Tree Removal
Trees are vital to our environment, both practically and aesthetically. They're important to the air we breathe and to our natural visual landscape. Sometimes, though, trees need to be removed for a variety of reasons: poor health, inadequate landscape planning, or for safety issues, to name a few. We are specialists in working in areas with complex or tight work zones! We are EHAP certified to work around power lines and we have an ISA Certified Arborist on staff. We provide free estimates always!
Tree Trimming & Pruning
This picture provides an excellent example of the kind of fine work we do! Proper pruning improves the health and appearance of trees and prolongs life within the tree. Careful trimming in Gig Harbor WA removes dead, dying, or diseased wood to maintain and enhance the shape and beauty of the tree, also allowing for more daylight and airflow. We adhere to pruning guidelines established and certified by the International Society of Arboriculture (ISA). Your trimming needs may not be this fancy or ornate, but we'd love to provide our always free estimate for all your trimming & pruning needs!
Cabling & Bracing
Trees may lose their structural integrity due to pests, disease, weather, or just from inherent natural flaws that develop with normal tree growth. When these situations occur, cabling and bracing can provide needed support, enabling the tree to continue safely. Very often cabling and bracing can delay indefinitely a costly or aesthetically displeasing tree removal!
Stump Grinding
Stumps, except those that are a planned part of your landscape, are often less than attractive, except for attracting unwanted pests! Our equipment grinds the stump into mulch that fills the hole very nicely.
Storm Damage Clean Up
We are available for storm damage clean up and tree removal! Our expertise and equipment enable us to take your storm damage response in Poulsbo, Gig Harbor, Silverdale, WA, swiftly and safely from disaster to clean and/or covered until repairs can be effected.
Tree Evaluation & Consulting
Our Certified Arborist is available to evaluate an individual tree or the whole property. We provide a wide range of consultation services. Contact us for more information.

I want to tell you how satisfied we are with the work your men did for us after 2 days of first class work. I haven't seen such diligent, capable, and courteous workers for a long time, especially the fellow who leads the crew. It's nice to see there are still some around. I am reminded that these things don't just happen. Somebody found the right guys, trained them well, and treats them generously, as they deserve. I suspect that somebody is you. So the congratulations go to you as well. Keep up the good work!

Great people and very professional.

We were absolutely thrilled by the professionalism, safety, and courtesy that your team exhibited while removing the trees. Outstanding work! Your guys even put up with an audience of our neighbors, as this was apparently the most excitement our street has seen in years. So please tell your crew that we said thank you for doing such great work.

I want to share a Thank You and Appreciation to Jackie, Rick, Patrick and Spencer and for Darrel Emel's Tree Service, while once again, providing a 5 Star customer service and satisfaction. I think Jackie felt my apprehension and fear on the telephone regarding a leaning Hemlock in the back yard that could do some collateral damage whereas she was able to have Rick come out the next day to look at the situation and provide an estimate whereas he was able to arrange a crew to come out the next morning in part to the situation and my concern. The following morning, Patrick and Spencer, in the most professional and courteous manner, had the tree cut down and hauled away in chips with a cleanup second to none. Thank You, once again, Jackie, Rick, Patrick and Spencer for your outstanding customer service and satisfaction as Darrel Emel's Tree Service is the BEST!!

Had Levi come out weeks ago for a bid on a tree that was very close to our house and against the fence separating us from our neighbor. The bid was fast and very fair. Levi and his crew arrived on our scheduled appointment on time and all with very professional and polite attitudes. They treated my property with respect. Watching the 3 work together was a real treat. Levi ensured that the job wasn't completed until I was satisfied. A firm handshake completed the day. I will be hiring them for all future tree work.

Darrel Emel's Tree Service has always done a great job. This is our second tree to be cut down and the stump ground out. They have always done a really good job - cleaned up very well - and the tree hasn't grown back! They definitely know what they are doing!! It's definitely worth the cost to have this done very professionally - and they take every precaution to protect our property while they are doing this work. They are worth paying to have this done!
