Poulsbo is an incorporated city on Liberty Bay in north Kitsap County. It has been recognized as a Tree City USA since 1997 and has its own tree cutting and clearing regulations. For property owners, that means two things: the trees around your home are part of what makes the city what it is, and it’s worth knowing the city’s rules before large-scale cutting begins.

The City of Poulsbo regulates tree cutting and clearing through its municipal code, and some work requires a city permit, particularly larger clearing and development-related cutting. Routine maintenance and dead or dying trees are treated differently from clearing, but the details matter and can change.
Tree-removal requirements can vary based on the property, the jurisdiction and the circumstances. Before removing trees, and especially before clearing several trees or working near Liberty Bay’s shoreline, check the City of Poulsbo’s current requirements. We can talk through the tree work itself during your estimate, but we don’t provide permitting or legal advice.
Dead, damaged, leaning or unwanted trees, including trees taken down in sections close to homes and fences.
Dead wood out, roof and driveway clearance, and thinning that keeps healthy trees on your property.
Stumps ground below the surface so the area can be leveled, seeded or planted.
A tree down on a house, car or driveway, or one that looks ready to fail. Call (360) 590-8771.
In a city that values its tree canopy, it makes sense to start with the least drastic option. Many problems, such as dead limbs over a roof, branches rubbing the house or a crown that’s grown too dense, can be solved with careful trimming and pruning rather than removal.
When a tree is dead, badly decayed, split or unstable, tree removal is the safer path. We’ll tell you which we think applies, and why.
Whether it needs deadwood removed, limbs shortened or removal, we’ll look at the tree and what’s around it before recommending anything.
Broken tops and hanging limbs after wind or heavy snow. Hanging limbs still in the canopy are often more dangerous than what’s already fallen.
Stump grinding takes old stumps below the surface so you can reclaim the space.
Making room for an addition, shop or driveway. Check the city’s clearing rules early in your planning.
Wind, heavy wet snow and long wet stretches are the most common reasons trees and limbs come down. Damage isn’t always obvious right away. After a storm, look over the trees nearest your house, driveway and power lines from a safe distance for:
If something looks ready to fall, call (360) 590-8771. Emergency tree service is available 24/7.
Move vehicles and outdoor furniture away from the trees, and keep kids and pets inside while work is underway. Let us know ahead of time about septic components, irrigation or anything buried near the tree, and about gates, slopes and soft ground.
Trees near structures come down in sections, and we’ll agree up front on what happens to the wood, brush and stump. If a tree is touching or near power lines, contact your electric utility first; they may need to be involved before work begins.
