"Tree at our apartment complex in Buckley was in the way of a new structure being built this spring. R&A Tree Service showed up very professionally, fast and safely got trimmed what was needed. Their billing process was super easy and the crew was super nice. Highly recommend. And WILL be using them again in the near future."

"Top notch crew and office folks. I had one company that came out that wanted to take 35’ off the top of one of my trees in the back yard and Brandon informed me that would actually stress the tree and not be good for its overall health. They could have made a lot more money if they topped the tree but they cared more about the health of the tree instead. Would definitely hire them again going forward with any other tree or bush needs in the future."

"I needed two stumps removed and this company came to my rescue. They grinned both stumps in less than 30 minutes (even got rid of the roots for me), cleaned the job site, and left. Neil was super professional and responsive and beat any other quote I had for the job. Highly recommend them for your tree service needs."

"Amazing team. Great service. Super clean and professional. We had many large trees that needed to be trimmed and/or removed in addition to fruit trees that needed to be tended. I can not recommend them highly enough. They went above and beyond to be sure everything was the way we wanted and absorbed several last minute requests. All was done exactly as promised in terms of cost and timeliness."

"I am pleased to have picked Highlander Logging Inc. for my project. It was my first time contracting to trim my tree, removal of bushes and shrubs. Mike and Cody were timely from the bid appointment until the job was done. Both were patient and knowledgeable, and their quote appears to be fair compared to other bids I had. I would recommend them. I will use their services again if needed."

"I had a dead tree that needed to be removed. Due to the location and accessability, I was concerned that having the tree removed would damage our landscaping. Crazyviking came out, surveyed the area, explained, step by step, how he would remove tree, how long it would take and assured me that he would do his best to protect the surrounding areas. We set a date for 2 days later, he arrived, removed the tree exactly like he said he would, chopped and stacked the fallen tree into pieces that I could burn in my fire pit. I highly recommend Crazyviking and I will call them if, in the future, I need help with any of our trees"

Customers say: Quality work

"Tree-works removed 2 large trees at a fair price. The wood they left was in 2 nice stacks. It had to be split into quarter rounds to move it up to the area where we wanted it and the rest of the property was spotless. Very hardworking and professional crew. I would highly recommend."

Tree Service FAQs, answered by experts

Getting a tree pro with the right experience can be the difference between your transplanted tree surviving or not. When hiring a local tree transplanting and removal service, follow up on references, check their portfolio, ask for a breakdown of the costs, and get proof of liability and workers’ compensation insurance. 

Also, look for companies certified by the International Society of Arboriculture or registered with the Tree Care Industry Association and make sure they have an appropriate state or city license.

Yes, it can be good to remove dead branches from trees. Dead branches can lead to rot in other areas of the tree. They can also cause damage if they fall on a house, shed, fence, car, pool, or other structure or property. However, it’s important that dead branch removal is done safely. If the branch is high in a tree or requires a lift or ladder to access, consider calling a professional tree removal company, as they will have the experience and equipment to do the job safely.

Unfortunately, most of the time you’re out of luck if a neighbor’s tree blocks your view. You don’t have a right to a view, so if you have a tree that’s near the property line but on your neighbor’s property, you can’t cut it to be able to take in a majestic mountain or a beautiful sunrise. In some communities, however, there are ordinances protecting scenic views. Checking into your local laws can help you determine your rights in this situation.

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.

Professionals ensure safety, prevent property damage, and handle debris efficiently.
