Dead or damaged trees are more than an eyesore, they are a problem waiting to happen. In Kalamazoo, the mix of large hardwoods and unpredictable weather creates real safety and property risks when a tree is weak, diseased, or fully dead. Heavy snow, high winds, and saturated ground can turn a compromised tree into a … Read more

Super impressed with Tree Fellers. They did a great job with some tree work I needed done. Very professional, thorough, friendly, and fairly priced. I will definitely be using them again for future tree service.

Tree Fellers removed several trees and stumps. They were able to get the job done well shortly after providing an estimate.

This is the third or fourth time we’ve used TreeFellers, and they are my go-to for any tree needs. The owner, Jack, is so easy to work with, offers fair prices, and is an all-around good human. Our crew today (Alex, Eric, and a third gentleman) were extremely professional, polite, and tidy. (I think they cleaned up better than I would have!) Highly recommend!!

Tree Fellows was very accommodating and communicated great with me regarding date for the tree trimming. All 3 guys were great that came out. Eric, the tree climber, did a great job especially since he is relatively new to the position. They cleaned up after their job meticulously and even helped with blowing some leaves to the street. I would highly recommend them.

I reached out to Tree Fellers when my usual tree service stopped providing good customer service/pricing. I had an unexpected/last minute need for tree removal and holes dug to transplant fruit trees from my greenhouse before Michigan winter hit us for real. Jack/Isiah and their team helped me coordinate this project for a much better price and responded promptly/professionally to my questions and need for adjustments to the work. The crew was polite and respectful, and dig a great job in some nasty weather! I highly recommend this company, especially if you need something random done in conjunction with tree service like I did. They saved me thousands of dollars that I would have had to spend with a different landscaping company to get my fruit trees moved.

Tree Fellers did a very professional estimate and limb removals of a tree that fell into our neighbor’s yard. They even cut up some of the limb so we could use it for our fireplace. Nice work!

a huge pine tree fell during a recent wind storm. called tree fellers and within a couple of days had Isiah come and give me a quote and within a couple of days the tree was cleaned up. They have a very hard working crew and would hire them again in a flash. did an excellent job in cleaning up and very thorough.

Saw Tree Fellers doing some storm cleanup in the neighborhood and they had the equipment to take down a tree that I had growing over my garage that had destroyed the gutter and was threatening the roof. I gave them a call and they got me on the schedule. There was a lot of storm damage in the area, so it took a few weeks to get to me, but when they showed up they were clean and efficient. They even cut up some of the trunk into smaller lengths so I could split them for firewood and cleaned up everything else. Highly recommended.

Tree Fellers is an amazing company. We had multiple trees fall due to storm damage. They were at our house within 24 hrs to give us a quote. Trees were removed quickly after. They are fast, professional, and affordable! Highly recommend them.

Jack spent a good 45 minutes with me on my property surveying the storm damage, taking photos and videos, and talking me through the damage, the remediation process and educating me on what to expect with an insurance claim. So VERY thorough! Gave a VERY competitive price too! Excellent customer service. Jack is THE REAL DEAL!

We received expert work and great service from this company. They are our "go to" people for this type of work in the Kalamazoo area. Their very polite and knowledgeable workers do the job right and totally clean up everything when done! We highly recommend them to all our friends.

I have used Tree Fellers on two separate occasions now. They are fast to respond, reasonably priced, and have always gone above and beyond in the quality of the work they do, PLUS they always seem to do "bonus" tasks, cleaning extra debris and other random acts of customer service. Most recently they realized a broken limb was resting on my roof so made sure to move me to priority scheduling. Easy to work with, great quality!

The price and the work is unparalleled. The hey did the job in a few hrs and worked on a Saturday to ensure it was completed. While on the job they took down a few more trees at not cost to make sure the job looked nice and complete. I will have them back again

Harold and crew took down a large maple tree today, in my back yard. They were very professional, and were very careful in their work. We enjoyed watching the process, and were impressed with their skills! There were no problems encountered during the removal, all went well! They were very accommodating, even removing a limb on another tree that was not included in the original work request! And the cut the wood to a length I requested, as I kept most of the wood. A friendly group of highly skilled guys who did a great job on cleaning up the yard after all the cutting. Money well spent, thank you for a great job!

Clayton and his team did a beautiful job removing multiple large branches and trees in my yard, as well as clearing away downed branches and several brush piles. Some of the situations required very skilled handling and creative solutions. Clayton clearly really knows what he's doing and is very good at it. He and his team worked hard. They were competent, efficient, thorough, respectful, and considerate. To protect sensitive areas, they had to haul everything out by hand, which they did without complaint. If you're debating, don't hesitate to work with them. I would definitely work with them again.

During the recent storms with strong winds, a large tree uprooted. My insurance agent warned me about price gouging and I think I did witness that, based on some of the quotes I received. Tree Fellers did not price gouge. Their price was significantly less than the other quotes I received. They removed the tree, filled in the hole and cleaned up. Very happy with their service and recommend them 100%.

It was an amazing experience hiring Tree Fellers to handle my tree removal. Jack is very fair and awesome to work with. I had 2 very big trees and a medium sized tree I needed removed as well as their stumps, 3 additional stumps and limbs from 3 different neighbors property hanging over my home and garage. They handled what I would consider a dangerous job with ease showing how professional and skilled David and his crew really are! These guys worked as a team, being super communicative, and working around problems with a great attitude. They definitely went above and behind leaving my property as clean as possible. I’d recommend this company to any and everybody, I plan on doing more business with them in the near future.
