Apex Tree Experts are professional, friendly, responsive, and efficient. As soon as I put in a quote I was in direct communication with the team during the quoting and scheduling processes. They showed up when they said they would, and made super short order of the tree removal (fairly large apple tree). Apex's pricing is competitive, but not high. For the quality and professionalism you are getting, it is well worth the price! I am going to keep Apex in mind for future projects! read more

An estimate was given about 1 month ago. We scheduled a date to have 4 trees removed, we paid our deposit (with final payment due after work was done). An email was sent about 2 days out to confirm time and who will come. Three guys showed up around 9:30 am. They surveyed what was to be done, started work, cleaned up and were done in about 2 1/2 -3 hours! They didn't play around! Worked the whole time...maybe a snack break worked in, but definitely left our yard cleaned up. Apex's price beat the other estimate by half! Thanks Apex Tree Experts. read more

We were *almost* a repeat customer. But when the crew arrived they declined to do the work, bad-mouthed the estimator (who apparently had been fired), and left. One of the owners came out later and doubled the price. No thanks I'll pass. read more

I had apex over. I had two trees removed. The work was clean. They had the trees down and the grounds cleaned very quickly. I got 2 bids for this work they were slightly cheaper but the work sure didn't show it. Go with apex read more

We wanted to have some trees removed in the backyard of our home and Apex was recommended by a neighbor. Working with them was a great experience from start to finish. Everyone we worked with from the estimator, the office administrator and the crew who actually came to cut the trees were friendly and courteous. The price was fair, the work was done quickly and clean (as much as is possible with chainsaws) and now we have so much more light in our yard and no more dying trees...Would highly recommend giving them a call if you're in need of tree work. read more

These guys are so quick to want to go home instead of actually doing any work. A full day of work for them with showing up around 9:30 and working till about 3, because they wanted to be home by 5. they were supposed to come back again for a half day....that turned into working about an hour and a half. The job I had was supposed to only last one day. It's day 3 now and they left after a 2.5 hours...and they are not done yet. I called the office to have them come back to actually finish cutting the trees. The office staff seems to be not in touch with the work that these guys are doing and these guys are taking advantage of that. read more

Apex was recommended to me by my neighbor and good friend so I thought I would give them a shot. The bid was fair for the removal of a 80 year old+ cherry tree in my back yard. The tree was surrounded by fences, a shed, trampoline and an old large rhododendron and had a telephone line running through it. The Apex crew navigated the tight area and handled everything flawlessly. They were quick and professional. They were also willing to give me a quick bid on a removal of a smaller tree that I, at the last minute, wanted to have removed. They removed that too without any complaint. read more

Apex did a great job for us in Gig Harbor for bamboo eradication, stump grinding, waste removal, and tree trimming. The crew was professional, and were super helpful in explaining how to prevent bamboo from growing back. Would highly recommend. read more

Apex Tree Experts - Pre stump grinding but post cutting. This is a 5 ft deep section of bamboo that was 25ft across. A royal pain that Apex helped take away. - Tree Services Near Me - Tacoma, Washington

We had a big job--they had 2 huge alder clumps to cut down and then cut into rounds, and 3 monster size alders near our back fence and neighbor's yard. To make things more challenging, we have a boggy area that they had to work around, and multiple garden areas around the trees that had several very valuable japanese maples. The crew did a great job. Not a single japanese maple was harmed. I don't know how they know exactly how to drop the trees with such precision. As several people have mentioned, the crew is friendly, and checked with us several times to make sure which plants we were really concerned about saving. I think that their bid was commensurate with the others we had do estimates, and they were reasonable, clean, thorough and careful. read more

Beware of the dog poo. All kidding aside they have a charge if you don't clean up the dog poo before they get there. More on that later. The owner came out and did a bid, said his secretary would call me and schedule. What he didn't tell me is he was three weeks out, I called because I had limbs falling off tree and wanted them out ASAP. I told secretary that, she said she would try to find an earlier date and call me back, she never called back. On the day they were supposed to be there the wind was bad, but I had dog poo cleaned up for their visit. An hour after we're supposed to arrive they called and cancelled. Understandable but I think they could have called earlier. They rescheduled for a couple days later. As this was last minute I did not have time to clean dog poo, so they charged me 150 for dog poo. I argued the point to no avail, but no luck, they stuck too it. In addition the stumps were still there, evidently this is a separate visit, didn't tell me that at time of bid or when scheduling. There was damage to my deck and garden sprinkler, after I showed pictures they offered to take the dog poo charge off, which I felt was unjustified as they were the ones who rescheduled. One of their workman also left his coffee cup on my BBQ, guess I should send a bill for 150 to clean that up. Stump grinder finally showed days later without notice. I finally just gave up and asked how to pay with credit card, at which time I was informed that they charge an additional 2% for credit cards. Great. So that was my experience. Take from it what you will. All in all it delayed building my greenhouse a month. Just a small amount of working to satisfy the customer goes a long ways with me, I didn't see much here. read more

I know I've posted a few reviews on tree and landscape folks. Just recently, we needed a maple tree pruned, thinned and shaped. We received estimates all over the map even from people we had done business with before. It was feeling hard to know who to trust with this sort of (more precision) tree care... since it wasn't exactly like taking out the tree or other landscape services. Apex was new to us, but I saw and read all the positive reviews. I cannot agree with the high praises more! Dan was quick to call after I left my info through their website. He came over and was a pleasure to speak with - very knowledgeable and friendly. They were able to get out that week and did a fantastic job! The crew was very friendly, neat, and contentious of neighbors. When the job was done, Johnny, came up and walked me through what they did and gave me the opportunity to make any changes or comments -- no need! ... the tree looked beautiful! For tree work, I will absolutely recommend Apex to anybody who asks! read more

I would not hesitate highly recommending this tree Service . Quick response , reasonable priced, punctual, professional, knowledgeable Crew . They absolutely surpassed my expectations .. Truly a stress free, pleasure to deal with Company . I will be using their Service for all my properties and referring them to my friends @ GREAT JOB!! read more

AMAZING! John spent the better part of today in the 85 year-old oak tree in our front yard and I have to say, we now have the most beautiful tree in Tacoma. Our street of older homes is known for its fabulous trees, but ours now stands out as the most beautiful among them all. Two neighbors came over to find out who was doing such amazing work when John was still working and we have had more complimentary calls from our neighbors this evening. My congratulations to Apex for a job artfully done. I give you the highest recommendation! PS - The clean-up was as perfect as the job. read more

Apex was extremely professional and did an amazing job trimming our two tall trees! My family will definitely use them again in the future!

Last summer, had 3 trees come down in our backyard and clip the house. Apex came out within hours of being called and checked it out. We then scheduled a date and they got the work done...was amazed how quick their professional crew was. Great price as well. Hope to get some more preventive work done with them later. read more

This is the 4th time we've used Apex. They did a fantastic job for us in Tacoma and in Bremerton! Today we just had a tree sail cut to release the stress on the tree. The lumberjacks were awesome, friendly and did a great job. read more

See all

They were out a Month early to take down the 5 trees in front of my house, my roof and i really thank you !! they were great to work with , they also found one other tree that was rotted and was able to take it down the same day , these guys did a fantastic job and I will use them again if i need work done. there bid was very competitive read more

Third time I have used them - always top quality service and pleasant and efficient crew. Pricing a little high for us retired folks.

I gave the company 2 stars since they did a good job of taking down the requested trees. Now comes the BUT. This company overcharged. Watch your estimate. There are all kinds of hidden charges. Other tree companies have since told us to be very watchful with this company. They are known for adding in extra charges. You've been warned. read more

We chose this company to do the estimate because of great reviews on yelp. We got the estimate from Dan (I believe) and later set up an appointment for service. On the day of appointment, nobody showed up. We had tried to call multiple times to figure out whether they would be coming. And there was no answer and no reply. I don't know how this company could get all "five stars" reviews on yelp and we are so lucky to get stood up. End of story. read more

Apex tree service knows how to safely remove dangerous or unwanted trees quickly thanks for providing great service in north Tacoma!

This is the first time we used APEX at our condo's in Lakewood. We waited a little more than a week for the appointment... but today, in the pouring rain, 4 guys arrived on time.....and did an EXCELLENT job. They cleaned up everything and what great attitudes! read more

These guys came and removed a huge old pine tree that was leaning over the house. They did fast, careful work and left the area very tidy when they were through. They brought the tree down with no damage to any of the surrounding structures, and they even avoided damage to the grape arbor that was under the tree. They will meet or beat estimates from any licensed, bonded and insured company. They do tree removal, pruning, storm cleanup, even animal rescue :) read more

Shocked at all the positive reviews; I had decided to contact them based on the reviews, but the service I received was less than stellar! Tried to schedule an estimate; had it lined up and then rec'd email saying they were booked even though I had confirmed the appointment. Won't be recommending this company. read more

Apex Tree Experts is very professional. They cut a tree in my yard and also cleaned up all the debris.They have a quick and hard working crew. Quality work. Would highly recommend this company and their services. Very pleased.- Elaine read more

Moses and crew did a great job removing one tree close to our house and stripping another tree that was over grown. Very good clean up on the yard. Price was not the lowest but not the highest of four proposals. read more

These guys handled a big job for me - two LARGE trees that were close to everything...the house, power lines, a deck, and a chainlink fence. They did an awesome job and were very reasonable. I'd use them in a heartbeat! read more

Great experience with Apex! They were very professional and knowledgeable throughout the process. Dan was very responsive to calls and emails and his team, especially Ryan, was wonderful. We had several quotes from tree trimming companies and they had the best price by far. They cleaned up the trees and shrubs in our property and although we didn't pay extra to "clean up" the limbs, they hid them in the underbrush and over the bank so well that it looked amazing afterwards. We will definitely ask them to come back for future projects! read more

Dan from Apex came out and gave me a great estimate, was so easy to schedule with them and his crew was professional, took out our huge tree in less than two hours and cleaned up everything beautifully. We are really happy and would call them again! read more

Everyone from Dan to receptionist to crew were exceptional and on time. Great customer service. Highly recommend!

Fast and Professional!! Great work on the tree removal and they went the extra mile on the root removal. Very Happy!

We had a crew of 5 to remove a spruce tree, thin and clean up an overgrown maple, trim a Magnolia, and trim the branches from our neighbors maple. They did a great job, and when they left, there was no cleanup needed by us. What a great experience! Thanks to Dan and his crew. read more

Apex crew did an amazing job removing several trees that were in my view. Dan dealt directly with my neighbors and was extremely professional. I have and will continue to recommend them. It isn't easy to find a tree company that is both safe and competent. read more

started out thrilled to work with this group. Their staff was friendly and helpful in the bidding process. I was so thankful to find them. Then came the day of service. I was gone at work when they came and was at my house for 2 hours max. I was so excited to come home and see the improvements and I could not even tell what was done and for spending 2400.00 that was concerning. I walked the house and was finally able to identify the few branches on trees that were removed but all the bushes around my house were not trimmed like they were supposed to be. I had a huge party to host that week so I trimmed all the bushes myself, and that following week, I reached out to them letting them know I was unhappy. Because I had such a great experience I didn't think for a second that they would make it right. They seemed eager to fix it and said if I have before and after pictures then they can look at offering a partial refund. I did not take pictures and therefore they stuck with my $2400.00 bill and in their positive customer service voice told me they completed the scope of work and will not offer a refund. They ended up taking $75 off my bill. I have written maybe two other poor reviews in my life and am so disappointed this experience turned out so poorly. read more

I've used them twice now for tree and shrub removal. Punctual, honest, friendly, hard working crew who really know what they're doing. Highly recommend. read more

Dan gave us an estimate to trim some very large trees in our backyard that are very close to our deck and house. The estimate was very reasonable and he was very attentive to our requests and concerns about the integrity of the trees as well as preserving our privacy.They exceeded our expectations and did an awesome job with the trimming and the cleanup. They went above and beyond with customer service by doing more than what was quoted. I highly recommend them and will be calling again for all our future needs. Thanks guys for an exceptional job! read more

OUTSTANDING work. Dan gave a great estimate and was very helpful in recommending trees to replace 3 pine trees they removed. The pines were so dirty and did nothing for privacy--need shorter trees. Johnny and his crew were outstanding. They arrived on time and worked straight through until they were done. Took less time than I expected. Outstanding clean up job. read more

EXCELLENT SERVICE!! Dan was professional and caring. He provided a reasonable estimate and two days later his professional crew took down two trees for me as I asked. His crew did an AMAZING job - working quickly and safely, Johnny especially. Their work was above and beyond the expected. I was and am very impressed with the Apex Tree Experts. A couple neighbors came over, asking for their contact information, complimenting the work that had been done. Thank you, Dan! read more

We needed to have a very large tree removed. Dan and his team have pruned our trees before but we did get several bids. Dan was professional, took his time to survey the project and gave us an honest bid. His crew was prompt, courteous and did an amazing job. It was seamless. I will only use Apex from now on for our tree needs. I highly recommend Dan and his team. read more

I was going to give Apex a 5 for the work they did taking down my trees. But cleanup has been a real hassle, and the final result is a lot of mess for our family yet to go clean up. The hauling of the largest parts of the trunk was sub-contracted out by Apex to another guy who clearly did not understand that when say you're coming on a certain day, the customer expects you. First he came 3 days late, but forgot his tools, so told me he'd be back in 2 days. He didn't show, so we called Apex, which by now was probably our 5th call back to them, and they got him to commit to coming the next day. All in all, we were first told the by the guys who cut down the tree that the hauler would be there that same day, within a few hours of them leaving. Dan called later and said within 2-3 days. In reality the tree was finally hauled out of here 9 days later. I hate to not give a good review based on a sub-contractor, but Apex ought to take responsibility for the quality of "professional" they are working with to do jobs for them. Because the hauling was done so much later, there was no crew left here for a final cleanup and there are sticks and twigs EVERYWHERE which we will have to rake and have a friend with a truck come by so that we can haul it to a yard waste dump. Given that this was a fairly expensive job (over a thousand dollars), that is disappointing to me. So, if you are looking to have a tree taken down, they do a really good job at that part. But hope that it's all stuff they can take with them that day or you could have a mess on your hands to deal with for a few weeks. I am not sure that we will use Apex again (and we will need more tree work next year). read more
