Leave Lot Clearing to the Professionals

Land and lot clearing is difficult work and not something you can handle yourself. A professional tree care company will make the job simpler for many reasons. Some of the reasons to leave this job to the pros include:

  • Dangerous work: Operating heavy machinery and removing trees is risky and can easily injure someone who isn’t experienced with the process.  

  • Assistance with permitting and regulations: A tree care company will understand the rules and permitting requirements in your area.

  • Access to powerful equipment: Tree care companies have access to the best equipment that makes the job easier and safer.

Arbor Masters is Committed to Protecting the Environment

Protecting our trees is vital, and too many companies are willing to remove far too many trees for what the project requires. We’ll work with you to create a plan that allows you to continue with your latest development while also protecting the environment.

We offer selective clearing that limits the disturbance to the natural environment. We’ll only remove the vegetation that is in the way of your project and create a balance between your new project and the already existing ecosystem.

I would highly recommend Arbor Masters to anyone needing work done. This is the 2nd time we have used them and we are completely satisfied."
