Has crew out today for clean up after previous storms & they had to take out a tree, etc. Took them about 5 hours. Excellent hard working crew! I definitely would recommend
They did great work, I want to give them a 5 but I can't. I used their service because they came recommended by my village. They even squeezed me in during a busy storm season. I had an issue receiving a form required and the owner hand delivered the form to my front door.
.Fourth time we have hired them to remove several large old trees in difficult places and grind out a few stumps. They are professional, easy to work with, friendly, and cleaned up everything meticulously and were very reasonable cost. Highly recommended, wouldn't hire anyone else for tree removal.
Brian and Boris and the crew can't thank you enough on the tree removal after the Flossmoor tornado damage on 8/12. The crane service was absolute precision and perfection in such a tight space. Amazing! We have more to do still, and will be hiring you for all our tree service needs in the future as well. Great job!!
I had a really good experience working with Brian and his team. I had a big tree that had to be removed due to storm damage. I had a concern about damage to the plants and foliage around the tree but Brian assured me there would be no damage as they would be using a crane to bring down the cut limbs and branches.…

I called them to cut my trees after a storm and they tried to price gauge me for a large tree limb that was already on the ground. The crew was at my house already and I asked the owner could he give me a deal since I have had work done with them before. He told me to hold on while he talks to the crew and the crew packed up and just drove off and the guy never called me back. Very unprofessional go with another tree company. He could have at least said no that’s the price vs being unprofessional. They are just looking to take advantage of customers after a storm. Updated due to miss understanding from crew. Customer Service The owner actually came back out to my home after finding out what the crew did. He apologized for his crews actions and was not aware of them not talking with me the day of the tornados. The owner personally worked with me and sent his crews back out to perform the trimming. His efforts to make things better go’s a long way with me in customer service because it shows he cares. Therefore I have to increase my star rating to 4 stars.

I contacted County Tree Service for a tree removal project and received an estimate promptly. Unfortunately, after that, the experience became very frustrating. I made multiple attempts to schedule the work and was repeatedly told the crew would come within a week or on specific days, but nobody showed up. Each time I followed up, I was given another date and time, yet the work was never performed as scheduled. When the job was finally scheduled, I was later informed that their workers' compensation insurance was expiring and needed to be renewed before the crew could be sent out. While I appreciated being informed of the issue, I was told I would be kept updated. No one arrived, and no update was provided. I had to continue calling for information myself. The estimate was competitive, but the repeated scheduling delays, missed appointments, and lack of communication ultimately caused me to look elsewhere for the work. I cannot comment on the quality of their tree work since the job was never performed, but my experience with scheduling and communication was disappointing.
I had a really good experience working with Brian and his team. I had a big tree that had to be removed due to storm damage. I had a concern about damage to the plants and foliage around the tree but Brian assured me there would be no damage as they would be using a crane to bring down the cut limbs and branches. The crew did an excellent job with no damage to my plants and cleaned up thoroughly after they were done. They were very professional. They are also very reasonably and competitively priced. Highly recommend!
I had them take down 4 trees and stumps on each corner of my house. The trees were very close, but their service did a great job of protecting the property, and cleaning up after themselves once the job was done. I would hire them again if I needed to!
What a great experience! I had trees that needed to come down asap! They were in a very dangerous location and my wife was very concerned about the damage they could cause! I called Brian and he came out and gave me an estimate! The quote was outstanding and they came out the next day! They did the job safely and quickly! I can’t recommend these guys enough!
