7 tall cedar trees and a Holly tree next to a fence and with different leans. All expertly removed quickly and efficiently. Extremely reasonable prices. I was very impressed and pleased with the results. I would recommend without hesitation.

Ed was wonderful to work with, confirmed work to be done with me ahead of time. Our arborvitae were sadly neglected for several years Ed trimmed them up professionally, took out old dead ones and planted new shrubs. Gave me tips on caring for them. Our yard was pristine after theyre work was done. You would never have known they were there except our trees and shrubs look healthy and balanced instead of wild overgrown jungle. (They even brought up a package around the back, so it wouldnt get stolen as we were out of town at the time.) needless to say we will be adoring customers of Eds

We just moved to a new home location that had at least 10 trees and bushes that were overgrown. Ed and his team did an amazing job of removal and pruning. Far exceeded our expectations. As some trees were removed it uncovered other items that needed to be pruned. They had no problem in adapting to the changing requirements. Having the actual owner of the company on site doing the work makes a huge difference. Overall they were far superior to numerous tree services we have used in the past.

I got an estimate from Ed for a large Birch tree that had died from beetle infection. He came and looked at it and told me exactly what they would have to do and gave me a price. The one problem was that they were booked until December. But he told me that if he got a cancellation he would call me and schedule. I was very worried about waiting until December because the tree was already dropping limbs. I had already waited 7 months for another guy who had canceled numerous times.
But, this October, Ed texted me that he had a cancellation and if I wanted he could be here at 8:30 the next day.

Ed did a great job. Friendly and professional. They got here bright and early as promised and got it done. My kids were excited to watch the tree come down and the crew were all very friendly.

Have used Eds Arbor Care for a 4-5 years. They are the best in the business. Friendly, professional and truly care about the health of your trees. Hard working crew making safety a top priority. When they clean up and leave youd hardly know they where on your job site.
