Why Tree Trimming Matters

Tree trimming isn’t just about looks — it’s one of the most important steps in maintaining safe, healthy trees.

Regular trimming by a certified professional helps to:

• Remove dead or diseased branches before they fall or spread decay
• Reduce storm damage risk by lightening heavy limbs and improving airflow
• Protect homes and power lines by clearing safe clearance zones
• Promote healthy growth by allowing better sunlight and nutrient distribution
• Increase property value and curb appeal with clean, balanced canopies

Our ISA Certified Arborist assesses each tree’s species, growth pattern, and condition to determine what should be trimmed — and just as importantly, what should not. With TreeTec, your trees receive the right care at the right time.

What’s Included in Our Tree Trimming Service

Every tree and property is different, so we customize each trimming project to your specific goals and the condition of your trees. Our standard trimming service includes:

• On-site inspection by our ISA Certified Arborist
• Targeted branch removal to eliminate deadwood and reduce risk
• Crown thinning and shaping for improved light and airflow
• Clearance trimming around roofs, driveways, and utilities
• Storm preparation trimming to minimize wind or ice damage
• Full cleanup — all branches and debris hauled away, leaving your yard spotless

We never over-trim or “top” trees — instead, we use proper reduction techniques to maintain natural form and long-term health.

Our Safe and Efficient Process

TreeTec follows a careful, step-by-step process to ensure your trimming project is completed safely and efficiently.

1. Assessment & Estimate – Our Arborist inspects each tree, noting structure, risk, and your trimming goals.
2. Planning & Setup – Equipment and access are arranged to protect your lawn, gardens, and hardscapes.
3. Professional Trimming – Crews make clean, proper cuts using ropes, pole saws, and bucket trucks as needed.
4. Cleanup & Disposal – Brush, branches, and wood are chipped, hauled, or stacked neatly on request.
5. Final Review – We walk the property with you to confirm satisfaction and answer questions.

You’ll see the difference in our attention to detail, respect for your property, and the health of your trees.

How Often Should Trees Be Trimmed?

Most mature trees in Central Minnesota benefit from trimming every 2–4 years. Fast-growing trees may need more frequent attention, especially near homes, roofs, or driveways.

Newly planted or young trees benefit from light, regular trimming to establish strong structure early. Our Arborist can recommend a maintenance schedule tailored to your property’s unique needs.

Tree Trimming Costs in Cokato & Central Minnesota

Tree trimming costs depend on size, access, and scope, but TreeTec provides clear, upfront estimates with no hidden fees.

We’ll evaluate your property, explain options, and provide a written estimate before any work begins.

Storm & Hazard Tree Trimming
