Tree Removal in Central MN & the West Metro
When a tree becomes a hazard or stands in the way of your plans, TreeTec is here to help. We provide safe, professional tree removal services across the West Metro, including Minnetonka, Wayzata, Edina, and Central MN. Whether you're dealing with a dead tree, storm damage, or preparing for construction, we make the removal process efficient and worry-free.
When Should You Remove a Tree?
It’s not always obvious when a tree needs to come down. Here are the most common reasons our clients call us for removal:
-
Dead or Dying Trees
These trees become brittle over time and are more likely to fall, posing safety risks. -
Storm Damage
Trees that are split, leaning, or have major limb loss after a storm may no longer be structurally sound. -
Disease or Infestation
Some tree diseases and pests spread rapidly. Infected trees may need to be removed to protect the rest of your landscape. -
Risk to Structures
Trees too close to homes, driveways, or power lines can become a liability and may require removal. -
Construction or Landscaping Projects
When a tree interferes with new construction, home additions, or major landscaping work, removal may be necessary to move forward.
