We’re in business to serve our customers and to take care of the trees that make the Pacific Northwest so special. Commitment to Homes and Businesses For our customers, our job is to maintain the trees that provide beauty, shade and comfort, while reducing the risk of structural damage or bodily harm caused by falling trees, branches or debris. Properly planted and maintained trees also reduce fire risk and maximize a property’s view potential. Commitment to Trees Trees provide the air we breathe, natural habitats for birds and squirrels, deep roots to hold the landscape and unparalleled natural beauty. While some people think suburban trees are an obstruction to views of the water and mountains, trees are a beautiful and important part of the landscape; they’re worth preserving and protecting whenever possible. Large Tree Experts Arbor Magic Tree Services can handle any kind of tree maintenance or removal project. We utilize current state of the art methods and equipment, including saws, safety gear, trucks and lifts. We’re large tree maintenance experts, using spikeless methods whenever possible to scale trunks and prevent damage while inspecting or pruning. Guaranteed Work We’re prompt, polite and we guarantee our work. We’ll take the utmost care of your property while we’re there and clean up all of our debris when we’re done (save for a minor amount of sawdust that makes for good mulch). Why Insurance Matters Most importantly, we’re licensed, bonded and insured to eliminate your financial risk and liability while services are being performed.

Steve, the owner, examined my trees for health and possible problems and provided different options. Worked with me to choose the most important work to do and to stay within my budget. No hard sell. Steve and crew arrived on time and checked with me before beginning work. Crew did a good job of clean up. Crew chief checked with me on my level of satisfaction before leaving.
Description of Work: Removed a couple dead trees, trimmed and provided more light for a vine maple, climbed and cleaned up deadwood on several evergreen trees, raised the camopy of several other evergreen trees, removed some smal holly trees. Noticed a problem with a spar towards the top of a fir and removed it.

It turned out very well. They were in and out within a day. They worked with me and got done what I wanted. I was very satisfied with them. They were also good about coordinating with the neighbors, and let them know when they would be around so they wouldn't wake people up. The also had a wood chipper that they used. There were no surprises and I knew exactly what it was going to cost. They are a good outfit.

The service turned out good. They got the job done in less than half a day. They had a shredder that they pulled in and they got rid of all the branches. They also cut the wood to a desired length for me that would be easy to pick up.

They were pretty good. They did what they needed to do. They trees were fine and the cleanup is great. They cut everything up into small pieces and cleaned up. They were the cheapest of all the quotes that we got. They got the job done in about 4 hours. They sent out a crew of 5 guys to complete the job. They trimmed about 6-7 trees in total.
Description of Work: They trimmed the trees so that they are even on both sides. They took down some dead branches. The trees were maple and evergreen.

I had been considering getting my trees trimmed and saw that this team was working on a neighbor's trees so I got an estimate. They were very pleasant and gave what seemed like a fair price. When they could not make the appointed time, they called to let me know. I have had my maples trimmed before and know that they are a specialized tree, not to be over trimmed. I do, however, want to get my money's worth. The trimmers did not come to my door and ask if I had specific concerns or if I was satisfied with the job. Nor did the owner return and ask how it went. Fortunately, I was home and went out to point out some heavy areas that needed more taken off but the owner never checked on the completed job. I would give it a solid B.

The ArborMagic crew arrived early this morning, as expected, to prune a large red-leaf maple in our front yard that was far too dense and a massive 7-trunk big-leaf maple in our backyard that had storm and age damage. Both trees had lots of dead wood that needed to be removed, some of which was hazardous to us and our neighbors. The ArborMagic crew was very friendly and professional starting from the estimate performed several days earlier through the extensive work and thorough cleanup. In addition to making our trees much healthier and safer, they carefully moved our deck furniture out of the way before climbing the trees and put it all back in place afterward. I'm very pleased with the work and the price.

Response from Arbor Magic Tree Services
Hi Member, I wish i would have known about the plants that were damaged when we were doing the work at your house, Tree work can be a little messy because of the scope of work dealing with large trees, so sometimes there are minor mishaps with small plants surrounding the removals, it's our policy to pay for OR replace anything damaged in the process of producing tree work for a customer. I will have Berl Shaffer give you a call and hopefully we can help you out with this matter. We strive for 100% satisfaction and to my knowledge this is the only, even close to negative feedback we have EVER received. You can also contact me anytime to discuss this matter.

Once I contacted them, Arbor Magic came out and gave us a detailed estimate. On the day we agreed for the work to be done they sent a five person crew. They got right to work and completed the work the same day. They hauled all the debris away...and it was a lot! They also did a nice job cleaning up the front & back yards. In addition we asked them to be careful of our yard lights and they were. We had one tree in need of a little more work. They sent one of their crew members out a few days later and he finished the detail work we requested at no extra charge. We found Arbor Magic to be professional and they got right to work. I would recommend them and we plan to call on them again in the years ahead.
Description of Work: We have six very large Maples that needed height reduction and thinning.

It went great and it was so refreshing to hear a company not push for work. Berl honestly told us we didn't need anything done, and also warned us about others. Why would he said no work was needed, if it wasn't the case? I have since contacted Mariotti Tree Company (they're on Angie's List too) and told them we're not interested and their scam didn't work on us. I would definitely call Arbor Magic again when we need work done. I appreciated the honesty and no hard sell for work not needed.
Description of Work: Berl came to our house as one of three tree companies we requested advice and bids from to evaluate our trees. We'd been in the house 7 months so didn't know much about how the trees were maintained. We previously talked to Mariotti Tree Company and felt it was a scam. Berl was very nice and looked over the property and said the previous owner did a great job maintaining the trees. He didn't think any work was needed. He explained about wind-sailing and showed us how to tell if a tree needed it. He also warned us about other companies coming and pushing for unnecessary work, and asked if that if we had seen that happen. He left his card and said to call if we had any questions.

Overall, the job was professionally and efficiently performed with attentive and careful workers.
Description of Work: Estimator overestimated the difficulty in taking down a problem cedar with multiple tops. He stated the rounds would have to be lowered by rope but the crew dropped them safely and accurately. The cuttng crew was extremely skilled and reasonably careful not to damage the nearby shrubbery, fence and house structure when felling the tree in sections. They cut the logs in sections so I could split for firewood. Branches and debris were cleared but piles of sawdust were left. The job took less than a morning as the clearing and cutting crew was adequately staffed.

A tree consultant (Alex) knocked on my door one day and politely asked if I had any need for Arbor Magic's services. I said yes and he scheduled a follow up visit with a project manager (Berl) for a convenient time a couple days later. Berl arrived when promised and quickly assessed the work I wanted done (arbor vine trimming and removing a 15-20 foot tree). Berl offered his price estimate ($400 + tax) that was in the range of what I thought was an extremely fair deal based on previous estimates I'd had done in the past. I agreed and we scheduled the work for two days later. Berl said it was not necessary for me to be at home, so for that reason we didn't set an exact time - which was fine with me. The evening before the day the crew as to arrive, Berl called me to let me know that due to some storm damage in nearby neighborhoods, they had to push the work back by one day. I appreciated the phone call. The crew arrived mid-morning on the (re)scheduled day of the job. I quickly reiterated what needed to be done and they started to do their thing. They also politely asked my neighbors to move their cars temporarily so they wouldn't be in the way of the tree cutting. The 3-man crew did their work in about 75 minutes, cleaned up everything as I requested and were on their way. I was extremely happy with the service of Arbor Magic from begining to end. I would hire them again and recommend them without any hesitation based on my experience.
Description of Work: I had a large arbor where the vines had taken over the top and were 3-4 feet deep in places. The vines on the arbor needed to be trimmed and evened out. I also had a blue spruce tree (about 15-20 feet tall?) that I wanted to cut down before it got too big - it was near a lot of wires and my sewer access line. There were a lot of small trees and bushes nearby that I didn't want to be disturbed.
