Maple Storm Damage

Learn how clearing a storm-damaged maple unveiled a fresh start for a Minneapolis backyard.

Sometimes, the best thing you can do for your outdoor space is let go of what's no longer serving it. That's exactly what happened when we recently removed a storm-damaged maple tree that had come down directly onto a client's deck here in the Minneapolis area. After a severe storm tore through the neighborhood, this once-beautiful maple didn't stand a chance — and unfortunately, neither did the deck underneath it. It's always a little bittersweet to see a tree that likely shaded that backyard for decades come down the way it did, but getting it removed safely and quickly was the only path forward. With the tree cleared away, the homeowners could finally breathe again and start thinking about what comes next for that space.

The difference was immediate and honestly breathtaking. What had been a chaotic and stressful scene — a massive maple draped across a crushed deck — was transformed into a clean, open backyard full of potential. Where there was once a tangle of broken branches and storm debris, there's now open sky and a blank canvas ready for whatever the homeowners dream up next. A new deck, a patio, a fire pit — the possibilities are wide open now, and the excitement on their faces when the last log was hauled away said it all.
