Should be called Excellent Tree Service. Ryan came to my house the day I called, educated me on the proper care of my ash and red maple trees, told me one tree was in good trim and discussed how best to trim a neighbor's Russian elm that had overgrown into my yard. The price for the work was extremely reasonable. Within a week, he came back with his professional, friendly crew of three who proceeded to thoughtfully and efficiently cut off the more than two story offending branches in a way that was respectful of the tree. It was amazing to watch the agility and skill with which this was done. And the cleanup afterwards exceeded expectations. Highly recommend to anyone needing tree care.

Ryan came to my home on time designated and was very knowledgeable regarding why my tree was dying. He was informative and professional. He gave me an estimate it would cost for tree removal. I was impressed with his professionalism and timeliness overall which you do not find often. I would use them in the future.

They were very careful not to damage our fence and plants near the tree. They cleaned up thoroughly afterwards and hauled everything away except for the wood they sawed up for us. We are completely satisfied.

It is an honor for me to write a review about Ryan. He has been such a blessing to me. Words cannot express how much I sincerely appreciate his help with cutting down big, tall trees. As a homeowner who has worked with many different contractors/companies during the last 16 years, I humbly yet confidently speak highly of Ryan. He not only is a pleasurable and patient person to work with but is also the most honest and kind person I have never met in the business of home maintenance. He is so professional, skillful, and efficient that the job of cutting down trees appears to be so easy and fast. What sets Ryan apart from the rest of contractors/companies in NM is his uniquely indescribable personality, which we can hardly find in this society nowadays. Unlike 99+ % of contractors/companies who always take advantage of women and old people, Ryan generously shared his knowledge with me and genuinely gave good recommendations for my benefits instead of his. Lastly but most importantly, Ryan is very earnest and has a beautiful nature.

Ryan is a fine young man the likes of which one rarely sees anymore. He loves and respects these beings of the forests. His approach is one of caring attention to the health of the tree and not one of exerting power over. This is not just a job for Ryan. This is artistry and communion. He is very professional, knowledgeable and skilled with his tools-a real delight! And, he takes all the branches with him, and you are left with a transformed landscape. Sincerely, Idieh S. in, Santa Fe

Ryan is very professional and knowledgeable. He arrived on time for the quote and then for the work. Because I have had other companies give quotes and do tree trimming, I found Ryan to be very fair with his pricing. I know that I'll need more work done in the future and will be calling Ryan to do it.

"Thank you Monica. I look forward to our future care of your Ash tree and the others."

Ryan was knowledgeable, professional, friendly and responsive. He and his apprentice did a great job trimming a large branch in an awkward location over my roof and patio flower beds. Work was done quickly with nice clean up and debris was hauled away.
