We have been in business since 2002. I named the business after my first-born son, Parker. (We are not from Parker, CO). As the owner operator, I'm a perfectionist by nature and that reflects in my work. Whether it is customer service, showing up to appointments on time, doing the work as expected, or leaving job sites better than when we arrived; my employees have also been trained to represent my standards.
We have nearly zero waste from our business. We accumulate mulch and firewood as bi-products of our work. For nearly a decade we have given free mulch and firewood to the public. We have given away countless tons of primium mulch and primium firewood away. It is a win-win situation for us and the public. We have never taken any bi-product to a dump site.

Great experience! I contacted several tree services in the morning, and a few hours later I had a quote from Parker - they Googled the address and could clearly see the tree in question, and provided a firm price based on that. So they didn't even have to come out When they provided the quote, they also said there was a possibility they could take care of it at the end of the work day (that same day), since it was a relatively small job. They were able to fit us in that afternoon. In fact, they came out and removed the tree before I heard back from any of the other providers I had contacted. They did a great job. Took about 30 minutes, and they cleaned up after themselves. I asked if they could leave us the trunk and large branches to cut up for firewood; they did that at no extra charge, even cutting the logs into manageable lengths and putting them behind the fence for me. It was an excellent experience, all around.
Description of Work: Removed a 25-foot Ash tree from the front of the house and removed the stump. It was $185 for removal of the tree, $65 for grinding the stump. They contract out the stump grinding, so that was done at a different time from the tree removal.

I had two estimates, and the most affordable and timely was from Parker Tree Service. They were wonderful at communication and got back to me within a day of me contacting them. Responsiveness was fantastic and professionalism on site was great as well. I wasn't able to be at home for most of the tree trimming and when I returned I could barely tell they had been there, debris-wise, but the large apple tree they trimmed for me looked great. They also trimmed up a box elder in my backyard that was sagging after checking in with me about it and I appreciated the care they took to make sure we were all on the same page regarding work and cost. There were no surprises and my trees were well taken care of. I would hire their services again.
Description of Work: Extensive trimming and shaping of my large apple tree (which hadn't been trimmed in years) as well as minor trimming up of my small box elder.

Jamin's scheduler returned our initial phone call immediately, and he arrived to analyze the situation himself. His bid was carefully itemized and included a packet of information about tree care as well as copies of his liability insurance and worker's comp. coverage (we did not even have to ask for the latter, and any customer ought to verify insurance information for work that has the potential to be quite dangerous). We set up an appointment for Jamin and two of his crew members to perform the work soon after obtaining the bid. They showed up as scheduled, did the work efficiently, and cleaned up every last branch before leaving. We will certainly call this company again in the future. Even if you've worked with other licensed arborists in Longmont, I recommend calling this company for a comparative bid. I think you will be as impressed as we were. This man knows how to run a business in a first-rate, professional way.
Description of Work: We have a very old and very large elm tree in our yard that was overdue to trimming, including removal of some large dead limbs (some of them very high up). We contacted three different companies for estimates, and Parker Tree Service was easily the most professional.

From the time I met Jamin, and he spent time with me explaining the estimate, till they finished removing one of my large cottonwoods, and pruning another one of my trees I found Parker Tree Service to be very professional. I actually took off the day and observed the entire process of the tree removal, which as i expalined previously was watching a well oiled machine at work. From watching Jamin go up and cut off very large sections of the tree, to watching the crane dropping the tree, and his workers piece it out, and put itt through the shredder was amazing. Everyone in his crew was friendly and very accomodating when I asked questions. When Jamin returned later in the day he pruned the third tree of my estimate. When they finished they cleaned up my location. My experience with Parker Tree Service was very positive and I would usethem again, and would highly recommend them.
Description of Work: Jamin and his crew showed up on time, I had a large cottonwood removed. This particular tree was up against my fence, and just like Jamin had told me, he cut the tree at the base of the stump and the crane removed it. His crew worked like a well oiled machine, and his estimate of time spent at my location was spot on He then according to his estimate, was going to prune our third tree, but explained to me he had another job to do with the crane. When Jamin realized he was going to be running long with the other job he contacted me and left a voicemail that he would be back later in the day to finish the job. True to his word, he showed up late in the afternoon to finish pruninig and thinning the third tree. That tree looks great! It really has changed the look of my property. I would highly recommend Parker Tree Service, and actually have, to three of my co-wokers.

This is the second time that Parker has trimmed a tree for me and the team was courteous and efficient and they cleaned up after the work very thoroughly. When I asked him, one fellow was kind enough to give me an opinion on a landscaping job that another contractor had done. He gave me very useful information. I will call them for future tree work.

Jamin was very prompt and professional in setting up the estimate appointment, returning calls and emails. He brought an information folder to the estimate and answered all my numerous questions. He is very knowledgeable and personable. I felt confident that he knew a lot about trees and their care. The cottonwood tree was trimmed the way he described it would be and the crew did a great job cleaning up. I am using Parker Tree Service for winter trimming of a crab apple tree and will use them for future tree services.

Great,Just great. could not have been happier.
Description of Work: We have used Parker Tree Service in the past so when our aunt needed a very old, very large ash tree removed we called Jamin for an estimate. When our aunt was ready she called Jamin and the removal was scheduled for the next tuesday. The tree removal went great. My aunt was fascinated during the entire process. When the tree was down she kept commenting on how well the area was cleaned up. Jamin met bid, no additional charges the job was finished. There is only one word that comes to mind for Parker Tree service, Professional We have had Jamin on take down two evergreens and trim our apple tree. The apple tree was looking bad the next spring it was just beautiful. There is a big difference between cutting limbs off a tree and trimming it.

Jamin was top rate in the services provided. While he was a little more expensive then other quotes I received he came across as very professional so I trusted him with our business. I could provide lots of detail like how they stacked firewood and cleaned up well, but I'll simply say that I'll be having him back for any future work we have done. That is the strongest endorsement I can provide.

This job was well explained, estimated exactly and performed perfectly. Reponse for the estimate was same day, the agreed upon shedule was kept, the job was done exactly as explained and the bill was as predicted. I spoke with several services before hiring Parker Tree Service. Jamin Parker is the most professional, the most suited to his job, and has the best method of removal, and hands-down had the best attitude about providing what I wanted up front. He brings a crane, a fit crew, a huge mulching truck and trailer to the site. He is willing to set the mulching apparatus to a landscape-grade and leave high quality mulch behind. Amazingly - most services act put out if you ask for landscape grade mulch from your own tree. His crane is over 100' and provides easy access to trees without having to get right next to them, and each limb is lowered to wherever it is easiest to work on and clean up and not allowed to shatter on the ground or create debris. His crew was carefully selected and closely managed. He put the mulch where I wanted it. The job was all done in just a few hours and I had nothing to do to follow up or prepare for this job other than give access to the vehicles as needed. In addition the man was personable and had great customer relations skills. As a Realtor I look for this kind of talent to refer to my local. My do-it-yourself neighbors were a bit jealous of my experience. I highly recommend this service and will be trying him out on some pruning tasks on other trees.
Description of Work: Removal of mostly dead 72" diameter cottonwood from back yard and deposit of two piles of landscape grade mulch in two different location on the property, and complete cleanup of all debris and removal of trunks.

They arrived promptly, even a little early, which was fine with me as it took 5 hours at least to do all the work and clean-up. The Austrian pine looks gorgeous now - you can actually see its shape and appreciate it much more! They pruned the spruce at no extra cost, as it hadn't been on the list to do, but came up in discussion. They cleaned up beautifully - our driveway that had been covered with limbs and trunks and leaves was spotless.
Description of Work: They took out 3 aspens that were dieing, trimmed up other aspens, cut lower branches of towering spruce next to driveway, and cleaned up a huge Austrian pine that had never been pruned!

This was the second time I had used Parker Tree service. Very professional, highly knowledgable. Arrived on time for the estimate and the work. I thought the work was first rate at a fair price. I won't even bother to quote anyone else the next time I need some pruning done.

I was very pleased with their service and responsiveness. They were not the cheapest bid but Jaman's willingness to meet me in person for the bid and explain to me in detail how to approach a tree trim and show me documentation of workers comp insurance as well of a list of certified arborists in my area made me most confident that he would trim my tree well. We did have a misunderstanding of what would be included in the bid as I was hoping to keep the wood from the trim and use it as firewood, but I think we both saw how the misunderstanding arose and he graciously went with my take on the matter.

We had a 50 ft Cottonwood tree between our house and our neighbor's house and it died this year. After getting bids as high as $3200.00 for removal and stump grinding we went with Parker Tree Service and they were excellent. Their bid was by far the most complete and impressive: list of references, copy of insurance, detailed explanation of the removal process and the crane that they use to remove the cut pieces, and explanation of stump grinding process complete with photos. Their bid came in the middle of three others. They were very professional, punctual, and priced well. Would definitely use them again.

I was happy with the job they did 3 years ago so I had them come back for this work. They did a fabulous job this time and it was a major operation. He got into that trees and lowered the branches down as he couldn?t drop anything so it took him a long time. He took the tree down in several sections and once he de-limbed the whole thing he dropped it exactly where he was supposed to. He didn?t have any room for errors. It was done with great precision. It was a top notch professional job done. I think that price was absolutely the best I could get.
Description of Work: They cut and trimmed a few trees about 3 years ago. Recently I had them take out a really huge 80 foot spruce that was in front of my house.

It went great - when I called Jamin and told him that I wanted to hire him for the work he arrived the next day and completed the job in about 6 hours. He provides a packet that explains the techniques he will use to take care of your trees, whether it be trimming or removing them. They also use a belay device to lower limbs to the ground instead of letting them drop and ruin your lawn.
Description of Work: Jamin, the owner and operator of Parker Tree Service, came out and gave us an estimate on cleaning and thinning our severely overgrown trees. I couldn't afford to do all the work that needed to be done so I had a large Ash tree cleaned up and 3 smaller trees removed.
