have a number of other structural problems. Fall and winter windstorms will often bring hazardous trees down abruptly. Inspecting trees for problems, particularly before and after storms, can prevent many potential problems and property damage. Turner Tree Service can inspect your trees for these potential hazards, give you a professional, experienced assessment and safely perform the removal.
