Portland’s trees are old, large, and close to your home. Hire a certified arborist.

Locally owned. ISA Certified. Fully insured. Not Bartlett. Not Davey. Us.

Portland has two national tree service franchises — Bartlett and Davey — operating in this market. Both send a sales representative to your property. Both have corporate pricing structures. In both cases, the person who quotes the job is not the person who climbs the tree.

We’re locally owned. An ISA Certified Arborist assesses your trees and does the work. You deal with the same person from the first call to the final cleanup.

Portland’s older neighborhoods have mature trees — sugar maples, white ash, American elms — that have been growing for a century. They’re close to houses, close to power lines, and close to the structures that matter to you. That’s not a job for an unlicensed crew. It’s not a job for a franchise that subcontracts its work. It’s a job for a certified arborist who is accountable to you directly.

What We Do

**Tree Removal**

Safe, controlled removal of trees of any size. In Portland’s older neighborhoods, trees come down near houses, fences, power lines, and neighbors’ property. We protect all of it.

**Tree Trimming & Pruning**

Crown cleaning, deadwood removal, structural pruning. The work that keeps a tree healthy and safe — done by a certified arborist, not a crew with equipment.

**Stump Grinding**

Complete stump removal to below grade. No stump, no sprouts, no obstacle in the yard.

**Emergency Storm Service**

Nor’easters don’t keep business hours. We respond to storm damage calls throughout our service area.

**Tree Health & Disease Management**

Emerald Ash Borer has hit Maine hard. Dutch Elm Disease is a continuing threat in Portland’s older neighborhoods. An ISA Certified Arborist can diagnose what’s wrong and tell you whether treatment or removal is the right call.

What you actually get when you hire a national franchise.

Bartlett and Davey are established companies. They are also franchises — corporate structures where the salesperson, the arborist, and the crew may be three different people with three different levels of accountability to you.

When you call us, you speak with the certified arborist doing the work. One point of contact. One person who owns the outcome. If a question comes up after the job is done, you call the same number and reach the same person.

We are part of this community. Our work is visible in Portland’s neighborhoods every day. That accountability is not something a franchise can replicate.

Large trees near structures are not a job to cut corners on.

We are fully insured — liability coverage and workers’ compensation — and we will show you our certificates before we start. We are ISA Certified, which means our arborists have demonstrated their knowledge and maintain it through ongoing education.

We work throughout our service area and surrounding communities. If you’re nearby and unsure, call us.
