B. Haney and Sons Arborists plans every hazardous tree takedown in Laclede with the worst-case in mind. We assume wood may fail unexpectedly and rig accordingly — bigger margins of safety, more crane support, lower lifting points.
We take the tree down in smaller, more conservative sections than a healthy tree would require. Wood integrity dictates section size, never just efficiency.
Our Laclede crew finishes every hazardous removal with documentation (photos, written summary) for your records, then hauls wood, grinds the stump, and cleans the site thoroughly.

Sometimes. Trees with structural defects (weak unions, codominant stems) on otherwise healthy specimens may be saveable with cabling and bracing. Trees with root rot, hollow trunks, or significant crown dieback usually cannot be safely saved. B. Haney and Sons Arborists arborists in Laclede make honest recommendations — sometimes saving the tree, sometimes recommending removal.
Our Laclede arborists assume hazardous trees may lose pieces unexpectedly during the takedown. We use crane support to pre-load sections before cutting, smaller sections than a healthy tree would require, redundant rigging tie-ins, and ground crew positioning that keeps everyone clear of potential failure zones. Slow and methodical is safer than fast.
Hazardous trees in Laclede 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.
Our reputation is built on results. Here is what our customers have to say.
"These guys handled a tricky takedown — large cottonwood between our house and the neighbor garage. Tight quarters, no margin for error. Used a crane and proper rigging. Job done in one day, no damage anywhere. True professionals."
"Hazardous tree removal on a leaning oak threatening our house. Crew arrived on time with proper equipment, rigged everything down in sections, and the property was completely safe the entire time. Great communication from quote through cleanup."
"These arborists actually understand trees — they did not just hack at branches. They explained which cuts would help the tree heal and which would damage it. Our maples look better than they have in years. Will definitely use again next pruning season."
