"Extremely pleased with quality of work, as well as professionalism of owner and crew! After punctual arrival, they quickly cut down a dead tree exceeding 40 feet in height and removed huge branches from gigantic oak tree more than 150 years old. Additional efforts included pruning of same oak tree all at a very reasonable cost."

2019 Super Service Award Winner (Four years in a row). Locally owned and operated Gaithersburg based Tree Service. Since 2000 Emergency Service Offered. Customer satisfaction always our priority. We offer FREE estimates and affordable pricing.

"Beautiful Country did an incredible job removing our tree! We had an 80 foot maple in our backyard (very close to our house and fence) and the crew was able to remove it flawlessly. Not only were they incredibly fast in the removal process, they did a great clean up job, were very professional and were by and far the lowest quote we received when looking for companies. We were nervous hiring a company just based on the size and location of the tree but made the absolute best choice with Beautiful Country!! Definitely would recommend and hire again."

***Winter Rates are in Effect: and 10% off on jobs over $500**Our family owned company has provided quality tree services for more than 55 years. We are a fully licensed and insured business that caters to residential and commercial customers. We also have a certified Arborist on staff. In addition, we also offer free estimates and in-house financing on all of our services. Ensure that your property looks pristine with our friendly and experienced tree professionals. Cost is determined by the job. License no: #201. No matter how complex your tree removal, we have the experience to: Do the job right Do the job safely Do the job efficiently Do the job affordably Do the job to your complete satisfaction

"They took down a dying ash for me and did a good job. There are a few big reasons I'm giving them a bad review. First, despite my specifically asking if a tree removal permit was required, they said no. They know better - I found out afterwards that a permit is required. I could have been fined a serious amount of $$$. They also recommended trimming my huge elm tree in July, but lucky for me two other tree companies told me that elms can only be trimmed in winter when they are dormant. Trimming elms when they have leaves risks Dutch Elm disease. Shifflett has been in business for a long time - surely they know better about all of the above. Really disappointed. In DC, both you as the homeowner and the tree service can get slapped with hefty fines (like $10K and up) for failing to apply for a permit to remove a tree. For a dead or dying tree, the permits are free. Adirondack Tree not only told me I had to get a permit, they also applied and got it for me. It took about 2 days. People may not know that in DC and other areas like Takoma Park, MD, you need a permit to remove trees, but a professional tree service should know and follow this law, it's there for a good reason. See ddot.dc.gov/page/tree-re… Beyond that, Shifflett's estimate that was way more than those from two other tree companies. I'm just lucky that I got other estimates - otherwise I would have paid far more, risked being fined for not having the required permit, and my elm tree could have gotten Dutch Elm disease due to Shifflet's negligence."

Yes, we admit it. We’re tree huggers. Given the amount of attention normally paid to our leafy friends, it’s a wonder some don’t have an inferiority complex. We’ve been giving the trees and shrubs of Ann Arundel County and surrounding areas a lot of TLC for nearly 30 years. We know what they need to thrive and show off their natural beauty. Richard’s Tree Care has three full crews and three estimators. So we’re easily able to keep up with the demand for our services. Check out some of the information and tips on our website and then call us to talk about your trees.

"We had a leaning tree in danger of hitting our deck. They came out quickly, and took it down without a hitch."
