Tree service in Fort Collins, CO

Fort Collins covers a wide range of property types and tree care conditions across its four main areas. Old Town's Victorian-era and Craftsman bungalows sit on tight lots with mature trees that have been growing since the early 1900s, while south Fort Collins neighborhoods like Fossil Lake Ranch and Kechter Farm feature newer master-planned homes with young landscape plantings. The west side near Horsetooth Reservoir has larger lots with significant tree canopy and direct exposure to the downslope winds that funnel off the foothills. North Fort Collins carries more affordable, mid-century housing stock where trees have matured but may not have received consistent professional care. Across all of these areas, emerald ash borer is confirmed and active, and the city's wind exposure makes structural tree failures a recurring issue.

Tree Service

Fort Collins Tree Care from Old Town to the South Suburbs

Old Town Fort Collins has some of the oldest residential trees in northern Colorado. Elms, cottonwoods, and ash trees on these lots have been growing for 80 to 120 years, and they need a different approach than the young trees in a new south-side subdivision. Our ISA-certified approach means we assess the tree's structure and health before recommending any work, rather than applying a one-size-fits-all pruning schedule.

Fort Collins's west side near Horsetooth Reservoir sees some of the strongest downslope winds in the region. Trees on those larger lots face repeated mechanical stress that can crack branch unions and create hidden structural defects. We look for those failure points during trimming and diagnostic assessments, so you are not caught off guard when the next wind event hits.

We are a locally owned, family-run business based in Berthoud, just south of Fort Collins on US-287. We carry full insurance and ISA certification, and we offer free estimates across the city. Whether your property is in the historic Old Town core, a mid-century north-side neighborhood, or a newer community near Harmony Road, we give you a clear assessment and a straight price.

Every service, available in Fort Collins, CO

Tree trimming is the backbone of our Fort Collins work, from structural pruning on Old Town's mature elms and ash trees to early-stage pruning on young trees in south Fort Collins subdivisions like Bucking Horse and Fox Grove. Tree removal is in high demand across the city as emerald ash borer continues to spread, and ash trees in Fort Collins's established neighborhoods are now reaching the point where removal is often the more practical choice. Shrub trimming keeps landscape plantings in check across the city's dense suburban corridors, and diagnostic assessments help homeowners in every neighborhood make informed decisions about large or declining trees before they become emergencies. Emergency storm damage response is also a regular part of our work given the city's exposure to Front Range wind events.

Tree Service FAQ for Fort Collins, CO

Common questions from Fort Collins, CO customers about our services, process, and coverage.

Most mature trees in Old Town benefit from a structural assessment and pruning every three to five years, though dead or hazardous wood should be removed whenever it appears. Trees near structures, power lines, or pedestrian areas warrant more frequent attention. The right interval depends on the species, the tree's current condition, and how much the canopy has grown since the last pruning.

Yes. EAB is confirmed in Fort Collins and across the northern Front Range, and it kills untreated ash trees. Fort Collins has a significant ash population in its older neighborhoods, and many of those trees are now large enough that removal becomes a major project once the wood turns brittle. A diagnostic assessment now helps you plan ahead rather than respond to an emergency.

Yes. Shrub trimming is a regular service in south Fort Collins neighborhoods like Kechter Farm, Fossil Lake Ranch, and Bucking Horse, where landscape plantings installed at build-out have grown past their original footprint. We trim to maintain clearance from structures and walkways while keeping plants healthy and shaped correctly for their species.

Yes. Repeated downslope wind stress can crack branch unions and create internal decay that is not visible from the ground. Trees on the west side of Fort Collins near the reservoir corridor are particularly exposed. A diagnostic assessment can identify those hidden structural issues before a wind event turns them into an emergency.
