How it works

Three steps. No runaround.

1

Show us the tree

Call for a free estimate and an honest read on whether it needs to come down now or can wait a season.

2

We take it down safely

The crew shows up when they said they would, rigs and lowers the big wood in tight spots, and keeps your roof and fence out of the story.

3

You get your yard back

We chip, rake, and haul it all off, then walk the yard with you when complete. If something is not right, say so while we are standing there.

Ballpark it yourself

What will it cost? Get a quick range.

Pick the job and check what applies. Tree pricing moves a lot with size, access, and what the tree hangs over, so treat this as an honest Boise ballpark, not a bid.

What we do

The whole job, from first cut to final rake.

One dead limb or a whole storm cleanup. Same crew, same care, same tidy yard when we leave.

Tree Removal

From small ornamentals to the big cottonwoods that tower over half of Boise. We rig and lower in sections in tight yards, and your roof, fence, and garden stay out of it.

Tree after professional pruning with neat, healthy canopy

Tree Trimming & Pruning

Good pruning keeps a tree healthy and keeps it off your roof. We shape, thin, and deadwood, and clear limbs back from gutters and fire-prone brush. High-desert summers are hard on trees here; smart trimming helps them cope.

Residential yard with stump ground below ground level

Stump Grinding

A stump is a tripping hazard that also happens to be ugly. Our grinders take it below grade so you can replant, sod, or pave over the spot, whatever you have planned.

Emergency & Storm Damage

Foothills wind does not make appointments. When it drops a tree on your house, fence, or driveway, or leaves one leaning that direction, call. Urgent jobs go to the front of the line, and the crew will tell you straight when they can be there.

Shrub Trimming & Removal

Junipers gone woody, a hedge swallowing the front window, a shrub crowding the walk. We trim them back into shape, or take the whole thing out so the bed is ready for whatever comes next.

Why local wins

The crew that quotes your tree is the crew that shows up.

Safety is the whole job

Tree work is genuinely dangerous. We check every tree for hazards first, rig and lower the big wood instead of dropping it, and if we cannot do it safely, we do not do it.

Your call gets answered

No 1-800 number, no out-of-state queue. Call or text the job in, and you will get a straight answer on what it takes, from the same local outfit whose crew takes the tree down.

Full cleanup, every job

We haul the debris, rake the work area, and leave the yard clean. No brush pile by the fence for you to deal with in October.

Honest about results

If pruning can save the tree, we say so. If it can safely wait a year, we say that too. Talking you out of work you do not need costs us a job and keeps a neighbor.

Free on-site estimates

Every job starts with a free, no-obligation estimate. We look at the tree in person and review the work before anything is scheduled. Financing options are available if the number lands bigger than the month allows.

Where we work

We handle trees for homes and businesses across the Treasure Valley: Boise, Meridian, Nampa, Eagle, Caldwell, Garden City, Star, and Kuna, plus everything in between. The North End with its old canopy, the Bench, West Boise, Southeast Boise, and up into the Foothills. Not sure about your street? Call and we will tell you on the spot.

That leaning, dead limb over the house is one storm from the roof.

You can see it from the driveway. A dead limb hanging over the shingles. A trunk that leans a little more each year. An old cottonwood or silver elm that sheds something sizable every time the wind comes down off the foothills. You notice it, you try not to think about it, and every season it sits there it gets a little more likely to go. Boise trees have a hard life: high-desert summers bake them, winter ice loads them up, and the wind finishes the argument.

The wrong answer is a chainsaw and a ladder on a Saturday. Tree work is genuinely dangerous, and a tree dropped wrong takes the roof or the truck with it. That is why we rig and lower big sections instead of dropping them, and why every tree gets a hazard check before the first cut.

Boise Tree Boys is a family-owned, second-generation crew: ISA Certified Arborists, licensed, bonded, and insured, with over 40 years of Treasure Valley trees behind them. When you call, you get a straight answer on what the tree needs. We know how the North End's old canopy carries ice, which species on the Bench go hazardous first, and how to bring a tree down in inches of clearance without touching the house.

On price, the honest answer is that it depends. Size, access, and what the tree hangs over move the number more than anything else. The estimate is free either way. Call (208) 902-2295 and we will tell you what we would do, what it would cost, and whether it can safely wait. No obligation.

Good questions

Tree service questions, answered

The things Boise homeowners actually ask before they call.

How much does tree removal cost in Boise?
Tree removal cost depends primarily on tree size, access, and what the tree is growing near. A small ornamental far from structures versus a large cottonwood hanging over the house are very different jobs. Size, access, and proximity all move the price. Estimates are free, so the real answer costs you nothing more than a phone call.
Do you handle emergency and storm-damage removal?
Yes, emergency tree service is part of the job here. Storm damage, fallen trees, anything threatening the house or power lines goes to the front of the line. Wind coming down off the foothills is hard on Treasure Valley trees. Call and the crew will tell you straight when they can get out.
Can you remove a tree close to my house or fence?
Yes, tight spaces are most of the job in Boise's older neighborhoods. Our ISA Certified Arborists rig and lower trees in sections when there is no room to drop them. We have worked in inches of clearance from homes, fences, and outbuildings all over the valley.
How much does stump grinding cost in Boise?
Stump grinding cost varies by stump, depending on diameter, wood hardness, and how close the grinder can get. Bundling it with a removal almost always saves money, so ask for a combined estimate.
Do you offer free estimates?
Yes. Every estimate is free, no pressure, no obligation. Have the crew come take a look in person. If the answer is that the tree is fine, that is what you will hear.
Will you clean up after the job?
Yes, cleanup comes with every job. We chip the branches, haul the wood, and rake and blow the site when complete. If you want the rounds for firewood or the chips for mulch, say so and we will stack them instead.
What areas do you serve in the Treasure Valley?
Boise, Meridian, Nampa, Eagle, Caldwell, Garden City, Star, and Kuna. If you are somewhere else in the Treasure Valley, call anyway. We work a wide radius from our Boise home base, and there is a good chance we can get to you.

Got a tree that worries you?

One call gets you a free estimate from a licensed, insured, family-owned Boise crew. If the tree is already on the house, or about to be, say so. Urgent calls go first.
