Common Questions
What should I do if heavy snow has damaged my lawn or exposed tree roots?
Anchorage's heavy snowfall can compact soil, smother grass, and even heave shallow tree roots to the surface, which is damaging to both your lawn and trees. Greatland Tree Service addresses this common local issue with a comprehensive approach. For lawns, we perform aeration and overseeding to restore health. For exposed roots, our certified arborists assess the tree's stability. We may recommend careful grading and soil amendment to protect the roots without harming the tree, or a strategic removal if the tree has become a hazard. Our goal is to repair the damage and implement solutions that prevent recurrence in future winters.
What's the difference between tree pruning and tree removal, and how do I know which service I need?
Pruning (or trimming) is a health and maintenance service. Our ARCT-certified arborists selectively remove dead, diseased, or hazardous branches to improve a tree's structure, health, and appearance, and to clear safety hazards. Removal is necessary when a tree is dead, dying, structurally unsound, or causing irreparable conflict with structures or utilities. Since our start in 1999, we've specialized in assessing Alaskan trees. We will provide a clear, expert evaluation of your tree's condition and discuss all options, prioritizing preservation when it's safe and feasible for your Anchorage property.
