CG Arborist Services did an outstanding job trimming the trees in my yard. They arrived as scheduled and stayed the entire day trimming the 12 plus trees in my yard, one of which I actually had them cut down completely. Not only did they do a great job trimming and cutting down my trees, but they also did a great job cleaning up afterwards, too. I would highly recommend CG Arborist Services to anyone looking to have professional tree work done in their yard at an excellent price.

I had a branch that had fallen from a tree and was suspended from another branch. Because it was a small job I was concerned it might be difficult to get someone to bid on it. After contacting CG Arborist Services by email, I got a call from Chris within 12 hours. He was in the area gave me a quote which I accepted and he was able to fit me in the same day. Chris was professional, did the work as promised, and cleaned everything that came out of the tree as well as the fall leaves that were on the ground near the tree. The service was excellent. I would not hesitate to recommend him even if you have a small job to be done.

Excellent, Exceptional are words that come to mind. Chris and his helper Bill did a fair amount of work at my home, which included removal of trees and shrubs, as well as, pruning trees and trimming shrubs. They were doing so well I added work that I was considering for another time to the list while they were here. Chris and Bill were professional, responsive, punctual, with clear communication skills doing quality work add cleanliness, good value with a touch of friendliness to the list for a five star experience. In the many years I have lived in my home I can not remember being so unexpectedly impressed with any of the many people I have hired to work here, in any category, as I have been with CG Arborist Service. A true gem of a company.

I was very impressed by their knowledge and honest opinion about what needed and didn't need to get done. Chris came to my property quickly to evaluate the trees and offered a reasonable estimate the following day. The work was scheduled promptly after. Out of the MANY places I called, Chris was the most responsive, punctual, and professional. I felt confident that the job would be done correctly and safely. They gave me the option to keep the wood for burning and cut it down to manageable pieces for me. They were very respectful of the property and didn't leave a mess. I never felt unsure or nervous because they handled everything with very safely. I am grateful they persuaded me to keep the tree that was blocking the sun for my veggie garden. Instead of knocking it down, it just needed the lower limbs cut and trimmed. Now my veggies get the sunlight they need, and our hammock still has the shade we enjoy. Win, win! They worked on 5 trees in my yard and it feels bigger some how. Budget friendly too! Love it! Hire them, you won't be disappointed.

Chris and his helper worked together with utmost consideration for safety. They took down all the limbs as we talked about and a few more. The cuts were made at the collar for quickest healing. Chris knows his stuff. He and Bill are pleasant to have working in my yard quietly discussing the plan for each move while I worked in my garden. They cleaned up and then did a walk around to make sure everything was right. It was the nicest experience I've had with professional tree people ever!

The 2 workers arrived on time. They cut hanging and downed tree limbs from a summer storm. They cleaned up after the cutting. My walking paths are now safe and clean. They wear masks. Their comments and questions are professional. After they left, my yard and lawn were clean with no debris and no fallen branches.

Hired Chris to take down three maple trees which he quoted at $1,500 for the whole job. After two weeks of work he had not finished taking down one tree, I had all the tree limbs stacked in my front yard which killed my lawn. Ultimately he decided he could not complete the job, gave the job to another arborist who was only able to take down the one tree, and had to hire another service to complete the job (axxxx txxx sxxxxxx is amazing) and left me to remove all the tree limbs. State shut Chris down for not having worker comp insurance on his employees. Do not hire.
Response from

"It is been 3 years since the situation you are discussing occurred back in 2017, it is now 2020. We have NEVER been shut down for not having the proper insurance and I can assure you WE HAVE all the necessary insurances / license and have proofs of insurance to provide clients if necessary, as well as the equipment to clean up debris from a job. I do not understand why 3 years later you are bringing this up when it was a misunderstanding and had been peacefully resolved 3 years ago."

Chris and his associate did a terrific job cleaning up storm damage from a tropical storm. he came and estimated the cost the same day I called sent me the estimate. He was at my residence when he said he would be and informed me of his process of removing large tee limb the size of a tree. He removed wood and cleaned the area. To remove the tree limb he had to climb the tree. He also trimmed the tree so that it would heal its damage. This is the second time I have hired Chris and I highly recommend him.

Chris was informing, punctual and I was amazed how he scales trees. He's very careful and climbs the trees effortlessly. He's a young lumberjack, and I was very impressed with the way he works. Cleans up the debris after he cuts the limbs down. Very concerned if I was pleased with the work he did. Follows up with text messages all along the way. I would definitely recommend him.

I was completely satisfied with the quality of work, the fair value of the work and the timeliness. It is a bit concerning to hire someone you don’t know from a referral source or reputation, but I was really pleased. Chris is a gentleman and a man of character.
