We had a dead tree in our yard that we were worried about. Daniel came and looked at it, told us about what to watch for with the rest of the trees in our yard. He came back the next day and cut it down for us. Also - great communication!

This team was phenomenal and I would recommend them to anyone who needs tree work done. They were not only extremely knowledgeable but also gave realistic expectations on future issues that could arise with trees on my property. The main reason I called them was that I have followed their work for over a year on social media and could see the precision they used to not only drop massive trees near homes but also trimming to prepare homes for future storms. Everyone I dealt with was professional and knowledgeable, and it was like watching a choreographed dance when John, Kyle and Val went to work. They were efficient with their time and it was a minimal impact to us while they worked on trees that were at least 70 feet tall! Daniel was awesome to deal with and walked the property keying in on trees I had looked at previously and his advisement was spot on based on not just location of the tree but the current health of it as well. They will be my "tree guys" for good based on the way this project went. They even staged their work over the days so that my kids could play in the brush fort they made but it didn't slow them down one bit. Almost anyone can run a chainsaw but knowing how to use it and the other tools of the trade takes experience knowledge and care and it showed. It's hard to keep count how many trees we had to take down but we were somewhere around 15 trees total with most being near the home and well over 50 feet tall! My property has never looked this open and well lit here in the woods tucked away in Blythewood.
