  • "5 stars every time."

    John and his team have done several jobs for us including the removal of some very large trees that were super close to our home. The service we have received has been 5 star every time. If you want the job done professionally at a fair price, call John at Telegraph Tree Services.

  • "His crew worked carefully."

    John was quick on getting out to us for a quote, at a fair price. We had our whole property trimmed up and a couple trees felled that were too close to the house. His crew worked carefully around the property and took away all the debris. We couldn't be happier with the work done. I highly recommend them.

  • "We highly recommend these guys."

    Thank you Telegraph Tree Services for taking down 4 Fir trees that were rotten and near power lines at our home in Cobble Hill. John climbed our trees in the middle of the big wind and rain storm this past week to help us. He felled the trees beautifully within the yard without knocking down our fence or my lovely daffodils.

    They cleaned up the aftermath which is huge! You guys are the best! We highly recommend these guys.

    Cheryl Howard | Homeowner

  • "Professional, safe, on time."

    Thanks John and team, I can’t say enough good things about the job you did. Professional, safe, on time and most of all you cleaned up like you were never there. Thank you so much I will be sure to tell everyone.

  • "Professional and fair with his quote."

    Tip of the hat to John, who handled trimming a few of our 50 plus trees. He was professional and fair with his quote. He was punctual and got the job done on time. Highly recommended and will use John again in the future.
