I contacted Progressive Tree Service to request a quote to remove a large dead tree in our back yard, as well as a few branches from surrounding trees that were too close to wires and the roof. They were incredibly thorough, professional, efficient and reasonable. They are excellent at what they do and honestly made it look like an art form. Very careful and thoughtful with the trees. I whole heartedly recommend them and am so glad we chose them for this work.

Progressive has a very professional, responsive, competent, and thorough team that removed 2 very large trees at our home in West Ridge. Diego communicated readily about all aspects of the work and was just great to work with. And the price of the completed work was fair and competitive with other proposals we received. We would certainly use them again and would recommend them to others very comfortably.

Positive: Professionalism, Responsiveness
Juan came out to inspect a sick tree. He was courteous and professional, gave information about how to treat our sick tree. Unfortunately, he was not able to provide services, but solid advice. In the future, I will be calling Progressive Tree Service for our future tree needs. Two thumbs up!

Not only was Progressive Tree Service the most responsive company I contacted, their pricing, professionalism, and skill were amazing. They are capable and brave, besides being tremendously skilled. They removed an old locust tree that must have been six stories high. Everyone, from the office staff to those who worked on our job was great. I could not be happier and will definitely call Progressive for any work of this type in the future. Highly recommended. PS) their pricing is quite fair.

These guys are true professionals. I had a damaged tree coming out of the ground that was leaning toward my house. They were able to get me on the schedule for the following day. When they arrived to remove the tree the foreman (Eloy) noticed that another tree nearby had split at the base and was in danger of falling on our house. They were able to remove both trees by the end of the day. They are clearly a highly skilled and efficient crew. I would recommend them to anyone requiring this kind of service.

Best prices in town. Family owned and great customer service. I've had many quotes and I loved how Juan was no nonsense straight to the point and amazing work. Juan and his men did everything they agreed to take out and more. My neighbor did not believe us when we said progressive tree service will remove the tree entirely, stump, roots and all with the quoted price. Will recommend this company to all. Very happy!

I was about to contract with another tree removal company when I learned about Progressive. Turns out they are a family business with both the front office and work crews consisting of brothers, sisters and cousins. Wanting to support individuals over large companies, I researched them and when everything looked good hired them to remove a 75 yr. old Honey Locust that stood over 40 feet tall. I am incredibly happy I did. They are honest and professional and truly care about their work and reputation.

"I think that I shall never see, a poem lovely as a tree" is what Joyce Kilmer wrote in her poem Trees. I don't disagree, but what Kilmer leaves out is how expensive it is to own trees. We learned early on to budget for annual tree maintenance.
In the past we've used The Care of Trees and overall were quite happy until last year when getting a quote and getting on the schedule was a major headache. This year, I got quotes from a few places, hoping to avoid the hassle. Progressive started out strong, they reached out right away and came out for a quote. We choose Progressive

Progressive came last week and we could not be any more satisfied with their work. We went for bid to trim two trees in our yard and of the five companies, they were not the low bid but their price was very competitive. The actual trimming, cleanup and overall service were too notch. I will recommend Progressive to anyone looking for tree service. This is a family run and operated business, so you know you are dealing with the owners who actually care about their service and reputation, and it shows. Top notch.

We had a large tree limb fall from a storm and Progressive Tree Service came out to provide a quote for removal in under 48 hours, and between the 5 companies. They were the cheapest by far. It was a large chunk of tree and they had a two man crew come out and had the debris gone within an hour. What would have easily been a full day job for myself, they powered through and had it gone in what seemed like an instant. Will definitely hire them again in the future with any tree needs we have!

Buyer beware - Dishonest business.
I purchased a face cord of firewood, which as any reputable dealer (or a google search) will tell you is a stacked pile of wood that measures 4 ft x 8 ft x 1.5 ft . It's a standard measurement. What was delivered was approximately 2 ft x 8 ft x 1.5 ft - A FULL 50% SHORT OF ADVERTISED.
I talked to the owner and he said that they "call it" a face cord, but since they also say that it's about 200 pieces, that's what they go by - the piece count. Now, of course a face cord could very easily only contain about 200 pieces if they are

Someone was supposed to come out and look at my trees to give me an estimate. No one was going to be home so I left my back gate open for them to come in and Survey the trees. After not hearing from anyone for 2 days I contacted the company and which I was told someone would get back to me. After waiting another three days and still not hearing anything I contacted the company again just to be told that once again someone would get back with me. To this day I still don't know if anyone came out into my yard to survey my trees to give me an estimate. As of now I still haven't heard back

Updating my review: Diego called me and apologized for the mess/damage they caused. He was extremely apologetic and explained that they had every intention of cleaning up the deck before they left but in the midst of everything going on (there was a moving crew here for a tenant in the building) it got forgotten. He sounded sincere and offered to pick up new plants for me. I was reimbursed by my neighbor. Again, he was extremely apologetic and appreciated the phone call/offer. They have given me a head's up on their next work day so I can be prepared which was much appreciated. I am bumping

We had a great experience working with Progressive Tree Service on removing a dead tree in our yard. From start to finish, Juan Carlos Martinez and team were extremely professional and easy to work with.
When I asked Juan to assess the condition of our tree as a certified arborist, he was able to drop by the same morning, since he was working in the area. He made a reasonable case that the tree was dead and would need to be removed. He answered all my questions and sent a proposal the same day, which also ended up being the exact end price.
The team removed the tree within a week on a single

Initially I hired another company to trim my trees. When the other company started trimming they immediately got down from the tree and recommended me to remove it because it was "dead". I decided to get a second opinion and contacted progressive tree service. A few days latter I met with Juan and found out there was nothing wrong with my tree and all it needed was some pruning.
