Even though it might seem easy enough to do yourself, removing trees can be dangerous if done improperly. Serious injuries or property damage could result from a small error that sends a branch crashing downward. A qualified arborist can safely and swiftly remove the tree without causing any damage to the remainder of your property.
MTD Tree & Landscape provides a variety of tree removal techniques based on the size and location of your tree. We frequently use tree climbers to manually cut down limbs and branches of a dead or dying tree. They can climb up by themselves using a ladder or rope, or they can cut from the safety of a crane or bucket truck if the tree is particularly tall or otherwise inaccessible.
MTD Tree & Landscape can perform tree removal services at any time of year. We recommend scheduling a service as soon as possible, especially if you have a high-risk tree that is showing signs of decay or damage.

Trees too close to structures or power lines, or those that are dead, dying, or structurally unsound, pose risks. If a tree has a disease or infestation that cannot be treated, removal may be necessary. Tree removal may be required for construction or landscaping projects.
If you are inexperienced, pruning trees yourself can be very risky. It is best to let the professionals handle tree pruning for everyone's safety.
We generally recommend pruning trees between late winter and early spring. This timeframe corresponds perfectly to your trees' natural growth cycle, so they are primed and ready to thrive when the warm spring arrives.
You might be tempted to prune your trees and shrubs as soon as you discover an issue, but time is essential. We normally advise against pruning in early fall due to a number of crucial reasons. Trees and shrubs require enough time to recuperate from trimming before winter arrives, and fall pruning does not provide this critical recovery period. Furthermore, open wounds from trimming might make your plants more susceptible to frost damage, which is a major worry during our hard winters. The combination of open injuries and cold, rainy weather creates an excellent setting for fungal diseases to spread, compromising the health of your plants. Waiting for the right time to prune ensures your landscape's long-term health. Remember, patience today will result in stronger, healthier plants in the future!
