My front yard had gotten overgrown, including some trees that grew like crazy. Michael did a fantastic job trimming, weeding, and mulching and for a great price. He also checked out a couple trees I was concerned about and told me what to watch out for. Highly recommend!

Details: Residential • Maintain an existing garden • Extra small (less than 1,000 sq ft) • No, I need help buying plants • I don't need a sprinkler or drip system installed • No, this is a one-time project • Weeding • Mulching

Michael and his work mate Scott (I think was his name) did a great job trimming my trees! They were properly insured, which I was happy about, especially since Michael was literally climbing the trees. I have a lot more sun now! — sun for my roof (to get rid of the growing mossy stuff), for my yard (maybe I’ll do a garden), and for my deck (so I can enjoy the sun without going to the nearby park). And the price was great (literally cheaper than my friend who has a tree business). Thanks, you guys!

Details: Home • Trim trees • 1 tree • More than 40 feet

Mike does a great job of removing trees. He removed two of our evergreen trees at reasonable price. I highly recommend him if you have a project that needs to get done.

First time contracting Urban Arborist. They were timely, responsive, flexible, knowledgeable, and hard working! They even accommodated my extra request to leave and chop up the wood. Great value for the work done. I don’t see any reason why I’d hire someone else in the future!
