"From the start of the process everything went smoothly. Initially, Ryan Seeley (certified arborist) arrived on-site to consult and prepare a bid for the removal of the trees. Clearly, Ryan is knowledgeable of all trees on this property and skilled in not only the removal, but also in the analysis of the remaining trees on the property, for future maintenance. The quote was reasonable and scheduling easy. On the day of the removal, four courteous gentlemen arrived to cheerfully and skillfully remove the three trees leaving nothing behind. They also were cognizant of other plantings and the sprinkler system surrounding the trees; careful not to disturb. Before leaving, they assured completed cleanup of the area. I will definitely use Pacific Arboriculture for future services. (Fred Fanning, Burien, WA)"

"I got a quick response to the quote request. Moses came out to do the quote and he was knowledgeable, courteous and efficient. When the crew arrived, they were respectful of the property and worked very efficiently. I was impressed with how quick it was. They raked and cleaned up the entire area and left my lawn looking cleaner then when they arrived. If any of my friends or family need tree service I will be sure to recommend them."

"Dan came out to give us an assessment about the health of an old cedar we have next to our home. I was concerned that he wouldn't be "straight" and would try to upsell services. However, I really wanted an experienced arborist to let me know why parts of my tree appear to be dying. Dan checked our tree out thoroughly and gave us his opinion that the tree is stressed but will most likely bounce back over the next several months. He then went on to look at a number of other trees on our property -- ALL AT NO CHARGE TO US -- and without trying to sell us any services. I have complete confidence in Dan and Eastside Tree Works. They came to take care of our landscape needs and didn't attempt to profit off of our ignorance. I will not hesitate to use them in the future!"

"They cut down 3 trees for us. They are efficient, showed up at scheduled time and got the work done quickly. We also have a tree that needs to be trimmed, he explains that the time to do the trimming for that particular tree is when it is dormant. Take time to explain the reasoning. We are happy with their service and professionalism."

Tree Service questions, answered by experts

In most ways, palm trees are incredibly low-maintenance. They don’t need a ton of water—which is why they’re so beloved in desert regions—and they basically prune themselves. But they do need an ample supply of sunlight and to be in soil that will allow for proper drainage so that their roots don’t become waterlogged and at risk of developing illnesses.

If the plant begins to wilt, develop spots, or change color, these could all be signs that your palm tree has a disease. But a few basic treatments, like pruning and applying fungicide, will usually be more than enough to return it to perfect health.

We don’t recommend DIY tree trimming for a few different reasons. First, the tools required to trim a tree can be costly, up to $1,100 or more, for the ladders and specialized saws needed. 

Safety is another concern, especially when working with more mature trees. As a guideline, you should only DIY tree trimming when branches are less than two inches in diameter. Any more, and the safety risk becomes too high, which could lead to catastrophe. For this job, it’s safest to let a tree-trimming professional assess the work needed.

You’ll have to balance up the cost, the value of the tree (sentimental or otherwise), and the risk factors. An experienced arborist will help you understand whether transplanting is likely to be successful. The cost and hassle of transplanting a large, well-established tree are often not worth it, especially if the species is fast-growing and easy to source. The decision depends on the age and species of the tree, the conditions in the new site location, and how careful the company is when digging out and moving the tree.

Sudden oak death and oak wilt are different diseases. Oak wilt first shows up in tree leaves while sudden oak death affects the branches and trunk. However, as symptoms in both can overlap, it’s best to consult a professional arborist tree expert for a proper diagnosis and development of a treatment plan.

Planting a palm tree close to your home can provide shade while elevating the beauty of your yard. However, there are a few safety concerns to consider before doing so. You’ll want to opt for a smaller tree with a non-invasive root system. Select a species that won’t grow too tall and choose a planting location that won’t damage your home.
