Tree Trimming in Rochester

Rochester Tree Trimming Pros provides tree trimming throughout Rochester and the greater Rochester, MN area.

Rochester is the largest city in southeastern Minnesota and home to Mayo Clinic, which drives a dense mix of older residential neighborhoods and fast-growing newer subdivisions. Housing stock ranges from early 1900s craftsman homes near downtown to 2000s-era developments on the city's southwest edge. The city's urban tree canopy is substantial, and boulevard trees along older streets are now large enough to cause real problems. Tree work here is steady year-round because of the sheer volume of properties.

Rochester gets real winters. Ice storms hit the Southeast Heights and Folwell neighborhoods hard, and silver maple branches — which snap faster than most people expect — end up on roofs, fences, and power lines. A lot of the trees in this area were planted in the 1960s and 1970s when those neighborhoods were built, which means they're big now and overdue for attention. Ignoring overgrown or cracked limbs doesn't save money. It usually means a bigger cleanup bill later, or a call to your insurance company.

We look at the whole tree before we touch it — where the weight is sitting, which limbs are dead or cracked, and what's underneath. Cutting the wrong branch in the wrong order can split a trunk or drop a limb somewhere you didn't plan, so we work top-down with the right equipment for the size of the job.
