Tigard Tree Removal Services
When we perform tree removals, we handle all the steps from showing up to remove the tree to carrying away the waste. Our goal is to provide you with the highest quality service so you don’t have to worry. While we work quickly, we never compromise safety protocols as we would never put your family in harm’s way. After removal, the fastest way to get rid of the stump is to grind it down as it gives you more options for blending the area into your existing landscape.
Proper Pruning is Vital for Tree Health
Pruning is often overlooked though it should be a regular part of your landscape maintenance. Our tree trimming crews always follow ANSI A300 standards approved by the TCIA and have clear goals of what is to be accomplished before startingThe main reasons for pruning are maintenance and hazard reduction. Maintenance pruning improves the tree’s health and structure while hazard reduction decreases the chance of possible damage by removing branches prone to breaking. Some of the benefits of pruning include:
- Improved health
- Better sun exposure
- Removing dead or diseased portions
- Increased flowering or fruit production
- Improved aesthetics
Improve Your Property with Stump Removal
A stump will take years to degrade on its own all the while attracting ants, termites, and wood-rotting fungus. Does this sound like a good thing to have near your other trees or your wood-framed house?
At General Tree Service in Tigard, we deal with stumps that others leave behind. We understand the risks that stumps pose to your property and deal with them in the best way possible. By hiring us for stump grinding you can remove the eyesore and threat that your stumps present. You can also immediately begin to remediate the area by planting new grass or ornamentals.
Professional Arborist Services
Because of our expertise in the field of tree care, we are qualified to perform tree risk assessments. A tree risk assessment helps home and business owners understand the risks that trees may pose to their property. By scheduling a tree risk assessment, property owners will better understand the health and safety of their trees.
Insect and Disease Control
Before deciding to cut down a diseased tree, call our professionals for a second opinion. Often damaged trees can be saved with selective pruning, fertilization, and disease treatment. If you’re looking to prevent problems, we can help with that too. It is common for tree owners to have their trees treated seasonally to prevent problems down the road.
Plant Healthcare
Ecosystems are complicated and delicate. Treating only trees within an ecosystem overlooks all of the interconnection present. At General Tree Service, we recognized the need for overall plant health in a landscape so we started offering plant health care and landscaping services.Plant health care is the natural next step from tree services. Some of the services we offer for plant health care include:
- Weed control
- Fertilization

What to Expect from Emergency Tree Service
If you are involved in a tree emergency, don’t attempt to fix the problem yourself. Leave it to the professionals. Tree emergencies can be very dangerous, so do not approach, especially if power lines or utilities are involved. Call the utility companies to deal with their services first, then call General Tree Service to ensure your property is safe.
