 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I never use anyone but duffey tree care. Have worked with them for many years. They only hire very hard working and dedicated professional employees. Tree/brush removal is excellent. Their estimator and I always sit on my front porch with a bottle of water. Best ever. If u don't use duffey, you are missing out.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Duffy’s tree service took a 37 year old laurel oak out of my front yard and it was near two house and was huge.  They didn’t damage a thing and took it out fairly quickly.  His lift kept giving him problems or it would’ve been out a day sooner.  Price was average, I didn’t shop around but quote was where I guessed it would be.  They were all very nice, easy to work  with.

Billy and I continue to praise Duffey Tree Care on recent work done with raising the canopy and trimming of our mature trees. They exceeded our expectations! We trust and highly recommend Duffey!

I don't know how to begin to express our deepest gratitude to Duffey Tree Care! From the comprehensive free estimate provided by Phil Fortune followed by prompt communication --  not even a week later our problematic Brazilian pepper tree is now history! Candice Duffey and her team of tree professionals arrived on time and did not leave until they delivered what they promised and MORE! Duffey Tree Care is licensed and fully insured.They respected our neighbors and our property with professional tender loving care, WITH stellar clean up and cartaway!
My husband and I are forever grateful! We have many mature trees on our property so you never know when you will need assistance-- BUT we know one thing for certain we will ALWAYS contact Duffey Tree Care !

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I highly recommend Duffey Tree Care. On the initial assessment, they educated us about our trees - different types of Oak, Laurel and Live, and their health and the impact their overgrowth was having on other trees like our crape myrtles. The team was extremely communicative- both during the assessment and during the work (even caring about the impact branch removal would have on birds that visit the trees and bird feeders in our yard). Our large laurel oak in our front yard had deadwood removed, branches thinned and was cut back away from our roof. In our back yard, multiple live oaks were shaped in the same way and branches were moved away from our pool case. We also had a dead live oak removed. The team was very cognizant of all that we have in our yard, moving what needed to be moved during the work and putting it back. The cleanup was perfect.
To top it all off, on the night that the work was done, I received a text from my next-door neighbor (front oak tree has branches that go over his yard) that said, "Nice work on the tree."
Truly impressed.
