Great people' they do phenomenal work! greatly exceeded my expectations.
Easily the best tree trimming and removal experience we’ve ever had at our property, and we’ve had plenty. Easy communication, quick to answer calls and texts and gave clear information on what should be done and why. Price was the lower than other companies who quoted the same work, they showed up on time and…
Great service. Joe and his team removed my fence and a bunch of trees that were growing between the chain links. They made quick work of it. Very affordable price!
The guys took down 2 trees, one requiring a "cherry picker". They arrived on-time on the scheduled day and finished taking down the trees with stump removal in just short of 1 1/2 hours. They even cut some of the tree trunks up into sizes which I can use for woodturning. They completely cleaned up. There was zero…
Very professional- great communication, awesome job, cleanup was well beyond what I expected, showed concern for not damaging my lawn. Could not be more satisfied!
The best around. They show when they say they will, they are super responsive and come with an entire crew and knock out your job quick along with cleaning up every last piece of brush. I could not recommend them enough!
I was Extremely impressed with their efficiency, coordination, communication, quality of work, fair prices, and professional service. I couldn’t believe how fast they were able to complete the job and how clean they left the surrounding areas. Strongly recommended. Thank you for the amazing job!!
Highly recommended. They’re busy, but nice we were able to get on their busy schedule it was worth the wait. Pricing was fair and the team were all professional and quick. Cleaned up the space very well at the end. I would recommend them without hesitation.
These guys are great! We had 3 trees taken down in our backyard. They cleared out the debris, found the stumps and cleaned up in record time! Joe and his crew were very professional. Would highly recommend Busy Beaver!
Joe and his team were great. I had the pleasure of working with Troy on our yard cleanup project/tree stumps removal and very pleased with the results. We will definitely use them in the future and highly recommend them!
We had Joe and his crew come out to my mom‘s house to remove 7 dead trees. Process was perfect. Our yard looked better than it did before they got there. They did everything in a professional manner. The crew worked hard and was well mannered. They even helped my mom bring in her groceries. Thank you Joe and crew.
100% Use this company for all your tree needs. I have had these guys out to my property twice to remove dead, damaged, and precarious trees. They may tell you they aren't the absolute cheapest option but of all the companies I've ever gotten quotes from, they are by a wide margin. They have never caused any damage…
My husband and I could not have been more impressed with our tree removal service. The crew was so efficient. They completely cleaned up after themselves and were very professional They used state of the art equipment which helped in keeping our yard intact. This will be the tree service I recommend to everyone who is looking for tree removal.
Very professional and extremely affordable. Busy Beaver did a fantastic job for us. I would highly recommend them. From start to finish they were great. Very impressed with their services. The clean up was nothing short of perfect!

And boy what a show … we had a mess with dead trees horribly overgrown fence line and couldn’t Honestly, tell you how many trees they removed ( @ minimum 15) not small either ( white pine at lest 60’ tall). and pruned …the clean…
I wish all businesses had this level of integrity and professionalism! Joe and his team were kind, knowledgeable, and made the process of removing 12 trees stress free. Finally can see the sunset from my house and couldn’t be happier =)
Most of the trees on our corner lot haven't been trimmed since they were planted 26 years ago. So we decided to give them the attention they deserved. But I doubt we could've hired a better crew than Busy Beaver Tree Care to do it. With minimal discussion beforehand, I watched them fan out across the lot like they…
These guys did a great job clearing out our tree line!
This crew is amazing, especially for the prices they charge. By far the best deal in the area.
Busy Beaver Tree Care performed well above my expectations! Our project consisted of removing over 30 tall pines, removal of two root balls (one being an estimate of 5k#), and grinding of some stumps. It's as if they were never here, the trees simply disappeared. The care they take to ensure minimal damage to the…
They were incredible! They removed 24 trees that were 40-50 feet tall! They had the equipment to handle this job and a crew to get it all done in one day. The workers were great! They were incredibly efficient! Everyone was focused and did their job well. They cleaned up everything. We were extremely pleased…

We had two really tall trees that needed to be taken down with a crane. Joe and his crew were on time , friendly , and professional.They were a hard working crew on this sweltering hot day.

Very nice and sincere! Work was extremely excellent!
Great team to have take care of your needs. They treated my yard like it was their own. Polite, prompt, professional and courteous. Asked me several times during the process if I liked what I was seeing. If there's a next time, they'll be my first call.
Fantastic team of people! Really kind/professional and willing to answer all questions. I honestly feel like we scammed them the price was so good for the quality of service we received! They cleaned up and removed several trees, even going out of their way to grind up a few stumps that already existed on the…
The crew and equipment got started at 8am and finished up at 4pm. 11 medium to large elms cut down, removed and all cleaned up. They performed efficiently and safely and we were impressed by how professional they were. We're definitely going to use them again. Great value.

Wow! These guys are good, quick and fast but still they know what they're doing. Will be using them again. Easy to work with.
We were pretty unhappy about having to take out one Ash and four weak flowering Pear trees. Busy Beaver came and made quick work of it, and did a great job including grinding and cleanup. Their quote was very fair, and everyone was professional and efficient. They were great. We highly recommend them.
We have used Busy Beaver for a couple of jobs at our home. Joe and his crew are professional, do an amazing job - all at a reasonable price. I would highly recommend!
This is why you use the professionals. Everything gets done right. Busy Beaver Tree Service did a phenomenal job. They arrived early, were fast and efficient, careful not to damage any property, offered to remove an old basketball hoop at no extra charge AND we're patient enough with me to cut one tree down to a…
