Fallen Tree Removal Customer Reviews
Tight lot near JMU, they still managed to rig down two big trees without touching the neighbor's fence. Very impressive.
Ground three old stumps left over from the previous owner. Machine made quick work of it and they raked the chips back in as requested.
A dead tree near the Arboretum tree line was leaning toward our shed. Crew came out within a couple days and took it down in careful sections. Cleanup was good, could've been slightly faster.
