These guys were great. They removed a large Ash tree that was killed by Emerald Ash Borer, and treated another Ash Tree infected with the borer.
After 5 quotes for the removal from local companies, Premier was the cheapest by $250. Treatment for the other tree was on par with the other companies.

I will definitely use them again for tree care.

I've used Premier Tree Service twice now and both times I've been very happy with the results. The first time was to remove a dead tree at my new house. They did an excellent job and got rid of the stump as well. This time it was to remove trees too close to the house and remove long, overhanging branches that could hit my roof or powerlines. (Images of icy branches breaking has me prepping for winter in August) Brady was very conscientious and made sure the trees were cared for and balanced, while getting rid of dead branches and the dangerous ones. The crew did an excellent job with cleanup. I will use them again in the future when needed. I definitely recommend this company.

We just had a huge ash tree removed yesterday and the guys from premier were excellent. I would highly recommend them for any job, big or small, that you might have. They were very professional, efficient, safe, everyone knew what there job was, had all the right equipment, and reasonably priced. They took down the tree, ground the stump and any roots that were exposed, and cleaned up afterwards. Top notch job. Glad we went with them. RayJ

Premier Tree Service was in our neighborhood working on a job across the street when we called to get a quote on tree and stump removal. Within minutes, they came to our door offering to do the job same day and at a great price. They did a great job and were very nice and professional. 10/10 would recommend!
