"KB Tree and Landscaping Service did an outstanding job removing a tree in my yard, and I truly can’t recommend them enough. From start to finish, they were professional, patient, and extremely skilled. What really impressed me was how calmly and respectfully they handled a challenging situation with difficult neighbors. They communicated clearly, took extra precautions, and still completed the job efficiently and safely without any damage to surrounding property. The crew was punctual, knowledgeable, and left my yard clean when they were done. It’s rare to find a company that combines expert workmanship with great customer service, but KB Tree and Landscaping absolutely does. If you need tree work done and want a team you can trust, this is the company to call. I would hire them again without hesitation."

***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."

"They were quick to respond and performed the work within a week, However, that is the only nice thing I have to say. Scheduling was a bit odd (texting on Monday morning asking to come over with no notice--which I was unable to do--and then the next day cancelling at the last minute after I took time off from work to meet them). When they actually performed the work, they left a giant tree limb in my backyard, which I now somehow have to dispose of, and huge gouges in my front lawn (looks like their truck took a joy ride, despite my having more than ample driveway space). They assured me the lawn would "puff back up" when it rained, but of course it didn't, because that is not a thing. Instead, now I have nice lakes in my yard that should make for excellent mosquito feeding grounds in a few months. They promised to "send someone out" to look at the damage, but of course they didn't do that either. So in addition to paying (way too much) for tree trimming and removal, I get to pay to repair my lawn and figure out how to remove this tree limb from my yard."

We Are a 15 Years of experience working on Tree Services Family owned business. Book your FREE ESTIMATE online at https://calendly.com/axcobartreeservices/schedulefreeestimate Melvin Alfaro started this business in 2010 ( After Graduated from Seneca Valley High School , in Germantown, MD 20874 ). With the support of his brother (Fidel Alfaro) , family, friends, teachers and customers who trust in our quality, the business got established. Thanks for all the support.

"Axcobar should be your first choice for tree cutting and removal. Their service was outstanding in every way. Melvin responded in person to my emergency call after the recent tornado (microburst) in Olney took out six of the large, old trees in my yard. One of the trees was hanging over the deck and threatened to create more damage to my house if not skillfully removed. Axcobar showed up with a fabulous crew and a couple of trucks with shredders attached. These folks worked tirelessly over two days to cut, shred, and remove the trees that fell and the ones that were damaged and still standing. In addition, they removed all of the broken branches, twigs, and assorted debris in the area. We can not say enough good things about this service. Oh btw, their pricing was extremely competitive and fair. We will use them again and highly recommend them to others."

"Excellent service. I called to setup a consultation for the removal of a dead tree in my backyard. Their foreman arrived on the same day (on a weekend) and gave me a quote to remove the dead tree as well as some brush in the general area. Work was completed during that week and the crew did an excellent job cleaning everything up. Would definitely hire again."
