"Had a 100-foot water oak removed and couldn’t be happier with how everything went. The tree was in a tight spot between my home and a shed, but the crew handled it with skill and precision. They showed up right on time, did exactly what they said they would, and kept me informed throughout the whole process. Communication was clear and consistent, which made a big job feel easy. They worked efficiently, safely, and left the area clean when they were done. It’s not often you find a company that delivers this level of professionalism start to finish. Highly recommend them if you need tree work done."

"The crew was very courteous and pruned according to my instructions--did not over prune. They did a nice job of cleaning up and took care not to damage plants and shrubs in the process. The owner is a certified Arborist and couldn't have been nicer. I would absolutely call on him again.

"Excellent...called me back the same day and made an appointment for someone to come out and give an estimate. That person showed up on time and gave me an estimate that same afternoon via email. I accepted the offer and was emailed a time they could grind my stump which I accepted. The person they sent was on time and did a great job. These guys are terrific and very professional. I will definitely use this tree service again!!!!!"

Arborists FAQs, answered by experts

It will take you anywhere from 15 minutes to two hours per tree stump to grind and remove the stump from the ground. The larger the size, the longer it will take to remove the stump. Also, keep in mind that rocky soil may require local excavation services to loosen up large boulders before you can begin to remove the tree stump.

Dead tree branches should be removed, because they can cause the tree to lose nutrients. They can also make the tree more susceptible to disease and pests. Removing dead and diseased branches can help the tree recover and increase the odds of saving a dying tree. Make sure to prune the tree correctly to avoid damaging it further.

The felling notch you make before you make the final cut will determine which way the tree will fall. The cut will be in a wedge or triangle, and the tree will fall from the highest point of the triangle. You can use this, as well as the process described above, to estimate where a tree will fall. 

The ideal time to prune a tree depends on the type of tree. Typically, late winter or early spring is a good time to prune but isn't always the case for "towering trees." It's best to trim when trees are dormant and before blooms appear but can vary depending on the tree type. It's always best to research the type of tree or ask a professional tree trimmer to determine when is the perfect time to prune your tree.

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!
