Meet the Team
Tree Masters has been serving the Portland Metro area for over 40 years, starting with an apprenticeship in Marin County before relocating to the Pacific Northwest in 1980. As an ISA Certified Arborist (PN-8913A), I have personally cared for some of the largest and most historic trees in the region, from the West Hills to neighborhoods like Sellwood and Laurelhurst. Our licensed and bonded team handles everything from routine pruning and fruit tree shaping to hazardous removals and storm damage restoration. We take pride in meticulous cleanup and preserving the surrounding landscape. Whether it's cabling a mature oak or managing disease in a Japanese maple, our goal is to keep Portland's urban canopy healthy for generations. It has been a privilege to work with homeowners across the area, and I still enjoy revisiting trees I trimmed years ago to see them thriving.
Question Answers
How do you handle tree damage restoration after a storm in Portland?
After a storm, we prioritize safety and quick response. Our team assesses the tree for stability, removes hazardous limbs or fallen trunks, and cleans up the debris thoroughly. We also inspect surrounding trees for hidden damage or disease that could cause future issues. For Portland homeowners, we pay special attention to root systems and soil compaction near structures, especially in neighborhoods like the West Hills where mature trees are common.
What is involved in tree cabling or bracing, and when is it needed?
Cabling and bracing are used to support weak or split tree structures, often in older trees with large canopies. We install flexible steel cables or rigid braces to reduce stress on vulnerable branches or trunks. This is common for heritage trees in Portland, like those in Irvington or Laurelhurst, where preservation is preferred over removal. We always assess the tree's overall health first to ensure it's a viable option.
Can tree roots cause foundation seepage or groundwater intrusion problems in Portland?
Yes, large roots from trees like maples and oaks can sometimes grow into drainage pipes or create soil voids near foundations, contributing to water seepage. While we don't handle water damage restoration directly, we often work alongside restoration teams to safely remove trees or prune roots that are compromising your home's drainage. We recommend an inspection if you notice foundation cracks or damp basements, especially in areas like the Pearl District or near the Willamette River.
