5-Star Review for Erik Nye - The Tree Guy…read more I cannot recommend Erik Nye and his team highly enough. We hired Erik to prune several large Douglas fir trees on our residential property in West Seattle, and the entire experience--from initial contact to final cleanup--was exceptional in every way.Erik's work was truly above and beyond. The pruning was precise, thoughtful, and clearly guided by deep expertise in tree health and aesthetics. He took the time to walk the property with us, explain his recommendations, and ensure the trees not only looked beautiful but were set up for long-term strength and vitality. His crew worked efficiently, safely, and with great care around our home and landscaping. Every aspect of the job was handled professionally and left our property looking better than we could have imagined.What truly sets Erik apart, though, is the person he is. He is incredibly charismatic, radiates positivity, and approaches every interaction with genuine good will. It's clear he loves what he does, and that enthusiasm is contagious. He's also an outstanding mentor to his employees--his team was respectful, skilled, and clearly well-trained under his leadership. If you need tree care in the Seattle area, look no further. Erik Nye is the gold standard. He is a superior professional and an absolute pleasure to work with. Highest possible recommendation! Thank you, Erik!

What I appreciated most were his communications and timeliness. He was one of the first to respond to my project and get me scheduled for a quote. I had an additional request after the quote, and when he had a question about it, he called me to get clarity on what I needed. I appreciated that he contacted me to talk through it rather than making assumptions. He was also on time to both the estimate appointment and the job itself. He did a great job, and I'd call him again when I have another tree-related project.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.
