What Our Customers Are Saying
Emmali Elsner
Eric did a great job removing a limb that was overcrowding our pine trees! He was responsive, got us on the schedule quickly, and was easy to work with. Would recommend for any tree care needs!!
Jane Sutcliffe
Eric gave us a thorough assessment and education about our trees. He discussed options for proactively pruning, treating, and feeding them. He presented us with a plan that was manageable and gave us confidence that someone with specialized knowledge was looking out for our trees! We are so very happy with his service!
Paulette Myers
We would highly recommend Eric and Freedom Tree Care. His attention to detail was evident from the beginning, as was his extensive knowledge of our specific trees and shrubs. He was very thorough in his work and meticulous in clean up. We will definitely use his services in the future. Our large Pin Oak is so beautifully shaped. It has never looked better!!
Curran Swift
We liked the careful pruning of our lilac bushes and crabapple tree. The tree was transformed from a tangled mess of branches to a very nicely shaped tree.
Collin Brouwer
Eric planted 40+ trees for us and did a great job. He is always prompt and willing to answer any questions we have. Would highly recommend!
