- Client Preferences: Clients had a large oak tree in the backyard that they wanted safely removed during the summer season. Due to the trunk’s massive size and weight, the Boutte Tree crew used specialized rigging equipment and exercised extreme caution while cutting and lowering sections to avoid damage to the surrounding landscape and nearby homes. The project required careful planning and precision to safely remove the tree while keeping the property clean and protected throughout the process.

Creating a Safe Removal Plan
The homeowner wanted the tree removed before falling limbs caused expensive property damage or forced them to call for emergency tree services.
The Boutte Tree crew listened to the homeowner and mapped out a controlled removal plan before starting the project. They determined that standard tree trimming would not solve the problem because the oak had already outgrown the available space near the surrounding structures. Strong winds and summer storms were on the way, and the homeowner wanted to remove the tree before any weak limbs caused damage.
How Boutte Tree Carefully Removed the Oak Tree
Boutte Tree started the project by removing heavy outer limbs to reduce weight in the canopy. The crew used specialized rigging equipment to lower each branch carefully and prevent damage to the property below.
After clearing the upper canopy, the crew worked downward through the trunk in manageable sections. Careful cuts and lowering techniques gave the crew full control over every large section during removal.
Once the crew removed the remaining trunk, they completed stump grinding to clear the base of the tree and leave the homeowner’s backyard clean. The completed project also reduced the need for ongoing tree maintenance or possible storm damage cleanup.
