A homeowner in Bloomfield Hills, MI, reached out to Otto Tree Service after they noticed a large ash tree growing a little too close to their home for comfort. Large branches had begun extending towards their roof, and they worried that a snowstorm might bring them down and cause damage.


The mature ash tree stood a few feet from the home’s foundation and left no margin for error. The Otto Tree Service crew inspected the property and measured the reach of every major branch. They used a crane to lift and lower each section with total control and kept the roofline and landscaping safe throughout the process.
The tree leaned toward the home, which ruled out climbing as an option. The crew performed a hazardous tree removal with a crane and rigging system that allowed them to manage the weight of every cut.
Each section came down under full control and landed safely away from the house and garden. The entire job took only about five hours from start to finish.
Once the crew made their cuts, they then cleared the site of branches, trunk pieces, and sawdust. They ground the stump below the surface and left the yard smooth and ready for use.
Before leaving, the team explained how seasonal tree trimming and consistent tree maintenance help prevent falling limbs from damaging their home in the future.
