Sammamish Tree & Stump Removal Services
Is a tree casting a shadow (or a hazard) over your yard? Instead of waiting for the worst to happen, let’s tackle that issue head-on! We specialize in safe and efficient tree removal, even in the trickiest spots, followed by grinding the stump so you can reclaim your outdoor space.
What’s the Problem?
Here’s a quick checklist to see if you need our help:
- Dead or Dying Trees: Is there a tree that’s leaning or has cracks from a storm?
- Root Issues: Are roots lifting your sidewalks, driveways, or threatening your side sewers?
- Overgrown Trees: Do conifers block sunlight or scrape against your roof and gutters?
- Invasive Species: Are annoying plants like holly, willow, or thicket plum trying to take over your yard?
Let’s be real: if it poses a real danger, pruning won’t cut it. Removal and smart replanting are the way to go!
What We Remove & How We Do It
Here’s how we make tree removal a breeze:
- Sectional Dismantle: Using rope rigging for controlled lowers, we ensure your roofs, fences, and gardens stay safe.
- Crane Picks (when needed): For large limbs in tight spaces, we’ll bring in the crane for efficiency.
- Chipping & Haul-off: We chip the brush and cut logs to manageable lengths. Want us to leave the chips? Just say the word!
- Stump Grinding: We grind stumps typically 6–12” below grade (deeper if you ask), and chase any main surface roots.
- Backfill & Restore: After grinding, we replace the grindings with topsoil/mulch and rake the area clean—perfect for sod, flower beds, or gravel.
- Utility Locate: Safety first! We call 811 before we grind to avoid any surprises with underground lines.
Permits, Power Lines & Reality Checks
- Permits: Some trees, especially those on the street or planting strips, may need permits. Don’t sweat it; we’ll flag any issues and help with the paperwork.
- Power Lines: We respect the safety zone around primary power lines. If your tree is too close, we’ll coordinate with the utility company to make sure everything’s handled safely.
- Steep Slopes/Critical Areas: Extra care is essential here. We’ll keep you informed about potential permits and timelines.
Our Annual Maintenance Plan (Your Yard’s Routine)
Once that pesky tree is gone, let’s keep your remaining trees healthy and happy:
- Hazard Scans before storm season to spot deadwood or clearance issues.
- Structural Pruning on strong trees and hedges—keeping your yard looking sharp!
- Stump Site Follow-Up to top up low spots as grindings settle.
- Replanting Plans to find the perfect tree for your space—think roots, light, and height!
We’re all about low-maintenance landscaping. Fewer emergencies, cleaner growth, and less hassle for you!
Service Cadences (Pick What Fits)
Choose a maintenance schedule that suits your lifestyle:
- Quarterly: Perfect for storm prep plus two tune-ups for hedges and fast growers.
- Bi-Monthly: A balanced approach for most Sammamish yards.
(Fresh removals or hedge catch-up might kick off with monthly visits for 60–90 days before tapering off.)
What Annual Maintenance Includes
Here’s what you can expect from our annual maintenance:
- A walkthrough & priority list (check for clearance, hazards, and view lines).
- Targeted pruning on remaining trees—no topping, ever!
- Shaping hedges/screens for clean, attractive lines.
- Leveling and topping up soil at former stump sites.
- Debris chipping/hauling with a spotless cleanup.

Here’s why you should consider regular maintenance:
