Reviews of local pros in Vashon, Washington

Great service - fair prices

He was really fair in to the point and very reasonable for the price I am happy that I hired him it could have been a lot worse thank you

These folks were great to deal with and the work they did was nothing short of amazing.
They did all the excavation for a guest cottage/office we had built in our backyard. They excavated for the foundation and also did ditches for the wiring and plumbing, one of which needed to go all the way down the side of the house, across our front yard, and directly through some really important mature shrubbery out to the street.
Not only did they work very quickly and efficiently, the work they did was as minimally disruptive as I can imagine. The foundation excavation was neat, accurate, and ready to go. The ditch that ran through the front yard shrubbery is hardly noticeable--almost unbelievable, actually. Hardly anything was damaged. Everything went back perfectly to the way it was before they started--little short of miraculous, in my view.
They also did a great little rockery for us that stabilizes a low bank near the new structure. Again, the final product is lovely and, also amazingly, there was almost no disruption whatever to several mature shrubs within a foot or two of where they did the work.
If you're looking for someone who really knows their stuff, who will work quickly and efficiently with the absolute minimum disruption, and who will leave behind a site that is at least as neat and clean and probably a great deal better than they found it, I believe Greentree is who you need.

These two (Phil and Shelby) are nothing short of amazing. I've worked with them, and even Phil's father (Rick) for over 20 years. Amazing people. Hard work. Excellent outcomes.

Greentree are a terrific company. They show up on time, work quickly and effectively and get the job down to my complete satisfaction. I have used them to landscaping, driveways, checking our septic system , installing curtain drains. They are a delight to work with. Highly recommended.

I have used Green tree dozing a number of times for different projects, including excavating work and septic inspections. I would not use anyone else on or off island. Shelby and Phill’s work is superb, efficient, and affordable. They are always very professional and go above and beyond with their standard of quality. I am so grateful I went with Green tree dozing, I would recommend them to all my friends and family

I have been very satisfied with work done by Greentree Dozing! Shelby and Phil are great with creative problem solving for difficult projects and have the expertise to get these done, while also setting our mind at ease. They are responsive, and very customer focused and really listen to what we're looking for, what our constraints are, and work with us to make it happen. I highly recommend them!

Greentree Dozing is the best. Phil and Shelby submitted the lowest bid on a complex new septic system install, had a great relationship with the designer and the County, and did timely work on budget. They also came out quickly to our property to assist with retaining wall repair and have delivered fill and other materials, and have helped on any septic questions post-installation. Terrific people and business to work with.

I can't say enough good stuff about Greentree Dozing!! We've known them for 15 years when they cleared trees, put in our driveway, created a path for our well to be dug, and brought in good soil to cover our entire yard when our house was finished being built. They also created garden beds to go around our house with rockery to terrace some areas. They built a frame to hold wood chips for our play structure to be built on. SO many cedar play chips brought in!!

Over the years they've always been there for a load of gravel or dirt and in a timely fashion at affordable prices. Most recently, Phil, Shelby, and their daughters came to help us on a Saturday afternoon widen our driveway for a trailer delivery. They exceeded our expectations and the project turned out perfectly!! I loved how their daughters pitched in to help too. It had to be built up several feet with multiple loads of dirt, compacted, and then layered with gravel. I'm always amazed at how effortlessly Phil can move a pile of dirt EXACTLY where it needs to go and Shelby can dump a load of dirt or gravel precisely where it needs to be!! The driveway was good and sturdy and held up beautifully during the transport of the trailer. We couldn't have moved in our trailer without them!!

If you have any projects around your property, they are the ones to call!! I know they install septics, do rock work, driveways, site prep for building projects and so much more.
We love working with them and know who we will call for our next project and you should too!! I wish I had more pictures of the amazing work they've done!!

Phil and Shelby came to our rescue the same day we called them, working as a team to diagnose the issue and zeroing in on the problem within an hour. These two are very knowledgeable about septic systems and drain fields and what’s necessary to keeps them operating effectively. Their ability to camera
-scope underground plumbing provided immediate feedback and peace of mind.

Leo, Brandan, Dylan, and Jon did a great job taking down a tree that was damaging our foundation. The whole process was easy and smooth, from getting a quote from Jake to accepting, to scheduling, to the actual tree removal. They cleaned up so well and I appreciated the extra touches of blowing off leaves on the roof. They made quick work of it too!

Precise, careful work, excellent communication

Badazz Crew!

Absolutely the best arborist service in western Washington. Look no further this professional is whom you need.

They were lovely to work with. Very thoughtful and attentive to what I was wanting done. Also very efficient!!

Vitalitree, Jean-Luc in particular, was a very professional team. They responded to my initial call the same day, scheduled time for an estimate on that call, I received the estimate within 24 hours, AND they showed up at the appointed time to do the work with skill and efficiency which I and my neighbors appreciated. It was a relief and a pleasure to work with such a responsive and professional company, I highly recommend them individually and their services. Thank you Jean-Luc.

I highly recommend Vitalitree Vashon after working with Jean-Luc on an alder removal project this fall. Jean-Luc knows his trees, communicates well, and was extremely careful in his work. The trees he was working on were surrounding our house. He took every step to ensure safety of the structure, even keeping an eye out for our landscape plants. Thanks, Jean-Luc. Our family will be sleeping a lot more soundly come the next wind storm.

Seattle & Vashon Arborists (Vitaltree LLC) just did a clean up job for my neighbors who had a tree fall into their back yard. They appeared to do a good job, but showered debris all over my brand new truck that was parked across the street during the shredding process. I was home, so they could have asked me to move it for safety, or they could have set up a barricade to protect it, but they did absolutely nothing. Their reckless disregard for other people's property left scratches so deep that they cannot be polished out (see photo). It makes no difference if someone does a great job with tree removal and shredding if they damage nearby property and fail to clean up after themselves. This is unacceptable!

Jake and his crew removed some limbs encroaching on our incoming utility lines and other limbs overhanging our roof in addition to pruning several trees in a way that enhances their appearance while likely improving their health. Finally, they removed a tree that impinged on the incoming water meter including a tight tolerance stump grind. After the pruning and tree removal, they cleaned everything up. To cap it all off they were very friendly and easy to work with. I highly recommend them.

Jean-Luc, Brendan, and team are excellent - they're work is very fairly priced (keeping in mind, tree removal can be expensive), the team is incredibly knowledgeable, only removes trees when truly necessary, and works incredibly fast.

Vitalitree is strongly recommended.

Expert knowledge. Really great crew. Good communication. Job well done, including leaving site in pristine condition. Highly recommended.
