What we do

The trees nobody else wants to touch

Hazard removals, storm-downed trees and fire-clearance work take experience and the right equipment. With 30+ years of wildland-fire background on the crew, Sindelar takes on the jobs other companies pass on — safely.

Tree & Limb Removal

Full tree removal, hazardous limb removal and technical takedowns near homes, power lines and tight access — done safely.

Storm & Downed-Tree Cleanup

Trees snapped or uprooted in a storm cleared fast, cut into rounds and hauled off — so your property is safe and usable again.

Fire Clearance (Cal-Fire 4291)

Defensible-space clearance cleared to Cal-Fire 4291 and insurance specifications — by a crew that has fought wildfire.

Stump Grinding

Stumps ground out below grade so you reclaim the space — no trip hazard, no regrowth, nothing left to mow around.

Mastication & Land Clearing

Brush mastication and land clearing for lots, fire breaks and defensible space — even in remote, hard-to-reach locations.

Tree Trimming & Pruning

Precise trimming and pruning that keeps your trees healthy, shaped and safely clear of the house and lines.

What homeowners say

Tuolumne County trusts Sindelar

★★★★★

"I had two cedars snap during the last big storms, leaving a 45' and a 30' tree to be removed. Tim came out promptly to give me an estimate to drop the trees and cut them into 16-inch rounds. Great work, exactly as promised."
