About Kirkland Tree Service
Your trusted partners in professional tree care for over 15 years
Our Story & Heritage
Founded in 2008, Kirkland Tree Service began as a family-owned business with a simple mission: provide honest, professional tree care that homeowners can trust. What started as a small operation with basic equipment has grown into the region's most respected tree service company, serving hundreds of satisfied customers throughout Kirkland and the greater Seattle area.
Our founder recognized that the Pacific Northwest's unique climate and diverse tree species required specialized knowledge and approaches. Rather than offering generic services, we invested heavily in education, certification, and equipment specifically designed for our regional conditions. This commitment to excellence has been the cornerstone of our growth and reputation, allowing us to offer comprehensive services from professional tree trimming and pruning to complex removals.
Over the years, we've weathered major storms, helped communities recover from natural disasters, and watched neighborhoods transform as we've cared for their urban forest. Each project has taught us something new, reinforcing our belief that tree care is both an art and a science that requires continuous learning and adaptation.
Today, Kirkland Tree Service stands as a testament to what dedication, expertise, and genuine care for customers can achieve. We're proud to be a local business that has grown through word-of-mouth recommendations and repeat customers who trust us with their most valuable assets – their homes and properties. Contact us today to experience the difference that comes from working with true professionals.

Education is another cornerstone of our community involvement. We conduct workshops on proper tree care, host annual tree planting events, and provide resources to help homeowners make informed decisions about their landscape investments. Knowledge sharing strengthens our entire community's urban forest.
Emergency response has always been a priority for us. During major storms or natural disasters, we coordinate with local authorities and emergency services to clear roads, restore power line access, and help neighbors recover quickly. Our 24/7 emergency availability reflects our commitment to community safety and resilience.
