Tree Service in Haslett, MI

Lake Lansing gives Haslett its shape. The neighborhoods around the water are heavily wooded — mature oaks, maples, and pines crowding right up to the cottages and year-round homes along the shore — and the lake breeze that makes summer so pleasant also drives the storms that put those trees to the test. Haslett sits in Meridian Township, an easy reach for us, and the big lakeside trees here keep us busy through every season.

Hayworth Tree Service is family-owned, licensed and insured. Working over water and around close-set homes is a specialty of ours, and Haslett has plenty of both.

Wooded lakeside neighborhoods around Lake Lansing

Trees packed tight around a lake home are a mixed blessing. They're gorgeous and they cool the place all summer, but they also lean toward the light over the water, shed limbs onto docks and decks, and grow into wires along the shore roads. We prune and trim to clear roofs, decks, and drives, and where a canopy has gotten too big and heavy for its spot, we reduce and thin the crown so it catches less wind and holds together better. When a lakeside tree is truly a hazard over the house, our removal service brings it down in controlled pieces so nothing lands where it shouldn't.

When wind and ice come off the lake

Open water means weather with room to build. Wind rolls across Lake Lansing and hits the shoreline trees first, and a heavy, wet snow or an ice storm can load a maple until it splits. Our storm damage cleanup handles the aftermath — broken tops, hung limbs, trees down across the drive — and gets your place back to normal quickly. Ahead of the season, a healthy tree with a weak union can often be cabled and braced so it rides out the storms instead of failing in one.

What Haslett homeowners call us for

• Pruning and trimming for crowded lakeside lots
• Crown reduction and thinning on oversized trees over the house
• Storm damage cleanup after the wind and ice
• Tree removal and stump grinding when a tree comes down

We serve the wooded lakes-and-suburbs area all around here, so we're often over in Okemos, next door in East Lansing, and up toward Bath and Park Lake.
