OUR STORY
Reliable Partners in Landscape Management
Commercial properties need more than a tree service. They need a partner who protects the health, appearance, and safety of their landscape while helping control long-term maintenance costs. From office parks and HOAs to retail centers and multi-family communities, proactive tree care protects property values, creates a positive impression for tenants and customers, and reduces liability.
For nearly 90 years, Ostvig Tree Care has partnered with commercial property owners and managers throughout the Twin Cities West Metro. We believe the best tree care programs prevent problems before they become costly repairs. That’s why we develop customized maintenance plans tailored to your property's trees, priorities, and long-term goals.
Keep Your Landscape Safe, Healthy & Well Maintained
Commercial property managers understand the value of proactive landscape management. Healthy, well-maintained trees enhance curb appeal, support property values, and create a positive impression for tenants, customers, and visitors. Preventative tree care also helps reduce emergency work, minimize storm-related damage, and extend the life of your trees.
Most commercial properties benefit from:
Annual or seasonal inspections to catch problems before they become hazards
Regular pruning schedules that keep trees structurally sound and aesthetically maintained
Plant health care plans that manage pests, diseases, and soil health
Risk assessments for trees near buildings, parking areas, or customer spaces
A consistent maintenance program, supported by experienced crews who become familiar with your property over time, helps ensure your trees receive knowledgeable, proactive care.
Complete Tree Care for Commercial Properties
Your property's health depends on more than occasional trimming. We deliver a full range of services designed to protect and enhance your business’ landscape.
Preventative Pruning & Structural Maintenance
Regular pruning removes hazardous branches, improves crown structure, and enhances tree health. We work year-round on a customized schedule that keeps your landscape at peak appearance and structural integrity.
Plant Health Care (PHC) Programs
Annual PHC plans include professional assessments, seasonal pest and disease monitoring, and targeted treatments. We manage common Twin Cities pests, like emerald ash borer and Japanese beetle, plus diseases, including needle cast, anthracnose, and oak wilt.
Risk Assessment & Hazard Tree Management
Our professional arborists identify trees that pose structural risk due to disease, damage, or proximity to buildings. We provide documentation your insurance carrier may require and a clear action plan.
Tree Removal & Cleanup
When removal is necessary, we manage the entire process, including permitting, professional removal, debris hauling, and thorough site cleanup. We coordinate every step to minimize disruption to your property and operations.
Stump Grinding
Stumps are ground below grade and filled with either grindings or topsoil, leaving a clean, finished appearance. Stump grinding can be included in removal estimates or quoted as a separate service.

Consistent Execution
Your property receives reliable, professional service according to the customized plan we've developed together. Our experienced crew handles scheduled work with attention to detail and respect for your property and operations.
