Thanks Brad and crew for making our home look as good as it does and safer too!!! They also did a FABULOUS job of cleaning up after. Thank you!! read more

We've been using Brad and Black Forest to manage our trees for over 20 years. He just completed a final post-Snowpacalypse clean up of multiple trees on our tight central-Austin lot. There is, quite truthfully, no tree service in Austin I would more highly recommend than Black Forest. Brad's an up-and-up guy, straightforward, quite knowledgeable, and has some of the most highly competent crews I've ever witnessed. Let him be your first and last stop for all things tree! read more

We received this recommendation from another firm that was too booked up to take us for our residential tree clean-up project. His crew completed the job ahead of schedule, right on budget, and were communicative the whole way. Everyone was safe, they listened to our concerns, and the final product looks amazing. It was NOT a small job, but they did amazing work. I would recommend Brad and his team to anyone... read more

Brad is awesome! We reached out to multiple tree service company and Brad was by far the best. He is professional, extremely knowledgeable, great follow through and our expectations were beyond met. We had a tree that needed to be removed per the city and Brad and his team came and took care of it that week after signing the contract. They were in and out in two days and did an amazing job on the cleanup. They even had to take our fence out to get a lift into the backyard and you can't tell at ALL that the fence was taken out! I would 100% recommend Brad to anyone that is looking for tree services. read more

Ever wake up to find a tree limb has fallen down in your yard? And I'm not talking about a branch small enough you can actually pick it up and move it yourself. I'm talking about a significant chunk of a tree so large it blocks your driveway, or makes your sidewalk impassable, with limbs as big around as your waist, and you're looking at it thinking, "Damn, which one of my neighbors has a chainsaw?" It's times like that I am grateful to have Brad and Black Forest Tree Service in my life. He's helped me out of tree situations many times since I first contacted him more than 10 years ago. In addition he has also provided non-emergency services and I am more than satisfied with the work he's done for me. He brings an expertise to the game, the man knows his trees. Oftentimes, he'll recommend maintenance I hadn't thought of. His customer service is spot on, plus he has a great sense of humor. He and his team always leave the place better than they found it. Brad and Black Forest have my business as long as they are in business. read more

Brad is the best! He was recommended to me by another arborist because he has the best equipment. He is hilarious and so knowledgeable about all things outside. Thank goodness for him he told me we had poison ivy and we didn't even know. Highly recommend him! read more

Brad just finished a big job for me and his guys did a fabulous job. They were quick, safe and cleaned up when they were done. He removed a dead tree, took down a huge arm of a hackberry tree that was in danger of falling on our house, installed a cable on a pecan tree and trimmed all of the pecan trees in our yard. Trees look great and I highly recommend Brad. He is very knowledgeable and his pricing is competitive. read more

Black Forest Tree Service is, well AWESOME! Brad is a great steward of the environment and they don't just come in and whack down a bunch of trees and then bill you some outrageous dollar amount. Brad takes the time to carefully go thru your priorities and then his crew gets to work. They pile everything up in front and then a little while after the crew leaves a big truck comes by to haul away the branches and debris. I think my driveway was cleaner after they cleaned up than it was before! So many guys out there who mow your lawn and also say they do trees. Well anybody can do trees, heck you could even do it yourself but if you want the real deal and a professional you need to call Brad at Black Forest. I have used him on several occasions and never disappointed. Check it! read more

I am going to agree with the other reviewer on almost all of the comments. Brad was fantastic when he did our trees several years ago and I am only getting to this review now because I was looking for his name so I could call and get some work done! Black Forrest is really the only way to go! read more

Efficient & friendly tree service. They have all the equipment needed for big and small tree projects. When a big tree branch fell after a storm, Brad & his team were quick to respond. Our big American elm is thriving from last trimming. Approved hack tree removal went smoothly. Fair & reasonable rates. Compared to other arborist in town, I would recommend this local business from our positive experience. read more

Brad and his team responded overnight to our tree emergency. Working to remove two trees that were about to fall down before a big forecasted rain. His team was quick and cleaned up every leaf. I would strongly recommend Brad whenever you need tree service. read more

Brad and his crews are great. I've used them on my trees twice and won't hesitate to call them again.

Called Brad to cut down tree , he never showed for estimate, Called again he never returned call. Not very professional.

Brad was... well awesome. His crew was professional and the job was done right! They were done in no time and cleaned up perfectly. He came highly recommended and I see why. I love to support businesses and people like this. read more

Brad and his team recently removed 4 oak trees from our yard due to oak wilt. Brad was fantastic to work with. He team worked hard and efficiently. I would highly recommend him and his team. If we need tree work in the future I will be calling Brad. read more

Brad and his team have removed two trees of ours over the years, both with root rot, sprawling ashes that had run their course. The first was about ten years ago, and they did another one this last month. This last one was a doozy, with limbs intertwined with utility wires coming to our and the neighbor's houses, and long limbs over the roof. They removed them without damage to the house, cleaned up more than the mess they had made, ground the stump, and trimmed other trees while they were here. Highly recommended. read more

Brad went to a rental house I own to give an estimate on the removal of a large fallen tree. Never heard from him after his visit. Common courtesy goes a long long way. read more

We had a serious issue and Brad responded quickly. He demonstrated the integrity and sense of responsibility that one would expect. I was totally impressed and would recommend him to anyone who wants to trust a service provider. - Bill read more
