    If I could give 10 stars I would! Dale and his crew did a fantastic job, and cleaned up the yard! The 200 foot tree was in the back yard with a 4 foot gate to get his lift through, no problem! If I could give 10 stars I would! I will definitely hire him again if necessary

    We hired Dale for multiple reasons. His honesty, energy and knowledge. Dale and his team did a fantastic job removing a giant tree in our backyard. Will definitely use their services again.

    Dale has removed large trees for us on three different occasions. He is a great guy, does excellent work, his price is fair, and he cleans up afterward. He just finished two full days of work for us and we could not be happier. Will hire him again.

    I called Recreational Lumberjack and Dale came over in a few days and gave me a quote for trimming lower limbs on 2 trees in my backyard. We scheduled a date and he and "P" came and removed a section of my fence to get their equipment in the backyard. They worked the whole time they were here for almost 2 hours. They were professional, courteous, and did a fabulous job trimming my trees, and also cut down a small tree for me. They cleaned up all the limbs and replaced the section of the fence they took down. I highly recommend Recreational Lumberjack!!

    Dale provided excellent customer service from the very first contact. He was prompt and knowledgeable. His fee was reasonable and fair. He showed up as promised and he and his crew did an awesome job with the tree trimming of a large oak. I definitely will hire him again as a need arises. 5 Stars! Thank you to Dale and team!

    Highly recommend!!!!!! Dale and crew came out and worked the entire time they were here. Very responsive to the branches I wanted cut, and pruned my 100 year old maple tree, 80 year old sycamore, trimmed oak and linden trees. They communicated quickly and cleaned up after themselves. I would hire again in a heartbeat!

    I highly recommend Recreational Lumberjack. Dale is courteous, professional and highly skilled. In addition to cutting down trees and grinding the stumps, he cleaned up the area so well that I couldn't tell that the trees had ever been there.

    Works with budgets and is on top of his business. Always returns calls or e-mails. It might take a day or two. But, he will contact you.

    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.

      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)
