    Final result!
    Tracey S.

    We have an old tulip tree whose branches had grown too heavy in one direction and reached far over our roof in the other. The tree is loved by the whole family and we needed trustworthy care to ensure its well-being in addition to our safety. This team took care to only do the work we specified, respecting the tree's natural wildness and shape while also providing practical thinning. The heavy branches were removed and the roof is now clear. What stands out is how a neighbor described watching them work - he said they were like careful artists, choosing between even the smallest shoots. Another friend said the result was similar to the trimming of a bonsai master. Our tree is much happier, relieved of potential breakage, and we still have the shade covering needed as the front of the house faces West. As a lovely touch, my yard and driveway were left cleaner than before the work had started. They even took away a pile of leaves I stashed in the corner of the yard that I didn't have room for in the compost. Absolutely worth the investment.

    My garden had become The Secret Garden as it was so overgrown, to the point where I couldn't deal with it anymore. I found Seattle Tree Care via Google and did my vetting: A+ BBB, Reviews were awesome--so I called for a consult. Dylan and his 'tree climber' associate were very nice, very informative and listened to all my thoughts adding in their thoughts when needed. The day came for the garden renewal (mind you, this was a Fir Tree, Magnolia, Rhodies, two Japanese Maples, taking down a small Yew Tree, and a few other large bushes that had become trees). Four people came, the site manager took me around to show me their plan, prior to lunch break she did the same to ask what I thought and my thoughts for the rest of the work that day. At the end of the day, once again the walk around, with me claiming my amazement at their work, how nice it looked, the plants were all light and airy now---it truly was a huge project done very efficiently and with very nice workers. Since I did not obtain other bids, I can't speak for value--but I can say that the cost seemed in alignment with my prior pruning of only two trees in the past. I did not think the cost was outside of an acceptable range. I would highly recommend this company based on my experience. I know there are other not so great reviews on YELP; but my experience was totally their opposite. The staff was responsive, great at communication (I was notified by text the team would be arriving 10 minutes earlier!), stellar work and they cleaned up the property of all debris created and just general tree debris. I just can't say enough good things! Thanks Seattle Tree Care for a wonderful experience and stellar work!

    Jason, an in-house arborist, came and gave me good advice and additional information where to salvage wood. Excellent service from him.

    We heard about Apical Tree Services from Plant Amnesty…read more(http://www.plantamnesty.org/home/index.aspx). Plant Amnesty only recommends people who are ISA Certified in tree pruning and actively concerned about tree welfare (something about not topping trees?). We have three massive Big Leaf maple trees on our property on a steep hill. Apical Tree Services came by and provided an estimate for our trees to clean-out the deadwood and clear the lower branches that were too close to the sidewalk. They were very conscious of the privacy that we want to maintain with the tree branches. They worked for quite a few hours with a guy crazy high in our trees cutting out the deadwood, and a man below (who had set up cones to keep passerbys from getting hurt) who would send the branches through a large wood chipper. They cleaned out a ton of dead wood, and the trees looked fantastic and healthy afterwards. The guy (maybe Andrew?) also walked around the trees with me afterward to explain the health of my trees, and a few problems that I should keep my eye on in the next 5-10 years. Professional and I would totally work with them again!

    Wonderful service. My former arborist retired so this was my first time working with Apical,…read morerecommended by my mom. Rodger was very easy to communicate with, helpful and kind. It was so easy to get a quote and work was done very timely. I had a large dead native cherry removed from a very crowded neighborhood in NE Seattle. As requested, they took extra care not to damage any of my many plants surrounding the dead tree and also removed all the rounds and branches. My yard looks pristine after the removal. Will definitely use them again. Price was comparable to other quotes I had. A great value for the quality of work.

    We were quite worried that our big leaning spruce tree might fall in a storm and hit the house, or…read moreworse -- simply no longer be there to bless the home with its beautiful presence! Trent stopped by to take a look and was an absolute pleasure to discuss the risk posed by the tree. You can tell he lives, breathes, and loves trees. I asked a lot of questions eager for his expertise. We left feeling extremely comfortable we can keep our tree, with good homework on how to gauge future risk. Thanks Trent and NW Arbor!

    We've used NW Arboriculture several times over the years, and they've been consistently honest,…read moreethical, competitively priced, and skilled. After our most recent project with them, I decided it was finally time to give Trent, Heather, and their outstanding team the great review they deserve. For this project, we obtained bids from three other companies in the area while waiting for Trent to come out and bid the project. (NW Arboriculture's only drawback is that they typically book out pretty far in advance, but I'll explain why that may be a good thing a bit later.) Two out of the other three local companies counseled us that we needed to remove a couple of very large trees (that we hadn't been worried about) - at a cost of thousands of dollars per tree - that were in danger of falling down due to disease or damage. Interestingly, their recommendations for which trees needed removal were not identical. The third company's estimator did not recommend the same removals, but the post-visit bidding process was strangely non-specific, and he contradicted himself multiple times during a single conversation. As we were still waiting for NW Arboriculture to come out and bid the project, we hired an independent arborist for a couple hundred bucks to come out and evaluate every tree and shrub on our property. That was money well-spent. He explained why much of what the first two companies' estimators told us was completely wrong. I suppose the generous interpretation is that they just didn't know what they didn't know. The less generous interpretation is that they're frankly unethical. When Trent from NW Arboriculture came out to bid the project, he told us the same stuff as did the independent arborist, which was tremendously reassuring. Further, the great thing about NWA is that the person who bids the project works the project. We had so many items on our bid, that I don't think things would have gone as smoothly if one of the other companies (which don't necessarily have the estimator on the job site) had done the job. Anyway, this is part of the reason why it takes so long for NWA to come out to bid; they have to balance giving estimates with actually doing work. But it's worth the wait. With respect to the work itself, the team was able to take down a bunch of trees without damaging any shrubs that they promised in advance to not damage. I think one had to be sacrificed, but we were counseled about that during the bidding process. They also were very patient and easy to work with during the trimming of some large trees, as we gave them feedback regarding the look we were trying to achieve. About 4-5 hours after starting this sizable project, they wrapped up and cleared away all debris, to the point where our driveway looks more pristine than it has all year. Then they moved on to my neighbor's house and spent the rest of the day there. I asked him if he was happy with their work, and he responded that they did outstanding work for him as well. In summary, I may not even bother with multiple bids in the future, as this process has proven that NWA is clearly one of the best tree removal companies, and unfortunately some of the others in this area are either less knowledgable and/or frankly unethical.
