Tree reviews in Cincinnati, Ohio

Very friendly and thorough crew. They inspire confidence and trust in what they do. Tyler, Amari, Carl, and Zach are true pros.

Andy and his crew (Dylan and Shane) were also fantastic! Andy’s attention to detail and clear passion for doing a great job bled over to Dylan and Shane. The result? We have a great looking lawn that addressed some issues that we had but to most, will just appear as a new, fresh look. Andy seemed to go above and beyond to ensure that any expectation was exceeded. We have already recommended Gregory Forest to some friends and would recommend them to anyone that wants the best in landscaping and tree care.

Jared did a great service at my child's school. He was friendly, punctual, and considerate of the surroundings. We can't wait to have the kids utilize this great space.

I was extremely impressed with the work recently completed at our home by the crew from GFLI. Led by Brad W, the guys not only got the tree work done well & professionally, as one would expect; but I was shocked by how carefully they executed, so as to minimize the potential for property damage, and how thoroughly they cleaned up the work area, both as they went along and after they finished cutting. I’d gone into the event anticipating hours of cleanup on my part after they’d left; turns out Brad’s guys left nothing for me to do! I recommend them highly and will use them again. Worth every penny. Thanks!

Unbelievable professionalism, precision and efficiency. Our lot is tricky to maneuver with several tall, old trees but it wasn't a problem for the amazing crew.

Josh and his crew, Hunter, James and Jake, did a great job taking down a large maple tree in my front yard. I was amazed how quickly the tree came down and that the cleanup kept up with the pruning, so by the time the final cut was made, the site was clear.

The stump grinding took a bit longer but there were many surface roots to deal with. It took two trips to complete, but it was worth the effort.

All in all, nice job!

We consulted with Oliver, BCMA who is extremely knowledgeable, respectful, and generous with his time and precision to detail. He gave us final say in all the work done on our property without once making us feel pressured one way or another. Just by talking to Oliver you can tell how passionate he is about caring for his customers and their trees.
Brad’s crew worked on some of our favorite trees on our property. They did an excellent job trimming up our trees and thoroughly cleaning up afterwards. I really appreciated Brad to explain and check with me prior to making a big but needed cut to ensure I was comfortable with the cut. We are very happy with the product. As an added bonus they were all friendly and loved our dogs. (:
Overall, we are extremely satisfied with high quality service at a very fair price. We will be life long customers and highly recommend Gregory Forrest Lester, Inc for all of your tree needs.

****I would like to thank Gregory Forrest Lester team for their help and especially Oliver for his expertise in trees.****
I was recently having trouble identifying which trees I had that I wanted for firewood and which tree I had that would be good for smoking meat. I made several phones to several places. But by far, the team here was the most prompt at answering the phone, trying to help me, etc. I was told that Oliver would be the guy who could answer all my questions... I left a vm, and it wasn't long before he called me back willing to help me. He identified all the trees and gave me great insight into the nature of each tree. Great personality, great service... I'm leaving this rating so others will know in case they are searching for knowledgeable arborist to do work on your property and you want a company that knows more than just hacking down trees with a saw. They know their stuff!!!! 🌟 🌟 🌟 🌟 🌟

Brad, Nate, and Zach D were extremely professional and open to our suggestions. Cleaned up completely and didn’t leave any trash. Very happy with the results.

The whole crew was very conscientious in performing their work. Tyler looked carefully at the tree did a nice job trimming. They left the area clean.

Had a crew (Hunter, Tyler, Jake, Joe, & James) out today to cut down a large Black Walnut and trim other trees. Not only were they professional, and hospitable as well. I will use Gregory Forrest Lester again, and recommend them to neighbors. A company's reputation is based on its employees interaction with customers. This crew really makes Gregory Forrest Lester shine.

Gregory Forrest Lester Inc did a great job planting this Autumn Blaze Maple in our front yard. John Profit and Matt Day did the work quickly and cleanly and the end result looks great. Will be using GFL Inc in the future.

That was one of the most professional operations I’ve ever seen in my life. It was a very complicated job, massive tree(36inch) smashing the garage and completely covering the neighbor’s yard. They managed to cut and pluck those massive pieces one by one. Unbelievably professional. Thank you, thank you, thank you.

Really great to work with. Brad W. and his crew, Tyler, Jack, Dustin, Zach, and Amari, did a wonderful job with the tree and getting to it with what access they had. They were very nice, very cool, and very knowledgeable.

My tree and I are very thankful. Thanks!

The team did a good job taking down and eliminating three trees on my property. They respected my lawn and cleaned up thoroughly afterwards. Jared and Brad were both very informative, answered all my questions and resolved my concerns. Nate, Tyler, Dustin, and Mike hauled away all debris and cleaned up the surrounding area. Overall, I was pleased with the outcome of what was otherwise a very stressful project.

The team from Gregory Forrest Lester did an amazing job on our trees. Starting with Oliver Lester who came out for an estimate. He was very knowledgeable and informative about our trees and what needed to be done to ensure tree health. The crew team of Tyler, Dustin, and Amari were professional and took great care of our trees and surrounding landscape. Oliver took special care pruning an ornamental dogwood. They cleaned everything up promptly and were overall professional and courteous. I would describe the process as seamless. Do not hesitate to call the professionals from Gregory Forrest Lester Inc. for your tree work!

Lester Landscaping did a tremendous job clearing the tremendous damage we suffered from the April 8th tornado! We lost 22 major trees on the property and they everything cleaned up within a week. The crews were incredibly friendly and good at communicating what was next on the agenda to deliver this huge project. Thanks so much!

I highly recommend Gregory Forrest Lester Tree Service. They are very professional, timely and communicate effectively. Waiting to see if they save the tree, will post again if they do! :) The foreman, Jared kept me very informed along with Josh. Great team!

Amazing job and easy to work with. Our yard needed help. The back corner always flooded from neighborhood swimming pools. And the side yard was overrun with honeysuckle. The third picture is the “before”. And the second pic is the WIP. First pic is final product. The last pic is our side yard. Brian had some great suggestions and we let him run with it. Appreciate our back and side yard so much now!

Very professional and knowledgeable. They walked us through the whole process and our options. We had two big trees to take out and knew we wanted someone who knew what they were doing. They even came back to make sure the stumps and depressions were taken care of!

I can't speak highly enough about this company. They did an amazing job removing an extremely large tree that fell in my back yard.

In particular, I would like to thank Oliver Lester. He was tremendously helpful as I navigated this entire process. He is truly an expert in tree health and helped me understand the insurance implications of the fallen tree and the damage it did to my property.

Additionally, I want to thank the tree removal specialists Jared and Josh. These guys removed an absolutely massive tree safely and effectively while also providing spectacular customer service. The tree required specialized equipment given the precarious place it fell in my backyard (on a steep cliff, next to high voltage lines). They handled it very well and were honest communicators every step of the way.

I will only ever use or recommend this company with any tree related issues. Amazing.

After high winds left half of a large tree on our house, a neighbor recommended Gregory Forrest Lester. I'm so grateful! Oliver Lester arrived quickly to assess the situation and was able to get some branches off my internet line.
The crew showed up the next day and worked like a well-oiled machine. Jared, the foreman, was professional and friendly, as were the rest of the guys. You could tell that safety was a priority for the company, and the clean up was very thorough.
One thing to note is that the company is a full-service arborist, so they can consult on tree replacement and tree health as well. HIGHLY recommend!
