Tree Services in Bellingham and Whatcom County

Removal first, because that is what most calls are about. Then everything that goes with it: storm work, trimming, stumps, brush and full lot clearing.

  • Free on-site estimates
  • Sectional takedowns where there is no room to drop
  • Full cleanup, or the wood left where you want it
  • Storm calls taken outside regular hours

One crew from the first cut to the last rake

A tree job rarely stops at the tree. Take down a big fir and there is a stump, a pile of brush, forty rounds of firewood and a lawn full of sawdust. Clear a lot and there is blackberry coming back from the roots by spring.

We handle all of it, so you are not lining up a tree crew, then a stump grinder, then someone with a trailer. One estimate, one schedule, one crew that leaves the yard clean.

Tree removal and storm work

Tree Removal

Douglas fir, cedar, maple and alder of any size, including the ones leaning over the roof. Felled where there is room, rigged down in pieces where there is not.

Emergency and Storm Tree Removal

A tree through the roof or across the driveway after a windstorm. We stabilise it so nothing else breaks, then cut it off and clear it.

Hazard Tree Removal

Dead tops, cracked trunks, fungus at the base, a root plate lifting out of soggy ground. Taken down on your schedule instead of the storm's.

Trimming and tree care

Tree Trimming and Pruning

Deadwood out, heavy limbs shortened, limbs cut back off the roof and gutters. Cuts made at the collar so the tree seals over.

Tree Health and Risk Assessments

We look at the lean, the trunk, the root flare and the crown and tell you plainly whether the tree is sound, needs work, or should come down.

Stumps, clearing and brush

Stump Grinding and Removal

Ground below the lawn line with the surface roots chased out, or the whole stump pulled where a foundation or driveway is going in.

Worker cutting back a dense wall of Himalayan blackberry along a fence line

Blackberry and Brush Removal

Himalayan blackberry walls and Scotch broom cut down and the root crowns dealt with, so the patch does not just grow back next season.

Also part of what we do

Thinned conifer framing a view of Bellingham Bay

View Pruning

Selective thinning and windowing that opens a view of the bay or Mount Baker and keeps the tree alive.

Not sure what the tree needs?

Send us a photo and tell us what is bothering you about it. Sometimes the answer is a removal. Sometimes it is a few limbs and the tree stays.
