Common Tree Removal Scenarios
Dead Tree Removal
A dead tree is one that has lost its living tissue and structural strength, and on a Tualatin property it’s a hazard as it decays and spreads pests.
A dead tree near a home can cause damage if it fails in a storm.
Because Tualatin regulates private trees 8 inches DBH and larger, removal of a sizeable dead tree may require approval — which Monkeyman’s handles.
An overgrown tree is a healthy tree that has outgrown its space, threatening structures on Tualatin’s riverside and suburban lots.
The owner is responsible for safe removal when a tree endangers property.
Monkeyman’s verifies whether the 8″ DBH rule applies before any overgrown removal and recommends pruning where it works.
A diseased tree carries an infection that weakens it from within. Tualatin River 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, secure any needed approval, 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 Tualatin.
More than 50% crown loss usually means removal, though resilient trees often survive.
Monkeyman’s evaluates whether a tree can recover before recommending removal and manages approvals for those that must come down.
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 Tualatin property, we respond day or night.
View clearing is the selective removal or pruning of trees that block a scenic sightline. Some Tualatin properties near the river or on higher ground have views worth opening.
The work preserves the trees you want to keep.
Monkeyman’s selectively clears blocking trees while protecting your landscape and checking the 8″ DBH rule.
Lot clearing is the systematic removal of trees and brush to prepare a site for building. Tualatin development must account for the city’s tree regulations.
Sectional removal and heavy equipment are used as needed.
Monkeyman’s clears residential and commercial lots and manages approvals for regulated trees.

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.

Monkeyman's Tree Service was great. The arborist, Patrick, was knowledgeable, the quote was fair, and the 4 young men who performed the work were personable and did a great job. We had 1 tree pruned away from our house and 4 other trees cleaned of dead wood. They chipped all of the debris and cleaned up very well. We love our trees and were worried about having someone cutting on them. We didn't need to worry and would use their service again.
