"Elliot and his crew did excellent work for us after a big storm, cutting up trees that had fallen across our road and cleaning up nicely before they left - fast, efficient, responsive, flexible and offered fair prices. I will definitely use them again, and recommend them enthusiastically to neighbors! Colin M., Deer River MN"

Lost Lake Construction is a veteran-owned company based in northern Minnesota. I'm Dave Berry — I've spent 20+ years in the trades and run a crew of four, so we handle everything from a single afternoon's work to a full-scale build.\nBig job or small, we do it: junk removal and hauling, landscaping and yard cleanup, brush clearing, kitchen and bath remodels, basement finishing, decks, siding, roofing, concrete, painting, and general handyman work. We also specialize in custom fine finish carpentry, log construction, and standing seam metal roofing — the kind of work most crews around here won't take on.\nI'm a licensed Minnesota Residential Building Contractor (BC809295) and fully insured. You'll deal with me directly, not a call center. Free estimates, straight pricing, and a clean job site when we leave.\nGive me a call and let's talk about what you need done.

"Lars and crew are very hard working and provided excellent service with removal of 10 trees. Several were hanging over the house and were removed safely without any damage to roof. Clean up after removal was very well done. Would highly recommend and will hire again for tree removal and stump grinding."

Arborists FAQs, answered by experts

As a general rule, the protected area should be about 1½ times as wide as the canopy of the tree’s leaves. This digging measurement can vary by tree species and the age of the tree. Of course, that can be a lot of fencing for larger trees, which is why our first step is about making difficult decisions on which trees to save.

Trees should be pruned every two to five years, depending on its age and type. Young trees should be inspected and pruned every two to three years. Mature trees should be inspected and trimmed every three to five years, and fruit trees should be pruned annually with a careful eye on seasonal growth. Evergreens typically don’t need pruning, unless branches or limbs are damaged, diseased, or harboring pests.

Bleach can potentially kill some types of delicate ornamental trees, but for the most part, it will only kill the foliage it comes in contact with. Applying bleach is not an effective method of killing a tree. A better option is to use an herbicide, which is a chemical compound designed to effectively kill a tree. 

DIY is risky and not recommended for large trees; professional services ensure safe removal and proper disposal.

Tree roots are hearty and complex systems, so they don’t die immediately after the rest of the tree is removed. If you leave the root system in place, it takes anywhere from two to seven years for it to run out of nutrients. It is worth noting, however, that the roots stop growing and expanding after cutting down the rest of the tree.
