Washington Tree and Lawn Care

We've been very happy with them, I would recommend them. They do our pest control and do a better job then our last company. The workers are very good, it's usually the same guy each time. You get familiar with him and he gets familiar with what our preferences are. Everything looks much better than it did with our other company. We had one minor problem where it looked like the fertilizer wasn't even, the lawn looked a little striped. We called them up and they were here the very next day to refertilize. We were happy with that. There was another issue where they were putting the iron down and the iron left orange rust stains on the concrete, we called them and let them know. They were out the next day with a chemical to scrub it all off. They are very responsive.

We have been using Washington Tree Service for years -- we inherited them when they bought Senske. For the first several years, everything was great. Over the past 2-3 years, I've noticed a change. They no longer call prior to their visit. The spraying is either very frugal or not very effective. Several years ago, when I was more happy with them, they notified me that my Kwanzan (?) cherry tree has shotgun disease. :-( They said thatwhen kept under control, it will not kill the tree. However, an early spring spray was extremely important while the tree is still dormant. The next spring, they sprayed the tree and kept it under control. However, these past few years, the damage looks worse. While they come in spring to spray, I now suspect they have not been spraying the tree for shotgun disease as we discussed 3-4 years ago. I have other concerns as well. Last summer, I cut back my rhodies by one-half to reshape them. As the leaves grew back, the were beautiful and lush. This spring however, even with the regular spray service, the new leaves are full of root weevil damage! It looks as if they haven't ever been treated. I'm really disappointed. Also, both last spring and this spring, the spray they used on my pyracantha burned much of the new leaves so the bushes look brown all around the exterior. Last year's spray also damaged my lilac and hydrangeas. This spring when I called them to complain and ask for a new service man, I never heard back. Then about 3 weeks later, someone shows up at the house, completely unannounced, and fortunately my husband was there. My husband showed him the rhodies and pyracantha, and the Wash Tree Service man said the pyracantha has blight, but did not say/do anything about the rhodies. The next week, I took the pyracantha to a master gardener clinic, and they had a tenured professional there who said the damage was clearly an application issue, and not something within the leaf. While I'm not sure who to believe, I am really disappointed with the decreased quality and service. I have been shopping around for another company to use, but am not finding a lot of helpful info on just the trees/shrubs programs -- most all include the lawn.

Everything went well. They were a good company to work with.

In the last year/year and a half, they took over another company, Eastside Spray. I have been very happy with them prior to the take over and even now. I have no complaints at all. They are on top of all of our needs. Overall, I've been pleased with them. I like the follow-up they provide and reliability.

They do a good job. They are good about doing clean-up. They call me ahead of time and are professional about how they carry out the job.

They arrived promptly and accomplished the work quickly. They cleaned up the area completely when they were finished. (When they were hired, they were located in Edmonds, WA, so I cannot verify if they are now the same owners.) The date is approximate, as this was a few years ago.

All went fine. They came promptly to look at trees, suggest solution and give a bid. They originally looked at the trees in the fall, but said the best time to spray was spring. we called in the spring, came promptly in June then again in July, and charged us exactly as quoted. they were very careful to only spray the trees and nothing else. very friendly and courteous as well.

Service rep arrived on time - did job promptly and professionally.

We are very please with their service. They are prompt, call ahead to confirm service. Call in advance to confirm we still want the service and do not constantly call to sell additional service like some of the competition.

They are courteous, were not high pressure and gave us some free advice.

They charge per visit. They are punctual. I have asked them to call ahead before they come and do the spraying and they always do that. We haven't had any problems with them at all.

I have used them for years and I will continue to use them.

I have used them for many years.My lawn,shrubs and trees has been very health. The one thing I have not been thrilled about is their flower bed weed treatment - perhaps my weeds just don't want to behave.

Injection always goes well. They used different stuff this year, requiring earlier injection. Didn't notice any odor, but the old stuff kind of stunk for a few days. Re dogwood spray: first spray is supposed to go on just as buds are breaking open. I found that calling gets quicker service rather than waiting for them to figure it out. Weather plays a big role.

Prompt, consistent. Prices reasonable and stable. Trees really responded well. Phone and mail contact from the company have been accurate and kept to the minimum necessary.

They did a pretty good job but my trees are all butchered.

Excellent service. I have had Washington Tree Service for years, spraying yard, spider repellent spraying, etc. and would highly reccommend them.

Tyler and his crew of two did a great job of pruning, cleared debris quickly as limbs and branches fell, minimized the damage to shrub and flower beds, and cleaned up completely at the end. The job took approx. 2-1/2 hours. We're very satisfied, and not only have a more airy, well shaped tree, but look forward to more sunshine in the late afternoon and a major reduction in the amount of nuisance "blowdown" -- dead small branches and twigs that frequently fell onto our lawn and nearly gave us backaches picking up those darned things almost every day. Great job, guys.

Pacific Dogwood trees suffer from anthracnose in this area. If left alone, it will kill the tree. Washington Tree Service has sprayed my tree for several years (10? 12?) and it seems to hold the disease at bay. The tree is beautiful right now. Almost switched companies about five years ago when the sprayer at the time retired. The replacement didn't seem to agree that the tree needed to be soaked all over, but after some "discussions," he seems to do it my way a little better.

It has gone well overall. There have been no problems and when I call to ask questions the folks are quick to respond. I find the staff knowledgable, friendly and personable. It appears to be run like a family business. Again, I like the company and the service they provide.

They are very good. They park in the front and pull the hose around to the very back of the yard. They manage to spray the tree until it is dripping without soaking the whole yard. This is our second season. We missed the first spray last year because we moved here in the spring and I didn't get it set up in time, so we did have some worms but it wasn't their fault. I called this year to make sure we were on the schedule and they said yes and they told me when the first spray is usually done. They are always very polite.

This arrangement works well. If we need extra services, we call and they take care of it. I especially like that they use organic sprays, i.e., not harmful to pets or people.

Washington Tree and Lawn Care Service have always been very good. They are very neat and tidy. They clean up after themselves. I will continue to use Washington Tree and Lawn Care Service for my future lawn care needs.

They are consistent and thorough in their coverage. They always leave a bill showing exactly what was done and what material/chemicals were used.

We did not use Washington Tree Service to remove the trees.
