About Mailes Tree Service

Wildcat Park's oak canopy runs right along the bluffs above Shoal Creek, thick enough in summer to shade the whole trail below and heavy enough in an ice storm to bow branches down toward the water. Mailes Tree Service works similarly wooded properties elsewhere in Joplin, clearing the drives and walks that sit under that kind of canopy once a storm has passed through and the ice has had its say. Knowing which branch is likely to let go and which will hold is as much a part of clearing a driveway here as running the blade itself. The creek below keeps flowing dark against all that white, a thin steady line through a suddenly quiet park. Leaving a walk clear under trees that are still creaking with ice overhead is a job that asks for patience before speed.
