Shoreline Tree & Stump Removal Services
Got a tree that’s more of a nuisance than a neighbor? Let’s roll up our sleeves and take care of that! At Neat & Tidy, we specialize in safe and efficient tree removal in Shoreline, even in the trickiest spots. Once we’ve taken down the tree, we’ll grind that stump right down, giving you back your beautiful outdoor space.
Is It Time for a Tree Check?
Wondering if you need our help? Here’s a quick checklist to get you started:
- Dead or Dying Trees: Is a tree leaning or sporting cracks from a storm?
- Root Issues: Are roots lifting your sidewalks or threatening your plumbing?
- Overgrown Trees: Do you have conifers blocking sunlight or scraping your roof?
- Invasive Species: Are pesky plants like holly or thicket plum invading your yard?
Let’s face it—if it’s a hazard, a little pruning isn’t going to cut it. Removal and smart replanting is the way to go!
Our Tree Removal Process: How We Do It
We make tree removal easy and stress-free. Here’s our approach:
- Sectional Dismantle: Using rope rigging for controlled lowers, we keep your roofs, fences, and gardens safe.
- Crane Picks (if necessary): For those large limbs in tight spaces, we’ll bring in the crane to get the job done efficiently.
- Chipping & Haul-off: We chip up the brush and cut logs to manageable sizes. Want us to leave the chips? Just say the word!
- Stump Grinding: We grind stumps typically 6–12” below grade (deeper if requested) and chase any surface roots.
- Backfill & Restore: Once we grind the stump, we’ll replace the grindings with topsoil or mulch and tidy up the area—perfect for new sod, flower beds, or gravel.
- Utility Locate: Safety first! We call 811 before we grind to dodge any surprises with underground lines.
Navigating Permits & Power Lines
- Permits: Some trees, especially those near streets or planting strips, may require permits. No worries—we’ll identify any issues and help with the paperwork.
- Power Lines: We respect the safety zones around primary power lines. If your tree is too close, we’ll coordinate with the utility company to ensure safety.
- Steep Slopes/Critical Areas: We’re extra careful in these zones. We’ll keep you updated on potential permits and timelines.
Keep Your Yard in Shape: Our Annual Maintenance Plan
Once that troublesome tree is gone, let’s keep your remaining trees healthy and thriving:
- Hazard Scans before storm season to spot any deadwood or clearance issues.
- Structural Pruning on strong trees and hedges to keep your yard looking sharp!
- Stump Site Follow-Up to refill low spots as grindings settle.
- Replanting Plans to find the ideal tree for your space—considering roots, light, and height!
We’re all about low-maintenance landscaping—fewer emergencies, cleaner growth, and less hassle for you!
Choose Your Service Cadence
Select a maintenance schedule that fits your lifestyle:
- Quarterly: Perfect for storm prep plus two tune-ups for hedges and fast growers.
- Bi-Monthly: A balanced approach for most Shoreline yards.
(Fresh removals or hedge catch-ups might kick off with monthly visits for 60–90 days before tapering off.)
