"Great service from Will Ward. Professional all the way through. I needed some small trees removed and he listened to what I needed and the job was done in a timely manner. Less than 2 weeks but I was in no hurry, I need a small water system installed for my plants and trees and I will definitely be calling on Will again. Thanks Will"

"Brian provided estimate in February 2018. Advised us to wait till leaves were on the tree. Crew arrived on 6/7/2018 on time. Crew was extremely efficient and hard working with two climbers in the tree. Completed work in one day. All debris was chipped and hauled away, leaving our property neat and clean with no damage to landscaping. Brian was great to work with and the bid was very reasonable considering the complexity of the job. I would recommend them them unconditionally."

"I absolutely love this company and their employees!!  We have called them at least 3 times and if I could afford it, I'd call them again!
  We live at the end of a dead end street and  there are trees on all 3 sides of our house.  They were getting pretty large and our house was starting to feel like a cave.  I got permission from the surrounding neighbors to cut some trees .  
   After my phone call, the estimator was here the same day.  I was slightly vague on whether certain trees needed to come down (depended on access) , but he was quite flexible about options.  
  The crew came the following week (This was back in November 2014)  Might have been 5-6 guys, exactly on time, with a giant chipper.  They were an absolute joy to watch:  very precision work and very careful to avoid having limbs hit fences or structures. They climbed the trees and roped the tops or the limbs so the pieces would drop in the right location.  Very respectful of the neighbors' property.  I loved watching them in action.  You can tell they are all professional loggers.   They cut the trunk wood into rounds.  Used the chipper for the branches.  They were very helpful with last minute decisions about trimming versus eliminating something, and planning ahead for future plantings or cuttings.  Jason even went out of his way to talk to one of the neighbors about some trees on their property.  They probably cut down 12-15 trees in about 7 hours.  Our house and yard are much lighter.  Cleanup was outstanding.  The bill for that day was around $3000.  
     Last month, we hired them for removal of some dead trees at the beach.  They drove out from Portland and arrived before sunrise!!  Same result:  precision work with a great group of men who were very helpful and efficient.  They dropped trees that were a hazard.  Some were left to compost naturally, and some were cut into rounds for future firewood.  The bill for that day was around $2000 (included drive time to/ from Portland).  
   The company has arborist services available as well.  We have not yet asked for that help, but I met the arborist (Lorin) and he is quite knowledgeable and helpful.  
   I don't know what other companies charge.  Tree removal is costly, no matter who does it, which is why I gave them a "good" instead of "excellent" on pricing.  Based on their name, I suspect that I maybe should have checked "excellent" but I have no way of comparing prices.  This is only company I have ever called or would ever use.  ve

Arborists FAQs, answered by experts

It will take you anywhere from 15 minutes to two hours per tree stump to grind and remove the stump from the ground. The larger the size, the longer it will take to remove the stump. Also, keep in mind that rocky soil may require local excavation services to loosen up large boulders before you can begin to remove the tree stump.

Horticulturist is a broad term for any type of plant and soil expert. An arborist, meanwhile, specializes in all aspects of tree care. You should hire an arborist when you need assistance with tree-related tasks, such as pruning large trees, removing trees, diagnosing a sick tree, or emergency tree services. Horticulturists aren’t qualified to handle those types of tasks.

The lifespan of a bird's nest depends on the species. The building process can take from two days to three weeks. Once built, the nesting period for baby birds can last from two to ten weeks before they leave the nest. While most young birds are ready in two to six weeks, some predatory species may need up to two and a half months. Some species nest four to five times per year, so a nest could remain in use for several months. For specific information about a particular nest's longevity, it is best to consult a wildlife professional.

Not every arborist climbs trees, but most will do so if that’s the best method for assessing or treating a tree. Arborists have a variety of tree climbing gear and safety equipment to choose from when climbing trees. Consult your local arborist about their tree-climbing plan if your service requires that type of task.

No. Most of the time, suckers are only a sign that the tree is experiencing stress. However, they can also be the canary in the coal mine, letting you know that something else is stressing your tree. If you have lots of suckers on your tree, calling in an arborist or a tree care expert is always a good call to determine the cause and develop a solution that de-stresses your tree.
