Common Tree Removal Scenarios
A dead tree is one that has lost its living tissue and structural strength, and on a Tigard property it’s a fall risk as it decays and spreads pests.
A dead tree near a home can cause damage if it fails in a storm.
Tigard generally doesn’t require a permit to remove residential trees, so dead-tree removal is usually straightforward unless the tree is a heritage or sensitive-lands tree — which Monkeyman’s checks first.
An overgrown tree is a healthy tree that has outgrown its space, threatening structures near Fanno Creek and beyond.
The owner is responsible for safe removal when a tree endangers property.
Monkeyman’s handles overgrown removals and checks whether the tree falls under any regulated category before any work.
A diseased tree carries an infection that weakens it from within. The Fanno Creek corridor’s humidity fosters root rot, heart rot, and Verticillium wilt.
These infections are hard to detect early and can spread.
Monkeyman’s ISA Certified Arborists diagnose, contain spread, and remove trees that can’t be saved.
A storm-damaged tree has been cracked, split, or uprooted by wind, ice, or debris. Storm damage is common in Tigard.
More than 50% crown loss usually means removal, though resilient trees often survive.
Monkeyman’s evaluates whether a tree can recover before recommending removal.
Emergency tree removal is the 24/7 response needed when a tree has fallen, or threatens to, onto a home, vehicle, or power line.
For hazardous removals, Monkeyman’s uses crane support through Smith Crane.
When a tree falls on your Tigard property, we respond day or night.
View clearing is the selective removal or pruning of trees that block a scenic sightline. Some elevated Tigard properties (such as Bull Mountain) have views worth opening.
The work opens the sightline while respecting any sensitive-lands rules.
Monkeyman’s selectively clears blocking trees while preserving your canopy.
Lot clearing is the systematic removal of trees and brush to prepare a site for building. Tigard development must account for sensitive-lands and development-required trees.
Sectional removal and heavy equipment are used as needed.
Monkeyman’s clears residential and commercial lots and checks regulated-tree status first.

During your estimate, we will evaluate your trees and discuss the scope of work – whether that involves removal, pruning, or plant healthcare. We’ll assess the condition of your tree(s), surrounding terrain, accessibility, and any equipment that may be required to safely complete your project.
We will then provide a detailed estimate outlining the recommended services and total cost. Our team is always available to answer questions, provide clarification, and help you fully understand your proposal so you can make an informed decision about how to proceed.
Yes. We are fully licensed, bonded, and insured for both residential and commercial tree work.
We are happy to provide a Certificate of Insurance (COI) upon request. You may also verify our licensing through the Oregon Construction Contractors Board (CCB) by searching our license number: #206934.
The cost of a tree removal can vary based on several factors, including the size and species of the tree, its condition, location, and accessibility. We also consider what’s surrounding the tree – such as structures, landscaping, or utilities – that may require protection and more advanced rigging techniques or specialized equipment.
Because every project is unique, we perform on-site inspections before providing an estimate. This allows us to deliver pricing that is accurate, transparent, and tailored to the specific scope of work.
An 80ft tree sandwiched between two homes on a cliff side containing 18 bees nests is going to cost a bit more than a 10ft apple tree in the middle of a field (and no bee nests).
The time it takes to remove a tree depends on many of the same factors that influence cost, including the size and species of the tree, its condition, location, and accessibility.
Many smaller or more straightforward removals can be completed in can be removed, chipped, and hauled away in 3-6 hours, while larger or more complex removals may take a day or two.
Either way, we’ll provide you with a clear timeframe for your specific project so you know what to expect before work begins.

Great Crew, and I certainly recommend Monkeyman's Tree Service!Posted on C BachmanTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. The crew were professional and did a great job cutting the dead limbs off our plum tree and trimmed out overgrown apple tree.Posted on Connie BaileyTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. They arrived in time and the work was more than I expectedPosted on Ken CuddTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Crew 4 showed up on time. Nelson who ran the crew was very knowledgeable and as soon as he saw the widow maker in the tree he said “let’s go get that”. The whole crew was on all the limbing and clean up. They also cut a large branch that cracked under the weight of numerous apples this year. They finished exactly when they estimated they would. I highly recommend them and will use them again.Posted on Mary PariettiTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Monkeyman’s tree service was fantastic!

We had a tall black walnut removed from a difficult location; a rather technical job in narrow spaces. They had to work around two greenhouses and garage, not a single scratch on any part of our property. Nelson and his crew were fantastic, careful and REALLY strong! Clean up was immaculate. All the interactions with your company (scheduling and estimates etc) were prompt, professional and confident. We're really happy, highly recommend.
