"I did not hire this company because they are not insured. Our trees are very old and large and extremely close to the house. I hired another company that is insured."

Customers say: Quick response

"These guys are awesome. If your needing good tree service quickly and affordable these are your go to guys for all tree services. They cut down two big trees that where concern because they where dead and a liability to my neighbor properties. They showed when they said they would and worked until complete. Clean up was good and almost like they where never there. If I could give them 10 stars I would. It is apparent I will recommend these guys to everyone for their tree services. Thank you for your hard work and service. Thank you, Jared"

"The best tree removal I've ever experienced. I had a 50+ foot maple overhanging my garage and another just as tall close by. Bernie examined the second tree and suggested that it be removed, as well, because there were indications that the "heart" of the tree had rotted. Turned out he was right. Bernie's crew arrived on time. They were courteous, efficient, and they were well-equipped. Because of the location of the trees, they had to be de-limbed before they were cut. Their Track-Lift made the operation safer than climbing and cutting. Once the limbs had been cut and lowered to the ground, they cut lengths of the tree off from the top. All well controlled, well coordinated, and safe. After that, per contract, they removed the limbs. We kept the trunks for fire wood. Then they raked the debris from the driveway and used a leaf-blower to finish the job. I couldn't have asked for better service. It was a pleasure watching them work."

Tree Service questions, answered by experts

Generally, you should prune around 20% of an apple tree’s growth—and never more than 30%. This means that if you have a severely overgrown tree, it can take a few seasons to prune it back enough to produce the healthiest fruit. 

If you’re dealing with a newly planted or juvenile tree, hold off on pruning beyond the initial shaping. Wait at least a couple of seasons into fruit production since pruning can increase the number of water sprouts and unproductive foliage.

Yes, the same rules discussed above apply to your neighbor: They can trim one of your trees as long as they’re only cutting the portion that extends into their property. Your neighbor is not allowed to access your property without permission, nor can they cut past the property line. 

It’s not as common for Dutch elm disease to affect other types of trees, especially if the surrounding trees aren’t elms. However, it is possible for DED to spread to other trees, particularly in northern states, like Minnesota. In fact, it’s a good idea to use geography to identify wood and determine which types of trees are in your yard. 

Unfortunately, the complex and shallow root system of elm trees makes surrounding elm trees particularly vulnerable to DED. Early discovery is key!

Tree roots don’t necessarily break through concrete on their own, but they can certainly take advantage of existing cracks, even very small ones. As roots grow, they expand the cracks, making them larger and leading to serious and costly foundation damage. It’s a good idea to have repairs on any foundation cracks you’re concerned about.

Some trees will bounce back just fine, and others will struggle and possibly die. Evergreens, for instance, have a very difficult time recovering after droughts and usually die after periods of extreme dryness. Usually, you’ll have to just wait and see—if the drought occurs in wintertime, it’s possible that your tree will recover during the gentler springtime.
