Like all living things, trees have a natural lifespan. Sometimes that lifespan can be cut short when natural events damage a tree so severely that complete removal is the only option. Tree trimming is done to improve the health of trees or to improve your property's image. It also prolongs their useful life by removing undesirable branches whether they are dead, weakened, diseased or insect-infested.
Pruning is a very common tree maintenance procedure but it is also the most misunderstood. Since each cut has the potential to change the growth of the tree, no branch should be removed without a reason. Crown shaping can be done to trees in various ways depending on the circumstances. Trees can be shaped into very definite hard lines or they can be fashioned into an umbrella shape to reduce the size of the crown.

Like all living things, trees have a natural lifespan. Sometimes that lifespan can be cut short when natural events damage a tree so severely that complete removal is the only option. Tree removal is a last option but sometimes it becomes imperative to protect your safety and your property. There are many variables that come into play such as the trees proximity to buildings, fences and power lines.
Professional, fast, friendly, very thorough, did exactly what was asked of them, and cleaned up spotlessly. I will definitely use them for future work. Ryan and his crew showed up early and got right to work trimming large branches hanging over my roof. They were done in about an hour and cleaned off my roof and cleared up the debris in my yard.

They are the best in Salem, hands down. We had some really challenging trees to remove, including one that was parallel to the ground and hanging over our house and fence. Got it down with ease. I will only use this company and if I move I would pay for their travel to come remove any trees I have.

They did a very good job with some tree trimming I needed done. They even took care of some other loose branches above a play area in my yard that I had not contracted for just to make sure it was safe and didn’t charge me extra. They were efficient and cleaned up very well. The price they charged was very reasonable. Good work!

Had these guys out to remove a big cedar in my back yard. They did great. They where on time and got right to work. Very friendly crew and hard working.they wracked up my back yard so well if the wood was not back here you wouldn't know they had been here. I will be using them again to remove 1 more tree. I highly recommend using these guys. Thank you for the great job!

They are safe, efficient, reliable, respectful, and very nice people to deal with.
They just finished taking down a big nasty maple tree for me. Rubin and the crew with him are very hard working people, the mess that this big old ugly maple tree made was beyond imagination while it was still up and then it came down with a bigger mess. These guys did an amazing job on every level they cleaned up every bit of mess it made coming down.
They are amazing, super hard workers!!!
Thank You!!!

We just hired this company to do a job for us, they showed up early and were ready to work exactly when they said they would. They did such a great job, you couldn't tell they had been there, every tree was trimmed up nice and neatly and nothing left on the ground. Their prices were fantastic. Would use them again and highly recommend them for anyone needed tree service. These guys were great!!

The entire team is terrific! After they looked over the huge oak tree they went right to work and you could tell that they had all worked together for some time as no time was wasted. Their man in the tree (who must have been part monkey) wasted no time getting the ropes in place and then their serious work began. Their monkey man seemed to jump from place to place either freeing a load or fastening another piece to come down. I have seen many trees cut down before but never have I seen one that was so well organized. For me and then the neighbors it was like watching poetry in motion and what

As a tree service that serves the Portland Metro area, AK Timber often sends referral's to Ryan and his crew to service customers where AK Timber does not service. We have been working with each other for a number of years now and his crew always receives wonderful praise for their work from customers. Thanks Ryan and crew for making us look good with your repeatedly great service.

I just had three trees removed and some trimming done on another. Ryan and his crew did an excellent job. They arrived on time, worked efficiently and professionally, were very careful to ensure that nothing harmed the fence or my house and they did a great clean-up afterwards. I will be using them again next year and highly recommend them!
