What Our Clients Say

Excellent job. They arrived as they stated they would and went above and beyond to make sure we got exactly what we wanted. There was a duck with a nest in one of the trees they were trimming and my wife was concerned that they would be a disturbance to the duck… To my surprise they trimmed the tree and the duck was not even bothered… made my wife’s heart happy!! They cleaned up as they said they would. I highly recommend them for any tree service you may need 🙂

Amber Dixon, via Google

We needed a full tree canopy overhaul and Mark, Kevin and Josh came in and took expert care of our trees. The professionalism and making sure they did little to no damage to any existing plants (we have a yard full mind you) was so appreciated. We highly recommend Southern Earthworks for your next tree analysis and removal. We were so impressed with their total cleanup each day so make sure you give them a call.

Called the day prior with an emergency need for tree service. Mark & his crew showed up early to the job and took care of our needs. Site was cleared of all debris and crew was safe & courteous throughout the process. Will always be our go-to for tree service! 10/10 recommend!
