Being a full service tree company, Econo Tree Service offers more then just pruning and removals. Cabling, planting and fertilizing are just a few of the extra services we provide.

We also recycle the materials from our projects such as mulch, chips, firewood (in season) and a limited selection of sawn lumber.








Cabling and Bracing

Many old trees in our area can benefit from a well thought out cabling system. Cabling is often used to protect a limb from breakage due to a weak attachment or other structural defects and where removal of the limb is not an option. Besides Extra High Strength cable, we also feature the Cobra soft cabling system, which installs with no drilling or other injury to the tree.

Tree Props

Props can be another method of hazard reduction for leaning or unbalanced trees. All our tree props are custom designed and built to specifications determined by the tree's growth and site characteristics.

Root Crown Excavations

One of the primary killers of old oak trees in our area is decay at the root crown. The trunk is often buried during construction or landscaping and water is allowed to collect against the trunk, encouranging fungi and decay below the ground level, out of site. When enough of the roots have been compromised, the tree can fall with no warning.

Root crown excavations allow our Arborists to inspect the root zone and let the area dry out to retard fungal growth.

Econo Tree Service uses patented Airspade technology, which removes the soil with high pressure air, while leaving the delicate roots intact.

Planting

There is more to tree planting then just making sure the green side is up. Econo Tree Service can help pick out and install that prefect tree for your site, and help it get a good start.

Fertilizing

If your tree is just not growing as you think it should, maybe it needs better nutrition. We can test the soil and use the proper fertilizer for the conditions. We use deep root feeding to get the nutrients down to the roots, where they belong.

Custom Milling

Just because that tree needed to be removed doesn't mean you have to part with it forever. Turn it into a bench, or a patio! We can turn that hazardous tree into useful lumber.

We can pick up the raw logs and deliver the finished product, or you can call 650-367-4900 for availability of already processed boards. On site milling may also be arranged.

Not every tree is desirable for milling. Factors such as location of the tree, species, defects and foreign matter can limit the usability of the tree.





Mulch

We offer free mulch for delivery in our area. Please call 650-367-4900 for availablity.

Firewood

We sell seasoned oak firewood in the fall and winter months. We usually start delivery in September and continue while supplies last. Get your order in early, because this stuff goes fast.

Lumber

A limited supply of milled redwood slabs are availible for purchase. Please call for pricing and delivery information.
