Service Area · Edmonds & Mukilteo, WA
Edmonds and Mukilteo combine mature conifers, established neighborhoods, bluff-side properties, and Puget Sound views. We work on Douglas fir, Western red cedar, Pacific madrone, bigleaf maple, ornamentals, and other mature landscape trees throughout both cities.
Tree removal and pruning can be more complex near steep slopes, landslide-hazard areas, shoreline zones, and bluff edges. Both cities have their own tree and critical-area requirements, so we check the property and applicable rules before work begins.
Tree care for bluff-side properties, mature neighborhoods, Puget Sound views, and established landscapes.

View pruning and selective thinning for Sound-facing properties where maintaining views and healthy canopy both matter.
03
Arborist consultations and tree risk assessments for wind-exposed conifers, mature trees, and bluff-top properties.
04
Tree removal and permit assistance for properties near steep slopes, shoreline areas, landslide hazards, and other protected sites.
05
Hedge trimming and ornamental pruning for privacy screening, formal landscapes, and established residential properties.
Edmonds Tree Rules
many removals on improved single-family lots are exempt, but critical areas, buffers, development sites, and other regulated properties can require review or a permit.
Mukilteo Tree Rules
outside protected areas, removal generally requires a permit for evergreens 8" DBH or larger and deciduous trees 12" DBH or larger.
Critical Areas & Steep Slopes
wetlands, stream buffers, steep slopes, and native growth protection areas can trigger additional review in both cities.
Puget Sound Shoreline
shoreline properties can face additional restrictions; in Mukilteo, removal of trees over 24" diameter within the 200-foot shoreline zone is especially limited.
THE CODE
Tree-removal rules differ between the two cities, with the biggest added restrictions around steep slopes, critical areas, and shoreline properties. We check the parcel and applicable requirements before work begins.
