Our Operational Standards
Comprehensive Liability Insurance
We carry full liability and workman’s compensation insurance to protect your property and our crew. You are never liable for accidents on your land.
Owner-Led Expertise
Founder Randy Erbskorn personally oversees high-stakes projects, ensuring the mission of "planting more trees than we remove" is balanced with necessary safety removals.
Specialized Equipment
The Tree Guy Services utilizes 75-foot aerial lifts, crane-assisted removal technology, and low-impact friction devices to dismantle trees without damaging the surrounding landscape.
Zero-Property-Damage Protocol
We perform detailed risk assessments before offloading any equipment. Our crew utilizes industry-standard rigging techniques to lower heavy timber under control, rather than letting it fall freely.
What Are Our Tree Services for Jackson County Homeowners?
We provide a complete lifecycle of tree care solutions. Whether you require emergency storm clearance or routine health pruning, our team serves Jackson, Ann Arbor, Lansing, and Battle Creek with the same level of rigorous professionalism.
Hazardous Tree Removal & Sectional Dismantling
Removing trees near houses, power lines, or septic systems requires a systematic approach known as sectional dismantling. We do not fell trees whole in residential areas. Instead, our crew climbs or accesses the canopy via aerial lifts to remove the tree piece by piece. We rig branches using ropes and pulleys to lower them gently to the ground, ensuring absolute protection for your roof, fence, and lawn.
Precision Tree Trimming & Health Pruning
The Tree Guy Services strictly enforces a "No Spikes" policy for pruning jobs. We never use climbing spikes on trees that are being preserved, as these punctures create entry points for disease and pests. We prune for structural integrity and health, focusing on removing deadwood and crossing branches that threaten the tree's long-term viability.
Stump Grinding & Complete Site Restoration
Tree removal is not complete until the ground is usable again. We grind stumps 6-10 inches below grade to sever the root ball and allow for immediate replanting or sodding. Our "Zero-Mess Cleanup" guarantee means we haul away all wood chips and debris. We utilize shielding to prevent flying debris from damaging windows or siding during the grinding process.
What Are Our Tree Services for Jackson County Homeowners?

Transparent Pricing Factors for Tree Services in Michigan
Many homeowners ask, "How much does tree removal cost in Jackson, MI?" While we cannot provide a flat rate without seeing the tree, we believe in educating our clients on exactly what drives the price. We do not give low-ball estimates over the phone just to hike the price upon arrival.
Tree Height & Diameter
Larger trees require more labor hours and heavier equipment to dismantle safely.
Proximity to Structures
A tree standing in an open field is cheaper to remove than one overhanging a garage or swimming pool, which requires technical rigging.
Equipment Requirements
If a crane or 75-foot aerial lift is needed to access the canopy safely, this is factored into the operational cost.
Accessibility
Trees located in fenced backyards with narrow gates may require specialized compact lifts or manual hauling, which impacts the timeline.
