Branch Out has recently changed owners…read more I knew the previous owner and I know the current owner. Both really nice stand-up guys. With the latest soaking the Ellicott City received a rather large tree came down right across my driveway. I called Branch Out and the owner came out to the house that afternoon. Considering how hard the area got hit I was impressed he could fit me in same-day. He put the whole thing through the chipper, while saving some choice firewood. His prices are VERY reasonable, especially for this area. This is a small company and definitely deserves your business. He's actually getting some more of mine in another week.

They're a small operation--no chemical license, so if you want fertilizing, you'll need to find someone bigger. But it was nice to have the same guy do the estimate and the work. They came with a two-man team--one climber and one on the ground. Both seemed very comfortable with what they were doing. They arrived exactly as scheduled and finished trimming and clean-up within five hours. They were cooperative with the neighbors coming in and out. I happened to be here throughout the job, and they were happy to answer questions and make adjustments, but they could have worked quite well unsupervised. The results look good--I'd definitely recommend giving them a try.

He spoke from a conservative (i.e., tree-conserving and $$-preserving) perspective, which I really appreciated. He also chatted with a neighbor of mine who wants to remove half of my most beautiful tree. I would call that above and beyond!

For example, they told us we could wait to have some privacy trees trimmed which made us feel like they weren't upselling us. They were great about making sure we involved our neighbors for a tree on the shared property line. They communicated well about timing of the work. On the day, a team of 4 or 5 guys came out bright and early and well equipped. They did a great job and put on an impressive climbing/ acrobat show for the neighborhood! They cleaned up the work well and got the job done efficiently.

We had already determined to have the overgrown trees and bushes cut back since they were obscuring the house. But then in the snow, the huge plantings began to break under the weight of the ice.

Reach out to them now during the winter and they will fit you right in - a pleasant & professional family! Good job!
