I have used Kevin's service in the past for tree trimming and his workmanship is excellent. When complete the area is perfectly cleared and left in great condition. This most recent storm we had unfortunately caused severe damage to one of our trees and it will have to come doen. While not desirable, we are comforted that Kevin's crew will again assisting us with our needs.

Kevin Holden and his son have managed very large tree removal on our property with expertise. They are highly experienced, well organized, polite, reliable, really experts in tree maintenance. Because they have outstanding equipment as well they can remove a very large tree from difficult terrain or a garden without affecting damage on surrounding areas. They are quick, efficient, really experts.
I recommend this company with great enthusiasm after using several other local companies with less expertise, poorer equipment and almost the same price. Go with Kevin Holden tree removal service and
