A clear, professional approach to hazardous tree removal — tailored to your Mentor property.
Our ISA-trained arborist evaluates root health, trunk integrity, lean angle, structural defects, and target zones to confirm the tree is genuinely hazardous and to plan the safest takedown approach.
B. Haney and Sons Arborists plans every hazardous tree takedown in Mentor 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.
Our Mentor arborists size every section based on what the wood can actually hold under load. Hazardous trees sometimes lose pieces unexpectedly — we never assume, we always test, we always have backup rigging.
We document the hazard for your insurance or HOA records, provide a written work summary, and complete full debris cleanup including stump grinding if requested.

Warning signs in Mentor trees include large dead branches, mushrooms or conks at the base (root rot indicators), bark falling off in sheets, hollow trunk cavities, sudden lean or recent root disturbance, and significant crown dieback. B. Haney and Sons Arborists arborists can perform a paid risk assessment with a written report or include a basic visual evaluation with any free quote.
Hazardous trees in Mentor 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.
Standard homeowner policies in Minnesota usually do not cover removal of hazardous trees that have not yet failed. They cover removal AFTER the tree falls on a structure. Some policies cover hazardous tree removal if the tree is imminently threatening insured structures. B. Haney and Sons Arborists can document the hazard for Mentor insurance claims, but coverage decisions are between you and your carrier.
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 Mentor make honest recommendations — sometimes saving the tree, sometimes recommending removal.
Real feedback from property owners who trusted B. Haney and Sons Arborists with their tree care.
"Cabling and bracing on a heritage oak with a split trunk. The arborist installed proper hardware and showed me exactly what they did and why. The tree is stable, beautiful, and likely good for another 20+ years. Specialized work done right."
"I have been using B. Haney for our property for years. They prune our maples every other winter and the trees have never looked healthier. There is something to be said for hiring an arborist company that has been doing this since 1940 — the experience shows in every cut."
"Storm damage cleanup after a major thunderstorm. Crew showed up the morning after our call, removed the fallen limbs, cleaned up the debris, and even hauled away wood from neighbors who pitched in. Went above and beyond."
