Tree Services of Omaha

Eastern Nebraska yards commonly feature ash trees, oaks (including bur oak and red oak), Norway maples, hackberry, Eastern redbud, cottonwood, and green ash along with ornamental trees like crabapple and sycamore. Each species has different pruning windows, growth habits, and disease vulnerabilities. Ash trees in particular require monitoring and treatment for Emerald Ash Borer. Our arborists understand the local species mix and tailor recommendations to what is actually growing on your property.

Yes. Nebraska’s severe wind, ice, and thunderstorm seasons put real stress on trees with heavy canopies, weak branch attachments, or structural defects. Regular trimming removes deadwood, thins dense canopy growth, and reduces wind load and all of which lower the risk of branch failure during storms. A certified arborist can also identify structural issues like included bark or co-dominant stems that may need cabling or bracing.

Yes. Our Nebraska Certified Arborists perform on-site tree health evaluations and risk assessments to evaluate structural integrity, signs of disease or pest damage, soil conditions, and overall longevity. This is especially useful if you have an older or high-value tree you want to preserve, or if a tree is showing signs of decline and you are not sure whether to treat or remove it.

Winter is actually one of the best times for many trimming and removal jobs. When trees are dormant, you get a clearer view of the branch structure, disease spread is reduced, and the frozen ground helps protect your lawn and landscape during the work. Some species benefit specifically from late-winter pruning just before spring growth begins. We work year-round and can schedule winter jobs with minimal disruption.

Well-maintained trees are among the most valuable landscape assets a property can have. Studies consistently show mature trees add measurable value to residential properties, and clean, properly shaped trees make a strong first impression. Conversely, dead branches, overgrown canopies, or hazardous trees detract from appearance and can become a liability. Routine trimming and health care protect and grow that investment over time.

Do not attempt to trim branches near power lines yourself as this is extremely dangerous and should only be handled by trained professionals. For branches close to your home, gutters, or roof, we can safely remove or trim them back to prevent structural damage, moisture issues, and entry points for pests. Call us for a free estimate and we will assess the situation and recommend the safest approach.

Yes. We provide tree removal, trimming, stump grinding, and health care services for both residential homeowners and commercial properties throughout the Omaha metro area, including Bellevue, Gretna, Papillion, Elkhorn, La Vista, Bennington, Blair, and Fort Calhoun.

Emerald Ash Borer (EAB) is an invasive beetle first detected in the Omaha metro in 2016 that attacks and kills ash trees by feeding beneath the bark and disrupting the tree’s ability to move water and nutrients. Nebraska has an estimated 44 million ash trees at risk. If you have ash trees on your property, timely trunk injection treatment can protect them for up to two years. We offer EAB treatment using industry-leading products including emamectin benzoate, applied directly into the tree’s vascular system for maximum effectiveness with minimal environmental impact.
