Our team provides precision pruning and structural shaping services across the Willamette Valley & Portland Metro, ensuring your property remains both beautiful and biologically sound for years to come.
At Santiam Tree Service, our pruning philosophy is rooted in science. We understand that every cut is a wound; therefore, no branch is removed without a specific biological or structural reason. Serving the Willamette Valley and Portland Metro, we ensure your trees don’t just look good—they thrive.
We begin by evaluating the structural integrity and health of your tree. We identify deadwood, disease, and crossing branches to determine exactly which cuts are necessary for the tree’s long-term vitality.
Every cut changes a tree’s growth, so we don’t cut without a reason. We develop a strategy—whether for crown cleaning, thinning, or reduction—that meets your aesthetic goals while respecting the tree’s biology.
Our skilled crew utilizes proper pruning techniques to shape your tree. We carefully remove selected branches to improve airflow, correct imbalances, and enhance structural strength without damaging the trunk.
We treat your property with respect. Once the shaping is complete, we chip and haul away all pruned branches and debris, leaving your yard clean and your trees looking their best.
Look for common signs such as dead or broken branches, overgrowth that blocks light, or a tree that looks structurally out of balance or "lopsided." You might also notice the tree appears unhealthy or lacks vigor. If you see any of these issues, it is likely time for an assessment.
