🌿 Tree Trimming & Pruning — ISA Certified, Oak Wilt-Safe

Proper pruning is one of the most important investments you can make in your trees — and one of the easiest to get wrong. Our ISA-certified arborists follow ANSI A300 standards on every job, which means no topping, no flush cuts, and strict oak wilt protocols during the high-risk season (April–July). Whether you need crown thinning, clearance pruning over a roof, or deadwood removal across a mature canopy, we do it right the first time.

• Crown thinning, raising, and structural reduction
• Oak wilt-safe pruning with wound sealant during high-risk months
• Deadwood and hazard branch removal
• Fruit and ornamental tree pruning
• Clearance from roofs, gutters, and power lines
• Full debris cleanup and haul-away included

🪓 Tree Removal — Done Right, Every Time

We’ve been removing trees in Madison since 2009 — storm-split silver maples in Atwood after June derechos, 80-foot white oaks in Shorewood Hills with eight inches of clearance from the roofline, and hundreds of dying ash trees from Middleton backyards as the Emerald Ash Borer worked its way through Dane County. Every removal starts with a proper assessment — not a two-minute walk before writing a number on a napkin. We evaluate the lean, the root structure, the drop zones, and the neighbors’ property before we start cutting.

• Trees of any size — from small ornamentals to 80-foot hardwoods
• Tight spaces near structures, fences, and utilities
• Dead, storm-damaged, and diseased tree removal
• Emerald Ash Borer and other pest-affected trees
• Hazardous lean, root heave, and structural failure
• Complete cleanup — wood, brush, and debris hauled away

🪨 Stump Grinding & Removal

A leftover stump is a tripping hazard, a pest magnet, and an eyesore that mowers have to work around for years. Our stump grinding service eliminates stumps — ground 6–12 inches below grade— so you can replant, sod, or build over the spot without any trace of what was there. We handle stumps of any size and in any location, including tight backyard spaces where large equipment can’t reach. Wood chips are left for mulch or hauled away- your call.

• Grinding 6–12 inches below grade — no chemical treatments
• Surface roots addressed in the same visit
• Any size, any location, including tight spaces
• Wood chip mulch left on-site or completely removed
• Ready for replanting, sodding, or construction immediately after

Frequently Asked Questions

How much does tree service cost in Madison, WI?

Do you offer emergency tree removal in Madison?

Yes — 24/7, including weekends and holidays. Call (608) 555-1234 any time, and we’ll dispatch a crew as quickly as possible. We’ve responded to derechos, ice storms, and overnight emergencies across Dane County for over 15 years.

Is it safe to trim oaks in summer in Madison?

It depends on timing. Oak wilt is a serious risk in Wisconsin from April through July. We follow strict protocols during the high-risk season — using wound sealant on all cuts to prevent the beetles that spread the fungus. If you’re unsure about timing, call us, and we’ll advise you on the safest window.
