Tree work in Roxana & South Roxana
Roxana and South Roxana are small villages tucked between Wood River, Hartford and the Phillips 66 Wood River refinery. Housing is mostly older single-family homes on small to medium lots, many with alleys and detached garages. Trees here tend to be big and old relative to the lots, so a lot of our work is careful sectional removal over roofs, fences and garages, plus trimming limbs back off houses and service lines.

Trees we see in Roxana & South Roxana
Silver maple, pin oak, hackberry, mulberry and box elder are the most common big trees, with sweetgum, Bradford pear and spruce in front yards. Volunteer trees along alleys and fence lines (mulberry, box elder, tree of heaven) often grow into the lines and garages if nobody keeps after them.
Pests and diseases around Roxana & South Roxana
Ash trees in both villages have largely been killed by emerald ash borer. Tree of heaven is an invasive that sprouts aggressively from roots; cutting it without treating the stump usually makes it come back thicker. Bagworms and scale are common on evergreens.
Our arborists treat any tree disease or pest. See tree health care.
Storms and emergencies in Roxana & South Roxana
Summer thunderstorms and the occasional ice storm bring down limbs onto alleys, garages and service drops. We clear them quickly and trim what's left so it doesn't happen again.

Local tip
If you're cutting tree of heaven yourself, don't just cut it down. Ask us about treating the stump so it doesn't send up dozens of root sprouts.
