What Our Customers Are Saying
George Klesel
The knowledge of trees is super important before you start trimming or cutting off limbs. Eric has all of that knowledge and more. Freedom tree care will take care of all of the trees I have from now on.
Michael Wingfield
Eric has been working with me on my trees now for almost two years. He has taken care of my 13 trees quite well and I am extremely impressed. His knowledge is outstanding and far superior to other tree services I have used. He will not recommend work that does need to be done. In fact, he has even given me tips on how to do some of my own work. I strongly urge you to call him for any work needing done on your trees. Freedom tree care isn’t free but the pricing sometimes feels like it is! He is more than reasonable . The pricing along with his knowledge and expertise as a Master Arborist is worth every cent.
Tonya Lisle
Eric is very professional. His price for the tree removal was very good. He cleaned up great after the job. Will definitely use him again if needed.
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.
Susan Thorngren
Eric is extremely knowledgeable about tree care, tree planting, trimming, and cutting. He is always professional with his customers. I have recommended Freedom Tree Care to numerous friends and relatives.
