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.

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.

The neighbors trees were suffocating my privacy hedge of arbor vitae, which are crucial in the winter when all their trees drop their leaves. The Monkeyman’s crew did an excellent job pruning these back while maintaining the privacy screen and shade we do get from them in summer. They were friendly and efficient and cleaned up well. 10/10 would use again!Posted on Google![]()

Really really happy with the work this team did on removal of 2 overgrown fruit trees and some tricky pruning on a larger branch of our very tall Cherry Tree. They were super responsive and very organized- plus extremely nice and knowledgable at a decent price! Will definitely use this team in the future!Posted on Google![]()

Have had experience with multiple Portland area tree services (unfortunately) and Monkeyman's is the one I'm sticking with from now on: Locally owned, experienced & knowledgeable arborist, friendly crew, delivered exactly as promised, clear communication, no BS sales pitches.
