Johl Anderson and his crew are outstanding. Clean cut, professional, polite, they did an excellent job of removing a tree that was threatening our house. They are so knowledgeable about trees and their care, and did a great job of clean up as well as taking down the tree quickly and efficiently. I would recommend them without reservation.

We have nothing but awesome things to say about the work done by Green bird Horticultural. From the get go, Johl was professional and helpful. Gave great suggestions in order to save trees and give us a better understanding of what to do moving forward. The crew showed up to remove two trees and were polite and professional as well. The work done over two days was done efficiently and carefully in order not to do any damage to our home or property which was much appreciated. Will use GBH again in a heartbeat.

On three visits to my home to correct trees that needed pruning, Johl and his employees did a wonderful job in making the trees safer and also more attractive. His knowledge of what was needed in that regard is impressive I also was happy with the clean up leaving everything in great shape.

Johl and his team did a wonderful job thinning out the canopies and cutting down tree limbs in peril of falling on my roof. He contacted Hydro and made sure they trimmed back all the branches close to the hydro lines which I have been trying to get accomplished for a year! Great service!

The crew was very professional. They did a fantastic job of cutting my tree down, and removing all of the branches. The area was left neat and tidy. The only negative thing I could say, is that it took over 2 months to get them here. Im still very happy with the job and would still highly recommend this company.
