Tommy did a excellent job. He knew which branches needed to be removed to raise the canopy so the landscape below got the correct amount of sun. He also informed me of dead and damaged branches that should be removed for the health of the trees. He did a great job of cleanup at the end. All at a very reasonable cost. I'll use him again when the trees need trimming again and highly recommend him for tree services to anyone.
