Atlas Tree Service

Two days ago during a severe wind storm one of my 50ft plus pine trees in the back yard appeared to be uprooting itself. We watched all day as the ground appeared to break apart more with each passing hour until the tree really looked as if it were going to fall any minute. I had some tree work done by Atlas within the past 6 months and was pleased with their service so called them in a slight panic regarding what to do with this swaying pine tree. Even though it was later in the day, Brooke, who answered their phone was very helpful in asking questions and when it came to the question of if I thought the tree could fall on my house and answered yes, she replied that Johnny, the owner of the company would be to my house within the hour. He arrived in less than an hour, assessed the situation and wrote an estimate to which we agreed to go forward with the removal of the tree. He had a crane to my house in record time and the tree was safely removed and placed outside the fence on the street to be completely removed the following morning. Johnny was so calm and professional despite our emotional concerns at the loss of such a beautiful tree from our yard. We understood it needed to come down and I can’t say enough how appreciative I am at how quickly everything was handled. Johnny said there would be a crew to remove the tree the next morning and by 9:30 they were already outside to work once confirmed they were at the right address. The crew even came back in our yard to rake up debris left by the removal the previous night. I will continue to use this company for my tree services and highly recommend their thorough work and professionalism.

I ended up hauling 5 loads of material to the dump. They fell a tree on my corral panels bending two of them. They drove over an irrigation box, breaking it and a valve that I had to replace. They did not show up on time any of the three days of a «one day job». They didn’t have enough equipment to haul off the material and left the material on the ground to be removed «sometime» after Labor Day weekend. The crews left their empty soda cans and water bottles for me to clean up. All of their chain saws broke down as did their stump grinder.
I assure you, they will never receive a penny from myself or those that I know again.

Be careful if using Atlas for firewood! I have had them deliver firewood several times over the past 18 months. The first time I was just moving in and didn’t have my wood racks, so I couldn’t measure it properly. However, they delivered a lot of chunks and pieces of wood vs. the logs I was expecting. The next two times they delivered, they shorted me 30% the first time and 40% the second time. Strike three, you’re out. Make sure you measure the amount of wood they bring. They always came back and delivered more wood when I complained, but what a hassle this was.
Too bad, I liked them for my tree service, but if you can’t trust someone, oh well.

After I bought my house, I called Atlas Trees to help prune two large Spruce Trees that hadn’t been properly cared for by the previous owner and the branches were growing on to the house causing problems with the shingles. Atlas did an amazing job pruning and thinning the growth to maintain privacy and to help the health of the tree and my house. My older neighbor, a landscaper with years of experience asked me who had done the job because of how good the trees look now. Not only did they work on the spruces but they also pruned a chestnut and 2 hazelnut trees in the back to keep them healthy and to help give my deck more shade in the summer. I can’t recommend them enough. They are professional, skilled and knowledgeable about what your trees need depending on the type of tree.

I felt compelled to write a review for Atlas Tree because of my recent experience.
Last November I called Atlas to give me a bid on my Grandmothers Cottonwood Heights property. It was too technical for me to do it myself. She has one large pine tree and several cottonwood trees that boarder her neighbors property. Many dead branches that needed to be cleared out.
A rep from Atlas came out, on time (wish the cable companies were as punctual) to give us the rundown. He was straightforward and honest on his bid and very knowledgeable. Instead of removing one set of branches I thought were dead, they recommended treatment instead. The crew came out a week later and did a clean, efficient job.
A few month have past and the trees are doing great even with all the snow pack!
I’d highly recommend this business for anyone needed tree work, care or removal. Thanks Atlas!

Did an awesome job. Reasonable rates. Great to work with and extremely knowledgeable and conscientious about their work.
