Des Moines Tree Service is a safety-first local tree company serving homeowners, businesses, and property managers across the Greater Des Moines area. Since 2007, we have provided professional tree care backed by ISA-certified expertise, proper equipment, and dependable local service.
We are fully licensed and insured, and we approach every job with safety, property protection, and long-term tree health in mind. From tree trimming and stump grinding to hazardous removals and emergency response, we deliver practical solutions without shortcuts.
Des Moines Tree Service provides complete tree care for residential and commercial properties across the metro. We focus on safe work, practical solutions, and professional results that help protect your property and improve the condition of your trees.
Tree removal is sometimes necessary for safety or landscape reasons. We handle removals of all sizes with care and precision, using specialized equipment to take down trees in tight spaces safely.
We assess each tree’s condition and surroundings before removal, allowing us to develop the safest action plan.
For emergencies, we offer 24/7 response. Storms or accidents can create hazardous conditions that need immediate attention.
Our ISA-certified crews clean up thoroughly after every job. We haul away debris or chip it for mulch if desired.
Regular trimming and pruning promote tree health and appearance. Our certified arborists know how to trim trees properly for optimal growth.
We remove dead, diseased, or damaged branches to prevent further issues. Careful pruning also improves air circulation and sunlight penetration.
For fruit trees, we use techniques to enhance fruit production. Ornamental trees benefit from shaping to maintain their aesthetic appeal.
Another key service is safety pruning near buildings or power lines. We ensure branches don’t pose risks to structures or utilities.
After tree removal, stumps can be eyesores and obstacles. Our stump grinding service eliminates these remnants efficiently.
We use powerful grinders to reduce stumps to wood chips several inches below ground level. This prevents regrowth and allows for replanting or landscaping.
The resulting wood chips can be used as mulch in your garden. We can remove them if preferred, leaving a clean site.
Stump grinding also helps prevent pest infestations. Decaying stumps can attract termites and other wood-boring insects to your property.
We come to you, assess the job, and give you a clear quote — no surprises.
