Great service - use them every year, always do great work and clean up everythingPosted on Google Rhonda JonesTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I randomly chose this service because I was drawn to the JC in the name. It reminded me of the Big Guy. I needed two large trees removed and the owner was very responsive, offered a competitive price and had availability. We are very satisfied with the service and the clean up after was more than expected. Highly recommend.Posted on Google Carol DowellTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I had the pleasure of working with this company recently at the community I oversee, and I couldn’t be more pleased with the experience. We needed tree work done, and their response time was outstanding. The team was professional, courteous, and completed the job efficiently. Their pricing was fair and reasonable, and the quality of their work exceeded expectations. I highly recommend them for any of your tree trimming or tree service needs.Posted on Google Akeem AjaniTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I needed two trees in my backyard cut down—one was very large, and the other was smaller but was hanging over my neighbor’s yard. I also had a large bush removed that was blocking my mailbox. They were fast, communicative, and arrived on time. They cleaned up everything after the job was finished, and the whole process was smooth from start to finish. I would definitely recommend them to anyone needing tree or yard work. I would recommend 1000% and prices are very competitive.Posted on Google Ken HickokTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We needed a stump removed in our backyard. JC tree was quick to respond with an estimate and the cost was in line with my expectations. When they arrived they were polite and in and out in a little over an hour. They left the work area clean and you couldn’t even tell work was done. Highly recommend JC tree.Posted on Google SM RegelTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We met Marcos over a year ago to get a quote for tree trimming. The tree is a 25+ year old Bradford Pear. It’s BIG, beautiful and luscious. I had reservations about any serious cutting affecting it esthetically. Between the skepticism and dread of dealing with neighbors, it got put off. Eighteen months later, a large branch fell and it was beyond obvious that the weight of all of the branches was just too much. We got back in touch with Marcos and he graciously came back out to reevaluate. I explained why we had postponed the inevitable and he went into detail on the how/when/why. Though still reluctant, we moved forward. The crew was kind, courteous and respectful of my property along with surrounding neighbors. It was the honesty and attentiveness that ultimately locked in the decision to use this local company. The result was more than one could hope for!Posted on Google Dustin GordonTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. JC Tree Service should get 10 stars! I had at least a dozen Giant Birds of Paradise that were inflicting damage, potentially my pool, and they helped not only cut these beasts down, but remove the stumps as well. Jeremy, Victor and Antonio cut down the trees with ease and efficiency. Rob and Ray cut out the stumps (NOT AN EASY TASK) and had the utmost respect towards our pool and existing landscaping. Ken and Marcos also inspected everything after to make sure it was up to our satisfaction which isn't something you get from a tree service everyday. I appreciate all their work and would recommend them to anyone! Picture is what they removed, stumps were the hard part.Posted on Google MikeTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. JC Tree Service was great! On time, did an amazing job. Our yard looks fantastic.Posted on Google Mike PivecTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I read other reviews on JC Tree and all were good. So I called to get a quote and got a call back same day. I have a Townhouse and needed a Maca tree stump grinded out in my backyard. I do not have a gate so the challenge was how to get it done. Next day they came to look at the job and gave me a very good price and figured out enough room through my home to bring in the grinder. We made a date to do the job. They came as promised and did a perfect job! Service person was wonderful polite and professional. VERY HAPPY! I RECOMMEND THEM 100%
