Headwaters Tree Service

About Us

My name is Willis Nielsen and I am the owner and operator of Headwaters Tree Service LLC, a licensed, bonded, and insured tree service based in Winthrop WA. With 15+ years of experience in the industry, I offer a broad spectrum of services related to trees. 

I was born and raised in north central Washington, and spent my childhood and younger years living in Stehekin, at the remote far end of Lake Chelan. Growing up in the wilds of the rugged north cascades, hard work was simply a part of everyday life. I developed a strong work ethic, learned how to safely use a power saw and work around heavy equipment at a young age. This upbringing absolutely laid the foundation of what Headwaters Tree Service LLC is today.

I now call the Methow valley home, having migrated “over the hill” from Stehekin. I thoroughly enjoy working as an arborist and all aspects of tree service life. I value developing relationships with people and businesses within the community through my work. Tree work is my passion. I provide skilled, honest work, and treat your property like it’s my own.
