All reviews for Droege Tree Care, Inc.

Droege Tree service is a super company. It’s easy to make appointments, the staff is extremely helpful and the teams who do the work are friendly and fast. My extended family has been Droege customers for more than 30 years and I wouldn’t consider going to anyone else.

This was my first time using Droege and I was really pleased. They did a fantastic pruning of our front yard tree...it looks so much better! Very professional and friendly staff.

I have been using Droege Tree Care since 2020-2021. I was referred to them by Pretty City Gardens & Landscapes which has installed native plant pollinator gardens in my front and back yards. Droege has already planted four native trees for my front and back yards - which are thriving - with another three-four native trees to be planted in Spring 2023. The Droege Tree Care staff, arborist and crew have always been courteous, professional, knowledgeable, efficient and responsive. I'm so glad Pretty City referred them...and so are my trees!

Droege Tree Care is such an excellent tree company. They did exactly what I wanted. I even cancelled having them cut down a tree. But when I needed them to grind up the stomp after the tree was cut down, I personally did, they came and did an excellent job. They are patient. The prices for tree service are very reasonable. I would definitely call them again.

Colleen has always been very helpful whenever we have tree questions. The staff who comes to take care of the needed tree care are professional, fast and clean. We highly recommend them if you have any questions on your trees.

They also do a fine job of general landscaping. What I admire the best about Droege Tree service is the professional feed back I get regarding the plant in general. Tips on care of the plant or tree gives me the chance to be part of the growth and stability of the tree or plant. They are always ready to offer advice about what would be a good choice for the area in question. Their teams are always ready to install plants and mediums in such a way that the plant/tree will grow and prosper.

Droege Tree Care did a fantastic job of removing an oak tree in our front yard that was growing into the power lines. They were very professional and did an excellent job of cleaning up everything afterwards. I would definitely use their services again.

Droege Tree Care made replacing an old dying tree easy. They had a fair bid at the start. They communicated with me during the winter. March came, so Droege Tree Care came out and within hours, I had my old tree gone and new one in its place. Watering instructions were included from April until October.

Droege Tree Care, from quote to clean up, were great. Received quote within 36 hrs of walking the job. The work was performed in a professional manner and the crew did a fantastic job of cleaning up.
I could not be any happier with my experience with Droege Tree Care and recommend them highly for any work you may need.

We love our trees, which means we love Droege. Colleen is hugely knowledgeable and we appreciate that she pays her crews a decent wage. Droege will probably not be a low bidder on a job, but they won't be the highest either. We consider them great value as they're professional and qualified. St. Louis can be really rough on trees, so if you value yours we highly recommend Droege. The last batch of trees that Droege planted for us are just wonderful.

To add an update: this review should have been posted a couple of years ago. Everything tree and bush that Droege has planted for us is still thriving, and this after the drought of summer 2025. These folks really know how to plant something so that it survives. And if for some reason it doesn't, Colleen makes it right. Droege is one of the best small businesses in St Louis.

Droege tree does great work! They are very knowledgeable about trees and their care. All the workers are very professional and work very carefully and clean up everything. They also call and let you know exactly when they will be there. I trust them with my most special trees.

Great service, competitive price. The only drawback is scheduling - they get booked up pretty quickly and the wait can be long. But overall, I was very happy with their estimate, the recommendation and the crew that came to do the job.
Colleen (the owner) explained everything regarding my tree in a clear and educational manner, and did not try to push unnecessary services. Instead, she recommended the minimum for the tree to thrive, and a long-term care plan to prevent future issues - which on the long run will save me money and assure I can keep my tree as long as possible. Ashley (the office manager) was responsive and kind.
It's nice to see a woman-owned and operated business thrive! I recommend them for your tree care needs. They certainly made a loyal customer with me.

All my interactions with Droege Tree Care were positive. We did our deadwooding in the Fall and planted 4 trees in the Spring. It's a pleasure to deal with kind professionals who care about their work. Very much appreciate Colleen's expertise to choose species and locations for new plantings. Also appreciate Giovanni's experience and hard work. I recommend them!

Droege spent all day in our yard doing some extensive work to many of our trees including shaping, dead wooding, and storm damage clean up. Everything they did was perfect. They arrived when scheduled, informed us of details, answered our questions, and cleaned up when they were finished. We couldn’t be happier with their work and have finally found a tree care company that we can stay with for many years to come. Thank you to Colleen and her crew!

We were very pleased with their work and their very reasonable pricing structure. The on site crew was very professional and easy to communicate with. The work was completed as requested and they cleaned up the area like nothing had even been done! Very pleased with Droege Tree Care!! Check them out.

I was very impressed with the crew from Droege Tree Care. A 5 person crew arrived on time. They were all very friendly and serious about getting the job done. Three trees cut, shredded and removed. It was a windy day so they went up the street to clean the chips that blew up the street. When they left everything was clean. They did a great job.

Excellent service. Great job on the trees. The men who did the job were friendly and cared about our yard, the place was immaculate when they left, even blew leaves off the garage roof and the yard, took all the branches. They took apart a part of the fence to bring in equipment and took great care to put the wooden fence back in almost better shape than it was in before. Easy to talk to. They knew what they were doing and did it. I am very pleased with the results. The price was reasonable and the folks in the office were available if we had questions. The timing taking down the electricity was minimized.

We have used Droege Tree Care for several years. The team has a diverse array of skills and knowledge sets-including certified arborists, tree maintenance and removal specialists, etc. Everyone you interact with-starting with the front office-is professional, friendly, and makes you feel like a valued customer. You always receive lots of information to inform your decision about various solutions to your project(s) as well as solid estimates for the cost of the job and when it will be completed. The crew always provides a quality job and leaves the job site very clean. It's easy to become a loyal customer and you also are helping to support a local business. Thanks, Droege!

Last summer I had an issue with large branches falling off my backyard tree whenever we had storms. Colleen, the arborist for Droege, is very knowledgeable and assessed what needed to be done with the tree, as well as a branch from another that was growing around my power lines. They came out and did a great job. And when there was an issue with my invoice, they resolved it without any fuss or dispute. Droege came recommended to me by my partner Dana, and I would recommend them to anyone as well.

We have used Droege for over 20 years. Their arborist Colleen is practical and very knowledgeable. Her instructions to the crew were followed to the letter.
The crew was amazing and paid great attention to detail. We trust Droege with our landscape care.

I’ve had nothing but great experiences with Droege Tree Care. Coleen is incredibly knowledgeable and so personable. She takes the time to come and look at whats going on, and patiently explains what and why something needs to be done. The people who actually come and do the work in the trees are just as nice and patient. And they are knowledgeable also. The work is excellent. And the office manager is just as wonderful.
