Marc came out and did a great job with fixing our sprinklers. He came at the time he said he would be here and finished the job.

Great experience working with the professional Western Hemlock team on a challenging project to remove and prune several 100+ ft trees on a residential lot. Brandon provided a detailed assessment, answered all questions, and worked directly with the city to secure approval to proceed. Marc and crew are highly skilled and amazingly precise as they worked together in very close proximity to power lines, our home and our neighbor’s. It’s art in motion. Clean up terrific as well. Highly recommend!

Marc and his crew did a fantastic job - clearly applied great care and consideration to the trees. Marc even gave me pointers on caring for our Italian prune tree. Highly recommend.

Marc and his crew did a fantastic job. They were on-time, professional, and friendly. They removed two large trees (>30ft) and two additional tree stumps. They did such a great job, they made it look like the trees were never there to begin with. I will definitely work with Western Hemlock , Marc and his crew again!

Marc and his crew did a great job pruning some big and small branches, shaping a Japanese maple, pruning back Rhodies, taking out four tree stumps, and taking out invasive holly. They were professional and cleaned all areas very well. Will definitely hire them again!

These guys are the best! Our job was very challenging but they got it done quickly and safely without and issues! Brandon came out soon after we contacted him and gave us a very reasonable quote. The crew was able to do the job sooner than we expected so now our problem tree is gone and we can enjoy the rest of the summer. The crew was very respectful and professional. The tree was very close to our and our neighbors buildings but they got it done with zero damage. We're happy! Our neighbors are happy! Thank you very much! I highly recommend Western Hemlock Tree Service!

What Is Canopy or Crown Reduction?

  • Canopy reduction (also called crown reduction) is the process of selectively cutting back the upper limbs of a tree to reduce its overall height or spread. Unlike topping, which can damage trees, crown reduction is done with proper cuts to:

    • Reduce wind resistance during storms

    • Prevent interference with power lines or roofs

    • Improve sunlight penetration

    • Maintain tree structure and health

    • Reduce the risk of falling limbs

    Frequently Asked Questions – Canopy Reduction Services

    What is canopy reduction?

    Canopy reduction is the selective pruning of branches to reduce a tree’s overall height or spread, improving safety, sunlight exposure, and structural integrity without damaging the tree’s health.

    Is canopy reduction better than tree topping?

    Yes. Canopy reduction is a proper arboricultural practice, while topping is harmful and often leads to disease and instability. We never top trees—our ISA certified arborists use safe, industry-approved techniques.

    When is the best time to perform canopy reduction?

    Late winter to early spring is often ideal, but it depends on the tree species and its health. We provide expert timing recommendations during your consultation.

    Can you reduce the canopy without removing the entire tree?

    Absolutely. The goal of canopy reduction is to maintain a healthy, attractive tree while reducing risk or interference with structures or power lines.

    Do you provide canopy reduction services in Snohomish County?
    Yes! Western Hemlock Tree & Stump Service provides expert canopy reduction services throughout Snohomish, Everett, Mukilteo, Lynnwood, and surrounding areas. Contact us for a free estimate.
