Tree Service in Sharonville, OH

Tree Service in Sharonville often involves backyards that feel like an extension of the park next door. Sharon Woods, at 11450 Lebanon Road, covers 723 acres and opened in 1932 as the first Great Parks of Hamilton County destination. Its Gorge Trail follows Sharon Creek past layers of fossil-filled shale and limestone. Many Sharonville homes share that mix of steep creek banks, mature hardwoods and thin soil over rock.

Sharonville was settled in 1788 and incorporated as a village in 1911, becoming a city in 1962. Most of the city is in Hamilton County, with a portion in Butler County inside West Chester Township. That county line matters for small things, such as which county programs a resident can use for yard waste, but not for how we approach a tree.

An older population

Census estimates show that 23.6% of Sharonville residents are 65 or older, and 88.4% lived in the same house a year earlier. Many have been in their homes for decades and have watched a sapling become a tree that now shades the whole roof. Climbing ladders and hauling brush is no longer worth the risk for a lot of owners, and we take on the whole job: climbing, cutting, chipping and cleanup.

Creek banks and shallow rock

Trees growing on the slopes along Sharon Creek and its small tributaries root into soil that is often thin over shale and limestone. Shale weathers into clay that gets slick when wet. A tree on that kind of slope can start to lean after a wet spring, and the soil on the uphill side may crack or heave. That is worth a phone call. Removing a tree on a bank also takes planning, since pieces have to be lowered and carried uphill rather than dropped. We also pay attention to drainage: a removal on a creek bank should not leave bare soil that washes into the stream with the next heavy rain, so we leave stumps and roots where they help.

Typical Sharonville work

• Removing leaning or dead trees on wooded slopes behind homes
• Pruning large maples and oaks back from roofs and gutters
• Clearing storm-broken limbs after summer thunderstorms
• Dealing with dead ash, which emerald ash borer has killed across Ohio
• Grinding stumps along fence lines and in front lawns

Brush from your own pruning

If you live on the Hamilton County side, you can take bundled branches up to 4 feet long and 12 inches thick to the county's free yard trimmings drop-off sites from March 21 to December 6. The Colerain Township site at the Rumpke landfill on Struble Road is open Saturday and Sunday mornings. Commercial loads are not accepted, so for work we do, hauling is part of the price.
