Storm & Emergency Tree Service in Cutten, CA

Cutten and Ridgewood grew up inside second-growth redwood country, and the trees never left. Full-size redwoods and firs stand inside fence lines all through the neighborhood, sharing small lots with houses, garages, and swing sets. It makes for one of the prettiest neighborhoods in the county, and some of its most technical tree work.

How storm & emergency tree service goes in Cutten

Cutten sits just inland of the bay fog, wet enough to grow second-growth redwood at full speed and windy enough in winter to test every heavy limb. When a front does its work in Cutten, we triage the way we would want it done for our own houses: people in danger and structures being damaged first, blocked drives and fences next, damaged-but-standing trees after that, cleanup last. Cutten is fifteen minutes from our McKinleyville base and on the daily route through Eureka.

The Cutten hazard is redwood limb weight over roofs and Douglas firs that have died back and need to come down in pieces between two houses.

When Cutten homeowners call for storm & emergency tree service

• A coast redwood or Douglas fir down on the roof, the garage, a vehicle, or the fence.
• A broken top or a big hanger still in the crown over the house after last night's wind.
• Lines down or tangled in the tree; that is a utility call first, then us.
• A tree resting on a roof that has stopped moving; it is still loaded and can shift.

Cutten and Ridgewood put full-size redwoods and firs inside small residential fence lines, sharing the yard with garages, decks, and swing sets, so nearly everything is rigged over a structure. Redwood roots crowd every Cutten yard, and a stump here is usually right against a driveway, a fence post, or a neighbor's lawn.
