Tree Climbing

edenadv — Fri, 04 Mar 2022 22:54:05 +0000

Have you ever seen an arborist climb up a 150 foot tree? Has the thought of doing that kind of climbing scared you a little inside? Well, though it isn’t for the faint of heart, tree climbing is one of our specialties. Our founder, Duncan Nicholson, very much enjoys climbing up your giant oaks and firs and seeing the world from that unique view.

Climbing trees is not for the faint of heart, and does require lots of proper precautions be taken. The proper climbing shoes, gloves, and gear, along with a tested and fit harness, are where the climb really begins – with proper preparation and precaution. The plan for what needs to be done once the tree is climbed is also something that gets fully laid out on the ground.

Once the plan and the proper safety measures are taken care of, though, it’s time to climb! Duncan and his team work together to ensure the climber (usually Duncan himself) makes it to the desired tree height safely. Pulleys are then used to give the climber the saw and other tools he might need to work on the tree – caution and care is what it is all about!

Making a cut 100 feet up on a tree is quite an exhilating feeling, honestly – doing work you love, far away from the ground and with a brand new view of the world. More pulleys can be used to make sure the cut limbs and/or trunk pieces make their way safely to the ground, in the direction opposite the climber’s position.

Often times, when a big cut is made high up on a tree like this, the tree will wobble rather violently in the air. It is then that the climber is in for the ride of his life! But it’s also then that all the prior steps in safety and precaution pay off, keeping the climber safely affixed to the tree as it finds its new balance point. Duncan will tell you, it’s a bit like a rollercoaster ride – exhilarating, but perhaps best when your feet are back on the ground.

Do you need tree climbing services at your home or business property? Duncan would love to come see what you have for him to climb! Reach out to us at 971-241-6241 to get started with Nicholson’s Tree Services today.

At Nicholson’s Tree Services, we offer a full range of services needed to keep your trees healthy and beautiful, as well as your entire property safe and manageable. With recent investments in major machinery, we’re a very modern company which is fully capable of serving you as needed.

See below for some of our most popular and requested services. If you need something that isn’t listed here, please just reach out and ask us about it, and we’ll be glad to help.

Tree Pruning

We properly prune trees to the highest standards (ANSI A300) to be sure we leave nothing behind but an aesthetically pleasing healthy tree. Whether lifting the canopy for clearance, removing deadwood or defects for safety or doing crown reductions for view clearance where and how cuts are made are important to your tree’s future health. Let us explain the best practices for pruning to you during a free estimate.

Tree Removal

Let us bring our tools, knowledge and experience to complete your project safely and efficiently. We can describe to you during an estimate the methods we’ll use to rig your tree down in a controlled and safe manner, so you’ll know what to expect.

Stump Grinding

Your tree disappeared but what about the stump? We can take care of that unsightly trip hazard with our grinder. We will call in and have underground utilities marked beforehand so there are no surprises. We then clean up and backfill the hole raking the area to match the surrounding landscape when we’re done.

24-Hour Emergency Work

In the calm of night or during a storm “treemurgencies” can happen. From trees in the process of slowly uprooting, to already down and through the roof or as simple as a driveway or access road being impassable help is a phone call away. Special rates apply in the event we need to leave an active jobsite unfinished or are outside regular business hours.

Firewood

We have more than we can use! From premium split and delivered to green rounds dropped in a pile for free. Call or text to see what we have available.

Wood Chip Delivery

Wood chips naturally come along with our line of work! We can put your address on our list and drop for free any time we’re working nearby.
