Western Hemlock Tree & Stump Service helps Cathcart property owners with tree removal, tree trimming and pruning, stump grinding, and storm cleanup. Get a plan for the trees around your home, driveway, or managed property, starting with a free estimate.
Near Cathcart Way and State Route 9, tree work needs to fit the property around it. A tree beside a house calls for a different approach than one with an open landing area. Gates, slopes, fences, neighboring buildings, and underground systems can all influence how the work is planned.
Tell us whether your priority is roof clearance, a damaged tree, an old stump, or space for a landscape project. We review the tree and its surroundings, explain the available options, and agree on the scope before work begins.
Choose help for an immediate concern or plan maintenance around your property’s longer-term needs.
Remove dead, damaged, or poorly placed trees with a method suited to the available space. When a tree stands near a house or fence, the plan may involve taking it down in sections instead of felling it in one piece.
Tree removal details →Address branches near roofs and driveways, remove deadwood, and improve structure with selective pruning. The scope depends on the tree’s condition and the clearance you need, rather than cutting every tree to the same shape.
Pruning services →Clear an unwanted stump from a lawn, planting bed, or future landscape area. Discuss access, grinding depth, and what happens to the grindings before the job. Grinding a stump does not remove every underground root.
Stump grinding details →Call about a fallen tree, suspended branch, or storm damage affecting access or structures. We discuss the situation and scheduling based on the hazards involved. Keep people away from unstable trees and branches while arranging help.
Emergency services →Get guidance on a tree with visible decay, damaged limbs, a changing lean, or concerns around its base. An assessment considers both the tree and what it could affect, helping you decide on pruning, monitoring, or removal.
Tree assessment →Plan tree work for shared grounds, rental properties, business sites, and HOA common areas. Coordinate access, clearance priorities, and debris handling with the people responsible for the property.
Discuss commercial tree care →Before scheduling, we discuss where equipment can travel, where branches and logs can be lowered, and what needs protection. Point out septic components, irrigation, underground utilities, and areas that become soft after rain. Photos of the tree and access route are useful when requesting an estimate.
Tree removal and landscape clearing can involve different requirements. Before authorizing work in a protected area or near a wetland, stream, or slope, confirm the requirements for your parcel with Snohomish County Planning and Development Services. Recorded restrictions and HOA rules may also affect the project.
Review gate width, truck access, slopes, and the route between equipment and trees.
Identify buildings, fences, planting beds, and underground systems before choosing the work method.
Agree on hauling, retained wood, brush cleanup, and stump grindings as part of the estimate.
Understand the proposed work, the reasons for it, and the next steps before scheduling.
Send your Cathcart address, a description of the tree or stump, and photos if available. Let us know about access restrictions and whether the work is urgent. We will follow up to discuss your project and arrange the next step.
We offer tree removal, tree trimming and pruning, stump grinding, storm cleanup, emergency tree service, and tree risk assessment for Cathcart homes and managed properties.
Tree removal cost depends on height, trunk diameter, condition, equipment access, nearby buildings, and the work needed to lower branches and logs. Stump grinding and debris hauling also affect the scope. Request a free estimate for your property rather than relying on a flat price per tree.
Pruning may be an option when the concern involves dead branches, clearance, or selected structural issues. Removal may be appropriate when the tree is dead, severely damaged, or presents a risk that cannot reasonably be managed. An assessment helps you compare the options.
Yes. Call 425-374-8996 about fallen trees, broken limbs, and blocked access. Tell us whether buildings or utility lines are involved so we can discuss the next steps and availability. Stay clear of unstable trees and contact the utility immediately if a tree touches a power line.
Requirements depend on your parcel and the proposed work. Protected areas, wetlands, buffers, recorded restrictions, and development approvals can affect tree removal. Check with Snohomish County Planning and Development Services before scheduling work, and confirm any HOA or easement requirements.
Ask to include stump grinding in the estimate if you want it. Grinding, removal of grindings, backfilling, and replanting are different tasks, so the agreed scope should explain what is included. Let us know about underground utilities, irrigation, or septic components near the stump.
Share the gate width, driveway layout, slope, and distance from parking to the trees. We assess those conditions before choosing equipment and a removal method. A site visit helps establish whether the proposed work is practical and how to protect nearby improvements.
