TREE & STUMP REMOVAL

We are the best value when it comes to tree & stump removal.

Our goal is to preserve trees as often as possible. If they are still healthy , we do all we can to retain them.

However, in cases of unhealthy or dying trees, where they are a danger to property, or when there is no other option, we can safely remove the tree.

We only send certified arborists to plan your project, and our attention to detail is unparelled in the industry.

RTEC’s Tree Removal Services

Our Certified Arborists will be able to tell you if your tree is dead/dying and if you need a tree removal. If your tree needs to be removed, our Arborists will provide you with the best way to remove the tree from your property while adhering to OSHA and ANSI safety standards.

In Arlington VA it is very common to come across trees that are close to buildings or utility wires. We specialize in these high-tech removals. We have developed and perfected protocols and process that give homeowners the solutions they desire without damaging surrounding structures or wires. Our innovative processes have been recognized by the Tree Care Industry Association and are being implemented nationwide to improve the safety of tree removals in urban environments.

Stump Grinding:

Stump Grinding is the act of grinding down tree stumps that result from tree removal to avoid trip hazards. Rotting stumps are an attraction for insects and fungi. To avoid potential infestation of your existing trees, stump grinding should be performed.

Wood Disposal:

We make sure that every tree we remove is recycled into mulch, used as lumber, or crafted into furniture.

Other Services

RTEC Tree Care is a full service tree health care and maintenance provider in Maryland, Virginia, and DC.

Tree Pruning

RTEC specialists bring proper training, the right equipment, and compliance with Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) and American National Standards Institute (ANSI.) We hire ISA Certified Arborists who know the proper cuts.

Cabling

A tree with two or more large leads can be unstable and can cause damage to your property. We provide a support structure in the form of high-strength cables that help to stabilize the tree. This prevents further injury to the tree, and can even guide a mature, healthy tree to grow in the right direction.

Bio Stimulants

This all-natural alternative to fertilizer–like a multivitamin for your trees—is recommended twice a year for any tree or woody shrub. It can armor the plant, leaving it more resistant to disease, pests, or challenging weather conditions. You can expect no danger of overuse as is the case with ordinary fertilizers.
