Thank Goodness these guys were overwhelmingly suggested to me after posting online for tree trimmers. They are by far the best! Very friendly, right on time and did a great job on my big tree!

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…

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…

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…

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…
