But is our tree service in Lancaster and York, PA, right for you? Just read this review from one of our thrilled customers:

“I highly recommend Doug’s Tree Service. We had a very old willow tree, 5′ diameter trunk, that fell during a storm. Doug’s was quick to get us a quote and quick with their scheduling. They were very reasonably priced, cheaper than two other quotes I received.

Now to the work done: thorough, professional, and incredible! A crew of 3 gentlemen worked efficiently together, and we were impressed with the level of coordination and trust in each other they showed. From arrival to driving away, they only took 2 hours, thanks to their skill, professional equipment, and teamwork. They removed every bit of the fallen tree, and went beyond to clean up the collateral damage to other trees next to it.

Their final cleanup was thorough and particular, leaving the area looking professional and clean. The tree had smashed our shed, and they took the time to use a front-end loader to group the shed remnants into one area to make our next cleanup steps easier. Since we were home, they also stopped for a quick chat of advice at the end.
Everyone I spoke with, from Lori during scheduling to each of the crew members, was friendly, courteous, and positive. Again, highly recommended!”

We recently moved to Mount Joy and one big plus about our home was the tree line and associated shrubs on our property. After living here a few months, we decided to thin out some large shrubs and also have six+ trees taken out on the edge of our lot. Doug came out to give me an estimate and I was pleasingly surprised at the cost estimate. Their crew came out once for the shrubs and small trees last month and then today for the large trees. I was extremely pleased with the skill and professionalism of the crew. Their equipment was awesome and that enabled them to remove the trees and debris in short order. Not only was the work done carefully and timely, but the cleanup was the icing on the cake. Doug's Tree Service guys really care about their work and they aim to really please their customer. I would have given them a six star review if I was able!

This crew is great! I have never worked with a company that was as efficient and as professional as Doug's tree services. They removed two trees and trimmed another and left nothing behind except what they did not have room for (it filled the mulcher/dump truck) BUT, they were here Sunday morning to clear the remainder and are now cleaning everything back up and blowing away the leaves and smaller debris. I got many quotes, all were approximately the same except one who was 3 times the amount, most of which also said they would destroy our newly installed flowerbeds. Not these guys, never heard that once. They did not hurt one bloom or branch of anything recently planted. We will call them again as we have a few more larger trees we do not want to tackle ourselves. I would recommend them to anyone that asks!
