"I hired Goettl Tree Service during the first week of December 2023. I put out a Work Order per Angie's and was contacted by Tim Goettl. Tim was out to look at the Tree Trimming Project that I needed to have done in less than 24hrs and gave a Bid and time period in which the job could be done. I also had some other Tree Services give me Bids for the Job on hand and found Goettl Tree Service to be the best Tree Service for the job. I was able to work out a project date to have the work completed and it was Done & Completed on December 8, 2023. I was very satisfied with the Tree Service and Job Performance provided for my Tree Trimming Project. I will use Goettl Tree Services in the future and would recommend them to Friends & Family. Great Job Thank You Steve P Eden Prairie, Mn"

"I was very protective of how much limbing had to be done. We had some sick branches up high and we were concerned about loosing the tree altogether at some point. Jesse kept assureing me that it would fill back in and it would be ok. Only time will tell on that account, at this time I am confindent he knows that it will. All and all good experince.

"Did a good job. Needed one, of two, stumps ground down. Because it took less than his estimated time he did the other one too. The only thing I didn't like is his equipment tore up some of my yard. But yes, I would recommend him."

Arborists questions, answered by experts

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.

The best time to trim trees is in late fall through winter when the tree has slowed its growing for the year. Cold weather stops insects and fungal growth from attacking a new tree wound. Summer and fall are considered the worst times to trim trees, but it’s permissible in certain scenarios, such as tree disease, damaged branches, or small, aesthetic cuts.

In most cases, you should not use a pruning seal on trees after trimming. Applying a sealant can interfere with the tree's natural healing process, and it does not guarantee protection from pathogens. Instead of sealing the cut, the best practice is to support the tree's natural recovery by providing it with plenty of water and a dormant-style fertilizer. However, there are exceptions. Pruning seals may be recommended for very vulnerable species, like elm trees, in areas where dangerous diseases such as Dutch elm disease are prevalent. In these specific situations, the protection offered by a sealant can outweigh its downsides. For advice tailored to your situation, especially after cutting large branches, it is best to consult a local tree trimming professional.

If you don’t cut down a dead, dying, or diseased tree, it can become a nesting place for pests like mosquitos, bees, beetles, wasps, fly larvae, and more. Some pests will live in the tree, while others will feed off the decaying wood. Unhealthy trees are also more likely to fall over, potentially injuring people and causing damage to your property.

Palm tree removal can cost anywhere between $100 and $1,800 depending on palm size, tree condition, labor, location, and the amount of prep work involved. With the necessary skills, a DIY palm tree removal for trees shorter than 15 feet can lower costs. However, it’s generally recommended that you hire a palm tree expert for tree removal.
