The Heart of Wood Tree Service

Thomas and his gentlemen workers provided a superb experience taking down my 30ft Mulberry Tree as well as stump & root removal. During the estimate appointment, Thomas was incredibly detailed on options with a very fair estimate and he provided advice on a replacement tree (Crape Myrtle). His gentlemen were efficient, very neat about the work area, super friendly and even reset my paving stones. It is like there was never a tree in the first place. You will not be disappointed if you select them!

Our Community needed to address some very large trees at the rear of our property. There is no real easy access due to location. We collected (4) quotes and were given different options from each one. Out of the (4) Heart of Wood came in with the overall best price and the best options. I met with Thomas and immediately knew I was working with someone that knew what they were doing. He looked over the trees and recommended we remove (2) and just trim one up. He was straight forward on our options. He provided several based on what we wanted to spend on the project. His company offered tree removing with no heavy equipment and no disturbance to the property which was exactly what we were looking for this in this project. Thomas had his crew on-site within a week after we made our decision (even with the Thanksgiving holiday). His Crew was amazing, if not for the sounds of chain-saws I would not have even known they were cutting down huge trees with branches extending everywhere. I really cannot describe the stress that we had over this project as the trees were huge and in a precarious spot leaning towards a neighboring community. Thomas from start to finish worked with me via phone, email, and on-site visits. His guys were absolutely amazing to watch as they safely & quickly removed our problems. They did a great job cleaning up and the area looks better than when they started. I could not be more happy with the work they did. Our stress is gone and at a price & option that we can live with, I cannot say enough good things about our experience with Heart of Wood. Definitely will be who we work with for any future tree issues.

TLDR: Heart of Wood just completed work at my property, and I can confidently vouch for their quality and fair pricing. Highly recommend! There are a lot of tree services in the Alexandria area—I’ve spoken to several. Some are excellent but come with high price tags. They were referred to me by a neighbor and I hope this review helps others like me looking for a reliable, fairly priced option. Heart of Wood pruned three trees and removed two for me today. Thomas, the owner, came out earlier in the week to provide an estimate. He was professional, honest, and clear in his communication. I really appreciated that he listened to my needs, didn’t try to upsell, and even gave advice on smaller tasks I could handle myself. His quote was surprisingly affordable, especially compared to others I received—including the kind of too good to be true prices (because they are) you hear from door-to-door tree crews (yes I’m guilty of biting on this one once) . Thomas lives by the motto: “Do it once and do it right,” and I’d add: “…at a reasonable price.” Heart of Wood delivered on both.

Thomas gave a quick and reasonable quote and provided very helpful info on the trees at our new home and even some tips on work we could do ourselves if we wanted. Communication was easy and done via text. Crew did a great job and work was completed as expected.

Thomas and his team was recommended by my neighbor. I was impressed how quickly Thomas returned my call and how promptly he provided a thorough and fairly priced quote. Their work was efficiently done and of high quality. His team went above and beyond by removing a previously cut stump and tree trunk on my property that was not part of the quote. Looking forward to having The Heart of Wood Tree Service do any future work I’ll need done.
