Yesterday we removed 2 white pines and some hardwoods that were smothering a house. Look how much sun the house is getting with the trees gone!

Black Mountain Hurricane Damage

Hurricane Irene dropped this nasty spruce tree onto Black Mountain’s lift line in Jackson. The tree top wound into the fiber optics ($15,000 each) that service Verizon’s cell tower making for a challenging removal!

I like to inspect my gear before the summer season gets under way and today was the day. Anything missing?

Pine vs. Roof…

These photos are from a job several years ago in Intervale. I think they demonstrate, rather forcefully, why you should think twice about keeping tall pines around your house. Luckily no one was home because the branches went through the roof, through the attic and into the bedroom! Furthermore, the tree appeared healthy and sound and failed without warning during a winter storm.

New Website

Welcome to the new Saco Treeworks website! As some of you know, we have been online for several years and are proud to have launched the first treework website in the valley in 1996. Our old site was well received by customers, however it was designed by an arborist and not a web designer so it was difficult to update and maintain. With help from 6288 Designs we were able to build a new site with more features and room for expansion. In addition to a standard company overview, we are pleased to be adding an improved photo gallery, a video gallery and a news section. We hope to keep the site interesting by featuring current work and highlighting interesting regional tree stories (see News section). Our website has helped us attract, inform and communicate with customers in the past and we hope to do that even better in the future. We will be tinkering with new site over the next few months so please feel free to contact us with any comments or suggestions.
