Our love of all things trees is what got us into the arborist business, but we can't save them all. Sometimes a tree has got to go. From technical pruning to hazard removals and more, we have your tree needs covered. In urban settings, trees sometimes require a little help in matters of shape, safety, and strength.

Thinning increases forest accessibility, promotes individual tree health, and it can mitigate the risk of wildland fire and resultant property damage. Tyler and Jen Quintano are the backbone of Sand Creek Tree Service. Over the last decade, they've watched their business grow alongside the community and trees of North Idaho, ever grateful to call Sandpoint home.
Services
Tyler and Jen Quintano teamed up in the trees in 2010 and have steadily built a thriving business. Along the way, they got married, welcomed a daughter, and made North Idaho their home. Along the way, they've enjoyed the help of hardworking employees and the praise of appreciative clients. Along the way, they've sweat a lot and smiled a lot and learned a great deal.
Tree removal is often a hazardous endeavor, especially in neighborhood settings. Structures, fences, landscaping, and other trees must be avoided. It's better to have a highly trained arborist remove a tree in a controlled manner than have that dead, rotting or leaning tree come down on its own. Sand Creek Tree Service specializes in removing hazard trees in confined settings.
Thinning increases forest accessibility and is aesthetically pleasing-creating the "parked out" effect. It also promotes individual tree health by reducing competition for nutrients and light. And thinning a forest can mitigate the risk of wildland fire and resultant property damage. There's a term for the impenetrable tree stands common in North Idaho: "dog hair."
Often, clients would like a quote over the phone or via email. Or they want to know our hourly or daily rate. Unfortunately, tree work is complex. Offering an estimate on the phone would make all our lives easier, but it wouldn't be an accurate assessment of the job at hand. What obstacles might keep us from completing the work?
As arborists, our work provides infinite variety. One day, we may be pruning delicate fruit trees, and the next we might be removing a 100-year-old Douglas fir tucked into a tight alley. Some days, we have to lean heavily on our physical stamina, whereas other jobs might rely on hydraulics and torque.

I contacted Travis about their side service Sand Creek Slabs. They had a large selection of wood slabs from a variety of species. He even had a 53" wide cedar cookie that was prefect for my project. I would highly recommend them if you live in the inland northwest, and I plan to contact them again for future projects. My only complaint is that their location is 3 hours away from me, but it was well worth the drive.

Sand Creek Tree Service has been trimming the trees around my old Sandpoint home for five years and also has removed trees that could not be saved. Jen and Tyler are infallibly responsive, cheerful, hard-working and reliable, managing to simultaneously provide excellent service and be fun to have around.They are excellent communicators. I have referred them to friends who report the same.
Like every skilled business around town these days, SCTS is overwhelmed by requests from customers old and new these days, but when they give me the date they will show up, I know they will show up. Sure, I sometimes

Nice to be busy and booked out! Also would be nice to take the time to seriously communicate so those of that can not get your expert and appreciated services are made to feel like it’s (my) fault! Then he said; “Have a nice day”!

This company is just a great find. They took down four very large, tall, dead trees on my property. They chipped all the branches, cut the very large logs into manageable chunks for firewood and left the property cleaned. Thank you so much Tyler and Jen. Your company and you were a spot-on recommendation.

I can count on one hand the number of times I've left online reviews but this is a worthy occasion. I can't say enough positive things about the team at Sand Creek Tree Service. I had a massive Douglas fir tree tangled up in power lines behind my home that needed to come down. Jen and her team were professional, highly responsive, so kind and so reasonably priced. They went above and beyond to get the job done quickly and cleanly, somehow even in the midst of a chaotic fire season. I was so impressed from start to finish with my experience with them. There's at least one more massive tree that
