The Urban Foresters

Professional, on time, great service and competitively priced! They trimmed and raised the canopy on my two trees leaving a nice shape to them. Yard was cleaned afterwards like they were never there.

They were very good. They did the work in 2 visits. They were very tidy, very efficient, and very nice to deal with.

Chris was very professional on the phone and came out to take a look without a service charge. He treated the trees and trimmed them to raise the canopy, something that hasn't been done in years and was really needed. They have a low annual cost for fertilization winterizing and he will come out in the spring without having to call him. Highly recommended. Great Service

Victor and his crew did a good job. I was very pleased with everything they did.

Chris was excellent to work with. Prompt, efficient & professional. Came out on-time for estimate appointment & along with taking detailed notes on what I wanted done, he evaluated my trees and gave me helpful information & tips to make them healthier. He told me in detail how they would shape and prune my trees and palms. Received computer estimate same afternoon as appointment. Estimate late Wednesday afternoon, trimming done early Friday afternoon, within 48 hours of initial appt. Trimmers were very professional, neat and pleasant to work with. Excellent cleanup. Trees and palms look great and I will definitely use Urban Foresters again. A neighbor across the street was so impressed with their work that she had them trim up a very old tall tree of hers in her front yard after they finished mine.

Perfect. Arrived on time, worked hard and steady until the job was done. Super clean up. Not the cheapest, but best tree service we have used. Chris was super to work with, excellent communications, very professional.

I was very pleased. They did a great job.

I contacted The Urban Foresters from a special on Angie's List. I spoke to Jacob, I think he is one of the owners, and explained my problem. I had a dead tree in the front yard which needed to be removed and also I was worried that one of the large live oaks in my yard was sick. Jacob came out right away and gave me an estimate. I was very relieved when he told me that there was no problem with the oak tree. The company completed the tree removal and stump grinding on schedule and I was not asked to pay anything until the service was completed. I am extremely happy with this company and will be using them again for all my tree service. I also received a discount for being an Angie's List member.

We had Urban Foresters trim six live oaks. Chris Ochoa was extremely helpful in determining the extent of the trimming. They did a great job. Fast, efficient and did an excellent job of cleaning up.

I had a palm tree that looked sick and had Chris, the arborist, take a look. His diagnosis was that it looked okay and did not charge me for coming out. They seem honest and fair so I plan to use them when I need them.

We had two large trees causing significant damage to our house and driveway which drove our initial quote request. I later decided to avoid having to pay additional mobilization costs in the future and increased the project scope to address pretty much every single tree-related issue on the property (since I had a crew on-site anyway). Chris was professional, responsive, and politely tolerant of my early indeciveness as I kept revising the scope of the project (I'm sure they like the extra work, but it must create issues with their crew scheduling when a scheduled project keeps expanding in scope). Once the work started, the crew was incredibly fast and efficient - and didn't slow down, even while working incredibly long days (it was a three day project, and Day 2 was almost a 12-hour day). Besides for being a great bunch of guys to talk to, the crew went above and beyond - they were working simultaneously with a separate paving crew I had working at the same time, and they even re-arranged some of the work they were doing in order to address things that would have otherwise created bottlenecks on the paving project. On top of all that, the job was not easy - very large trees in very tight spaces - and the crew brought everything down safely and without damaging anything on the ground; and the trees they trimmed look fantastic - I've already received a few comments from the neighbors. I can't recommend this company highly enough!

Jacob Rodriguez was a pleasure to work with. Out of all the companies that gave estimates, Jacob was one of the few who walked the property with me and pointed out the best way to get rid of dead wood, allow more sunlight, etc. without hacking away important limbs to keep the trees healthy. The estimate was very fair, middle-of-the-road but I felt like they knew their stuff more than the others. Only had to wait a week for the actual work to be done after we chose their quote. The crew was meticulous with removal of only dead wood and dangerous limbs. Raised the canopy over 10 feet, which has let a lot of sunlight in and helped our lawn. They even removed the "suckers" on the mature limbs so they now look incredible. It took them all day, but I didn't mind because they were taking great care instead of just hacking away. I highly recommend their services and will be a repeat customer every 2 years or so.

Tree looks healthier than it ever has. I am impressed what a couple of weeks can do.

The experience was excellent. They are really professional and do their job. They put cones up so the tree limbs don't damage anything on the ground. This company comes when it is supposed to and clears all of the debris away very thoroughly. For doing all this the price was very reasonable.

The Urban Foresters is great. They're very good. They know their trees, always on time and we have been very pleased with them. They know their trees which was very important to me because I have trees in the backyard full of them, trees that are particularly large. They really know what they're talking about and they know how to cut the trees correctly.

The experience went very well. They did a fantastic job. They really know their trees. They are more like arborists. Their price was extremely reasonable. They were extremely professional, and they really knew what would make the trees healthy, and they didn't just want to go there and cut the trees.

Jacob came to discuss with me, what we want to get done and understood our problems very well. He gave me a fair quote and scheduling an appointment was easy. His team came on time and did a great job, they knew exactly what I wanted! They were freindly and respectfull, cleaned up everything properly and left me happy. I will definitely hire them again.

They did a great job. Crew was great too.

I have several very old and very large oaks, and I trust them completely in the care of The Urban Foresters - whether for seasonal feeding or pruning.

They are flawlessly professional and the work is immaculate.

Contacted through Angie's list & they quickly (Saturday night no less) responded to my request giving me a single-point-of-contact name and cell phone for me to set up my estimate and talk through my needs with. Very nice. We communicated and they came out to provide a bid. Noted that my trees were Ash & not oaks (not intended as a test, but glad they noticed). Their bid was not the lowest, but not the highest either. No services done yet.

It went very good with The Urban Foresters. They worked for our neighborhood, I'm a board member and they've also worked for me personally in my own yard so I used them numerous times. They're very good. They're going to come out shortly again for some bark trees so we really like them.

Seemed like they would be of help with a sick tree in front yard. Guess we are not Urban enough in Oak Forest. Typically, an email reply to say you cannot provide the service would be the way to go. Yet nothing.

Extremely well. This company exceeded my expectations. I've had several quotes and work in the past on the large Water Oak and they are competitively priced, fully insured and thorough. I dealt with Jacob Rodriquez who was very customer service oriented demonstrated by his listening skills and responsiveness. I would recommend them to anyone.

I thought they were knowledgeable versus someone just cutting. They were professional. They came on time and did the work they were there to do and removed all debris.
