Tree Service in Cordova, TN

Cordova and Eads make up a good part of our east-side work. Many of these properties have larger lots with a real mix of trees, and plenty of them were left standing when the subdivisions were built — which brings its own set of problems.

Why Cordova trees need their own approach

Trees that were kept from the original woodland often struggle once they are suddenly standing alone in a lawn. They grew up sheltered by other trees, so they never developed the trunk strength or root spread of an open-grown tree. Those are the ones we are most often called out to assess, and they are worth a proper look before they fail.

What we do in Cordova

• Tree removal — including large and difficult removals using a crane where access is tight
• Tree trimming and pruning — canopy thinning, dead-wooding, raising limbs clear of roofs
• Disease and insect assessment — a certified arborist checks whether a tree can be saved
• Storm damage response — getting a fallen tree off a house, fence or driveway
• Stump grinding and full clean-up

What the work usually involves in Cordova

Cordova and Eads are really two different jobs on one page. On the Cordova side the trees people call about are often ornamental rather than structural — crepe myrtle, Japanese maple, dogwood, sweet bay magnolia, planted deliberately and planted close to the house — and that is pruning in the proper sense: lifting a canopy off a path or a roof, thinning it enough to let light through, taking a cracked limb out without ruining the shape of what is left. It is slower than removal work, and it is the work people most often regret handing to an untrained crew, because an ornamental cut badly does not grow back right. Out toward Eads the lots open up and the job changes — bigger timber, more ground to cover, and removals around power lines where the clearance has to be settled before anything is cut.
