Ben and Bertram did a wonderful job for us. The hard to reach branches of our oak were expertly pruned and our very large dead cherry was removed. All the wood was hauled away and they left our yard in grade a condition. Also, Ben took the time to explain why he pruned in the manner he did. His expertise was very helpful throughout.

Greenstar provided excellent service. Worked with all the neighbors to coordinate the timing of overhanging trees that fell on multiple properties. The crew showed up when they said they would. Used heavy equipment and negotiated use of neighbors driveway. Excellent job timing trees, getting rid of vegetation growing around the house, and cleaning up the property. Would use again. Very professional.

Ben is a great tree guy and his knowledge about trees and tree work is fascinating. I wanted some trees to be removed but he showed me a better way. He did a lot of pruning work to help the trees to grow better and theyâ re no longer a threat to our house. I highly recommend Greenstar Tree for any tree services you need.

Five Stars! The Greenstar team offers high-quality, highly responsive, expert and professional services. We have towering hemlocks in our backyard and love how they make our yard feel like a secret garden. Ben was highly knowledgeable and took great care to balance the need to prune for vigorous health and preserve tree cover in the canopy. He also expertly tackled some other trees that have grown sideways over the years. Ben is a true pro! We felt our trees were in great hands and highly recommend Greenstar.

Response from Company:

Thank you so much! It was a great pleasure to work for such nice people and on those nice trees. Please keep in touch and let us know how they're doing!

Very Knowledgeable, hard working, great results. Fit us in during this Covid work from home / furlough summer. Ben and Oscar (along with additional crew member) took down several trees along with massive pruning throughout the property. Everything was chipped and mulch spread around the beds as well. Ben and Oscar have a god eye for what makes sense, coordinate well, and adaptable to changes as needed. They also provided good guidance for ongoing maintenance. Already recommended them to several neighbors. Safety focused at all times

Ben and his team were great. Service was awesome, price was right. One tree removed, two trees pruned. Everything left cleaner then when they started. Highly recommended.

There are not enough kind words to say about Ben, Oscar, and Greenstar Tree. These two gentlemen arrived on time, giving a text in advance letting us know they were on their way, and did an INCREDIBLE job on our enormous Copper Beech tree. Their personable service also goes above and beyond and we cannot thank them enough. Once they finished with the tree they even left the yard cleaner than it was. Their pricing was amazing and he was willing to even throw in a limb from a nearby Dogwood. If we could give them 6 stars we would! Thank you Greenstar, you will be hearing from us again, we guarantee it.

Add me to the list of happy customers Greenstar has earned! Ben and his crew fit me in during a very busy time so as to complete tree work before our pool install and they were meticulous and very hard working.

Ben and his crew did a great job removing one mid-size tree and doing a massive prune job on another. They also cleared numerous other branches. They cleaned up nicely when done and were a pleasure to interact with

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.
