"Great crew, great work and great price! We couldn't be happier with the quality of the work Erik and his crew did. They were professional, friendly, and made our trees look better than they ever have. They showed up on time, worked very efficiently, and cleaned everything up so well that you couldn't even tell they had been there except for how great the trees look. And the price was extremely reasonable."

"Dave and his crew were a pleasure to do business with. He was on time, and completed all work as described. I was very impressed by the accuracy of dropping the Redwoods. He was able to drop them across my driveway with pinpoint accuracy, which saved me thousands of dollars, as I didn’t need to take them down piece by piece. The Redwoods did break parts of my driveway and he came back and fixed my driveway at his expense. The dangerous tree in my backyard was cut down in pieces and Dave and his crew were very efficient in the work as well as cleanup."

"They not only do everything related to tree work, which we had some fully removed. But they also do every kind of landscaping as well from decks and patios, to garden bed builds. We plan on having them also do an intricate multi level garden bed area, and we already have them coming back out to build retaining walls for us as well. It's a sigh of relief when you can just let the professionals do it."

"The young guy who did the work was prompt and professional, but not well trained. He power washed my patio BEFORE blowing the leaves and sticks off my roof, so all the debris landed on my just cleaned patio, and he didn't follow up to clean it off.
He forgot to do the garage door and was all packed up when he asked me to inspect, so I just let it ride.

"This company was amazing to do business with!  They were on time and completed the job in the time frame they estimated to get it done.  They were very professional and truly hard working.  I can not say enough good things about them.  We were so fortunate to have hired them.  They managed the job well and were courteous to the neighbors.  We got 3 bids on this job because of the number of trees to be cut and their size.  Ridgeline Tree Service provided a fair bid and exceeded our expectations.  We will use their service again.

Arborists questions, answered by experts

Generally, homeowners do not need permission to cut down a tree on their own private property, but there are several exceptions where a permit may be required. You might need a permit if the tree is particularly large, old, or a protected species, such as a heritage tree. Trees located near public property or power lines can also be subject to special rules. Additionally, many local governments and homeowners associations (HOAs) have regulations controlling which trees can be removed to manage an area's appearance or prevent the spread of invasive species. To avoid hefty fines, it is crucial to check with your local government and HOA to determine if a permit is needed before you begin.

It can be bad to leave a dead stump in the ground. A stump becomes a hefty piece of dead wood in time and eventually (especially with the help of rain) starts to rot. That makes it a locus point for diseases and pesky insects, as well as a bit of an eyesore. It’s best to remove a tree stump completely before it starts to decay, especially before it starts to fall apart. If the tree was removed because of disease, it’s even more important to fully remove the stump if possible.

The cost of trees varies massively based on the size of the tree and the species. A small Colorado spruce can cost as little as $30, but a golden rain tree of the same size can cost $90. Large trees can cost $1,500 or more, depending on their species and height.

Rock salt or Epsom salt can damage and kill tree roots over several weeks and can even assist in removing the tree's stump. However, you need to drill holes or cut into the stump and surface tree roots to inject them properly with the salt. Repeat the process every two weeks until the roots visibly rot away.

It’s not always easy to tell when a tree is dying, although signs like dropping branches and brittle bark can sometimes offer clues. It can also be difficult to know whether a tree is dead or dormant, especially if it’s a deciduous tree. You’ll want to wait until a growth season to get a good idea of a tree’s health. When in doubt, contact an arborist for a consultation.
