I am so glad I made the smart choice by choosing them to address my tree service needs. They took down a huge 60 year old sweet gum tree near my home with precision!!! They also pruned back some huge oak and Asian tree limbs and took down a diseased tree in my front yard. Their attention to details are simply outstanding!!! I was extremely pleased by their professionalism. This crew knows how to work fast and efficiently. Their clean up job was impeccable. This crew did exceedingly and abundantly above all I could ask or think! I truly look forward to working with them again for future the tree services. Money well spent!!!😁😁😁😁 On a scale of 1 to 10 I would give them a 10 +++ Blessings to you and your crew Gilmer!!!😁🙏😁 Kind regards ZoePosted on Google Jason SurrattTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We had them remove two tree stumps on our property, prune many of our trees, remove smaller trees and bushes and trimmed our bushes. They were wonderful. Gilmer was easy to work with and provided very fair pricing. Gilmer sent his team lead by Omar. Omar and team were very professional, went beyond what I thought they would do and cleaned up everything very nicely. The yard looks so much better. We had some confusion on one tree that wasn't included in the original quote, and they were so kind to still remove the small tree with the original price provided. If you want a company that is reasonable in price, does an excellent job, and goes beyond what you expect, I recommend hiring this company! We will DEFINITELY hire them again for future tree/shrub removal in the future! Thanks again Gilmer, Omar, and team!!!Posted on Google Jenifer JacksonTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I had a big limb fall during a storm, and I called smart tree service when I saw it the next morning. I was contacted very quickly and came same morning to give me an estimate. He also recommended another dead branch be cut off so that it would damage anything. The team was amazing! They did a fantastic job with cutting and removing all debris when they were done! Definitely recommend them, and will be contacting them again for any tree service needs! 10 out of 10!!!Verified by TrustindexTrustindex verified badge is the Universal Symbol of Trust.
