Reaching Higher provides professional tree care for homeowners and property owners throughout Lancaster County and Chester County, Pennsylvania. As a full-service tree company, we offer a variety of services to help you maintain your trees, manage risk, and keep your property looking its best.
We also offer emergency help during storms or when a tree becomes an urgent safety concern.
As part of our professional tree services, we prune your trees to help keep them healthy, balanced, and looking their best. Proper pruning can improve structure, reduce storm risk, and support long-term growth.
What professional pruning helps with:
Many trees, such as apple and cherry trees, respond well when they’re pruned during dormancy. We’ll help you understand the best timing based on the tree and your goals.
Tree removal is sometimes required when a tree is in a poor or dangerous location or showing signs of decline. Trees with dying branches, missing bark, or a new lean may become a safety risk.
Regardless of the reason, our tree care professionals will remove your tree carefully and professionally to help restore safety to your property. Stump grinding is available as an option after removal. Grinding can help eliminate trip hazards and make the area easier to restore with soil and seed/sod if desired.
Stumps are unsightly and can be dangerous. Decaying stumps can attract pests such as termites, ants, and other insects closer to your home. Stumps can also be a trip hazard and a maintenance headache.
Stump grinding is a practical way to remove the stump below grade without leaving a large hole in your yard.
Cleanup and restoration services (such as hauling grindings, bringing in topsoil, and seeding) are available as an option upon request.
Storms can cause serious damage to trees, including broken limbs, split trunks, and downed trees. We can clean up the mess, prune damaged trees where appropriate, or remove a tree entirely if it has become unsafe.
Storm cleanup can include:
Because storm damage can involve hidden hazards, our team can assess the tree and help determine whether it can be saved or if removal is the safer option.

Some trees develop structural issues that make them more likely to fail in storms or high winds. Cabling and bracing can help reduce risk by providing supplemental support to weak areas of a tree.
Reaching Higher can assess your tree and recommend whether cabling and bracing is a good option, or if other solutions such as pruning or removal would be safer.
