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.
Wild Oak Campground
We had several new trees planted by Eric and had several dead trees removed. Very competitive pricing and great service. Very knowledgeable and has continued to help us with all our tree needs. Great company to work with!
Marietta Denniston
Just had the guys from Freedom come and remove the ‘killer limb’ that lurked completely over my roof, front to back. They also took out some dead sections of the tree and now it is growing straight up, not drooping over the house. Then, after chipping the large chunks, they raked and cleaned up all the small trash too and the yard was cleaner when they left than when they arrived. Great work, only took a couple hours, very safety-minded and careful. Would definitely recommend!
Darlene Bryant
Talked with Freedom Tree Care early in the week. They came by to take a look at our project of tree trimming and a stump removal. They presented a very reasonable estimate within less than 8 hours . We approved and they set up a time to come do the trim. WOW! this all done within a few days! Very professional and knowledgeable as well as personable. Eric and Andrew did a great job. We only have to wait for the gas/water/electric lines to be marked to get our stump leveled. They even smooth out, add dirt and apply grass seed if requested. Doesn't get any better than that! We will definitely be referring them to family, friends and neighbors! We are already thinking of other projects! Make sure you give them a call today! You won't be sorry!
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!
