Landscaping Services in Ashland & Bayfield County

Landscaping in northern Wisconsin isn’t the same as landscaping in warmer climates.


We deal with short growing seasons.

Lake-effect wind.

Sandy soil near the shoreline.

Heavier clay inland.

Long winters that leave yards looking rough by spring.


That’s why landscaping here needs to be practical, durable, and built around real conditions.


At Quality Tree Service, we provide landscaping services throughout Ashland, Washburn, Bayfield, and surrounding communities. Whether you need routine landscape maintenance, yard cleanup service, or full residential landscaping support, we focus on creating outdoor spaces that make sense for this region.

Landscaping That Fits Northern Wisconsin Properties

Every property up here is a little different.


Homes near Lake Superior often have lighter, sandy soil that drains quickly. Move a few miles inland and you might be dealing with dense clay that holds water longer than you’d like.


Add in freeze-thaw cycles and heavy snow accumulation, and landscaping needs to be designed with resilience in mind.


Professional landscaping in this area isn’t about flashy designs. It’s about:

• Proper grading

• Smart plant placement

• Low-maintenance layouts

• Durable ground cover

• Clean, functional outdoor spaces


We plan with the seasons in mind—not just summer.

Residential landscaping in Ashland ranges from compact city lots to wooded properties outside Bayfield and Washburn.

• Apartment complexes

• Office buildings

• Retail locations

• Municipal properties

• Rental properties


Commercial grounds maintenance focuses on reliability. We work efficiently and coordinate schedules so businesses can continue operating without disruption.

Yard Cleanup Services

Spring in Ashland tells the story.


Snow melts. Leaves surface. Branches appear. Winter debris shows up all at once.


Our yard cleanup service helps properties recover from:

• Winter buildup

• Fallen branches

• Windblown debris

• Overgrown beds


Fall cleanup is just as important. Removing leaves and organic debris before snow accumulation helps prevent matting and damage.


Sometimes landscaping starts with cleanup. That’s okay.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • Do you offer seasonal cleanup?


    Yes. Spring cleanup is especially important here after snowmelt. We remove leftover leaves, fallen branches, and winter debris that builds up under heavy snow. In fall, we handle leaf removal and bed cleanup before freeze-up so your yard isn’t matted down all winter. Seasonal cleanup helps your lawn and landscape come back stronger in spring.


  • Do you handle commercial properties?


    Yes. We provide commercial landscaping and grounds maintenance for apartment complexes, small businesses, municipal buildings, and rental properties throughout Ashland and Bayfield County. We understand that commercial properties need to stay presentable and safe, and we work around operating hours when needed.


  • What’s included in maintenance?


    Landscape maintenance can include trimming shrubs, cleaning up beds, removing debris, refreshing mulch, and general grounds maintenance. In this area, it often also means addressing winter damage, managing rapid spring growth, and keeping properties clean after windstorms. We adjust maintenance based on the season and your property’s specific needs.


  • Can you restore overgrown yards?


    Yes. After a long winter or a season of neglect, yards can get out of hand quickly. We handle overgrown beds, built-up debris, and thick vegetation to bring properties back under control. Many homes outside Bayfield and Washburn sit on wooded lots, so restoration work is common—and manageable.


  • Do you remove debris?


    Yes. We haul away branches, leaves, brush, and general yard waste. After wind events off Lake Superior, debris can scatter across properties quickly. Cleanup is part of the service, so you’re not left dealing with piles afterward.


  • How often should landscaping be maintained?


    At minimum, most properties in northern Wisconsin benefit from spring and fall service. Homes with heavier vegetation or commercial properties often require more frequent grounds maintenance during the growing season. We can recommend a schedule based on your soil conditions, layout, and plant growth.


  • Do you work around trees?


    Yes. Since we’re also a tree service company, we regularly coordinate landscaping and tree care services together. That’s especially helpful on wooded properties where trimming, stump grinding, and landscaping often overlap.


  • Do you offer estimates?


    Yes. We provide free, straightforward estimates for residential landscaping and commercial landscaping projects in Ashland, Washburn, Bayfield, and surrounding areas. We’ll walk the property with you and explain what makes sense before any work begins.
