When property owners are building near Lookout Mountain or putting up a new garage on the north side of town, they need a clear slate without damaging the surrounding soil or a neighbor's property.
Summit Tree Service starts by walking the property with the property owner to flag the trees they want to keep—like those old ponderosa pines that give Spearfish its charm—and mark everything else for removal. Our crew uses heavy equipment to safely fell larger trees, clear out thick buckthorn and brush, and grind down the remaining root systems so the earth is ready for grading.
