Wow, these people are experts at tree trimming. I had them come out to cut back a big fir tree that was in contact with my roof and the side of the house. They cut the tree back expertly, had me out to inspect the job and left the site cleaner than when they started. Will be using them again soon!

I want to share a Thank You and Appreciation to Jackie, Rick, Patrick and Spencer and for Darrel Emel's Tree Service, while once again, providing a 5 Star customer service and satisfaction. I think Jackie felt my apprehension and fear on the telephone regarding a leaning Hemlock in the back yard that could do some collateral damage whereas she was able to have Rick come out the next day to look at the situation and provide an estimate whereas he was able to arrange a crew to come out the next morning in part to the situation and my concern. The following morning, Patrick and Spencer, in the most professional and courteous manner, had the tree cut down and hauled away in chips with a cleanup second to none. Thank You, once again, Jackie, Rick, Patrick and Spencer for your outstanding customer service and satisfaction as Darrel Emel's Tree Service is the BEST!!

I want to thank you for the very professional service you provided on my trees. The men who worked on my trees were very nice and did a fine job pruning. They asked my opinion about branches to cut and gave me good advice on how to do the job properly. I recommend your company without hesitation!

I want to tell you how satisfied we are with the work your men did for us after 2 days of first class work. I haven't seen such diligent, capable, and courteous workers for a long time, especially the fellow who leads the crew. It's nice to see there are still some around. I am reminded that these things don't just happen. Somebody found the right guys, trained them well, and treats them generously, as they deserve. I suspect that somebody is you. So the congratulations go to you as well. Keep up the good work!

They have a great reputation, so it took awhile to get on the schedule, but it was worth it. These are real, certified arborists and they did beautiful work, with a huge pruning job on a dogwood and a sequoia. They consulted with me about what would be best for the trees' health and what my aesthetic was. They created an open, natural, less crowded balance between two competing large trees and removed a huge, nasty Holly tree. All the cuts were made well, no stumps, no topping. They inspired my confidence with great communication and the quality of the work. They also gave me a nice pile of arborists' chips for mulching my garden.
