Bruce Miller describes a pruning job, the equipment used, material pickup, and the finish in his own words.

Prompt service. Jose came to our property same afternoon I called and started the job the next day. The large crew and ample crane made quick work of a significant pruning job on a 150 year old water oak. Very meticulous work on pruning with the crane. Dumpster truck came an hour after the job to take everything away. Thanks and very satisfied.

Apex is amazing! We worked with Alfredo to get some trees trimmed back and dead branches removed in our yard. He was very responsive, took time to listen to what we needed done, and was knowledgeable and courteous. The whole team’s service was fast, efficient, and very well done. They cleaned up everything and even went above and beyond to clean up an extra debris pile we had in the backyard. We found a gem with Apex and are definitely going to use them for some more work in the fall. If you’re looking for a reliable tree/ yard service company, we highly recommend them.

We were so pleased with every aspect of the service we received from Apex. Very friendly service. They did an incredible job cutting back large branches which were over the front and back of our house. This was a very big job and the took care of our tree and cleaned up immediately when they finished. Nothing but positive things to say about this experience. I would highly recommend Apex and use them again.

We hired Apex Tree Service to trim two very large trees in our front yard. They were professional, courteous and completed the job as promised for a reasonable price. I highly recommend them for any tree work.

Call about tree trimming
Can the tree be evaluated from a photograph?

A photograph or phone description cannot establish everything happening on site. Describe what you can see without approaching damaged or suspended limbs.

Is cleanup automatically part of trimming?

Ask for cut-material handling and cleanup expectations to appear in the written scope.

When should I use Emergency Tree Service?

If a tree has fallen, struck a structure, blocked access, split, or left a large limb hanging, keep away and use Emergency Tree Service. If people or power lines are involved, call 911 or the electric utility first.
