Services We Offer in Merrifield, VA

Tree Removal and Stump Grinding

We support tree preservation over tree removal when possible. However, some circumstances require tree removal services. Our arborists can come to your property to address your concerns. We'll determine whether we can take steps to heal the tree.

Otherwise, we'll recommend a tree removal and stump grinding service. Our team possesses the licenses needed to fell and remove trees with cranes and other heavy equipment. Then, we'll grind the stumps to eliminate tripping hazards, stop the spread of deadly tree diseases, and prevent new trees from growing out of the stump.

Pruning and Trimming

Some property owners attempt pruning and trimming techniques by themselves, resulting in pruning mistakes that negatively impact the tree's health. People who don't have pruning and trimming experience can also injure themselves or others within the vicinity.

We prune trees to improve their health, increase structural stability, and make them look gorgeous. Our tree care specialists offer these trimming services:

  • Hazardous tree pruning: Storms, diseases, and other stressors can weaken some branches. Eliminating hazards and securing tree health involves trimming limbs that threaten your property and family.
  • Structural pruning: Branches are integral to a stable, safe structure. Some limb growth damages the tree trunk or leaves certain areas vulnerable. We'll eliminate those limbs.
  • Crown raising: Have you ever gone for a pleasurable walk, only for a tree limb to strike you and ruin the moment? Crown raising solves that problem! Our arborists eliminate limbs that could hit your vehicles, face, and even your unsuspecting kids.
  • Crown shaping: Sometimes, even trees need haircuts. Crown shaping does exactly that! We make the crown look more visually appealing.
  • Crown cleaning: When a tree has too many limbs, it may struggle to sufficiently nourish them all. We remove the dead, damaged, or excess branch growth to ensure healthy branches.

Tree Health Management

One of the most essential aspects of tree services in Merrifield, VA, is tree health management. Health management involves providing saplings and transplants with a strong start, helping mature trees stay strong, and supplying each tree with its nutritive needs. Our tree health management services begin with a tree health assessment.

During the assessment, we'll provide:

We'll then suggest a custom fertilization plan to nourish each tree based on its needs. Our arborists may also recommend a root health management routine to keep the tree's structure sound and safe.

Land Clearing

If you have a construction project, you may not need to clear the land of all vegetation. Our staff at Riverbend Tree Service can help you minimize tree damage during lot clearing projects. Let's develop a tree protection plan together and preserve as many trees as possible!

Emergency Tree Service

Trees can become dangerous, especially following a violent storm. We designed our emergency tree service to help Merrifield residents avoid disasters like property damage and injuries. Our emergency tree removal services include storm damage cleanup.

We'll assist you in restoring your property to its former state while protecting the place and people you love from unseen tree hazards.

Did You Know…

You do not need a permit, however, to remove a tree that poses a danger to people or property.

"The team was well coordinated and also demonstrated skilled work with everything ranging from hand tools to heavy machinery such as a heavy-duty crane. The team was capable of working within the constraints of the project site. This company is a very professional, capable, and high-efficiency tree service team, and safe practices were demonstrated."

Yng-Shing Lee

"The Riverbend crew did a great job trimming our flowering trees —thoughtfully pruning for the shape and health of the trees rather than just the across-the-top buzz cut that some companies perform. Crew thoroughly cleaned up all debris, too. The price was not cheap, but it was fair for the quality of the work, and the scheduling was very prompt. Highly recommend!"
