Professional tree care, pruning, removal & emergency response serving Bangor and surrounding communities in Maine.
Every tree service you need, delivered by trained arborists who know the Bangor area.
Selective branch removal to increase light and air movement through the canopy without reducing overall size. Reduces wind resistance, improves understory growth, keeps natural tree shape.
Acreage clearing for new construction, agricultural conversion, view corridors, and fire-break creation. Our heavy-equipment crews drop, chip, and haul efficiently at competitive per-acre pricing.
Integrated pest management for emerald ash borer, gypsy moth, scale insects, Japanese beetles, and other tree pests. Trunk injections, soil drenches, and bark sprays — chosen for least impact.
Mechanical and hand-dug tree transplanting for trees up to large caliper sizes. We root-prune in advance when possible, lift with proper soil mass, and re-plant with deep watering protocols.
Structural cabling and bracing to support weak unions and split trunks on otherwise healthy trees. Properly installed ANSI A300 hardware can extend a heritage tree life by decades.
Specialized takedown of dead trees that have become brittle and unpredictable. We use crane assistance and advanced rigging because deadwood does not behave like live wood under load — safety-first work.
Fast emergency tree response — we are available day, night, weekends, and holidays. Our crews assess the situation, plan a safe approach, and clear the hazard while keeping your property and people protected.
Effective tree disease treatment that targets the actual pathogen — not generic spray-and-pray approaches. We diagnose first, treat appropriately, and avoid unnecessary chemical applications.
Aesthetic trimming that shapes the canopy and clears branches away from rooflines, power lines, and walkways. Our crews work with rope rigging to keep the work clean and the property undamaged.
Tree planing service for property owners who want refined silhouettes without compromising tree structure. We make selective cuts that improve appearance and preserve the tree long-term health.
Expert removal of leaning, decaying, or structurally unsound trees before they fail. Our arborists evaluate root health, trunk integrity, and lean angle to identify true hazards — then remove them safely.
Professional tree fertilization that delivers nutrients where roots can actually use them. Surface fertilizer feeds the lawn — deep-root injection feeds the tree. Real plant health care, not just spreading granules.
Professional tree installation by arborists who know what they are doing — proper depth, mulch ring, watering instructions, and species selection that matches your soil, sun, and space.
Independent expert opinion from ISA-trained arborists — risk assessments, hazard tree reports, plan reviews, and pre-construction tree protection plans for legal, insurance, or HOA needs.
Safe, professional removal of unwanted, oversized, or dying trees. Our certified arborists assess each tree, plan the rigging carefully, and bring it down in controlled sections without damaging structures or landscaping.
Professional shrub and hedge maintenance — formal hedges, foundation plantings, and overgrown ornamentals. We shape with the right tool for each species and the proper timing.
Complete deadwood removal from large mature trees. Our climbers go through the canopy systematically, identifying and removing every dead branch worth taking — safer trees, healthier appearance.
Professional pruning that improves tree health, structure, and longevity. We selectively remove problem branches, reduce wind sail where appropriate, and leave the tree balanced and ready to thrive for years.
Professional stump removal by grinding. We bring the right-sized grinder for the access (handheld for tight spots, track-mounted for big stumps), grind the stump and surface roots, and rake the chips smooth.
Crown reduction service done right — proportional canopy reduction that respects tree biology. Our certified arborists size up each cut to ensure the tree heals cleanly and continues to thrive.
Post-storm cleanup including downed tree removal, broken-limb extraction, and complete debris hauling. We coordinate with insurance adjusters and document the damage as needed.
Total stump and root removal for situations where grinding is not enough. We handle the excavation, removal, back-fill, and final grading — leaving you a clean site ready for whatever comes next.
Bangor property owners count on professional tree crews because the alternative — a friend with a chainsaw — is how serious accidents and lawsuits happen. With 32,538 residents and a full range of mature trees, B. Haney and Sons Arborists provides the equipment, rigging skills, and arborist training that Bangor tree work actually requires. Every crew leader is fully insured, fully equipped, and fully responsible.
Modern arborist science is built on rigging math, ANSI A300 pruning cuts, and ANSI Z133 safety standards. Our ME crews follow all three on every job, deploying the right combination of bucket trucks, climbing gear, and ground equipment for the specific tree and site. That science-based approach saves Bangor property owners money and keeps everyone safe.
We are committed to careful tree work that protects your property, your trees, and your investment.
We tell you when a tree can be saved and when it should come down — even if that means turning down work. Our reputation depends on honest advice, not maximizing every invoice.
Bucket trucks, cranes, climbing gear, rigging blocks, and stump grinders sized for the job. We bring the right equipment to do the work safely and efficiently — never overkill, never under-spec.
Storms, fallen trees, and trees on houses do not wait for business hours and neither do we. Our emergency crews respond around the clock — holidays, weekends, and middle of the night.
Standard service includes hauling all branches and brush, chipping the small wood, raking the work area, and leaving your property cleaner than we found it. No surprise debris-removal fees.
We carry on a tree care tradition rooted in Lombard, Illinois that began in 1940 — bringing decades of arborist knowledge and old-school workmanship to every job we touch.

Yes. B. Haney and Sons Arborists provides tree planting throughout Bangor, ME and we are happy to recommend species that will thrive on your specific site — soil type, sun exposure, mature size, and disease resistance all matter. We do not just plant whatever the customer asks for if we know the species will fail. The right tree in the right place is the foundation of every healthy Bangor landscape.
Warning signs in Bangor trees include large dead branches, mushrooms or conks at the base (indicating root rot), bark falling off in sheets, hollow trunk cavities, sudden lean, recent root disturbance, and crown dieback. A live tree may still be hazardous due to structural defects. Our arborists can perform a paid risk assessment with a written report, or include a basic visual evaluation with any free quote.
Yes. Standard B. Haney and Sons Arborists tree work in Bangor includes hauling the limbs and brush off the property, chipping the small wood, and grinding the stump if requested.

We rake and clean the work site so it looks better than when we arrived.
Yes. Our crews working in Bangor include ISA-trained arborists who follow ANSI A300 pruning standards and ANSI Z133 safety standards.

Our Bangor, ME crews work with chipper trucks, bucket trucks rated to 60+ feet, chainsaws sized for the cut, climbing gear with redundant tie-in points, rigging ropes and lowering blocks, and stump grinders ranging from sidewalk-sized to track-mounted machines.

Honest feedback from property owners who trusted B. Haney and Sons Arborists with their tree care.

"Hazardous tree removal on a leaning oak threatening our house. Crew arrived on time with proper equipment, rigged everything down in sections, and the property was completely safe the entire time. Great communication from quote through cleanup."
"These guys are the real deal. Took down a massive oak that was leaning toward our house. Used a crane, lifted out the canopy in sections, and dropped the trunk in a controlled fall to a tarp on the lawn — no impact damage to anything. Worth every penny."
