These guys were great. We had a couple of trees that were in really bad spots. Close to power lines, houses, and fences. They took them down with no incident, were very nice, & you couldn’t even tell they were there when they left. Cesar was very helpful with the price. I can’t praise them enough.

We recently hired The Mockingbird Tree Service for work at our home, and the experience was outstanding from start to finish. The crew arrived right on time, and Cesar took the time to walk the property with us to thoroughly review the scope of work and ensure everything was clearly understood. They removed three trees, cleaned up and trimmed numerous overgrown shrubs and hedges, and carefully cut back branches that were touching the house. They also removed an overgrown juniper bush that had become unmanageable. The team worked efficiently, completed the entire project in a single day, and left our yard spotless. Their pricing was very reasonable for the quality and scope of work provided. We were extremely impressed with their professionalism and attention to detail, and we fully intend to use them again for future maintenance. Highly recommend!

We’re glad we could help transform your property and leave everything clean and safe for you and your family. We really appreciate your recommendation and look forward to helping you again with any future tree care needs. 🌳 – The Mockingbird Tree Service Team

I am eternally grateful for The Mockingbird Tree Service. If you’re looking for an honest, hardworking crew, look no further than Cesar and his team. I had an impending dire situation with large limbs hanging over my house during the Nashville Jan 2026 winter storm. Cedar quickly came out, gave me a fair quote, and was able to complete the job two days later while the storm was still going on! For reference, the second quote I had was over double the price for less work. Cesar even worked with me on the specific information insurance would need for reimbursement. Thank you!

I highly recommend Mockingbird Tree Service. Cesar and his team are professional, courteous, knowledgable, and take great care in the process. They are reasonably priced and go the extra mile. They took care of trimming some massive branches and prior breaks on our 100 year-old pecan trees, that are over 60 feet tall. I really appreciate that they sealed all the wounds of the tree afterwards as I specially requested, which was difficult for such a tall tree. Great family-owned company.
