Tree reviews in Newport News, Virginia

Posting five-star reviews can be a slippery slope, but here we are! We consulted four different 'tree companies' for estimates. Honestly, it was a wild ride! First of all, the nickel and diming was astounding. I don't want to name the other companies, because they weren't involved in my own experience. #1 company came in over $4500 over, #2 came in $1600 over and #3 came in under $900. Tree removal/pruning is not a cheap endeavor, but when it's necessary, it's gotta be done. We decided to go with R&K Tree Service. Russ, the owner and arborist, came out and did a serious education for us. We don't know about trees, their growth patterns, the sun factor, unseen damages, and for certain, property line trees! He was open and honest about the future of our trees, including the often overlooked shade-factor! ( We didn't think to take all of that in account!) The Big Issues were property lines of (slightly) distracted neighbors, and tree health. Russ was able to guide us ** in layman's terms** to a truly great experience. R&K is seriously concerned with making sure things go 'right' for YOU! I now have an incredible sky view, a cleaner than before yard and driveway, zero damages (!!!!) to the house and garage they worked above (I think that might've been some kind of magic...) and a guarantee that if we have any concerns or questions, they'll be on top of it in a minute! BTW... I was really impressed how well he treated his crew. In my book, that speaks volumes. The crew he had was so respectful and genuine...

Super professional and efficient! Russ and his team removed a massive Maple tree from our front yard, and it was an overwhelmingly positive experience. These are the guys to handle any tree service needs.

Cannot be happier, job well done. I had a big poplar fell in the back of the house, hit the porch on a way down. Needed to get tree removed before start repairs. Call few tree service contractors, Russel was the only one who could clearly explain how he will do the job, when and what to expect. I am really happy for hiring these guys, they took care everything, paid attention to every detail (driveway, flower bad ...). Definitely will call them next time if needed, highly recommend. Well organized, hard working crew.

We have used R & K Tree Service, LLC service twice in the past 5 years. Once after a storm damaged a large maple tree and recently to remove a huge gumball tree with overgrown roots breaking up our driveway.
Their friendly professionalism, efficient work, fair pricing and excellent cleanup is the best of the best! I highly recommend this 5 Star service to anyone who wants their job done right!

I need to tell everyone that R and K tree service did an amazing job. I will highly recommended them. They gave me the best price. They did amazing in cleaning up. I had a very big tree that they cut down, cleaned up, stump grounded in one day. Very polite and hard working. I will definitely use them again!!!!!

We contracted with R & K to remove 17 pine trees, grind stumps & take away all debris. We were so pleased with everything they did and would highly recommend them for any tree work. They were so good even our neighbors spoke highly of their professionalism. They cleaned up their yards and kept them informed all along the way. They had two cranes and three crews and took all safety precautions. Amazing job. Call them for tree quotes!

I used R & K tree service last month to have some very large trees removed! My husband and I got several quotes from local businesses and theirs was by far the best! Russ, the owner, was on time with his crew and got the job done. I was so impressed watching them! It is quite a show watching them take down these huge trees! I'll definitely use them again when the time comes!

R & K Tree Service did an outstanding job in removing 2 maple trees from our yard. Truly a 5 Star company! One of the trees bordered the neighbor’s yard, and not having much yard space between the 2 houses, they used a crane, guiding it with expert accuracy and precision. Clean-up was wonderful and Russ and his team worked amazingly together. Can’t recommend them enough!

My wife and I had massive trees that surrounded the home we bought last year. These trees created a lot of anxiety because of the damage that we knew they could do, not only to our foundation, but from any upcoming storm. We got several estimates for getting these trees removed but chose R & K because of our comfort with the owner Russ. He and his company did a phenomenal job and we could not be more satisfied with what he accomplished. He is extremely knowledgeable in and he and his company were more than professional in everything they did. We would highly recommend R & K Tree Service for any of your tree removal needs!

They came out and provided an excellent service at a really great price. Very professional and knowledgeable, will be using them in the future!

Great job very professional and friendly .Would definitely recommend for all services.

Excellent, I would definitely refer this Company, and will definitely will be using them AGAIN

Trustworthy service, crew worked hard removing large trees and stumps in one day.

They were very professional . They did a awsome job. The guys were very hard workers.Would recommend for sure.

I was a little apprehensive about moving the tree 🌴 that was hanging over my house... Time's Up Tree Experts was recommended to me by a friend once I called them they put me at great ease of mind... So I received a reasonable price and allow them to do the work... These guys was very professional and timely so by the time I got home from work, I couldn't tell that a threatening tree was once ever there...
I respected there professionalism so much ,I set them to trim and manage all of my trees ...
Thanks guys for a great job...

Times Up Tree Experts removed a huge oak tree from my yard. The owner was very professional, communicative and had a pleasant attitude. Due to the size of the tree. It required more work than anticipated. The team diligently and professionally worked to remove the tree with no damage to my roof. I highly recommend them. It’s good to know that service with a concern for overall quality still exists. Awesome! Thank you!

If there were ten stars that I was able to leave then I definitely would, everyone was very professional and kind throughout the entire process. Their attention to detail was remarkable I’d have to say the least I told them what I wanted and they delivered! Wonderful job, I will be recommending them to my friends, family and neighbors!!

I have to say that the guys at times up tree experts were great. They were the first to respond and the first to provide me a quote. Overall I was very happy with them in handling some limbs that had a potential for causing damage while also removing some limbs that had fallen but were dangerously hanging in the tree. Very responsive to my questions as well as identifying some poison ivy in the area they were working in for our reference.

We didn't end up using this company, but we greatly appreciate his time in coming out and giving a quote. He was very communicative and professional. One of his guys was supposed to come out to our property to provide a quote, but got hung up at another job. He kept in contact with me, let me know the situation, and then came out himself. He was very personable and friendly, and he offered a fair quote. We will definitely keep him in mind.

We were pleased with the project completed for us by Time’s Up Tree Experts. We had need for shrub removal, stump grinding and some tree work. The consultation, quote and work were all done to our complete satisfaction. Terrence is conscientious and very pleasant to work with!

We had a bit of a dire situation with a large, 20 ft branch that broke off our tree and was hovering over our house. I called Times Up and within the hour, TJ came to assess the damage and work needed. He and his crew came first thing this morning and cleared the branch, trimmed a few more unstable branches, and cleaned everything up, plus left us with some firewood. Fair price and good work.
