EXCELLENT Based on 43 reviews Heather KimmAugust 15, 2025.Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I highly recommend- everything looks amazing - he removed a tree and then trimmed a living tree and I didn’t even know it could look so good!!! Dane MarkhamAugust 1, 2025.Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. My tree got struck by lightning. Greg came the very next day, gave a very honest assessment, and an unbelievably reasonable quote compared to other arborists in the area. I definitely couldn’t recommend his professionalism, honesty, and service any higher. Sarah WaltonJuly 25, 2025.Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Greg did a great job with trimming a tree in my front yard and removing a bunch of mulberry saplings that were growing next to my house. He came exactly when he said he would to assess and give me the estimate. He emailed me the day before he came for the job. I could not be more pleased with his excellent communication, education, and expertise. Price was very reasonable and I plan to use It’s Gotta Go tree services for any future tree trimming/removal needs.

Greg did an amazing job removing a rather cumbersome tree stump from our yard. He was expedient and professional. His communication and friendly attitude made my decision to go with him all the more easy. Would 1000% go with Greg for any future tree related services.

Greg is friendly, answered all my questions in person & by email, gave least expensive quote, prompt in service, removed my tree quickly & stump grinding was better than I hoped for!
