Tree work in Collinsville
Collinsville sits right on the bluffs above the American Bottom, near Cahokia Mounds and home of the World's Largest Catsup Bottle. The older uptown neighborhoods around Main Street have early-1900s homes with tall trees and tight lots. Up and down the bluffs, newer subdivisions sit on hilly ground with wooded ravines out back. Down below, the bottomland is flat and wet. Every part of town has a different kind of tree job.

Neighborhoods and roads we work in Collinsville
We work in the older uptown neighborhoods along Main Street and the streets near the World’s Largest Catsup Bottle, on the bluff-top homes with steep wooded back yards, in the subdivisions off Route 159 and Route 157, and toward Maryville and Fairview Heights. Collinsville straddles the edge of the bluff above the American Bottom near Cahokia Mounds, so the west side drops steeply toward the bottoms.
Getting to you: Collinsville is about 35 minutes from our shop by Route 255 and I-55/70.

Our arborists treat any tree disease or pest. See tree health care.
Storms and emergencies in Collinsville
Trees on the bluff edge face storms coming across from St. Louis with nothing in the way. Hillside trees can uproot in saturated soil. Uptown, old maples drop limbs onto houses and alleys.

Local tip
Building or regrading on a bluff lot? Changing the soil level around a tree's roots by even a few inches can kill it slowly. Talk to us first.
