DO NOT USE!!!
Used them a decade ago when the dad, Chuck, ran the business. Chuck the dad, has Alzheimeners and his son's now run it. Used recently for a good amount of work, and a HECK of a lot of money, and while the family members claim to have education/ training/ certification in arborist work, proper tree pruning, tree insect and diseases, etc., they CLEARLY DONT KNOW WHAT THEY'RE DOING! RUINED MY BEAUTIFUL MATURE TREES with improper pruning. Actually damaged main branches/limbs with a chain saw, cut too close to branch unions, allowed crossed branching, cut a diseased tree without sterilization thus allowing disease to spread to healthy raw-cut branches. I don't know much about pruning but even I know enough to know that is WRONG! A miracle one of my trees, that was so improperly cut, was not broken/damaged during wind and hail this year.
Unfortunately I was not here when much of the work was being done as I would have fired them on the spot. I wanted to weep when I saw the butchering job that was done. Then they gave me some line about my trees needed all this treatment for this and that disease or insect, and an outrageous price to do the work for that. Needless to say NO WAY WOULD I EVER USE THIS COMPANY AGAIN. My recommendation is DO NOT USE THEM if you care about your yard. Blue River Tree Care in Boulder, who are professional, experienced, trained and have certified arborists who can produce proof of it (and way less expensive to boot!) did my spring time fertilization and bug prevention...which, as another reviewer commented, was nothing like the horror story told by Chucks family of extensive and expensive bug and disease infestation control we needed. Blue River was absolutely appalled to see how my trees were done. Blue River (who I did use several years ago for a good pruning job) will do long term restorative to begin an attempt to fix the hideous mess I was left with by Chuck's. Poor Chuck senior, he was a good guy. Chuck's Tree Care in 2018 is HORRIBLE. DO NOT USE! read more
