backyard tree pruning

We asked Craig to prune our honey locust tree after we saw what a great job he did with our neighbour's large Manitoba maple, which had never been properly pruned.

Craig did a fantastic job with our honey locust. He cut branches that were growing horizontally and pruned out a lot of the small water-sprout growth. He and Stan did a through clean-up when they were finished with the job. The tree is beautifully shaped now, with much improved air flow. The price for the job was very reasonable. We're looking forward to seeing it thrive for many years to come!

We would be delighted to recommend CB Tree Service to our friends.

Company Response

The last line of your review illustrates what we are always striving for. I started my company with the goal to be of service to anyone who is in need of professional tree care. We practice our craft daily, happy to offer affordable tree care solutions to homeowners and businesses who need our help with a variety of different tree issues. We are always mindful of the fact that our customers choose us over other companies who also offer tree service. We are especially gratified when the results of our work are recognized and appreciated. Please know we are thankful for every review of our work, which reassures us our goal has been achieved.
Thank you for this winter job. Many people aren't aware that most pruning and trimming jobs can be performed during the winter months at substantially reduced rates. The branches aren't obscured by leaves, allowing a better view of the tree, the ground is frozen, reducing the chance of sod or flower damage and the tree gets a fresh start, right from spring. Your tree is off to a great start this year.
I'm delighted you're delighted. All the best, Craig.

Fantastic Service

Craig returned my call right away, provided a free site visit and quote within days and completed the work in a timely manner. We were very satisfied with the final product and would recommend Craig and his staff to anyone.

Hi Lorry,
The Manitoba maple tree in the backyard has been reborn!
The lower branches which were broken and stubbed have all been trimmed away. The overhanging branches which were growing over your neighbour garage and threatening the garden area have been removed. We cleared out the center of the tree to remove water-sprout (sucker) growth and rubbing and duplicate branches. This will provide a much improved airflow through the tree which will help it resist strong wind gusts, and prevent limbs fron breaking.
It was a good idea to cut back the branches which were growing over the children's swing-set and the long heavy branches growing over the deck towards the house. Overall, the tree is much healthier and safer to be underneath.
Your neighbor was very pleased with our work also and has hired us to prune their trees as well.
Thank you for the job and taking the time to write a review.
Please be assured that anyone you send our way, will be treated well also. We're at the other end of the phone when the tree needs pruning again. Take care, all the best, Craig.

First Class Service

CB Tree pruned 2 large trees on my property in September. The service was performed by Craig the owner plus two helpers. Craig provided an initial quote that was very reasonable. Craig is highly experienced, very personable and obviously enjoys his work. He did exactly what he promised and more. I watched as he performed the work. At each step Craig checked that the work was conforming to my expectations. He offered advice along the way (all of it was good). Craig made sure that he provided value and even did work beyond what was promised at no extra charge. I was very pleased and having worked with Craig I have no reason to look further on any future work.

Tree removal and tree trim

I hired Craig a few months ago to remove a tree stump for me and I had such a great experience I called him back to do another job. My mother in law had a skinny tree in her backyard and he came by to take it down. It was incredible to watch a professional at work.

I also had a large tree in the front of my house that I needed trimmed because it was hitting the house. Craig trimmed it and removed all the deadwood. It's looks great. Even when he was done he was still removing small branches that I would have never have noticed. He went above and beyond for me. He's a perfectionist and takes pride in a job well done. I definitely recommend Craig.

Thanks for the review Shane. I hate to bug my customers for a review so I seldom ask, but It's really nice when they come unexpectedly. I'm glad we could revisit your property again to clean up the deadwood out of that front tree before it hurt somebody. It was nice to help your mother in law at her house also, while we were close by. Even though the tree was thin, it was tall enough to strike the house if it toppled suddenly. It was wise to take that one down. Have a great holiday season, all the best to you and your family. See you next time, Craig.

Thank you Anastasia
The job went very well and the entire area seems much larger with all of the overgrowth gone. You can replant trees and shrubs in the future which are more in alignment with the property area and your landscape plans for the garden.
Please know we appreciate the work and are pleased to respond to your kind review. We are grateful for both and wish you all the best.
Good luck, Craig.

Backyard tree removal

We had previously hired Craig to remove a tree that had fallen on our home. Because of the excellent experience working with him them, we hired him again to remove a tree from our backyard and a giant branch that was overhanging the house.

The branch overhanging the house was difficult to remove. Craig brought a team to help bring the branch down in many small pieces and as a result, there was not even a scratch to the house in the process. I was impressed at the care taken to ensure there would be no damage.

CB Tree are honest and hard working. Highly recommended.

Thanks for the kind words Vinay. We always appreciate every job, but It's especially gratifying when we're called back again to do more work. Thanks to our customer's reviews, we were honoured to win Homestar's best award for tree service 2019 and 2011.
We couldn't do it without the support of our customers, and their great reviews, so thank you very much.
Always a pleasure. Take care.
All the best, Craig.

Spruce tree removal

I had two overgrown Spruce trees starting to cover my front entrance that had to be removed, along with a diseased shub. My neighbour also needed 2 dead stumps removed. They were not big jobs and I wanted a local company. Craig replied immediately to my call and came out same day for a quote. He was very reasonable and was able to start the next day on a Saturday! Fantastic service, quote included clean up. Would highly recommend!

The front entrance looks much larger with those two Spruce trees cleared away. It makes the front of the house stand out better and less cluttered. Thank you for the work and the kind review. I'm glad your neighbour is happy too. Please expect the sane service to anyone you send our way.
Enjoy the yard, all the best to you, Craig.

Definitely Recommended

We had a large branch that caused some property damage to the neighbors on a weekend. Called CB Tree Service and they promptly came out and did an assessment.

Next day they were on site and did a quick great clean up job so the neighbors could get their services restored.

Definitely recommend them for any tree service job you need.

I'm always amazed how often a large tree or branch can come crashing down and narrowly miss many targets where there would be extensive damage. Luckily this particular branch did just that, avoiding striking the houses in It's path. I'm glad it only pulled down the service wires and only struck a small shed. The damage could have been so much worse. We look forward to returning later in the winter to reassess the hazards posed by this aging willow tree. The winter months are an excellent time to inspect the upper canopy when the branches aren't obscured by the leaves. You're wise to be proactive about corrective pruning to prevent a reoccurrence, especially since the tree has already failed, quite unexpectantly. An added bonus is that in the winter months when our work has slowed, we can spend more time on the tree and offer seasonally reduced prices.
Thank you for bringing us back to look after this fallen limb for you. We welcome the chance to help you again in a few months. Thank you for the work and the kind review
All the best, Craig. .

Tree and shrub culling.

They came with equipment. Cut everything they had to. Suggested (to be included in the already quoted price. ) some other things they could do. Cleaned up all kinds of old leaf piles on the driveway. Great to drive in now. They chipped all the cut and chopped stuff in their machine.
Great.
