Reviews of local pros in Springfield, Virginia

G&V Tree Service took a tree down for me and later came back to grind to stump. The workers damaged my neighbor's stone post. The workers were still in the neighborhood, we contacted the Foreman less than 5 minutes after they left. My neighbor saw the whole thing but it was our words against the workers. The damage was huge, only a heavy machine or a vehicle could leave such damage. Could not be a vehicle because the mail boxes are in front of the post and a vehicle would first hit the mailboxes to get to the post. The damage was on the side of the post next to the stump. G&V resisted any logical explanation and said "your neighbor should've taken a video". We showed photos of the fresh mortar mixed in with the stump chips. The neighbor sent me the estimate for the damage, I reached out to G&V and send them the estimate and requested help with the cost, I got a message from G & V to ask if the work was completed and I told them Yes. Never heard back from them, I reached out for a status and no response. Then, today got another past due notice. G&V is not even willing to negotiate with me to help with the cost of the damage or consider some relief from the cost of work. I am stuck with paying them and repairs to my neighbor's post. I take no pleasure in writing this review, as all the reviews here for G & V are fantastic. I will never use G & V again or recommend them to anyone.

G & V Tree Service did an amazing job. They came in and gave me an honest quote and the next day they came in and did the work. The trees were trimmed professionally and Care was taken not to damage my lawn. The workers were professional and very safe. I have no problems with recommending and I will be using them again. They are a great team!

The staff at G&V, Gary (arborist), Edwin and Lilia were very professional and courteous as well as the crew. Lilia was very helpful when I called to ask a few questions. Fortunately, a crew was available. She sent them out and they arrived in 20 min. I watched the young man (not sure of his name) who was the tree cutter, do a great job and he had the tree down in minutes. The other guys diligently carried tree parts to the truck for shredding.
Would I recommend G&V to other people? Absolutely!! I was very pleased with the service provided.
I have already passed the name of the company and phone# on to a friend.

Thank you G&V!!

Warm regards,
Wanda Ellis

We were so happy with G&V Tree service from the initial visit with free estimate until they completed the job. Very professional service and such reasonable prices. The amazing part, besides all the above, is they took down two huge pine trees, trimmed a Magnolia tree and two other trees in our yard, plus stump grinding all in 3 1/2 hours. The entire crew were amazing and very professional. If you are in need of tree services this is the company to call!

G&V tree service is a first rate company. Their pricing is, by far, the best of any tree service company I have found. The work that the crews have performed for me has always been to my satisfaction. The advice I have received from site appraiser Jaime has proved useful. They are efficient and attentive to cleanup after the trimming work is completed. I would highly recommend G&V.

We had G&V take down 4 trees in our back yard, one of which was very large and threatened our neighbor’s home. Our experience with G&V was fantastic from the first phone call through the clean up after the job. They are true professionals and not only did the work extremely well, but the cost was fair and reasonable. They scheduled us promptly, worked amazingly well as a team and got the job done quickly. I highly recommend G&V. Great job!

We moved into a home with a yard that had not been touched in probably 20 years. It was so overgrown and covered in weeds and poison ivy. G & V cleaned it up for us and a year later I'm still hearing from neighbors about how much better the yard looks.
They also removed a lightning struck tree from the yard this summer. They were upfront that the removal would damage the ground and included ground repair as part of their estimate.
These guys are friendly and professional. No complaints.

I cannot say enough about this company. They were excellent, on time and very professional. They arrived on time, finished within a 2-hours. I had a tree removed in the middle of my backyard, in which I never saw a tree being removed so fast, as well as some orher teees cut down and shrubbery cleared out. These guys moved so quickly and fast. Excellent job with removing all of the vines, trees everything, cleaned up and was out. I would HIGHLY recommend them.

Repeat customer. Very quick communication and fast scheduling. Pricing is very reasonable. Removed a very large tree close to my house quickly and efficiently. Highly recommend.

G&V Landscaping did a fantastic job with our complete landscaping makeover. When we moved into our house, the backyard was caked in vegetation, old trees, a broken retaining wall, and a half functioning patio. Mario walked us through the options we had available and why it needed to be done. We were hesitant at first because of pricing, and we only did the bare minimum. However, we soon learned that Mario’s recommendations were all crucial steps toward a functioning backyard with proper drainage and adequate grading for proper egress/use. We eventually went through the motions of turning our backyard marsh into the ideal lawn. At the end of it all, G&V took down problematic trees, dug French drains that connects to our gutters, installed sod & mulch, built a patio, and placed gravel around the edges our deck. Mario and his company kept us informed every step of the way; they even stopped by after the work was done to ensure that all completed work checked all the boxes. We were very pleased with the high quality work and professionalism from G&V.

They did a wonderful job!! They were on the time and did great work and left my yard looking great! If you need tree work call G & V Tree Service, you will be glad you did!! I have used them twice and I will not call anyone else!!

G&V did a very professional job. They arrived on time, worked expeditiously to complete the work, removed all debree and cleaned up the job site.

Their services were competitively priced and I was very satisfied with their work ethic. I would highly recommend them for tree services and would use them again for any future projects I may have.

G&V provides excellent work. They are prompt, timely, responsible, safe, and thorough.

They have always taken great care of the sounding property and leave work sites looking undisturbed.

I have had nothing but good results when using G&V, for the more than 2 dozen experiences I have utilized them, for my tree pruning and tree removal needs.

Absolutely phonemail experience. Fantastic customer service, well priced services, and great counsel. I needed to remove a large Pear Tree from my yard and wanted to replace it with a much cleaner tree. I don't know the first thing about trees and didn't know if pruning the one I had was more cost effective over time than simply replacing it. Edwin Galo was my G&V consultant and helped me each step of they way. He provided great advice, never tried to sell me on anything, was patient, answered all my questions, kept me updated on the progress of scheduling, and even helped me find a tree that met my needs.

Based on this experience, I'd HIGHLY recommend this company for your landscaping needs.

I was very pleased with the service and professionalism of G&V Tree Service. My project involved clearing out 15-year old shrubs and bushes from both flowerbeds in the front yard. Mario did the initial estimate & he remained in constant communication throughout the end of the project. The employees who completed the work were on time and friendly. They also explained the job and provided care instructions for the new shrubs and flowering bushes. Excellent workmanship. Would definitely recommend this company to anyone seeking quality landscaping or tree removal services.

G & V Tree Service responded quickly to my request for an estimate. Their price was reasonable as I had gotten other estimates. Once I accepted the proposal, Edwin contacted me and scheduled the job in a timely manner. They removed the tree quickly and without any issues! I will definitely contact G & V Tree Service again if I have needs for an arborist!!

Mario and his crew spent three hours at our Springfield home yesterday, carefully shaping, lightening, and thinning the crown jewel of our property — a magnificent 50-foot maple tree I planted 35 years ago. The results were nothing short of breathtaking. In a time when true craftsmanship feels rare, their work was a masterclass in precision and pride.

Because this tree I planted 35 years ago holds such deep meaning for us, it was wonderful — even emotional — to see it restored to its full, graceful beauty. Gonzalo, the crew leader, and Guadalupe, the climber, worked with remarkable skill and coordination.

Guadalupe moved through the branches with the agility of an artist, clearing the interior with precision, while Gonzalo sculpted the canopy from the bucket truck with an expert eye for form and balance.

Mario’s team also transformed our front-yard dogwood, turning what had become a tangled mass of branches into a beautifully balanced tree that complements the maple perfectly. Together, these improvements have elevated the entire look of our home — and brought us tremendous happiness.

Thanks to the increased light and airflow, our beloved maple now stands stronger, healthier, and more vibrant than ever.

Our heartfelt thanks to Mario, Gonzalo, and Guadalupe for their outstanding work.

We had a wonderful experience with G&V Tree Services. The team was very efficient and very considerate in their work. They did a great job and we would call them again for any further tree work needed. Highly recommended!

G&V has done tree work for me 3 times. Each time the boss / estimator has come out to scope the job and determine the cost.
==> It is April 2025 and time to trim the hedge, eliminate the 1/2 dead tree, and take-out dead branches way up on another tree; G and V had it all done in under 2 hours. Very acceptable price, Fantastic work, Friendly, hard-working crew. I've attached a few pics for this recent work.
==> G&V is the ONLY tree service company my family uses.

G&V is prompt, professional and reliable for my tree trimming and removal needs. I’ve used them for storm damage and also difficult (dangerous) tree removals in close proximity to structures and sensitive areas. If you’ve got a tree that is putting your home in danger, they are your best choice. Their men are well equipped, polite and do an excellent job. If you’re looking for a professional, call G&V of Lorton, Virginia.

Highly recommend G&V Tree Service! Out of five companies, they were the only ones who spotted a downspout near the removal site and planned accordingly to avoid damage. Edwin provided excellent communication throughout the process, keeping me updated on Ms. utility reports and scheduling. They were fast, professional, and thorough. I’ll be using them for all my tree care from now on.
