What Our Customers Are Saying
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!!
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.
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!
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!
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!
