Minnetonka Tree Service for Big Lots and Bigger Oaks
Minnetonka is one of the most wooded suburbs in the Twin Cities. Neighborhoods wind through oak woods, lots back up to Minnehaha Creek and wetlands, and plenty of yards have more mature trees than lawn. That tree cover is what makes Minnetonka feel like Minnetonka, and keeping it healthy and safe is most of what we do here.

Caring for Minnetonka's Wooded Neighborhoods
With so many mature oaks, oak wilt is a constant concern. It moves from tree to tree through grafted roots, so one infected red oak can threaten a whole row. We schedule oak pruning in the dormant season and can help you figure out next steps if a tree is showing symptoms.
Emerald ash borer is the other big one. Many Minnetonka yards still have ash, and each one needs a decision: treat it while it's healthy, or take it down before it turns brittle. We'll give you our honest take on each tree.

Minnetonka Tree Care FAQs
Questions Minnetonka homeowners often ask us.
What should I do if I think my oak has oak wilt?
Call an arborist quickly. We can check the symptoms and talk through removal and ways to limit spread to nearby oaks.
Why do you only prune oaks in certain months?
Fresh cuts from April through July attract the beetles that spread oak wilt. Pruning in late fall and winter avoids that risk. See tree trimming and pruning.
Which of my ash trees should I treat?
Healthy, well-placed ash you value are good candidates. Ash already in decline, crowded, or in a poor spot are usually better removed. We'll help you decide.
My yard backs up to a wetland. Can you still remove trees there?
Often, yes, but work near wetlands and Minnehaha Creek can fall under city or watershed district rules. We'll flag it before we start.
Can you clear buckthorn without damaging my oaks?
Yes. We cut buckthorn selectively and leave your oaks' root zones undisturbed. See land clearing.
