Residential Tree Removal
Tree Removal in Minneapolis & the Twin Cities
Safe, controlled removal of dead, damaged, crowded or hazardous trees from residential properties — including the cleanup afterward.
Some Trees Simply Need to Come Down
A tree that is dead, hollow, storm-split or leaning further each season stops being a landscaping question and becomes a property risk. Minnesota winters and summer storms put steady stress on mature hardwoods, and Emerald Ash Borer has left many Twin Cities ash trees brittle and unsafe to leave standing.
Removal near a house is a rigging job, not just a cutting job. Sections come down in a planned order so nothing lands on a roof, fence, deck, garage or garden bed. Tight backyards, narrow side yards and trees over structures all change the approach.
What the Job Includes
On-Site Assessment
We look at lean, decay, targets below and access before quoting the work.
Controlled Sectioning
Ropes and rigging lower limbs and trunk sections instead of dropping them.
Property Protection
Work paths and drop zones are planned around lawn, hardscape and structures.
Full Cleanup
Limbs chipped, wood removed and the work area raked out before we leave.
Stump Options
Stumps can be ground down in the same visit — just ask when you book.
