Why Choose Trees Plus
Griffith presents a specific problem: alleys. Much of the mature canopy here sits along rear rights-of-way with overhead utility runs threading through it, which means access, drop zone, and utility clearance all have to be solved before a saw comes out. Our crews plan Griffith jobs around that constraint rather than improvising on site, and we coordinate with the utility when a limb is genuinely in contact rather than working around it. Trees Plus is fully insured and has been serving Griffith and the surrounding Lake County communities since 2014.
Tree Service in Griffith, Indiana
Griffith is a densely developed Lake County community where the residential landscape is characterized by closely spaced mid-20th century homes, compact lots, and mature shade trees that have been growing in place for five to seven decades. The urban density of Griffith's neighborhoods means that large trees rarely have adequate open space for safe traditional felling, as neighboring fences, homes, garages, and alleyways are typically within the drop zone of any significant canopy tree, requiring precision removal techniques on virtually every job. Street trees and yard trees throughout Griffith frequently overlap with utility easements, alley rights-of-way, and overhead infrastructure, creating regular maintenance needs for both utility clearance trimming and hazard removal. The community's aging tree stock, predominantly silver maples, elms, and large shade trees planted during the post-war residential build-out, is increasingly showing the structural issues that come with advanced age.
Seasonal Tree Care Tip
In Griffith, street trees and shade trees overhanging alleys and utility easements should be trimmed every two to three years to prevent utility conflicts and ice storm damage.
Frequently asked questions about Tree Service in Griffith, IN
How does Trees Plus remove trees safely on small Griffith lots?
On Griffith's compact residential lots, Trees Plus uses crane-assisted sectional removal, taking trees down from the top in controlled pieces rather than felling them in one direction. Our 94-foot crane controls exactly where each section goes, protecting your home, fence, and neighboring properties throughout the entire process.
Does Trees Plus trim trees near power lines in Griffith?
Trees Plus trims trees near utility lines throughout Griffith. We assess each situation carefully and use bucket truck access where possible to safely trim branches away from utility infrastructure. For trees actually in contact with energized lines, we coordinate with the appropriate utility before beginning work.
What should I do if a tree falls on my Griffith property?
Stay clear of the fallen tree, check for downed utility lines, and call Trees Plus at 219-508-0417 for emergency removal. In Griffith's dense neighborhoods, a fallen tree can affect neighboring fences and structures quickly. We prioritize emergency calls and respond with the equipment to make your property safe.
Does Trees Plus remove the stump after tree removal in Griffith?
Yes. Stump grinding is available as part of every tree removal in Griffith. We grind stumps four to six inches below grade with complete cleanup. On Griffith's compact lots where yard space is limited, stump removal is especially valuable.
