Wheat Ridge Tree Care FAQs
Do I need a permit to remove a tree?
Permit needs can vary by location and tree type. We’ll review your situation, outline next steps, and help you navigate requirements if a permit is necessary.
When is the best time to prune trees?
Most structural pruning is done during dormant months, but safety and clearance pruning can be performed year-round. We’ll recommend timing based on your species and goals.
How do I know if my ash tree has Emerald Ash Borer?
Look for canopy thinning, D-shaped exit holes, and bark splits. Early detection matters—our arborists can inspect, advise on treatment options, and set up a monitoring plan.
Can you work in tight backyards or near power lines?
Yes. Our tracked lift and cranes are designed for limited access and precise removals. We coordinate around utilities and follow strict safety protocols.
