What Tree & Brush Removal Involves
We clear blackberry, overgrown shrubs and small trees from fence lines and yards so a new fence can go in straight, across Portland, Happy Valley, Oregon City and surrounding communities.
In the Portland area, a fence line left alone for a few years disappears. Blackberry, ivy and volunteer trees grow fast in our mild, wet climate, and they grow right into and through fences. Vines pull boards loose, roots push posts out of line and trapped moisture rots the wood. Brush removal along the line is often the first step before a fence can be repaired or replaced.
We cut back and clear brush, vines and small trees, dig out stumps and root balls where a new post or fence line needs to go, and haul the debris away. Blackberry roots resprout if they're left in the ground, so we dig out the crowns along the fence line rather than just mowing them down. The result is a clear, open line we can build on.
We're fence builders, not arborists. Our tree removal work is for small trees and brush. Large trees, trees near power lines or the house, and anything that needs climbing or rigging should be handled by a certified arborist, and we'll tell you if your job is one of those. Tree removal rules also differ from city to city across the metro, so we check yours before cutting anything bigger than brush.

What Affects the Cost of Tree & Brush Removal
A light trim and a fence line buried in blackberry are very different jobs. These are the factors.
How dense it is
Thick, old blackberry and ivy take far longer than light brush.
Length of the line
More feet of fence line means more clearing.
Tree size and number
Each small tree adds cutting, stump and root work.
Roots and stumps
Digging out roots where posts will go is slow, careful work.
Access
Slopes and tight side yards slow loading and hauling.
Debris volume
More brush and wood means more loads hauled away.
