Tree reviews in Williamsburg, Virginia

Dan was friendly and knowledgeable when he came out to my house to discuss what needed doing. We decided to remove eight trees and grind their stumps and prune five trees—a big job that involved the crane. His crew was hard-working and efficient and cleaned up as they went along. The work was very professionally done. I was one-hundred percent satisfied with the results and the fee.

I guess it’s always my goal to get into a keyboard battle with a tree trimming service. The review by Eckman is accurate. While Jennifer did let me know they were not going to make it…it was same day, around 2 pm. There was minimal communication following the missed appointment and there was no communication as stated for the stump grinding and mulch removal. Last communication was 4 April.

I was very appreciative over text communication with the team, I guess I wanted my tree removed. Furthermore, arguing with you and being rude wouldn’t reflect my character. I am sure things get busy, but your team stated on 4 April the stump would be removed in 7-10 days while the last of the work wasn’t finished up till 1 May.

I had no intention of leaving a review. Nor would I have gotten involved with this except you decided to respond to Ms. Eckman with inaccuracies and argumentative statements rather than just moving on.

I am not saying yall suck, but I’ll use someone else next time. Payment is on the way! Please let me know if you don’t get it. That would require communication. Something you haven’t done since 4 April.

Dan’s Tree Service did an excellent job removing a very large tree close to our fence. They were very professional, each crew member had their job and did it well. The men were polite. They cleaned up after the removal of the tree, you would not know that the were there. Dan came out to estimate the job, very nice man. Highly recommended.

Dan's Tree Service met or exceeded all of our expectations. They performed the work for the original estimate, were very friendly and professional, started work a couple of days early, removed three difficult river birches from our small back yard in a day, and did not cause any damage to our home or yard. We would not hesitate to use them again and would certainly recommend them to anyone interested in using a tree service.

Dan's crew did a great job taking down trees and cutting some limbs. They left the yard looking better than before. His crew chief was easy to talk to and let us make some changes on the fly. And the cost was reasonable.

Dan’s Tree Service did a wonderful job at trimming a number of trees on our property. The guys were professional and cleaned up all the debris before they left. Additionally, when we booked them, one of our trees needed to be dormant before being pruned and shaped, so the quoted price was still valid six months later when they returned to finish the job. I will recommend and use them again for future services.

We started out with Dan coming and taking a tour of our yard, checking out each tree (and identifying them, since we did not know what all of them were), and then he recommended which trees to leave, to cut, or to trim up. The team that came to cut down 4 trees and trim up some others was fantastic. They were here on a timely fashion, very concerned about safety, and worked very well together. They were amazing to watch as they climbed trees and we were mesmerized watching them work the crane and all of the other equipment involved in the project. The crew was very conscious of everything in our yard and cleaned it up better than when they got there.
We just cannot speak highly enough of everyone on the tree crew, in the office, and Dan himself in accomplishing this project.
We now have a nicely opened up yard and house and have gotten rid of a tree who's roots were endangering our foundation. And at a reasonable price. Anyone who needs knowledgeable tree advice and work will be satisfied with Dan and his team.

Dan’s tree service was the best money I’ve spent this year with my new house. The team showed up on time, had a safety meeting and went straight to work. They removed two large silver maples in less than 4 hours and left my yard in better shape than before. I Highly recommend using this company.

Highly recommend Dan's Tree services. We had Dan come over to give us a quote on removing a number of large trees very close to my house and on a hillside. He was very informative and gave us a very reasonable price that was much better than our 1st estimate. They showed up exactly when they said they would and finished the job that same day. I don't even think his guys took a break all day. There's no doubt they worked very efficiently and did a great job. After they had finished the yard was left in good shape and we were very impressed with the whole thing. They even removed a smaller tree we were going to remove ourselves for no charge. Overall Dan and his crew were very professional and great to work with.

We were really pleased with the efficacy of Dan's Tree Service. We also appreciated that when they first came out to give the estimate, they were honest that it would take a few weeks to get an appointment. Their scheduler worked with us to set a date so we were able to plan around it. They showed up when they said they would, did a beautiful job of trimming and removal for the specified trees, and then cleaned everything up, not leaving branches and debris everywhere. The price was steep but not unexpected. Totally worth it, plus it was great watching them work! I would use them again and recommend them to others.

I had a great experience using Dan's Tree Service. Everyone I spoke with and dealt with was professional and efficient from the estimate to the tree work. It was obvious they knew what they were doing both when felling tall trees and trimming up branches on trees and bushes. They cleaned up beautifully, I would highly recommend them.

Probably the two most important traits customers look for in contractors working on their homes are honesty and skill level. I asked Dan to give me an assessment of tree roots and potential foundation damage. I have two large maple trees near my home. After assessing tree spreads and other characteristics, Dan said I didn't have a problem and not to worry about it. He could have said I needed to remove the trees. It was a great relief. We love these trees. Dan was tremendous and we will call upon him in the future for any tree work we need done.

This company deserves more than five stars. The company as a whole are phenomenal from setting up appointments, answering all of my questions, to the crew that comes out and takes care of the trees, all of them are professional. I hired Dan's tree service to remove four trees two of them were 90 foot pines, one large magnolia tree and a cherry tree they got to my house a little bit for 8:00 and we're gone by lunch time. I got estimates from a couple different companies by decided on Dan's tree service based off the price, communication and time line.

Do not recommend. Communication with this company is seriously lacking. The service got done, but it took two and a half months to have a crepe myrtle removed, stump grinder, and mulch remove. Service was ordered back in February, they just finished 2 days ago. First time they showed up was a month and a half AFTER the job was ordered. Finally got a response on the day they were coming to start. I took the day off of work to be present, and no one showed up. No call, no explanation. Lost a day of wages. And no communication on the next 2 times they showed up to finish the job. So, it got done but not in a timely manner and no communication on the reasoning why it took so long. So, if you have a landscape project needing to get done but no care on when, this is the company. They'll show up whenever and not call.

Highly recommend Dan's Tree Service! Dan's just performed a massive job at our house - trimming and removing well over a dozen mature trees, most of which required a crane. The crew was 100% professional in everything they did - they arrived on time, took great care with our property as well as with the trees they weren't removing, and they cleaned up as they went. We were also very impressed with the safety precautions taken to protect their crew (nicely done, Doug the foreman!). Considering the scope of this job and the quality of the work, we are extremely happy. Thank you Dan's!

Dan's Tree Service exceeded all my expectations! I recently had the pleasure of hiring them to take down two trees in my yard, and I couldn't be happier with the results. From start to finish, the experience was nothing short of exceptional.

First and foremost, their use of a crane was nothing short of impressive. It allowed them to safely and efficiently remove the trees without causing any damage to my property or surrounding structures. Watching their skilled team maneuver the crane with precision was truly a sight to behold.

Not only was their work efficient, but it was also incredibly professional. The team at Dan's Tree Service demonstrated a level of expertise that instilled confidence from the moment they arrived. They were courteous, knowledgeable, and clearly experienced in their craft.

Furthermore, the attention to detail in cleaning up after the job was remarkable. Once the trees were down, they meticulously cleared away every last branch and leaf, leaving my yard looking better than before they arrived. It was clear that they take pride in their work and strive for perfection in every aspect of the job.

Overall, I cannot recommend Dan's Tree Service highly enough. If you're in need of tree removal or any related services, look no further. Their combination of professionalism, efficiency, and expertise truly sets them apart. Thank you, Dan's Tree Service, for a job exceptionally well done!

Jennifer and Doug were professional and compassionate when working with my elderly mother to get trees trimmed on short notice. The work done was excellent, the trees look great and balanced, and the yard is cleaner than when they started. Thank you!

I've used Dan's Tree Service twice in the past couple years to trim and prune a very large, beautiful crepe myrtle. He sent about 8 crew members to do a job that took less than two hours on 29 December, and charged me a very fair price. Dan could have closed his business for the holiday season, but he did not. With little if any profit on this job, Dan seemed more interested in keeping his employees busy and giving them a paycheck during the holidays. That's a smart business owner who values both his customers and his employees.

Dan’s Tree Service did a fantastic job removing two large trees from our front yard and pruning trees. They were on time, courteous, and very thorough in cleaning up. We highly recommend and will use Dan’s again in the future.

We purchased our home in July of 2025 knowing the property had been neglected and that many trees were diseased and some of the trees were dangerously hanging over the home. We spoke with several tree services prior to making our choice in Dans Tree Service. Dan reviewed the trees on the property and gave us an assessment of the needs of the trees on our property.
After scheduling the work, Dan’s crew of 10 arrived on time and ready to tackle the 22 trees that needed to be trimmed and/or removed. The process involved very technical removal of trees precariously near and over our home. The team worked expertly and safely, the process was amazing as the tree climbers scaled the 50 to 80 foot trees. The branches were trimmed and roped to the ground. Large sections of trees were secured to the ground with the use of a crane.
After almost 6 hours the team cleaned and cleared every inch of the work zone. The site supervisor reviewed the scope of work and made sure we were happy with the experience.

We highly recommend Dan’s Tree Service.

Top notch responded to my call immediately. An estimator was out within hours and addressed a special need that I had. A very friendly crew with large substantial machinery handled my job very quickly and addressed all my concerns. They listened to me! Very satisfied!
