Reasonable price"I am so grateful we chose Fortson to remove our giant and historic tree! The whole crew was entirely professional, efficient, and mindful of protecting our property. They safely dismantled and removed all pieces of the tree. I was amazed! Frank communicated very well what the process would look like from start to finish and gave us a very fair price. We will definitely use Fortson for all of our future tree service needs."

Great price"We were unfortunate enough to have some pines get infested with beetles. Some of the trees were big enough to threaten 2 homes and some power lines. The crew came out and removed them, cleaned up and hauled all of it off. The price was very fair and all employees were professional. I would definitely call them again for future tree service needs."

Great price"My wife and I had a great experience with Frank and his crew. They showed up the day of on-time and ready to uplift a few hard to reach Oak Trees. The Spider lift was a great tool, they chopped all the limbs that we discussed and then trimed some dead areas to make sure our trees were healthy. Frank had his guys moved everything to the front and his follow on crew did a great job of cleaning up all the debris from every area including some that fell to the neighbors side. When the final person left they ensured that the street was cleaned like it was when they arrived. I definitely recommend you call him up for your tree needs."
