The second day when he had not arrived, I called and left a message 30 minutes after the scheduled time. Waited 10 minutes for a reply before looking for another worker. Brandon never called back. I think my job was bigger and harder than Brandon was prepared to do. He did put in a good effort the first day, but the no-show and no call was unacceptable. Before you hire Brandon, look at the L&I website. He has 3 violations - currently all unsatisfied. He is not currently licensed with L&I.

Paula Hunter was by FAR the most professional. She is an arborist and would only do what is "right" for the trees. I respect that. She agreed the trees needed to be removed. I asked her to "dig" up the root system. After review of the property she told me they could not "dig" up the root system. They would cut the trees as close to the ground as possible and we would need to treat the stumps with full strength round-up. She gave us good directions on what and how to do this. They arrived at the shopping center on time, removed, chipped and cleaned up in 30 minutes. Her men were extremely efficient. We were there with our full strength round up and applied it within the hour, which is what Paula told us to do. We will use this person again.

When I asked him if he had a referal he immediately provided me with the name of an associate that works on a smaller scale.

The first day I have 3 issues: 1) I asked for, but did not get a receipt - necessary for claiming on my taxes. 2) Brandon had no regard for the deer fence and not only was it pulled down, but one section destroyed while trimming branches. By the time I noticed, the damage was already in...

I think their prices are way out of line and they are a bait and switch company. I had received estimates from 3 other licensed and registered arborists who were way below their price even after my Big Deal coupon.
Very professional tree cutting team worked fast and efficiently. Mik, the team leader is also a certified arborist and made meaningful suggestions about thinning and trimming our Liquid Amber so they would not create multiple "leaders" at their tops. Very impressive!

FAQs for arboricultural service projects in Lakewood, WA
Landscapers typically charge $25 to $50 per person per hour, which equals around $50 to $100 per hour for a two-person crew. These rates can vary depending on your location, the size of staff needed for the job, and overall job type. For example, a larger crew will be needed for structural additions and hardscaping versus planting flowers.
When it comes to landscapers, licensing laws vary. Landscaping architects are required to be licensed in all 50 states, whereas traditional landscaping contractors are not typically required to hold a certification. You’ll likely be working with a landscaping contractor for most residential projects. If you are redesigning your whole yard or adding in hardscape features, you will work with a landscaping architect at some point during the project. Be sure to check our state licensing tool to review the local landscaper guidelines.
As you browse our pro listings, take note of the “Angi Approved” badge. Angi Approved businesses meet our standards for certification which include:
The owner, principal, or relevant manager passed a criminal background check
Required to have applicable state and local licenses
Maintain an average star rating of 3.0 or better on our network, if they have at least one review
Paying to advertise their services
Meeting any other eligibility criteria required by Angi
Keep in mind licensing is different from certifications. A license is a legal requirement to operate a business, while certifications are voluntary.
On average, removing a tree costs around $750, but you can expect to pay between $200 to $2,000. Factors that impact the overall cost include the number of trees you’re having removed, their height, the diameter of their trunks, permits needed, and the tree’s accessibility. You’ll pay more if the tree is in a hard-to-reach area or dangerous location, like close to power lines.
Landscaping costs around $3,500 but varies widely from $200 to $14,000. Factors that play a part in your final landscaping price tag include:
Location
Yard size
Project size
Materials
Land preparation
Type of landscaping
Considering so many factors, it’s not surprising that the overall costs can differ. A typical landscaping project is flower bed installation, which averages between $800 and $3,000. However, landscape lighting installation is a higher-end project, with a price tag of $2,000 to $6,000.
Yes, you will want to confirm that the tree removal company you hire is insured before proceeding with the job. Tree removal can be dangerous work, and it's important to verify that the company carries the proper insurance to cover any onsite accidents or damage.
