ISA-Certified Arborists · Fully Insured · Serving Minneapolis and the Twin Cities Since 2006
You’ll speak with our scheduling team, who will arrange a visit from a certified arborist, not a salesperson.
Send a photo to give our certified arborist the info they need to schedule you for an estimate.
“Instead of trimming all of our trees, which he had originally quoted, he encouraged us to wait until the fall.”
“I was told by 2 landscaping companies that they would have to be cut down, but they now look like they are on the way to recovery.”
Usually: Dieback. Sometimes treatable, sometimes the beginning of the end. It needs a diagnosis before anything else.
Usually: A structural problem, and the tree’s size and lean decide how urgent it is.
Usually: Clearance pruning. Almost never a removal.
Usually: Root plate movement. Get eyes on it quickly.
Usually: Emerald ash borer. Timing decides whether treatment is still an option.
Usually: An access problem more than a tree problem, and the answer is usually a crane.
Usually: Grinding, and it is a separate job from the removal.
Usually: The most common call we get, and the one where the free estimate earns its keep.
An ISA-Certified Arborist looks at the tree, the access, and what is around it, and builds the plan around your property.
The method, the equipment, cleanup, timing, and the price, in writing before anyone starts a saw. Alex M.: “They stick to their estimates and there are no surprises.”
Ground protection mats, plywood, and a mapped equipment path before anything moves. Your lawn and driveway are part of the job, not collateral damage.
Climbers, aerial lifts, boom truck and crane assist, chippers and grinders, chosen for your site rather than for our convenience.
Brush, logs and sawdust gone, the site raked and blown clean. One customer put it best: they “even took leaf blowers to fluff up the grass.”
We walk the job with you, so nothing is discovered after the truck has gone.
“This is our home. We take care of it and work extremely hard to get the exact work necessary done and leave the property in a clean and orderly fashion. Every single time.”
“Instead of trimming all of our trees, which he had originally quoted, he encouraged us to wait until the fall.”
“They raked up all the debris and even took leaf blowers to fluff up the grass. Seriously!”
“They stick to their estimates and there are no surprises… They’ve taken down some huge trees for me in tight spots without any damage.”
That is what the free estimate is for, and it is the most useful thing we do. A certified arborist looks at the tree’s condition, structure, lean and surroundings, then tells you whether it needs removal, pruning, treatment, or nothing at all this year. You get that answer in writing whether or not you hire us.
No. An ISA-Certified Arborist comes out, looks at the tree, and gives you a written estimate with the scope, the price, the cleanup and the schedule. There is no charge and no obligation.
Our own crew does the work, led by an ISA-Certified Arborist, with our own equipment including the boom truck. Nothing gets handed to a subcontractor you have never met.
Yes. Urban Tree & Landscape is fully licensed and insured and carries MN Tree Care Registry #20190969. Ask for the certificate of insurance and we will send it before the job, not after.
Yes. Winter is often the best time for large removals and structural pruning: the ground is firm, the canopy is bare so the structure is visible, and there is less to damage in the beds. Emergency work runs all year.
Planned work is typically scheduled within days to a couple of weeks depending on the season and the equipment needed. Emergencies are different, call and we respond same-day.
Based in Maple Grove and working across the Twin Cities metro: Minneapolis, St. Paul, Plymouth, Brooklyn Park, Blaine, Coon Rapids, Champlin, Osseo, Rogers, Golden Valley, St. Louis Park, Edina, Minnetonka, Eden Prairie, Bloomington and Roseville, with emergency service across Hennepin, Anoka, Sherburne and Wright counties.
Yes, and we do it often enough that customers write reviews about it. If a tree can be saved with pruning or treatment, or if the right move is to wait and look again in a couple of years, that is what you will be told, even though it costs us the job.
You will talk to a certified arborist. Not a salesperson.
