Many Napa properties include vineyards, narrow side yards, stone retaining walls and overhead utility lines. Removing a mature tree in these areas requires steady control of each cut. We break the tree down in small sections and lower the material with ropes, slings and friction devices. When the ground space allows, we use proper notches and wedges to guide the tree in one direction. Some trees with severe decay or limited access require a crane to lift sections away from structures.

These methods matter because they prevent damage to roofs, decks, irrigation lines and walkways. Safe tree cutting in Napa depends on slow, controlled movement and a clear plan for every limb.
