How Fargo Tree Works Operates
How Fargo Tree Works handles tree removal, trimming and storm cleanup in Fargo, ND — what to expect from the first call to cleanup.
What we focus on
Fargo Tree Works is a residential tree service for Fargo and the surrounding Red River Valley towns. The work splits into two broad kinds: planned jobs — taking down a hazard tree, thinning a canopy, grinding a stump, clearing a lot — and unplanned storm response, where the priority is making an unsafe situation safe. Everything we do is built around how trees actually grow and fail in this flat, clay-heavy, wind-exposed part of the state.
We deliberately keep the service list focused on tree work rather than branching into unrelated trades. That means the person looking at your tree is thinking about root plates, trunk defects, wind loading, and species behavior — not fitting your job in around something else. If a tree can be saved with tree trimming, we'll say so; if it's past that point, we'll explain why tree removal is the safer call.
What a caller can expect
A straightforward process from the first phone call to a cleaned-up yard.
-
You describe what you're seeing
A lean, a split limb, dead branches, a tree too close to the house, or storm damage. The more detail — species if you know it, how long it's been that way — the better we can scope it.
-
We look at the tree in person
For most jobs we come out, check the trunk, roots, and canopy, and look at what's around the tree — buildings, lines, fences, the drop zone. For emergencies we move faster and prioritize the unsafe pieces.
-
You get a clear plan
We explain what the work involves, how we'll bring the tree or limbs down safely, whether the stump should be ground, and how the site will be left. No surprises on scope.
-
We do the work and clean up
Cutting is planned so pieces land where we want them. Afterward we clear debris, and if you've asked for it, grind the stump below grade so the spot can be seeded or built over.
Have a tree you're unsure about?
Describe it over the phone and we'll tell you whether it needs a closer look, a trim, or a full removal.

Frequently asked questions
Do you charge to look at a tree?
Reach out and describe the situation first — a lot of questions can be sorted out over the phone. For jobs that need an in-person look, we'll explain how that works when you call.
Do you only work in Fargo?
No. We cover Fargo plus West Fargo, Horace, Mapleton, Oxbow, Argusville, and Casselton. Each of those towns has its own service-area page with local detail.
Can you help after hours during a storm?
Storm response is one of our core services. After a windstorm, call and describe what's unsafe — a limb on the roof, a tree across the driveway — and we'll prioritize the dangerous pieces first.
