Greg did an amazing job removing a rather cumbersome tree stump from our yard. He was expedient and professional. His communication and friendly attitude made my decision to go with him all the more easy. Would 1000% go with Greg for any future tree related services.

Greg is friendly, answered all my questions in person & by email, gave least expensive quote, prompt in service, removed my tree quickly & stump grinding was better than I hoped for! Wow, thanks Greg for your superb quality work. John CampbellAugust 27, 2024.Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.

Super nice ! Recommend highly. Thank you Rebecca YoderApril 8, 2024.Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We had quite a few small stumps scattered across our yard. Greg was quick to get us an estimate and, when he came to grind the stumps, he did an excellent job, careful not to damage our fence. His price is very fair and we will definitely recommend him. urpyboyDecember 27, 2023.Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Greg did a great job removing three large tree stumps in our yard, placing protective screens to prevent chips from damaging the house. He was very responsive to my requests and did an excellent job of cleaning up after the work was done. Highly recommend and would hire again. Bill KammererNovember 29, 2023.Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Greg was fantastic! He provided a very reasonable and competitive estimate, explained everything he needed to do and also was knowledgeable in what was causing our tree to die. Greg said he would try to work us into his schedule in the next 1-2 months, but he called me yesterday to say he would be able to do remove the tree the next day if it worked for us. He showed up on time and did a great job. He cleaned up the area and made our yard look like he had not even been there (other than the tree removed). While he was here, Greg aslo trimmed our other trees so they would not be subject to the same condition that impacted the removed tree. I would highly recommend Greg! Jill TrummNovember 15, 2023.Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Gregg is the guy! I had to big trees to take down and would recommend Gregg to anyone. He was super quick to return my call, arrived fast to bid, and sent a detailed estimate via email. On demo day, he was efficient and careful, plus, he cleaned up EVERYTHING. Seriously, not a twig was left and he cut down two big, dead trees. Amazing!!!!
