Professional Tree Care & Removal in Lake Zurich, IL

Do I need a permit to remove a tree near the lake?

Lake Zurich has specific ordinances protecting its natural beauty, especially near the waterfront where tree roots prevent soil erosion. Permits are often required. As certified arborists, we provide the official health assessments and documentation needed to help streamline your village permit process.

My pine tree has a heavy lean toward my house after the last storm. What should I do?

A newly developed lean is a major red flag indicating root failure, and the tree should be inspected immediately. Please keep your distance and call our 24/7 emergency dispatch. We will assess the structural integrity and, if necessary, safely dismantle the tree before it falls.

We want to add a patio, but there are several large, surface-level roots in the way. Can we cut them?

Cutting primary structural roots can kill a mature tree or cause it to fall over. Our "treat and trim, before cut" philosophy applies here. We offer expert root tracing and trimming services, allowing us to safely manage the roots and install barriers so you can complete your patio without sacrificing the tree.
