Tree Service · Idaho, Washington & Oregon
Tree work is the one trade where the wrong crew gets expensive fast. Every arborist here is licensed and insured, and you can ask to see both before anyone climbs.
What this actually solves
Nobody can price a tree over the phone, and any company that tries is guessing. What sets the price is not the tree, it is everything around it: how close it leans to the roof or the power line, whether a truck can reach it or the wood has to be carried out by hand, and whether a crane is needed. Two trees the same height can differ by thousands of dollars because one sits in an open yard and the other sits between a deck and a neighbor's fence.
What moves the price
Height and trunk diameter set the floor. Risk sets the rest: proximity to the structure, overhead lines, equipment access, and what has to be protected below. Emergency work after a storm prices differently than scheduled work, because it means crew and equipment pulled off another job the same day. Stump grinding is usually quoted separately, so ask whether it is in or out of your number.
What is covered
When to call
A lean that is new or getting worse, especially with cracked or lifted soil on the other side, means the roots are letting go.
Branches with no leaves in season, or broken ones caught up in the canopy, come down on their own, usually in the next wind.
Mushrooms, soft bark or a hollow sound near the trunk flare point to decay where you cannot see it.
A deep vertical crack, or a split between two main stems, is structural. It does not heal and it gets worse under load.
Limbs over the house or touching service lines are a question of when, not if. Pruning now costs less than the repair later.
After a windstorm or an ice storm, a half-broken tree is loaded with tension. That is the one you should never cut yourself.
How it works
Fill in the form or call. A photo helps, but it is not required.
An arborist checks the tree, the access and what is below it, then gives you a written price.
No obligation. If you go ahead, cleanup and haul-away are included unless you want to keep the wood.

Questions we get
Because the price lives in the access and the risk, not the tree. A ten-minute look on site turns a range into a firm number.
Yes, and you should ask to see the certificate before anyone climbs. Tree work is the trade where uninsured crews cause the most expensive damage.
Cleanup and haul-away are normally in the estimate unless you want the wood left for firewood.
Emergency calls get routed first. Tell us if the tree is on a structure or blocking access and it moves to the front.
Often, when the tree falls on a covered structure like the house, the garage or a fence. A tree that is still standing, or one that came down in the yard without hitting anything, usually is not covered. Call your insurer before the work starts and send them the written estimate.
Sometimes. Some cities protect large or heritage trees, and many HOAs have their own rules. The arborist checks the local rules during the estimate visit and tells you before quoting.
A dead or dangerous tree should come down now, whatever the season. Healthy trees are usually best pruned in late fall and winter, when they are dormant and the structure is easy to see.
