Beaverton, OR

At Cascade Tree Works, we provide systematic, low-impact tree removal designed to protect your home, family, and surrounding landscape.

We are proud to serve the residential and commercial property owners of Beaverton, delivering reliable, high-quality tree services that keep our community safe and beautiful.
Originally inhabited by the Atfalati (Tualatin) band of the Kalapuya, the area that would become Beaverton was settled by pioneers in the mid-19th century. The town earned its name from the extensive beaver dams and wetlands that dominated the local landscape, creating highly fertile soil that supported a thriving agricultural economy. By the early 20th century, Beaverton had evolved into a bustling trade center, complete with a railroad connection that linked the Tualatin Valley directly to Portland.
As the decades progressed, Beaverton transitioned from a quiet farming community into a major engine of Oregon’s high-tech “Silicon Forest.” The post-World War II era brought rapid suburban expansion, leading to the development of classic residential neighborhoods like Cedar Hills, Raleigh Hills, and Sexton Mountain. Today, the city is a dynamic multicultural hub, home to global corporate headquarters, a thriving downtown historic district, and a diverse population that enriches the local culture.
The visual character of Beaverton is defined by this blend of suburban comfort, high-tech innovation, and natural beauty. Towering stands of mature Douglas firs and Western red cedars rise above residential streets, providing a dramatic backdrop to the city’s modern developments. However, maintaining this extensive urban canopy requires ongoing care and vigilance, particularly as older trees planted during the mid-century housing boom reach the end of their natural lifespans.
Beaverton is a vibrant community nestled in the heart of the Tualatin Valley, known for its exceptional park system, diverse culinary scene, and thriving tech sector. The city beautifully balances its rapid economic growth with a deep commitment to preserving natural spaces and maintaining a healthy, robust urban canopy. From the sprawling wetlands of local nature parks to the bustling activity of our historic downtown, Beaverton offers a rich quality of life for residents and visitors alike.
As we work throughout the area, we are constantly reminded of what makes this city so special. Whether we are clearing storm debris near a residential neighborhood or helping a local business maintain its curb appeal, we are proud to contribute to the safety and beauty of this unique region.

Below are common questions:
Yes, in many cases. The City of Beaverton regulates the removal of trees, especially those designated as ‘Significant Trees’ or those located within natural resource areas, landscape buffers, or commercial properties. Homeowners may need to submit an application to the City of Beaverton Community Development department before cutting down a tree. Our team is highly familiar with local tree preservation ordinances and can help you navigate the permitting process to ensure full compliance.
The cost of tree removal in Beaverton varies widely depending on several factors, including the tree’s height, diameter, species, and proximity to structures or utility lines. A small tree in an open yard may cost a few hundred dollars, while a massive, 100-foot Douglas fir requiring complex rigging or crane assistance can cost several thousand. We provide free, transparent, and itemized on-site estimates so you know exactly what to expect before any work begins.
If a tree or large branch falls onto active power lines, you should never attempt to clear it yourself. This is an extremely dangerous situation. Your first step should be to contact Portland General Electric (PGE) immediately to report the hazard. Once PGE has de-energized the lines and cleared the immediate electrical hazard, a professional tree removal service like Cascade Tree Works can safely dismantle and haul away the remaining tree debris.
Absolutely. Our crew specializes in high-risk, tight-space tree removal. We utilize advanced rigging systems, including heavy-duty ropes, blocks, and friction devices, to lower branches and trunk sections individually in a highly controlled manner. This ensures that even a 60-foot conifer situated inches from a fence, patio, or roofline can be dismantled safely without causing any damage to your surrounding property or your neighbor’s home.
Generally, stump grinding is treated as an additional, separate service. Removing the above-ground portion of the tree and grinding the stump require entirely different specialized machinery. During our initial consultation, we will ask if you would like the stump removed. We can include stump grinding as a separate line item in your estimate, allowing you to decide whether to budget for it immediately or address it at a later date.
I had a big old tree in my backyard that was more of a danger than anything recently. It was leaning dangerously close to the home after a storm so I called this tree service. Right from the beginning they were really responsive and easy to work with. They were there to check out the situation and described the tree removal process in a way that made sense and without trying to upsell unneeded services. The crew arrived on time on the day of the project and were very efficient. Most of all I liked that they were careful with my property and did not destroy the plants and structures near the tree when they removed it. They did the tree stump removal and left the yard clean and ready to use again. Also very helpful in advising me on future maintenance like tree cutting and pruning to avoid problems like this again. Service was smooth and professional and would be happy to use them again if I had need.
