I recently hired High Quality Tree Service for tree removal and trimming at my property in…read moreMukilteo, Washington, and they did an excellent job from start to finish. Communication was clear, they showed up on time, and the crew worked efficiently and professionally. The cleanup was top-notch -- they left the yard spotless, which you don't always see with tree work. Pricing was fair for the quality of service, and everything was handled exactly as promised. You can tell they take pride in their work. If you're looking for reliable tree removal, tree trimming, or stump grinding in Mukilteo or nearby areas like Edmonds or Lynnwood, I highly recommend High Quality Tree Service. I would definitely use them again.

Phone number on site didn't match the phone number on their quote (but they didn't answer either). But in the end, the team did show up and they were very friendly and efficient. The results look good but I hope the company improves its communication and responsiveness.

We had part of an ~80ft maple fall in our backyard on a Wednesday morning in May 2024 around 1am,…read moreand 3 of its other offshoots were still standing. A number of services came to give us quotes that Wednesday and Thursday. Matthew from Dominant said they could take our tree down as an emergency service that Friday and gave us a solid quote for the job. We chose them for their timeliness and safety - the use of a bucket truck rather than climbers. His team of 4 arrived around 11am. They had the fallen tree cleared except for logs we requested be left and cut down the remaining standing trees by 5pm! We were so impressed with the speed. They left one truckload of wood chips from the branches for us. Many of the rounds were enormous and left in hard places to get to, but that was in part due to a damaged shed the tree had knocked over. The invoice was sent over a week later, and we paid after that. Overall a solid experience, and I'd definitely call them for other tree removal.

Always a great job, they clean up well and are on time and reasonable. Scheduling was easy.read more

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.

Very quick in their response to an emergency situation (tree vs. roof). Easy to work with.read more

I've had the pleasure of having Urban Arborist do work for me a few times over the past 15 years or…read moreso. I've found Ian Scott, who is the owner and principal point of contact, to be courteous, prompt and professional. Jobs with him always start with a site visit, where he looks over the work that needs to be done, makes suggestions, offers advice, and ultimately provides an estimate for the work that needs to be done. His estimates are always accurate (I've never had one go over), and his team is thorough in the work they do. They do all manner of tree work, including removal (including large trees), thinning, even sculpting and trimming. His team is also trained to scale large trees with climbing equipment, so they can thin and trim even in very tallest of trees. I will continue to use Urban Arborist into the future, and highly recommend this local business.

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.
