Matt and his crew were amazing. Our very tall Norfolk Pine roots was ruining our driveway and front patio, so sadly had to go. Crew was very professional and quick, as well as very efficient. Can't even tell the tree was ever there. Highly recommend First Choice Tree Service.

Prompt and professional, great communication and attention to details. They cleared alot of severe over growth around my house as well as removed a dead tree. Cleared over hanging and dead branches from several large oaks and cleaned up smaller trees. Removed vines and cleared flower beds as well. My house looks better then before we moved in. Amazing job would definitely hire again

Their name is First Choice because it should be yours! I live in Georgia and my parents live in Lakeland , Fl. . My parents are elderly and due to health issues could not take care of the trees and shrubs around the house. They were extremely professional, kind, and understanding. I contacted them late and Matt was at my parents home the following morning. Not only do they trim cut and shape the trees they haul away everthing so there is nothing to worry about. If you live in Lakeland or the surrounding areas you should contact First Choice.

OK First of All MATT KENNEY Is a total professional, he knows his Job and is really good at it.. They are totally professionals. They arrived on time and the JOB was done early , they cleaned everything up after the JOB was finished. I will definitely use them again. I have used several tree company's in the past but FIRST CHOICE TREE SERVICE Is the BEST tree company I have ever used. Iam talking to my neighbors about this company. they are the BEST in FLORIDA that I have found..

They put a rush on my tree trimming because they knew I had a well digging company coming to dig a well when they were done. So right after agreeing to the price they trimmed the tree approximately 1 hour later. They were very professional and went above and beyond.

Seal of Approval

What is the screening process that Service Professionals go through in order to become members of the HomeAdvisor network?

  1. Verify Trade License
    HomeAdvisor checks to see if the business carries the appropriate state-level license.
  2. Verify Insurance
    As a part of our screening process, we encourage professionals to carry general liability insurance. We require coverage for hundreds of services.
  3. Verification of State Business Filings
    For business types that require a Secretary of State filing, we confirm that the business is in good standing in the state in which it is located.
  4. Criminal Records Search
    HomeAdvisor uses 3rd party data sources to conduct a criminal search for any relevant criminal activity associated with the owner/principal of the business.
  5. Sex Offender Search
    We confirm that the owner/principal is not listed on the official state Sex Offender web site in the state in which the owner/principal of the company is located.
  6. Bankruptcy Search
    We use 3rd party data sources to check the history of the principal/owner of the business for bankruptcy filings by or against them.
  7. Legal Search for Civil Judgments
    We use 3rd party data sources to check the principal/owner of the business for state level civil legal judgments entered against them.
  8. Liens Search
    We use 3rd party data sources to check the principal/owner of the business for liens placed against them.
  9. Identity Verification (SSN)
    HomeAdvisor verifies the social security number(s) of the owner/principal for identity check purposes. This check applies primarily to smaller business entities.
  10. Identity Verification (Reverse Phone Lookup)
    We conduct a reverse business phone lookup to identify records matching the phone number information provided by the business.
