The City of Milwaukee DPW Forestry Services manages about 190,000 street trees, along with boulevards, landscapes, and green spaces. That is a big canopy, and most of it grows on public land that the city looks after.
The trees on your own property are your responsibility, and removing a dangerous or unwanted one is work for trained professionals. If a tree is on the terrace between the sidewalk and the street, check with the city before any work begins.
Emerald ash borer was confirmed in Milwaukee in 2012, and the city says it can kill an ash tree within two to four years. To help homeowners prepare, DPW Forestry identified and mapped more than 15,000 parcels in the city with ash trees at risk.
If you have an ash on your lot that is thinning or dying, we can tell you whether treatment still makes sense or removal is the safer course.
A dead ash becomes brittle and dangerous quickly.
Wind and lightning can split trunks and tear limbs.
Fungus, deadwood, and hollow trunks signal failure.
Big trees near homes, garages, and wires are best removed on your terms.
We inspect the tree and give you a clear, free quote.
