I cannot say enough good things about BRTE. A massive beech tree in our neighbors yard was dropping…read morelimbs left and right and causing serious damage to our property. I researched multiple companies in Fredericksburg and ended up speaking with 7 of them. 5 different companies came out to give me a quote. Every single one of them said it would take a day maybe more and that we had no space in our yard to work so the fee would be even higher because of this. That is until I spoke with Jason. He beat everyone else's quote and was confident his crew could get it done in half a day. We set up an appointment and everything was ready to go.... and then at the very last minute my neighbor backed out of our agreement! She said she could get the job done cheaper. I assured her I didn't think she'd be able to beat his quote but she assured me she "had a guy" and I was forced to cancel our appointment. It was SO EXTREMELY FRUSTRATING!!! Jason was very patient and understanding though all the drama. In the end her guys was a total scam... he'd given her an initial quote then came out to do the job and told her it was going to be TWICE as much as BRTE had quoted!!! My neighbor felt really bad about everything and asked me to please call Jason back. Amazingly Jason was still able to fit us in the same day. BRTE did everything they said they did and more. Three guys whipped that tree into shape like it was a piece of cake! I was extremely impressed with how they lowered the huge branches with such precision in such a narrow space. The space every other company said was almost unworkable. I was sure my garden would take a hit but not a single tomato plant was harmed and our shed wasn't even touched! We were literally cheering the guys on with every successful drop! These guys are BADASS and I have already recommended them to several people. I will absolutely use them again! And our tree.... OMG it looks GLORIOUS!

We had 2 trees on the property that needed to be removed. An Oak right on the property line,…read moreinterrupting the fence, that seemed like it was dying and had fallen on the neighbors house about 3 years ago when the house was still foreclosed on. The one Pine that was chocking out the another tree we liked better (very healthy tree). The property was abandoned about 6 years and the trees neglected far longer.... but they needed some TLC. That was all we requested, 2 trees removed. Goodfellers came out and evaluated ALL the trees on the property for the first estimate. They let us know ahead of time OTHER issues with the remaining trees. A Maple that was actually 2 trees, grown together, growing in separate directions that the wind was shearing and ripping at every chance. A Willow Oak that needed to have a trim to keep it healthy. FAR MORE information than any of the other SEVEN tree servicing companies we had come out and do an estimate had provided us. They were able to schedule us within a decent amount of time from when we called back to let them know we were planning on using their services. They also kept us in the loop about the standard maintenance time that kept their vehicles in the shop. (It's so so SO great to see a company who will have a direct dialogue with you during vehicle and or tool maintenance that prevents them from making their appointment with you). Day 1 with their trucks and 3 men (owner and 2 employees) took out the dying Oak. It was over 100 degrees Fahrenheit so the guys were able to chop all but about 10 feet of the tree and haul the timber away. PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE have water available for your guys. It's SO important to keep them hydrated and safe while they service your property! They left their vehicles at the house (we had NO problems with that, neither did the neighbors!) Day 2 was literally the next day and they showed up promptly at 8:30am to begin work, with the same 3 gentlemen. They took out the rest of the Oak. Disposed of that promptly. There was about 2 feet of trunk we wanted to keep solid so we could make a table out of it and they went out of their way to make sure that was left in good condition and rolled away where it would not be mistaken as throw away. They then took down the Pine and attached an metal wire anchor with bolts at the upper portion of the Maple so it could begin to heal and not chafe the bark. The last thing they did was trim about 20% of the Willow Oak. It was wonderful to see the owner up in the bucket doing the trimming. Most owners don't like to get their hands dirty. This guy wanted to be a part of the action! After the trimming they fed the pieces to the shredder machine that threw the mulch into the attached truck. They armed themselves with rakes and leaf blowers and did a bang up job at cleanup. They went into our neighbors yard and cleaned up all the debris. I kid you not, he was THRILLED at how well they cleaned up; they even put all the boards back up on the fence! They have dogs are really appreciated the extra care to ensure the dogs would not escape. They tried to pick up the smallest piles of leaves and twig trimmings as efficiently as possible. Blew all the excess leaves off the ENTIRE yard. We have a quarter of an acre. That was wonderful to see that level of detail to ensure they left a minimum trace. While they were cleaning, I had the back neighbor pop his head through the fence to get a card. He had been watching them the last 2 days and wanted to use them to remove his Sweet Gum tree. THAT to me says a lot. Day 3 they came back with their stump grinding machine. We had to remove a portion of the fence, as the Oak was interrupting and spreading into the neighbors yard, but not a problem for us. They ground the stump out. They do NOT chase roots, so you're kinda stuck with those until they decide to degrade... They also ground the stump of the Pine. Absolutely outstanding, respectful gentlemen. Very wonderful to see the same group come back day after day. I highly recommend these guys to service your property for tree removal or tree trimming. Let's face it. I'm NOT a certified arborist and I can pretty much guarantee anyone researching is not one either. Let these guys take care of your trees to ensure they stay healthy and give you shade and aesthetic pleasure to your home for years to come. Anyone can get a pull saw on an extension stick and take out trees limbs that are about the size of your finger... but it takes a dedicated professional to assess your entire property, show love to ALL of your trees and make sure you are nothing less that completely satisfied before they leave. Goodfellers is that dedicated professional you want at your home.

The team was professional maneuvering around the tall trees and ensured all large limbs and logs were safely lowered to the ground. All debris was quickly removed and mulched immediately or stored in a vehicle. The Holly and maple trees were trimmed exactly to my specifications. All areas were left clean and no damage to other trees or structures occurred. Carlos Tree Service provided a free quote, and the service was provided on the day and time I requested. Carlos Tree Service provided excellent work for the price of the service. They are now my "go to" tree service provider.

They damaged a lot of smaller trees that I asked them to avoid just running into them with their equipment. I do not recommend this company. The only good thing about it was the price.

They trimmed my flowers and brought in mulch to spread. They thoroughly cleaned up the total work areas neatly. The only downside was that they accidentally hewed down my beautiful lavender plant, which I replaced with catmint. That said, I was thoroughly pleased with their work; though not gardeners by profession, they did a highly remarkable job, and I would definitely rehire!
