Locally owned. Fully insured. ISA-trained arborists committed to safe, science-based tree care for every Boise homeowner.
A local tree care team built on safety, expertise, and respect for both your trees and your property.
Boise Tree Cutting was founded to give Boise homeowners a tree service they can actually count on — one that shows up on time, provides a clear written estimate before any cut is made, and stands behind every job. We are a locally owned and operated company, not a franchise, and every customer deals directly with our team.
Boise is the City of Trees, and that legacy shapes the work. We specialize in the projects Boise properties need most: removing end-of-life elms and ash in the North End and East End, structural pruning of mature maples, sycamores, and ornamentals, stump grinding, and storm cleanup after Treasure Valley ice storms and summer thunderstorms. We also handle defensible space work for properties in the Boise Foothills, Hidden Springs, and Quail Ridge, and we help homeowners across Ada County deal with the rising Emerald Ash Borer threat.
Idaho does not require a state-specific tree service license, which means anyone with a chainsaw can call themselves a "tree guy." We think Boise homeowners deserve more. Our crew includes ISA Certified Arborists, we carry full general liability and workers' compensation insurance, and we follow ANSI A300 pruning standards and ANSI Z133 safety standards on every job.
You get a clear written estimate before any work begins. No surprise fees, no add-ons mid-job. If the scope changes — for example, if we discover internal decay in a Boise elm that changes the rigging plan — we discuss it with you first.
Modern arboriculture is a real science. We follow ISA best practices and ANSI standards — not the outdated "top it and tar it" methods that damage Boise's mature urban forest. Your trees will be healthier when we leave than when we arrived.
We protect your lawn, hardscape, fencing, and surrounding plants. We rake, blow, and haul. When we leave your Boise property, you should barely know we were there — except the tree work is done.
Tree work is one of the most dangerous trades in the country. We never compromise on rigging, PPE, or training to save time. That protects our crew, your Boise property, and your liability exposure.
Boise Tree Cutting carries full general liability insurance and workers' compensation coverage on every crew member. We are registered with the Idaho Contractors Board, and our arborists hold credentials from the International Society of Arboriculture (ISA) — the gold standard for the tree care industry.
Before any tree service touches your Boise property, ask for proof of insurance and ask about ISA certification. A reputable company should be happy to provide both. If a contractor cannot or will not, that is a red flag worth taking seriously — an uninsured tree service can leave you personally liable for property damage or worker injury, which is a particularly bad outcome on the tightly packed lots of the North End or in the wildland interface of the Foothills.
We serve all of Boise and the surrounding Treasure Valley, including Garden City, Eagle, Star, Meridian, Kuna, and Nampa. From the North End and East End to the Bench, Warm Springs, West Boise, Hidden Springs, Quail Ridge, and the Boise Foothills — if you are in Ada County, we are your tree service.
