We decided to build a natural fence line with arborvitaes. No small investment in approximately 80 trees. Over time, they started to die off. After several frustrating attempts to replace them and start over with no success, we called My Tree Service. Jim is clearly an expert arborist. He was able to quickly diagnose the problem and treat them, curing the (fungal) issue, and saving our beautiful arbs. My Tree Service has also been back to treat our cedar trees and arborvitaes for bagworms. With their care and proper maintenance, including the right fertilizer, our trees are thriving and gorgeous. Not only has each experience been an outstanding one - incredibly professional, timely, analytical, and thoroughly informative - but Jim, Dakota and Kaitlyn are also friendly, personable and kind. They are respectful and expeditious in scheduling, and with their communications by letting us know in advance when they're on their way. We very highly recommend My Tree Service. They truly care about their customers, and about the work they do, and offer superior expertise and excellent business practices. Not to mention they are dependable. They do what they say they're going to do, when they say they're going to do it, and always with the utmost professionalism.

I had A-Unlimited trim some branches of a black walnut tree which were interfering with the utility lines coming into my house. I also had them remove a stump. Not only did they complete the requested work exceptionally well, they also went beyond and removed some dead branches from a sweet gum tree as well as removed a pile of old loose branches which i was planning on removing myself but never got around to it. The extra work was done without an additional charge. Highly recommended.
