Tree Removal in Cottage Grove, MN

Tree removal in Cottage Grove can range from taking down a single hazard tree in a tight backyard to removing multiple trees for a remodel or addition. We remove trees when they are:

  • Dead, severely decayed, or clearly unsafe
  • Leaning toward your house, garage, shed, or neighbor’s property
  • Heavily storm‑damaged from wind or ice off the river valley
  • Crowding each other or blocking key sunlight for lawns and gardens
  • In the way of decks, patios, additions, or driveway projects

We use safe, sectional removal techniques and the right equipment to protect your home, fences, landscaping, and nearby structures.

Tree Trimming & Pruning in Cottage Grove

Regular trimming and pruning help Cottage Grove’s trees stand up to storms and fit neatly into busy neighborhoods. Our trimming and pruning services:

  • Remove dead and broken limbs over homes, sidewalks, and streets
  • Improve clearance over driveways, curb lines, and walkways
  • Thin dense canopies to reduce storm damage and increase light for grass
  • Shape younger trees so they grow strong and balanced
  • Keep your property looking neat and well maintained from the street

We avoid harsh topping and improper cuts, focusing on work that supports long‑term tree health and safety.

Stump Grinding for Lawns & New Projects

Old stumps make mowing harder and can be a safety issue in family yards. Our stump grinding service in Cottage Grove:

  • Removes stumps from front and back yards, boulevards, and play areas
  • Eliminates trip hazards near patios, swing sets, and paths
  • Prepares sites for new landscaping, fences, sheds, or additions
  • Cleans up old stumps left from previous work or storm damage

We adjust grinding depth to match your future plans, whether that’s lawn, planting beds, or hardscape.

  • Broken limbs are hanging dangerously over sidewalks, decks, or play areas
