We had a pretty big limb hanging from one of our old Oaks after a recent storm. It was dangling near our propane tank..super dangerous! Jacob at SavaTree was super responsive and moved his schedule around to take care of our issue. Upon inspection, we discovered another tree which had several dangerous danglers. Jacob added that to the job as well. The crew arrived on time and cleaned up all the dangerous limbs. They did a great job cleaning up! You would even know we had any issues! I 100% recommend SavATree! read more

Quality service all the way around from their rep Matthew to the crew leader Angel. They came out and got to work. Very satisfied. There was a few branches over some power lines they wouldn't cut so after the crew finished a supervisor came out took a look and explained why they couldn't cut them. Very good experience highly recommend. read more

Used to be a great, locally owned and operated shop, but they've since been acquired by a big nationwide firm with a terrible name. I'd prefer to support local businesses, so I'm no longer using or referring folks to Central Texas Tree Care (or, as they'll be known, SavATree). read more

Robert (Bob) Veron took great care in advising me in my American Elm tree after the January 2023 winter storm. As someone who takes tree care seriously I highly recommend Central Texas Tree Care and they will continue to be my go to for Tree Services. read more

Update to my previous post: Finally received the promised formal estimate via email three weeks after Mr. Johnson stopped by. Too late, I found another tree service to do the same scope of work which they completed the following day, at one half the price...And it wasn't five years ago when I contracted with Central Texas Tree Care, as I stated in my post, it was two years... read more

The tree crew was on time. Worked on all the details on the estimate and completed the work in 7 hours. (35 oak trees). Cleanup was very good. Price was excellent. read more

A couple trees to cut down and assorted trimming, Reasonable price. Professional, friendly, courteous team completed the work timely and cleaned the site when done. I certainly recommend for reliable and reasonable tree care. A couple minor points of constructive criticism, and to set your expectations. Communication could be better. Scheduled appointment time for consultation came and went. Called office and was told he was running late and would be on way soon. They should have called me. After signing and returning proposal, I had to call several days later to confirm they received and to get the work scheduled. This minor inconvenience was made up for in the actual work, but it's such an easy thing to improve. A little too aggressive collecting payment. Got email as soon as the crew arrived on site in the morning, announcing that my credit card was being charged. Would have much preferred a courtesy call when the work was complete to confirm that all was well and to finalize payment. Particularly since even the very best contractors vaporize into thin air as soon as they're paid. I suppose I kind of understand, I'm certain they've occasionally had trouble getting payment, it's just not customer service oriented. read more

I have been a long-time customer for years. I received an estimate to do a light trim 5 crape myrtles (not very big) and treat them for aphids using deep root fertilization. The total was close to $1000. I imagine the cost of them doing this 30 minute job is not worth that much. Joel has always been my go-to guy and I was shocked by the cost. I'll look for someone else as this is very expensive for minimal work. The deep root takes 2 minutes and certainly not an expensive product as they get it in volume. They are a good service but jacked up pricing. read more

Nope. Not just one bad seed. Several individuals from the company, from the person who was supposed to come out for a quote, to the manager who couldn't care less and didn't offer any solutions for the poor experience except to try to get me to get additional services, to the receptionists answering the phones. Only the legacy workers that were with the original Central Texas company were professional and courteous. Avoid the headache. read more

This business has been acquired and it shows. We were regular customers for many years. Really disappointed with what's happened and we have now moved on to anther local company. Received a very high quote to help repair our trees after the ice storm. The rep was very upfront - noted that the rates were 50% above standard as they were quoting the 'storm' rate which requires premium pricing due to staffing coming in from the Dallas area to complete the work. We were able to setup work with a local company with great reviews. They were able to complete the work quickly and at a fraction of the cost quoted by Central Texas Tree Care. read more

They came out next day to inspect a hackberry that had a giant branch fall down. Told me it would need to probably be taken down within the year but that another tree on the property was much more worrisome. Quoted about $2k for each tree to come down. They are both very big trees that I'll need a permit to remove, so seems like a reasonable price. I won't be using them just because I have a family member who can do the job. read more

I got three quotes for tree removal and trimming, and Central Texas Tree Care came in almost half of what their competitors offered. IT's a gamble to go with a bid so low, but they showed up on time, the crew was fast and very professional, and I think my yard looks awesome. I'll definitely call Central Texas Tree Care for future needs. read more

I have used Central Texas Tree Care on several occasions. I can't say enough wonderful things about this company. They are friendly, always on time, speedy, and respectful of your personal property and your personal space during Covid. Their quotes are always fair. a+++ read more

I have used Central Texas Tree Care for over 5 years now. We have 24 Live Oak trees on our lot and they are a blessing and a curse. Blessing because they are so beautiful and make our yard and home a wonderful place to live. The curse is when, in order to keep them looking good, you have to spend money to trim them. I have lived in my home in Round Rock for over 25 years and had the house built amongst all these trees. In fact the builder had to cut 13 trees down to build the house, but leaving 24 was just great. Over the years I have had a number of different groups trim them. From out of the back of their trucks not knowing how clean their saws are or how much they knew about trees to very professional arborist led tree services like Central Texas Tree Care. They provide free and accurate estimates that have not changed after the work was completed. They arrive when they say they will, all their crews are very knowledgeable, courteous and very customer focused. I have had three different crews come out at various times (my trees grow fast!) and they all have been good. Some of their people have been with them for over 10 years and some since they started about 20 years ago. This may not be important to some, but they all wear Central Texas Tree Service shirts, are very clean and they pick up every bit of debris in my yard, then they use a blower to remove any small particles. When they leave my yard is clean and they leave the trees looking very good. I recommend them and while they aren't as cheap as the back of the truck with a chain saw independent, they are very reasonable. Our neighbor across the street has used them for about 20 years. I didn't get smart until about 5 years ago and started using them too. Now at least 4 houses on our block (we have many trees in our development) use them as well. Give them a try and no, I do not work for them or are associated with them in anyway except as a very satisfied customer. read more

I've had Joel and crew come out for the past several years (10?) now. - They show up when scheduled. - They take care of the task at hand. - They clean up after themselves. They also ask questions while they are here and I do the same. Its no issue. You need to be on the same page when it comes to pruning trees/shrubs/etc that you will be left staring at. I used to put this work out to bid early on but have since quit doing so. Central Texas Tree Care has never let me down, I see no reason to shop this work around. read more

This is the third time I've had these guys come remove some trees for me, and it's the third time I've been 100% happy with their service! These guys are really amazing. On this trip, they had to remove a monster hackberry tree that was towering over both my and my neighbor's houses, and growing right against the fence. Andy took care of the permit from the city with no issues. Greg was foreman of the crew that came out, and he did an awesome job. The guys were so careful, it was amazing to watch them get it down without dropping it on the roof or damaging the fence. They blew off my roof, my driveway, raked all the limbs and leaves... There are less leaves in my yard now than when they arrived this morning! And Susan in the office is just the best person to talk with on the phone. I can't say enough nice things about this company. If you need trees removed or trimmed, call them. read more

Should be zero stars. As a previous reviewer stated "They used to be great." We used them many times and were very satisfied with the service and work. Now I called during the ice 2023 storm and they said they were booked until February 28. Well, February 28 came and went without a visit or even a phone call. I gave up after several unanswered calls. NEVER AGAIN! read more

Had lots of cracked and fallen tree branches after the big icy storm last week. Was not expecting their assistance so soon after I making the appointment. The crew was very freindly, experienced and organized. They worked with focus and precision to clean up the disaster in my rear yard. They also trimmed overgrown trees. Great to have my yard back! read more

I highly recommend Central Texas Tree Care. They were thorough, effective, respectful of my property and a much better value than I'd been quoted before. They sent 5-6 guys who obviously knew what they were doing. They'll be my go to company I'm the future. read more

Joel and his team were fast, efficient and professional when they showed up to do the job. We had some invasive trees inhibiting us from doing any fence work and he was able to come up with feasible and cost effective solutions. He made sure to clarify all trees Day of and explain the benefits of keeping certain trees. He even obtained the permit needed from the city for our dying/dangerous tree in the front. Would 100% recommend Central Texas Tree Care to anyone as they are the most informative, efficient and professional team out there. read more

We had Joel, one of the certified arborists on staff, swing by earlier this week to look at all of the trees on our property and give us a bid for tree trimming. He ended up providing tons of helpful information about how to best take care of our oaks and pecans to keep them healthy and happy. He then hopped in his car to run a quote and popped out a few minutes later with a printed bid. Fast forward three days and Joel and his crew arrived right on time this morning to get to work trimming the trees and removing a few holly bushes that had gotten out-of-control. The two guys who did the work were professional, very respectful of our yard and trees, and friendly. Shortly after the tree trimmers departed, the chipping crew arrived to break down the giant pile of branches and cart it off. No muss, no fuss. What originally seemed like it might be a hassle of a to-do item turned out to be a super-easy process from start to finish! read more

Another 5 star review for Andy Johnson and Central Texas Tree Care. We had a ginourmous unruly live oak tree in our back yard. The operative word is had. Andy provided a reasonable quote and timeline to prune this beast. As promised Andy and his crew arrived on time, verified what I wanted done, and got to it. A couple of hours later our beast was tamed as all the dead limbs were gone and the tree trimmed back to my satisfaction. Andy's crew checked in with me twice to ensure that they were meeting my expectations. Before they left they cleaned and raked up all the debris and blew off the entire deck. Lastly they cleaned up the street area in front of my home where they chipped up the branches. Great job and a highly satisfied customer! read more

Trees are on my list of animate objects that I love so a lot of time and care went into deciding on which company to entrust our tree to. I had called another tree trimming service for an estimate. However, it took the guy two days to get out here for a quote after calling the first day to say he wouldn't be able to make it. Frustrated, I called Central Texas Tree Service. They came out when they said they would for our estimate. Then, promptly emailed the estimate to me. Service was scheduled shortly thereafter. The whole process was painless. Two guys showed up on time for the tree trimming as I was on my way out. I told them to take great care of our tree bush. When I arrived back at home hours later, I was in awe. Could not stop staring at this glorious butterfly our tree bush had become. The trimming made our whole yard look put together and we were no longer, "those neighbors" on the block. What a complete makeover. I am in amazement at the transformation. Thanks Central Texas Tree Care. read more

Had a 70 year old Post Oak kick the can in the back yard, had 3 companies do assessments, all said the tree had to go, but Central Texas Tree Care could do it all diagnose, cut down, stump grind, & clean it all up like they never where there. I was very impressed that all traces of the Tree and it's debris were gone by 4p.m. With that mid day Texas sun kicking that work crew's ass and I'm telling you it's was a hot one. read more

Joel, the arborist for this outfit, came out and gave us a very detailed estimate, after coming out to inspect our trees. I've never had tree work done before, but I felt like the pricing was customer friendly. He even suggested we may want to do some of the easier work ourselves, but we chose to have them do it all. Great crew showed up and made short work of 20 trees in exactly two hours. They took down 7 cypresses and ground the stumps and cut back what looked like a tangled forest of overgrown trees. They haul away EVERYTHING they cut down and even sneaked off with a couple of limbs that had been drying out for weeks near our gate! Obviously that was the extra mile. They left no evidence that they were ever here, except for the beautiful trees. We will use them again and recommend them to everyone who asks. Thanks, guys. read more

We bought a home that hadn't had tree service in a number of years. The first tree service we had out trimmed but I didn't feel they were really knowledgeable. One of our trees appeared to be distressed. Javier assessed the tree, explained what he thought had happened, made recommendations and gave us confidence that our tree is going to be ok and drastic measures did not need to be taken. They will be our go to from here on out! Thanks Central Texas Tree Care!!! read more

I just had these guys out for the second time in two years. What a fantastic job! You forget how well your trees can look until you have them trimmed and Central Texas Tree Care does a hell of a job. Prior to the job, Andy came out and inspected all my trees and gave me advice for what needed to be done. The quote was fair and I got on the schedule. Yesterday they arrive on time, confirmed exactly what I wanted done, and got to work. They trimmed all the oaks and cleaned up my crepe myrtles as well as a few other smaller trees. After they were done, they mulched all the limbs and raked the entire yard which was much appreciated. If you're looking to have your trees look great, give these guys a call. read more

Customer for life! We'll be recommending Central Texas Tree Care to anyone that needs tree work. Andy and his team are true professionals. We had a large, diseased tree in our front yard. The experience was easy from start to finish -- quote, permits, scheduling the work, removing the tree, and grinding the stump. Specifically, for the stump removal, we worked with Javier who did a superb job. Very hard worker -- ground the stump well below the grade of the yard and hauled off a few thousand pounds of wood chips. Thank you!!!! read more

This was an awesome experience. They gave me a quote that matched my final price. No extras or BS. They also got it done in like two hours. It was quite the operation. Highly recommend. read more

HIGH QUALITY AND LOW PRICES !! I can't believe that Central Texas Tree Care is not booked a year in advance. They have certified arborists that come out to give free DETAILED estimates then the small team (much easier to communicate with and inspect the work as it's happening) comes out and does excellent & meticulous work just as the arborist & I discussed. read more

From my initial call to the end of the service, this company was great. They know what they are doing, have competitive pricing, and left my yard clean. They are great! read more

Great company - they were on time, had good pricing, and a very polite and professional crew. I am very happy with the work they did - my trees look amazing. They cleaned everything when done and worked super hard while here. I called 2 other companies - one had a quote that was very close to Central Austin but the guy was here for 5 minutes, looked at the trees, wrote some numbers onto a proposal and left. The other company rescheduled twice, was an hour late, and was twice the price! Joel, from Central Texas Trees, was the only guy who actually looked at the trees, spent time asking me what my expectations were, and made an effort to explain what the process would be. He handed me a printed quote and did not try and sell me other services. I highly recommend Central Texas Tree Care. read more

Central Texas Tree Care has performed three jobs for us. The first was an extensive pruning and tree removal effort. The second and third were removal jobs after trees fell on our roof. In each case, Central Texas Tree Care has priced fairly and worked with extreme efficiency. The company's arborist/estimator, Joel, seems like a genuinely good guy who cares about customer needs. It's a pleasure to use Yelp as a platform for praise instead of complaint. Central Texas Tree Care has earned our long-term business. Well done! read more

Central Texas Tree Care just finished triming my trees today. They came on time with the size of the crew they stated (8 people). They were here around 7 hours. Twice during their time here, and once before the crew left, their lead knocked on my door to have me look at their work. If there was an issue they wanted to resolve it as soon as possible not after they left. Only had one minor issue that they recified immediately. I will also note they did a good job of cleaning up. Hard to tell on the leaves as there are so many on the ground already but for the branches, twigs, and limbs I don't see any. I have no trouble recommending them and will certainly use them in the furture. read more

Still better than 5 stars! It was time for our Live Oak to get trimmed so we called Central Texas Tree Care. The Arborist came out, looked over the tree and gave us the cost for the work. Again the price was more than right and we scheduled the job. They arrived at the time promised and went right to work. With three workers it was very quick. Near the end of the job the supervisor asked us if we wanted any more trimming and gave us suggestions that made sense. In addition he noticed a branch on our near by Crape Myrtle and suggested it be removed. We agreed and at no extra expense he removed the branch. They again thoroughly cleaned up the yard and in the street around their chipper. In our opinion they're the best! read more

This is a terrific company. They were not able to schedule an appointment to meet my, no prior notice, timeline, so worked with me to find a company that could. Amazing customer service to send me to a competitor to make sure that my needs were met. Thank you so much! Please give them a try for any of your arborist needs. They will forever be my "go to" company in the future. read more

I saw great reviews for Central Texas Tree Care (512-973-9090) on Yelp and on NextDoor and thought I'd check them out. The owner (I think his name is Joel) got back to me promptly. It was really convenient that he could look at the tree, without me being there. After assessing the tree, he gave me a call, and was clear in the cost to remove the tree and how they would do it. He even pointed out that I had a small dead tree (which I hadn't seen before), that he could take down for no extra charge. Because their rates were competitive, they had great reviews, were very quick to respond, and they could get the job done sooner than later, I booked with them. I went by the property to check on the area before I sent them a payment, and was impressed with the work they did. They cleaned up and didn't leave any grooves or marks in the lawn from where they had worked. As it turns out, they had done work for me before! It was years ago and I couldn't remember the company's name, but they had me in their system, so I'm thrilled that I found them again. So yes, I'd use them again and can recommend them as an honest, reliable, efficient tree care company . read more

Decently priced quote. Decent trim job. Our grass has a little sun again! Won a customer by coming back to fix some branches that were still too close to the house quickly and cheerfully. They did a great job cleaning up after the trim as well. That even pulled out rakes to get the loose twigs and leaves. read more
