They helped explain the options and gave multiple solutions for us to consider. Appreciate the great work they did and would definitely call them again if the need arises. Highly recommend.

When Minnesota storms bring trees down, we move fast.
Minnesota storms hit hard. Strong winds, ice, and lightning can bring trees down in seconds. Our teams are based across Minneapolis, Edina, Eden Prairie, and nearby cities so we can move quickly when disaster strikes.
According to the National Weather Service Twin Cities/Chanhassen (MPX), the region averages over 40 severe thunderstorm days a year. That's why we've built a system for fast, efficient response, even during widespread outages.
Whether it's a downed elm in South St. Paul, a massive oak in Belle Plaine, or dangerous cottonwoods leaning over your house, we have the gear and experience to handle it.
Field insight:
Emerald ash borer, Dutch elm disease, and heavy snow and ice loads leave Twin Cities trees brittle and unpredictable. We use cranes, rigging, and precision cutting to bring down large oaks, elms, and cottonwoods without adding to the damage.

Common Tree Challenges in Minneapolis
Every species fails its own way under load. Knowing those patterns lets us clear the hazard without starting a new one.
American Elm
Prone to Dutch elm disease and catastrophic breakage in high winds
Bur Oak
Heavy limbs can fail during snow and ice storms, causing serious damage
Maple (Silver, Norway)
Weak wood and wide canopies lead to major limb loss in storms
Ash
Emerald ash borer infestations make trees brittle and dangerous to keep standing
Cottonwood
Shallow root systems make them especially vulnerable in saturated soils
Minneapolis Tree Regulations
Emergency removal of an immediate hazard or a tree already down is generally allowed without delay. Non-emergency removal of boulevard and park trees falls under the Minneapolis Park & Recreation Board's forestry division, which manages the city's public trees.
When power lines are involved, we coordinate with Xcel Energy first to de-energize or clear the lines, then perform the removal and secure your property. We advise you based on local guidelines.

Frequently Asked Questions: Minneapolis Tree Emergencies
How fast can you respond to a tree emergency in Minneapolis?
For trees on a structure, blocking your driveway, or tangled in lines, our crews typically arrive within 1–2 hours, day or night, even during major storm events. Lower-risk calls are triaged by safety, with same- or next-day service across the Twin Cities metro.
Will my insurance cover emergency tree removal in Minnesota?
Most Minnesota homeowner policies cover removal when a tree damages an insured structure such as your home, garage, or fence. If a tree falls without structural damage, coverage varies by policy. We document the scene and work directly with major Minnesota insurers to help speed approval.
Do I need a permit to remove a storm-damaged tree in Minneapolis?
Emergency removal of an immediate hazard or a tree already down on private property is generally allowed right away. Boulevard and park trees fall under the Minneapolis Park & Recreation Board's forestry division. We advise you and handle any required coordination.
What should I do if a tree hits a power line in Minneapolis?
Treat every downed line as live. Stay back at least 50 feet, keep others and pets away, and report it to Xcel Energy. Don't touch fences or standing water near the tree. Once the utility de-energizes the scene, our crew removes the tree safely.
Can you handle ash trees weakened by emerald ash borer?
Yes. EAB leaves ash trees brittle and unpredictable, and they can fail suddenly in wind, snow, or ice. Our certified arborists remove compromised ash safely with cranes and rigging before they come down on a home or vehicle.
