Insect & Disease Control
Redmond's 37.4% canopy coverage creates dense, connected woodland across neighborhoods – ideal conditions for Pacific Northwest pests and diseases to spread between properties. Sticky residue on your deck from aphids? Thinning canopy on your conifers? Our licensed applicators identify the specific pest or pathogen affecting your trees and deliver treatments calibrated to the problem, without risk to your family, pets, or surrounding plantings.
Common issues we treat include bark beetles and wood borers in stressed evergreens, fungal infections like Swiss needle cast and Phytophthora root rot, heavy aphid infestations on maples and ornamentals, and scale buildup on landscape shrubs. Catching these issues early prevents small problems from becoming costly threats to tree health and property value.

Tree Inspections
Redmond's mix of mature residential canopy, hillside terrain, and ongoing development pressure across Overlake and Marymoor Village makes proactive tree evaluation essential. Our TRAQ-qualified arborists examine each tree's structural condition, root stability, and overall health, then provide clear recommendations tailored to your property and goals.
An inspection is especially worthwhile when you're buying or selling a home with established trees, beginning a remodel or addition near the root zones of trees you want to keep, or confirming that your trees meet Redmond's significant tree retention standards. Properties where large canopy grows close to rooflines, driveways, or slopes benefit most from routine professional assessment.

Fertilization & Soil Management
Soil conditions vary considerably across Redmond's neighborhoods. The rich valley soils along the Sammamish River differ from the compacted ground common in newer developments. Our ISA Certified Arborists test your soil and evaluate root-zone conditions on-site, then design a treatment plan targeting the specific deficiencies.
A well-designed soil management plan improves tree vigor, strengthens resistance to pests and disease, and helps your landscape maintain its health and appearance for years to come.

Tree Removal & Stump Grinding
Redmond requires a permit for the removal of any significant tree, defined as six inches or more in diameter at breast height, and the city limits how many healthy trees can be removed per year based on lot size. Our team manages the entire permit process, so you stay in full compliance with Redmond's tree code.
When preservation isn't possible, precision matters. Our crane-assisted capabilities allow us to safely remove large trees near homes, decks, and other structures while minimizing impact to your landscape. Our removal includes full cleanup, optional below-grade stump grinding, and protection of adjacent plantings, hardscapes, and structures.

DID YOU KNOW?
Redmond's tree regulations are among the most comprehensive in the region. The city requires permits for removing most regulated trees, with specific requirements for significant and landmark trees. Removal permits typically require replacement trees at a 1:1 ratio or higher, depending on the tree's size and designation.
For residential lots, annual tree removal limits apply based on lot size; typically, one to two significant trees per year for average-sized properties. If you need to remove more than that, you'll need a Tree Exception Request approved by the Department Director. Development sites must keep at least 35% of all significant trees, according to Redmond Zoning Codes.
Because Redmond's regulations can be complex, many homeowners work with an arborist to evaluate their trees and help navigate the permit process.
