Tree Care in Pescadero: Big Country, Big Trees
Pescadero is working country – a creek-bottom village between the marsh and the forested Butano and Pescadero Creek watersheds, with ranches, farms, and rural homesteads strung along narrow county roads. Tree work here runs bigger than anywhere else we serve: second-growth redwood and Douglas-fir over barns and houses, aging eucalyptus near the marsh, riparian alder and willow along flood-prone creek banks, and oak and tanoak stands hit hard by sudden oak death, which has been working through the Santa Cruz Mountains for two decades. Since the 2020 CZU Lightning Complex burned through the hills south of town, dead and fire-damaged hazard trees have been a fact of life for property owners toward Butano. This is exactly the work our crews are equipped for – large technical removals, skid steer and mastication clearing for acreage, and honest triage of what is dangerous versus what will stand another fifty years.
County Rules and CAL FIRE Country
Pescadero is unincorporated San Mateo County in the Coastal Zone, so the county’s significant tree rules currently apply: removing a tree of roughly 38 inches in circumference (about a 12 inch trunk) requires a county permit, and heritage tree regulations protect certain species beyond that. This is also State Responsibility Area, where CAL FIRE enforces 100 feet of defensible space around structures. Our ISA Certified Arborist confirms the current county requirements for your parcel and prepares permit documentation where needed, and our fire prevention crews build defensible space that passes inspection.
We Come to You
Long response distances are the rural Coastside’s weak point – ours are shorter, because we are based up the coast in Pacifica and work Pescadero, Butano, and the Stage Road corridor regularly. Fallen limbs, blocked driveways, and hazard trees get a 24/7 emergency response. Every estimate includes dump fees and haul-away. Call (650) 355-1277.
