Urban Tree Specialists

Exceeded my expectations in all areas. Quick, clean, kind and affordable. Removed a large dead tree in our front yard. They were considerate of our property and left it cleaner than when they arrived!

Urban Tree Specialists was one of the companies our landscaper referred us to. We also got a bid from another recommended company, but for even more extensive work Urban Tree Specialists was considerably lower in price. Listening to Nicholas Goergen and walking around the yard with him is an education in trees! Nick saw things that the other company didn't even notice. We had to reschedule the date due to a conflict, but that was handled quickly. They pulled up early in the morning on the new date with all their equipment—wood chipper, stump grinder, bobcat—and finished everything before the rain began. That included taking down 7 large trees (see attached photos of trees circled in red) and grinding their stumps, grinding about a dozen other large and small stumps or root clumps in the y

Contacted over two weeks ago for an estimate to remove two small dead tree's and asked for an evaluation of the rest of our tree's to determine if we needed trimming or if there were any issues with them. Estimate was fair and I accepted the quote for several of the tree's. I followed up several times...the scheduler told me "Nick is behind and will get back to you soon". Finally, after wasting two weeks, I get an email from Nick that our job is too small, it would be 8-10 weeks before they could do it, and I should look for another company. Wow. It would have been completely fine if I were told this two weeks ago. Communication is very poor.

I believe them to be competent in the field, however, not in their office. After paying my invoice, they continue to bill me, even after showing them my canceled check, made out to them,, with their endorsement on the back. That should have ended it but no. They claim they have no record of my deposit., but my bank clearly indicates the debit paid to Urban Tree. To this day, they still harass me. If you do business with this company, keep your records very well documented.

The owner, Bret, came to my house within just a few days of making an appointment to give me a bid. He’s a very friendly person and definitely knows everything there is about trees, shrubs, bushes, etc. Any question I had, he was able to answer immediately in terms someone who isn’t and arborists can understand. He also looked up different options for trees and shrubs that I could plant based on my property and soil while he was here and gave me a very detailed & fair quote for the job. I also received a follow up email with the quote and have scheduled their services as I have known people who are very happy with their services in the past. They are extremely backed up right now, but I will be adding follow up after the job is complete, though I have no doubt it will be done well. The te
