About us

Ed Gilles, the founder of Paul Bunyan Tree Service (PBTS) never knew he would grow a summer job into his own business. After a few years working for another company, he decided he would invest in his own tree service. Jeanette, his wife, thought it was crazy to spend their entire savings on the business. However, after the first year they realized it was their niche and legacy to build. They have two kids, Bryan and Brenda, who have also made this business opportunity possible. 27 years experienced tree company, professional tree climber, ISA Arborist on staff. Small company but get big results.

From the start, they offered very helpful advice. They did quality work and it was surprisingly quick and efficient. They took cleaned up and took all the debris with them. They went above and beyond our expectations.

See above.
Description of Work: A tall tree (some type of willow) in our back yard was struck by lightning and needed several large branches cut down as soon as possible so it wouldn't fall on our neighbor's shed and into their yard. We called several tree services, listed in our local paper (before we joined Angie's list!), however, since it was the Saturday of the July 4th weekend, many did not return the call until Sunday or Monday. Paul Bunyan Tree Service (a husband and wife team) called within a couple of hours and came over the same afternoon. They had to use the back boulevard off the highway to get to the tree and also had to work around our wooden fence. As he cut the branches, his wife carried them to a shedder/chipper. They were courteous and cleaned up the area nicely when they were finished. The estimate over the phone was $450 but was raised to $485 when they saw the actual tree. The cost of tree cutting is expensive but I don't think we could have gotten it cheaper from any other service.

This company is run by a husband and wife team, and they personally did all of the work. They were professional, on time, and completed all of the work in one day. We would definitely hire them again!
Description of Work: We have a backyard full of VERY tall Box Elder Trees. We had one tree completely removed (less the stump), and many large and small branches trimmed off of approximately 8 other trees. All of the trees required climbing to remove the many branches. They also cleared away all of the small branches, along with cutting and stacking the bigger logs in our backyard (this was per our instructions).

I hired someone to remove a tree. They said they would chop it down to fireplace sized logs but it would take a hell of a fireplace to take these logs; five people could sit on these pieces. Paul Bunyan came in and finished the job. They were very good; they were personable and they didn?t waste time. They came in, did the job, handed me a bill, I paid it, and that was it. The price was cheap.
Description of Work: Paul Bunyan’s Tree Service ground down a large stump.
