The ice storm in Maine a number of years ago was only one dramatic example of the horrendous damage nature can inflict on valuable landscape plantings. Similar damage can follow thunderstorms, hurricanes and nor'easters as well. As scary as things first seem in the aftermath of such an event, a broken tree can often be repaired. The Lucas Tree Experts have generations of experience in repairing trees and shrubs whenever possible--and even occasionally when it seems impossible!

Licensed arborists will make a site visit and consult with the homeowner, agreeing on an appropriate course of action. This might include: Trimming and pruning to remove dangerous or broken or unsightly branches, using their climbing skills, a bucket truck, or, occasionally, a crane. No tree is too large, and no job is too tough.

Cabling and Bracing is occasionally a successful method for restoring a damaged or aging tree to renewed health.

Long ago, the lesson was learned that untrained homeowners can risk serious injury to themselves, let alone further damage to plant material, by taking on a project that should be done by trained and equipped professionals.
