Joel took down a scary leaning murder tree that was just waiting to kill somebody foolish enough to mess with it. Amazing skill and professionalism. Highly recommend. Just get in line and patiently wait your turn.

Knutson Tree Service was AMAZING after the March tornado. They removed immediate danger around my driveway and house, even taking care of trees with hidden damage that experts warned could fall later. Their team listened to my concerns, provided expert advice, and left my property spotless—shredding all the wood and sweeping my roof and deck. You wouldn't even know they had been there. Highly recommend for any tree needs!

I used their service last year, and they did a quality job. I have 4 large trees in the yard. When the derecho hit in December we had no problems or cleanup

FAQS

Do you offer free estimates?

Yes! We come to your property, inspect the tree, and give you a no-obligation quote.

Stump Grinding vs. Removal

Stump Grinding uses a machine to shred the stump 6–8 inches below ground, allowing you to cover it with dirt and grass. Stump Removal involves pulling the entire root ball out of the earth, which is much more expensive and leaves a large hole to fill. Most homeowners prefer grinding.

Can I buy firewood from you?

Yes! We offer seasoned firewood, wood chips for landscaping, and various cuts of lumber. Please check our inventory page or give us a call to see what species (Oak, Maple, Walnut, etc.) we currently have in stock.
