It was sad as it had given us 17 years of beautiful blossoms and plums, but we didn't want it falling on anyone and knew it had to go. My hubs Marcus called Ballard Tree Service for an assessment and they came out quickly. They handled the tree removal permits with the city and we were able to book a removal date a few weeks later. Jake the arborist and his two crew members did a fantastic job removing our tree! They had to remove it carefully while not disturbing the neighbors' maple trees and other plants that were very close to it. They were prompt, friendly, and efficient. They thought it might take three hours but it took them only about 1.5 hours. They also asked if we wanted any of the tree for firewood or projects. We said no, so they took away all the branches, trunk pieces, and debris. We were pleased with how the whole removal process went. A few days later, the office contacted Marcus to see if it went well and if we had any feedback or requests for them before they sent us an invoice. Great customer service! We highly recommend Ballard Tree Service and would definitely hire them again.

Tree133 gets my strongest personal endorsement. If you're planning to have tree work done in the…read moreSeattle area, look no further I called Tree133 about removing two small dead trees from in front of my house and trimming branches overhanging our roof. Treee133 thoroughly impressed me; I was extremely pleased with the every aspect of our interactions. Everyone involved was knowledgable, professional, and very friendly, from initial contact through the free assessment/estimate and finally to the work crew who came out to handle the job. They were prompt in all their responses, showed up when they said they would, and finished the work quickly and cleanly. I could not have been happier with the outcome. I will not hesitate to call them again If I find myself needing similar services.

We had both safety and view concerns with the trees on our property. Tree133 was extremely…read moreprofessional all the way through - prompt, timely, organized, focused on safety and tree health, meticulous in pruning, property protection, and clean up, detail oriented and courteous. They weren't the cheapest or the most expensive bid we got for the work; but they were the most professional, the most organized, and the most focused on both the aesthetic work of the trimming AND the health of the trees. They are a great company to work with if: you want the work done well, the first time. You want your trees and property to look better afterwards. You don't want to worry about a person accidentally catapulting off a hundred foot tall Douglas Fir on your property. You value arborists that show up on time and are a well organized, detail-oriented team. On my research: One company reached out to us for tree work when we first moved in - their quote was triple what Tree133 ended up charging, so I put the work off for a couple of years. When I decided to get quotes for the work: another company was nice, but did not show up when we asked them to for the quote because I wanted to walk through the work with them, took a week to deliver the quote, and was half of what Tree133 ended up charging. A third company didn't even call us back. A fourth company was so disorganized that we couldn't even set up a time for a quote.

James came out and looked things over, understanding what I needed. He pointed out one tree that need some TLC, which I appreciated. The resulting bid was, we felt, very reasonable, so we scheduled the work. The crew of six arrived and within about two hours, had the work done and everything cleaned up. I would highly recommend this business to anyone looking for professional arborist work.

We have many trees on our property, and from now on Tree People will be the first we call when work is needed.

My neighbor and I hired Western Hemlock Tree & Stump Removal to do selective pruning on a shared…read moreWestern white pine, and the result was devastating. We agreed to pruning after a branch had previously fallen on my neighbor's house, so we wanted the work done responsibly and according to an arborist's recommendations. The tree is also classified as a Tier 2 tree under Seattle code (previously called an "exceptional tree"), which made it even more important that the pruning be done carefully and conservatively. Before any work was done, I hired an arborist to evaluate the tree and provide a report, which was referenced in the contract. Unfortunately, it became obvious afterward that they either never read the report or completely ignored its recommendations. The tree was massively overtrimmed and heavily underskirted to the point that it now looks mutilated. I am genuinely depressed every time I look at it. What was once a beautiful mature tree now looks stripped and unnatural. The company never communicated with us directly before doing the work and instead coordinated only with my neighbor while I was out of town. At no point did they review the plan with us, discuss the arborist recommendations, or confirm the scope of pruning before cutting. To their credit, they did provide a partial refund afterward, but it does not make up for the irreversible damage done to the tree or the distress this has caused. We hired professionals because we wanted careful, informed tree care -- not permanent damage. Extremely disappointed.
