How do you protect my yard from ruts and damage while moving heavy tree sections?

We use specialized ground protection mats to distribute the weight of our equipment, ensuring your lawn remains undisturbed even during large-scale removals. For particularly sensitive lakefront properties or tight residential lots, we often utilize high-reach cranes to lift debris directly out of the yard, completely avoiding the need to drag heavy logs across your turf.

What is the benefit of cabling and bracing for a structurally weak tree?

Cabling and bracing involve installing high-strength steel cables or rigid rods to provide supplemental support to trees with split trunks or weak branch attachments. This proactive system redistributes the weight load, allowing you to preserve high-value or sentimental trees for decades while significantly reducing the risk of failure during high winds or heavy snow.

How do you determine if a tree needs to be removed versus treated for a disease?

Our ISA-certified arborists perform a comprehensive assessment of the tree’s canopy, trunk integrity, and root flare to identify specific indicators of internal decay or pest infestation. If the structural core is sound, we will recommend a targeted plant healthcare plan to save the tree; if it poses an immediate safety risk to your property, we will provide a safe removal plan.

Do I need to be home while the crew is working on my property?

You do not need to be home during the project as long as we have clear access to the trees and any outdoor furniture or pets have been moved. We pride ourselves on thorough communication and will perform a final site walkthrough to ensure everything is left spotless and meets our quality standards before we depart.

Great pricing and made sure I was covered. When the scope of my tree trimming turned into removal they came out same day, had a proposal put together and started the scheduling. Great company to work with and Dave thank you for stopping out between appointments to get things moving quickly.

Many thanks to Hayden, Jackson, and their team for weight reduction on our boxelder tree and for avoiding lawn damage to get in the final trimming. I highly recommend the crews at Bratt and want to thank our previous arborists and team members: Clayton, Ezra, and Francisco. Together the Bratt team members have helped us remove a large ash tree from a hard to access back yard, reduce weight on and stabilize another huge tree with cables, and we've hired them for projects since 2025. Scheduling is easy, communication is excellent, and we were able to schedule service without excessive delays. They care about trees, are knowledgeable, answer questions well, and accommodated on-scene homeowner requests as part of providing excellent customer service. Highly recommended, thanks again!

If you are looking for an arborist who truly knows her craft, look no further than Hayden. She was incredibly knowledgeable, kind, and genuinely passionate about trees. With just a look, she identified not only the species but the variety and explained what was healthy what wasn’t and why!
She was honest about what had to go and what is solid to stay for years to come. I felt like I was being educated by someone who truly cares about her expertise
She was candid, efficient, and answered every question with confidence and patience.
Y’all, she came back up to the door before she rolled out at the end of the walk through to give my goofball dogs a lil treat. I cannot recommend highly enough. Hayden, thanks for giving me hope for my yard! :))

Excellent experience with TJ Carlson at Bratt Tree — this is the second time he's been out to our property, and he's been outstanding both times. The first visit was for an estimate on a massive dead Burr Oak (about 52 feet tall with a 58-foot crown, likely 150+ years old). TJ inspected it thoroughly and walked us through every option for the removal in detail, nothing felt rushed or glossed over. Most recently, we had him back out for a tree in our front yard that also needs to come down, and he was just as thorough — full inspection, clear explanation of the process and options. TJ is knowledgeable, patient, and clearly takes pride in doing the job right. Highly recommend him and Bratt Tree.

Since I lived in the local area of Crystal they were able to give me a good price well under what other companies quoted for more services.

Everything went well except for one thing. The ferns behind the garage got pretty decimated but it was a small area they erected working in ferns grow pretty rampantly so I’m not worried about it.

Sean-Paul McCutchen did a great job cutting down and hauling away our tree.

Clayton was great to work with!! So great to work with that I signed on the spot, forgetting that I had an appointment with another company to provide a 2nd estimate. He was very knowledgeable, nice, and fun to talk to; he was also able to get my tree trimming booked within 2 weeks of my estimate — which is wonderful because I’m putting my house on the market and need the trimming completed as soon as possible. I recommend canceling that second opinion! ☺️
