EXCELLENT Based on 31 reviews Bill Johnson2024-09-03Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Highly recommend the tree planters for sourcing and installing beautiful trees for your property. We purchased a southern live oak and the process was great from start to finish. A wonderful selection and size options to choose from, installation was expertly done with a dirt ring left for watering. The tree looks great and we are looking forward to watching it grow. Iva Katana2024-08-15Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. The Tree Planters operate with the highest level of quality and professionalism. Finally, a contractor you WANT to work with. They came to my house to assess my property and helped us decide which 5 trees to choose and their placement. From my initial inquiry to installation, Mackenzie's communications were prompt and thorough, the trees were beautiful and the after care support has been excellent so far. I'm so happy to have worked with them. Stacy PRESCOTT2024-07-25Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Mackenzie is so amazing to work with! She made great recommendations and her communication style is superb. She followed through regarding every discussion to make sure all of our concerns were addressed. We are new to the area and are not knowledgeable about the aesthetic and heartiness of varieties. We couldn’t be happier with her guidance. Fabio, Tito and team are fabulous! Make sure to watch Joe’s videos…. He is an inspiration and Mackenzie and team bring the magic to your yard. Lou Stanek2024-07-12Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Good company. Good communication. Good product. We were 60 miles away from the tree planters and still found them to be the best nursery for availability and planting of any we found. Are tree arrived on time, look great, was quickly and courteously planted where we wanted it. Good service. Totally satisfied. Joan Montana2024-06-22Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Enjoying my 2 large new oak trees and so happy they are home. The Tree Planters were professional, respectful, and made the process easy. Mackenzie is very personable and provided guidance all along the way. They performed a post installation inspection to check the status of the trees and tweak the temporary watering system. Thank you Tree Planters. stephen roebuck2024-06-15Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Tree Planters and its staff are EXCELLENT! Courteous, Professional and Knowledgeable from plant selection through installation. They provided helpful and thoughtful counsel throughout our project replacing four mature end of life Laurel Oaks with 18-20’ Chinese Elm (Lace Bark) trees. With her vast knowledge of trees, MacKenzie helped us make the right selection. The experienced installation crew (Tito and Fabio) had to maneuver heavy equipment in a tight space around renovation in progress and made it look effortless. Perhaps the best part was being able to work with a second generation family business who prides itself on providing an excellent customer experience. We would highly recommend Tree Planters! Duane Schultz2024-06-07Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. The trees exceeded my expectations! The privacy they created for my pool area exceeded my expectations! The installation exceeded my expectations! The professionalism of installers Tito and Fabio exceeded my expectations! Matt Wiseman2024-05-07Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Great experience with The Tree Planters! Super easy to deal with, and I loved how responsive they were. Best of all, they delivered and planted us a beautiful Weeping Bottlebrush tree over two hours away from them! Viki2024-04-15Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Customer service is poor. Tree not as described, be sure to check before purchasing. Installation very messy work. Do not recommend! Tom petcoff2024-04-13Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We needed a large palm removed and two replacement palms. The Tree Planters were one of three bidders.
