The crew were excellent and did a great job. Easy to deal with, and cleaned everything up really well. Highly recommend
First rate company….friendly, knowledgeable, prompt and customer focused! Highly recommended!
Did a terrific job clearing branches from our front deck and roof line.
Took care of our twisted willow tree and was able to smooth out any communication details
John and his team went out of their way to make sure we were happy with their work.
The John the Arborist crew was so nice and hardworking. They kept you in the loop the whole day and did a wonderful job. I would definitely hire them again.
The crew that came out were great! They were professional and did a great job. I would recommend them to any one.
Our maple tree is part of the family so it was important to us that it was handled with knowledgeable and caring hands when it came to trimming and shaping after 17 years. We found exactly what we were looking for with John the Arborist and his team. We are very happy with the results and the communication throughout. Definitely recommend.
We were able to get a quote and then have John and his team come out within the next few days to trim a tree that was growing into the neighbor’s backyard. Excellent and quick work!
They did a great job of preserving our century old trees while protecting our house. If you didn’t see the trees before their work you would have a hard time telling that the took masses of branches out. Very satisfied
The crew was very courteous and did a great job pruning the top of the trees as requested and cleaning up afterward.
John and his crew have done work for us in 2024 and again this year. They are easy to work with, and go a great job trimming and removing trees and shrubs that have grown too large without damaging other nearby plants. I love having a pile of wood chips to spread in the garden, too, when they are done.
Great and friendly service. Job well done.
It was very difficult pruning 3 stems out of 5 for the health of our western red cedar and for the safety of our house and our neighbors. It was done very professionally and with no damage to our shrubs. I will call them again if I need future work done.
The team was on time, did a beautiful job, and cleaned up perfectly! Very professional business! I'll be hiring them to manicure my fruit trees this winter. Highly recommend!
Very professional, fast and efficient. Arrived on time and communication was excellent. I would highly recommend this company!
Fabulous experience start to finish! Highly recommend John and his team!
Excellent work. The young men were cordial, competent, and easy to communicate with. John, too, was friendly and professional.
Very personable and competent young men. Great to work with. They let me watch and followed my instructions—and let me change my mind. Left the area clean and neat.
Efficient, knowledgeable, easy, easy to work with. We were very pleased with the outcome. Would highly recommend.
We had an old leaning pine tree and had them remove large heavy limbs that were over our shop roof. They did a great job climbing, cutting and lowering the pieces by rope. We also had the arborist reduce flowering cherry trees that were overgrown and completely removed another that was in a bad spot. They also…
The team was professional, knowledgeable and took all the right safety measures. They were in and out without leaving a mess and we were happy with their work.
I highly recommend John the Arborist. The crew did a great job--more than I expected--for an excellent price.
The guys did a great job. Very professional. I would recommend for sure.
Thank you. The work enhances the entire yard. Great crew too!
Very impressed with your team from the quick response to my inquiry, to Johns visit to review what was needed, to Tim and his crew that showed up on time and did a great job. I loved that the equipment used for trimming was all electric and quiet.
Very good job.
John and his crew did a great job, left the site neat and worked around landscaping carefully.
Always a great job and good communication!
Everything went as planned.
The young men who pruned our trees were very pleasant and polite. They did a good job. I did have questions about whether the trees should be sprayed, and if so, when.
We are beyond happy with the service we got from John the Arborist today!! The team of three that did some topping, limbing and clean-up of multiple trees on our property were all extremely professional, knowledgeable, respectful and thorough. Highly recommended!!!
Very knowledgeable, prompt when setting appointments, and very communicative during whole process. Crew was professional and kept me in the loop as they pruned the items discussed.
My plum tree needed both pruning [of useless 'water-sprouts'], and also had two "V" shaped branch angles about to split apart. Those needed cabling & bracing. I believe their work saved the life of my plum tree. I also had a katsura tree with extraneous trunks which they removed to to achieve a better overall…
John is knowledgable and experienced and easy to talk to. The three guys who came out last week removed 15 oriental (Chinese) arborvitae from three areas, trimmed both a Douglas fir and a red cedar. Everyone was professional and friendly and I enjoyed the experience.
Great job! Fast, good work and cleaned up the debris. Thank you!
Professional and friendly employees.
Cannot say enough good things about the work done here. From the start to finish…. the team assembled was very skilled, thoughtful, and hard working. All members of the team were kind and aware of the property and surroundings (we have kids and animals around- so this meant a lot to us). The crew was even patient…
Our large maple was in need of some work. John and his crew provided a detailed quote, did a great job, and cleaned up. Very satisfied.
Lovely to deal with. Very professional and great communication.
