Land Management

Questions we get asked

How often does a property need this?

Most wooded Wasatch Back properties settle into one spring visit a year, with a fall visit added where there are structures close to timber. The first visit is always the biggest.

Do you work with HOAs on common areas?

Yes, and we provide itemised documentation suitable for board records and for Firewise annual reporting, which otherwise tends to be the part communities fail at.

Can the work be phased across seasons?

Usually, and on a large parcel it is often the right call. We sequence by priority so the highest-risk zones get done first and the cost lands gradually.

Will thinning hurt the trees that are left?

Done correctly it helps them, by reducing competition for water and light. One real caution: a tree that spent decades inside a dense stand has never been wind-loaded alone, and newly exposed trees fail at higher rates for a few seasons. We account for that when choosing what stays.
