Tree Service in Springfield, VA

Springfield’s established neighborhoods were built around big shade trees, and many of those oaks, maples and tulip poplars now stand taller than the houses beneath them. King Tree Services pairs ISA Certified Arborist® (MA-6043A) guidance and tree risk assessment with the crane and rigging equipment we use on commercial sites. Removals on tight Springfield lots are planned, controlled and cleaned up properly.

Big Trees, Small Lots: Crane Removals in Springfield

On a typical Springfield lot, a large tree may sit a few feet from the house, the fence and the neighbor’s yard, with no room to fell it in one piece. That’s where our commercial experience counts. Our commercial division (kingtreeservices.net) relies on the same company-owned 75-ton crane and static vertical rigging for developers and property managers. Each section is secured on the crane line before it’s cut, then lowered to a planned landing spot, with AlturnaMATS® ground protection under the equipment.

Tree Care for Springfield’s Aging Canopy

Trees that were young when Springfield’s neighborhoods were built are now reaching the age where decay, weak forks and heavy limbs start to appear. A tree risk assessment tells you which trees need work now, which can wait, and which can be kept with pruning or cabling.

Storm Season Near Lake Accotink and Accotink Creek

Summer thunderstorms bring down limbs and whole trees across the neighborhoods along Accotink Creek. Homes near the creek may also sit inside Fairfax County’s Chesapeake Bay Resource Protection Areas. Within those protected areas, Fairfax County requires approval before removing trees, including dead or dying ones, and may restrict what equipment can be used near the water. We check before we cut.
