About us

John Richards established Tree Care Enterprises, Inc. in September 1978. John earned his Bachelor of Science Degree in Forestry from Michigan Technological University in 1977. Soon thereafter he started Tree Care Enterprises as a one man operation. A short time later Doug Edwards was hired. John and Doug are two of our seven Certified Arborists. Doug is now the Vice President in charge of operations. John Richards is still President and involved with running Tree Care on a daily basis. In 2007, Tree Care Enterprises, Inc. became a Tree Care Industry Association (TCIA) accredited company. This prestigious recognition is awarded to only the finest and most professional companies. We then created a safety position and formed an employee safety committee. In 2008, Kurt Weidner and Doug Edwards attended a Certified Tree Care Safety Program (CTSP) to support the companys commitment to continuing education and safety. This extensive program works with the companys training staff to develop safety and training programs for the current work force. This advanced training system will enable Tree Care Enterprises to employ a work force that has been properly trained in all aspects of the Green Industry. Worker safety, safe work zones and industry standards create the backbone of the current curriculums being developed. Both Kurt and Doug have worked in the Green Industry and have extensive experience in the emergency response field. From the beginning, Tree Care Enterprises, Inc. has operated on the basis that quality work from professional and knowledgeable employees would make us a successful company. We are growing and are now celebrating our 31st year in business!

Description of Work: Very nice people to work with...enjoyed their help and the work they performed...we needed one tree struck by lightning removed completely and five additional trees pruned and cutback. We will have them return in 2015 to help us once more...would recommend them to family and friends in the area. Very professional and they not only did a great job but cleaned up their work afterwards and were very polite and more than fair. We give them an "A+" rating.

Great overall job !!
Description of Work: We started using Tree Care several years ago to do spring clean up. They do an excellent job and we will continue to use them every year. They also cut down a few trees and ground stumps - another great job ! When here, the crew is professional and friendly, and work the entire time they are here until job is done. What takes us all summer to do in our yard, they have done in one day. I highly recommend Tree Care services.

I was really impressed about their emergency response and result. We paid $70. I think it is a fair price because we have 2 lots with sprinkler heads on both of them. They are very pleasant. They are prompt and professional. I am not familiar with what other people charge. We just stick with them because we can rely on them. We would use them again in the future. We are going to have them redo some underground sprinkler sizes and locations next year. We probably will not shop around. We will just go with them because we know they know what they are doing.
Description of Work: We used Tree Care Enterprises Inc a couple of weeks ago. They are located in Rockford, Illinois. They are also sprinkler people who do underground sprinkler systems. We had an emergency situation where the cable people charred a cable and put in a new cable for the neighborhood. We have 2 big lots together. They went straight through our lawn upfront and cut all our sprinklers' piping straight across the yard where it was up there. We needed to fix it immediately. They rearranged their appointments so they could send somebody right out. They also blow out our sprinklers every fall and all that. They also do installations. We use them every year.

They did not come out to treat my tree when they said they would; so they did the work for free when they did come out. They were very professional and knew what they were talking about. I will use them again in the future.

They are excellent. He walked through the property with us to inspect. They are very concise with the description of the work and provided us with a contract for us to review. They are timely, very knowledgeable, very professional, and then reschedule for phase two of the clean-up in the fall. This company has arborist on staff that knows about trees. I would absolutely use them again in the future.
