Specialized Services for the 95746 Community

Blue Oak & Heritage Tree Preservation
Granite Bay is one of the few areas where the drought-tolerant Blue Oak (Quercus douglasii) thrives. These trees are highly sensitive to overwatering and soil compaction. Our ISA-certified approach includes:
 
  • Root Zone Management: Protecting the delicate "dripline" of your oaks from landscaping damage.
 
  • Specialized Pruning: We avoid over-thinning, which can lead to "sunscald" and structural failure in our hot Mediterranean summers.
 
  • Health Diagnostics: Identifying signs of Mediterranean Oak Borer or Anthracnose before they compromise your canopy.

View Restoration & Aesthetic Thinning
For properties in the Hidden Valley or Los Lagos neighborhoods, trees are often the key to both privacy and a beautiful view. We specialize in Windowing and Crown Reduction, techniques that open up vistas toward the Sierra Nevada or the lake without sacrificing the tree’s health or your property’s privacy.

Fire Fuel Reduction & Defensible Space
With Granite Bay’s proximity to wildland-urban interfaces, fire safety is a priority. We help homeowners meet Placer County defensible space requirements by:
  • Removing highly flammable "ladder fuels" (low-hanging branches).
 
  • Clearing brush and deadwood from the perimeter of your home.
 
  • Providing chipping services to turn debris into moisture-retaining mulch.

Frequently Asked Questions About Local Granite Bay Tree Services

Do I need a permit for tree removal on my Granite Bay property?
In Granite Bay, tree removal is governed by the Placer County Tree Preservation Ordinance. You generally need a Minor Tree Permit to remove any "Protected Tree," which includes native oaks (like Blue, Valley, or Interior Live Oaks) with a trunk diameter of 6 inches or larger. If the tree is dead or poses an immediate hazard to your home, Economy Tree Service Inc can assist with documentation to expedite the process through the Placer County Planning Services Division.

How do I protect my Blue Oaks during a landscape renovation?
Blue Oaks are iconic to Granite Bay but highly sensitive to changes in their environment. To prevent decline, it is critical to avoid:
 
  • Overwatering: Native oaks should not have irrigation near the trunk.
 
  • Soil Compaction: Heavy machinery should never be parked under the tree's "dripline."
 
  • Grade Changes: Adding or removing soil within the root zone can suffocate the tree. We offer root zone assessments and can install protective fencing to ensure your heritage trees survive your construction project.


What are the "Defensible Space" requirements for Granite Bay estates?
Under 2026 California regulations and Placer County code, homes in the Granite Bay wildland-urban interface must maintain 100 feet of defensible space. This includes:
 
  • Zone 0 (0-5 ft): Removing all combustible vegetation and dead branches near the structure.
 
  • Zone 1 (5-30 ft): Thinning trees to maintain 10 feet of space between crowns.
 
  • Zone 2 (30-100 ft): Removing "ladder fuels" (low branches) that could allow a ground fire to climb into the canopy.

​​​​​​​
Why does my tree have "sawdust" on the bark and thinning leaves?
This is often a sign of the Mediterranean Oak Borer (MOB) or Bark Beetles, both of which are active in the 95746 area. These pests target drought-stressed trees and can lead to rapid "dieback." As a local tree service near me, we provide specialized systemic treatments and health-boosting soil injections to help your trees resist these infestations.

Can you prune my trees to restore my view of Folsom Lake?
Yes. We specialize in Windowing and Lace Thinning. These techniques involve the strategic removal of specific branches to create a "window" through the canopy toward the lake or mountains. This restores your view without "topping" the tree or compromising the privacy that your mature landscape provides.
