Good pruning does more than tidy a tree. It encourages strong, healthy growth, shapes young trees before problems set in, removes hazardous deadwood, and can also clean up damaged limbs. Timing matters more than most people realize. Prune an oak at the wrong time of year and you risk introducing oak wilt, so we plan every job around your tree’s health and the calendar.

Every job starts with a handwritten estimate from an arborist who walks your property and explains exactly what needs to be removed and why. We clean up every branch and twig before we leave.

What Happens After You Reach Out

The Personal Estimate

You call, we schedule your free estimate

Give us a call or fill out the form. If you contact the office, you'll most likely talk to our office manager, Chris. On a typical week, Chris is in the office Monday-Friday from 9-4.

We walk you through what's needed

A local arborist, usually the owner Joe, walks your property and figures out what’s going on. You get a hand-written estimate on the spot, and we walk you through it and answer any questions you may have.

We schedule the job to fit your needs and the season

Once you give the go-ahead, we get you on the schedule, timed to the job and the season.

Right crew, right equipment

On the day of your service, we bring the right crew and the right equipment to the job. JCE's spent 25 years buying gear built to protect a yard, not just get a tree down fast, and that's the same standard the crew's trained to.

Meticulous cleanup

Thousands of times over twenty five years we've heard from homeowners that they were so impressed with our clean up. Our crew knows your yard should look better when we leave than it did when we got there. Others will say that, but we've proven over time we're committed to meticulous clean up on every job.

What Homeowners Say

After careful consultation with arborist/owner Joe Cardin, I brought his crew in to prune my 100+ year-old oak again, and remove some dead ash trees. As always, their communication was great, their service impeccable, and their cleanup thorough. Dan did another masterful job pruning my beloved old oak.

Tom Smith Mature oak pruning

I’ve been working with JCE for years for our business and personal tree care. Recently they did oak pruning that required two men in the canopy for a full day. I was happy that Dan was the foreman assigned to my job. He is a skilled, strong climber and welcomes owner’s suggestions and questions. I was able to consult with the climbers throughout the day… and the end result was outstanding.

We Treat Your Yard Like It's Ours

Property damage is the fear nobody tells you they have until it happens to them — the driveway that gets rutted, the flower bed that doesn't survive the truck, the "quick job" that leaves ruts in the lawn for a season. We've spent 25 years buying equipment specifically chosen to avoid that, not just to get a tree down fast. And we clean up like we're the ones who have to look at your yard tomorrow (because in this community, we probably will)!
