With ISA-Certified and Board-Certified Master Arborists on staff, we offer expert care from Cedarburg Road to Village Park, delivering science-based solutions that protect trees and enhance the beauty of the neighborhood.

Safe Tree Removals in Thiensville

When a tree becomes hazardous or declines beyond recovery, we handle removals with precision. All required permits are managed for you, and we leave your yard clean and ready for future use. 

Strategic Pruning for Health and Safety

Pruning improves structure, prevents interference with garages, driveways, and neighboring properties, and enhances natural beauty. Our approach is tailored to each species, from ornamental crabapples to towering oaks, ensuring safety and longevity.

Stump Grinding and Site Restoration

We grind stumps below grade and restore the space for replanting or landscape upgrades, all while protecting nearby lawns and plantings.

Plant Health Care (PHC) Programs

Thiensville’s riverfront humidity and compacted soils demand proactive care. Our PHC services include Emerald Ash Borer treatments, oak wilt prevention, fungal management for spruces and pines, and customized nutrient programs for healthy root systems.

After harsh weather, we promptly clear fallen branches, secure weakened trees, and restore safety and appearance to your property.

Thiensville’s Unique Tree Challenges

Being near the Milwaukee River creates unique conditions like waterlogged, compacted soils that can stress trees and shrubs. Road salt used in winter particularly harms maples and lindens, while strong seasonal winds challenge mature oaks. Our team is deeply familiar with these specific Thiensville issues and delivers precise, science-based care to keep your property’s greenery healthy and resilient.

Did You Know?

  • Dormant-season pruning in late fall and winter reduces disease risk while promoting healthy regrowth.
  • Emerald Ash Borer spreads rapidly through Thiensville’s dense riverfront canopy if left untreated.

Fantastic experience. I had some large trees close to our home that needed to be taken down and they did so in a safe, quick, and efficient manner. John Menzel, Cole Adam, and Austin Kubash left a clean job site with zero headache for us. Would highly recommend!

Excellent in every way! We will use their service again! I could not be happier with the service, price, communication and finished product. Crawford removed a very large problem tree for us and Dane and the team were awesome.

We have had a great experience with Crawford since they were first recommended by a neighbor to help us determine if our Ash trees were worth saving. Jon came out and gave us a thorough assessment and recommendation for treatment.

Crawford Tree has been servicing my personal residence as well as the common areas of the homeowners association property in the subdivision in which I live for 10+ years, and they have always provided high-quality, detailed, expert treatment of the trees, shrubs, bushes, [and] lawn areas associated with both.

We are having a fantastic experience with Crawford! We called in Spring and talked with Steve about our front lawn. The dirt level was so high, it was nearly impossible to edge. We also had a very clumpy, bumpy lawn and small bare spots all over, that were more like holes and it was so uneven. Originally, we were going to do the job ourselves. Let me say...SO glad we didn't.
