Tim Krause - Owner Midhurst Tree Care

Tim Krause

Owner & Lead Arborist

Tim founded Midhurst Tree Care in 2006 with a simple belief: do the job right, show up when you say you will, and treat every customer's property like it's your own. Nearly two decades later that hasn't changed. Tim is on the job site for every significant removal and brings his chainsaw alongside his crew — not just a clipboard. His hands-on approach is something customers notice and remember.
