Founded in 1930, Nels Johnson Tree Experts is a family owned and operated company devoted to the care and maintenance of trees and plants throughout Northern Illinois and the Chicagoland area. The founder of our company, Mr. Nels J. Johnson Sr., discovered his love of nature as a boy in Skane, Sweden. The rich earth and dense forests of southern Sweden inspired him to successfully specialize in botany. Determined to follow the American dream, Mr. Johnson arrived at Chicago's North Shore well-trained in horticulture and armed with the ability to speak Swedish, Latin, German, and English.

While all trees, shrubs, and turf gain vital nutrients and moisture from the environment, they thrive when additional organic materials are also available. Mulch complements or restores the nutrients found in the soil. The certified arborists at Nels Johnson Tree Experts understand that trees and other plants grown on residential and commercial properties don't enjoy the same nutritional benefits as those growing in nature. Our mulching service improves the organic content of the soil, while also suppressing the growth of weeds.

Our team will inspect your trees and diagnose issues that may lead to storm damage or failure. Call us for professional advice. The certified tree experts at Nels Johnson will design a cleanup procedure to bring back both the safety and beauty to your property. We take the time to examine each tree to determine the best plant health care program for future growth.

The warmth provided by burning firewood goes a long way in keeping your family and home comfortable through a frigid winter. The foresight and early conservation efforts of Nels Johnson, Sr. paved the way for wood recycling. Our team produces high-quality firewood using the recycled wood material from our tree removal services. The process utilizes a drive-in, computer-controlled kiln to reliably produce low-moisture, insect-free firewood. We offer quantities ranging from single-use bundles up to full face cords.

Trees add both character and value to a property. Proper care of the trees at your home or business is critical to ensure they live a long and healthy life. The certified arborists, tree workers, and safety specialists at Nels Johnson Tree Experts apply state-of-the-art maintenance techniques to keep your trees looking great for years to come. Tree care and maintenance is comprised of several different but essential skills aimed at protecting and enhancing the beauty and value of your trees and property.

The certified arborists, tree care safety specialists, and tree workers at Nels Johnson Tree Experts provide nearly 90 years of superior tree care services. While our team always considers every option available to preserve your trees, sometimes poor health, storm damage or other risks require removal. Tree removal in both residential and commercial landscapes can present certain safety and technological challenges best addressed by our highly-trained team. Our arborists evaluate the overall condition of the tree, your property, and the location of your home and utility lines before utilizing state-of-the-art equipment to safely take down the tree.
