Bill has been serving the triangle area since 1999. He moved with his wife and two children to Clayton in 2009. For the last decade Clayton has been a welcome home to our family as well as our extending family. Before coming to North Carolina, Bill was born and raised in Penobscot County, Maine. Hailing from the woods, he cut his teeth on logging at an early age. His grandfather worked logging. His cousins worked logging and today even his younger brother has a tree service in the Portland area.

Who will be working in my yard?

We are a small local tree service business, so the only people who will be working in your yard are the crew Bill has hand picked. Our stump grinding is a one man operation and again that man is Bill. Unlike the big tree removal businesses, we run a single crew. This outfit  is comprised of hard working and tenaciously tough individuals.
