About Black Diamond Tree Service

When a low-pressure system comes straight up the Strait of Juan de Fuca, Port Angeles gets the wind before it gets the water, and it's the wind that keeps Black Diamond's crew busy — big-leaf maples and old Douglas firs going over onto driveways and carports along the streets closest to the water downtown. The same crew that drops a hazard limb in July straps a blade to the truck in the rare week Port Angeles gets snow instead of rain, since a fallen branch and a foot of wet snow block a driveway the same way. Port Angeles doesn't hold snow long — the Olympics wring most of the moisture out of storms before they reach town — but when a system does drop white instead of gray, it tends to arrive heavy and wet, exactly the kind that snaps limbs and buries a walkway at once. Clearing both in the same visit means a homeowner isn't choosing between calling a tree crew and calling a plow. By late afternoon the driveway's open and the wood from what came down is already stacked at the curb, ready for the next dry stretch to split it.
