Providing Tree Removal and Tree Services to Brooklyn, CT
Brooklyn sits in the heart of Connecticut’s Quiet Corner, a landscape of farms, colonial homes and mature hardwoods. The trees that shade the town green and line its country roads are a big part of what makes Brooklyn feel like Brooklyn. Keeping them healthy and removing them safely when the time comes takes experience.
Arbortech Tree Services has cared for trees across Hartford, Tolland and Windham counties since 2005. We bring that experience to Brooklyn homeowners, farms and businesses with professional tree removal, pruning and advice from a CT DEEP-licensed arborist. Every job starts with an in-person inspection and an honest recommendation.

Caring for Brooklyn’s Historic and Natural Landscape
Brooklyn was incorporated in 1786 and takes its name from the “brook line” of the Quinebaug River, which forms its eastern border. Revolutionary War General Israel Putnam made his home here, and his equestrian monument stands just south of the town green. The Brooklyn Green Historic District, along scenic Route 169, preserves 18th- and 19th-century homes, churches and meeting houses framed by mature shade trees.
Every year just before Labor Day, the Brooklyn Fair draws thousands of visitors to what is known as the nation’s oldest continuously operating agricultural fair. Brooklyn also has a network of town trails, including Creamery Brook, Davis Forest and the Quinebaug River Trail, that wind through the same oak, maple and pine woodlands found on many local properties. Healthy trees help keep this corner of Connecticut as beautiful as its history.
Safeguarding Brooklyn’s Trees
Storm Damage: Nor’easters, ice storms and summer thunderstorms regularly bring down trees and limbs across the Quiet Corner. Our emergency crew responds 24/7 to clear hazards and protect your property.
Insects and Disease: Oaks in eastern Connecticut are still recovering from the spongy moth outbreaks of the late 2010s, emerald ash borer has killed ash trees statewide, and beech leaf disease is spreading. We don’t offer chemical treatments, but we can diagnose what’s going on and recommend pruning, preservation or removal.
Trees Along Scenic and State Roads: Trees within a town road right-of-way fall under Brooklyn’s tree warden. Trees along state routes such as 169, 6 and 205 fall under CT DOT. If a roadside tree is a concern, we can help you figure out who is responsible before any work begins.

“Lindsey, Justin, and the ARBORTECH crew are amazing. We had a large maple on a rocky hillside with some challenges that included being close to the house, propane tank, plantings, and hot tub with limited walking access only. Every branch, limb, and log had to be lowered and carried away by hand. The crew arrived on time and was professional, communicative, and hard working. After the final sweep by the team, the area looked perfect and undisturbed- minus one large tree. We have used ARBORTECH four different times and have consistently been impressed. It is clear that they care and are attentive to our needs.”
