Hazardous trees in De Soto have compromised wood that cannot bear normal rigging loads. We use smaller sections, more conservative cuts, frequent crane support, and additional safety personnel. The result is a slower, more deliberate takedown — worth the cost to protect property and people, but more labor-intensive than healthy-tree work.
Real feedback from property owners who trusted B. Haney and Sons Arborists with their tree care.
"Hired B. Haney and Sons for two big oak removals in our backyard. The crew showed up on time, dropped both trees in tight quarters without a single scrape on the fence, and ground the stumps clean. You can tell this is a company with real tree-care tradition behind it."
"I have been using B. Haney for our property for years. They prune our maples every other winter and the trees have never looked healthier. There is something to be said for hiring an arborist company that has been doing this since 1940 — the experience shows in every cut."
"Used B. Haney for emergency storm cleanup after a derecho came through. Three trees down, one on the garage. Their crew was on-site within hours, coordinated with our insurance adjuster, and had the property cleared in two days. The B. Haney name still means something in tree care."
