Exceptional knowledge base, thoughtful and fair. I am very happy to be working with this company and highly recommend them. I have several very old, large trees in my yard that are precious to me and I feel great knowing they are in good hands with Happy Tree Service of Austin

We had a bit of a bumpy start with Happy Tree Services but the issue was immediately remedied and they ultimately did an excellent job trimming our live oaks and cedar elms. We will use them again.

I had a very large body of work - removal of large, old, diseased ash tree and a BUNCH of hackberries along my back fence line. I searched for many quotes and Happy Tree was the most competitive. They were also great to work with and did an amazing job! I'll work with them again to plant a new tree this fall

Great, friendly service, reasonably priced! I highly recommend Happy Tree Service of Austin! Evan was courteous, knowledgeable, and provided a very reasonable estimate. His crew completed the work today and did a great job. They showed up right on time, were very respectful of our property, and took the necessary precautions to prevent oak wilt by sterilizing their tools and sealing the cuts. Fantastic service from start to finish!

Happy Trees is always punctual, professional, and organized. Great communication before starting work. Efficient work within the team to complete everything ~1.5hrs. First service we used when we bought the house 6 yrs ago and will continue to call them whenever needed. 🙏

Happy Tree came out to remove a large tree stump. They scheduled quickly. They did a great job removing below grade, and leaving the front yard clean as they left. I would definitely recommend.

Evan came out to take a look at our elder pecan trees, and did a great job explaining to me his recommendations in plain terms. The team sent out a detailed quote, and scheduled service quickly. Service went really well, a tree removal and trimming another tree to extend its life. Happy Tree took care of everything - city permit, service, and clean up. they even left me some wood cut up ready for the fire pit, on request. would highly recommend.

Happy Tree Service of Austin did an excellent job trimming our tree. This is our second time using them. Our tree looks so nice, clean, and well-shaped now. Once the crew arrived, they worked very quickly and efficiently, and the whole process was easy. We’re really happy with the results and would definitely recommend them!

Happy Tree really came through for an emergency situation at a property we manage. After being turned down by 3 other arborists and despite a holiday weekend, Evan and the Happy Tree team showed how much they truly care about their community. Efficient communication and willingness to help turned a serious situation into a giant relief, and our tenants and property owners couldn't be more grateful. 🙏🏻

We simply cannot give enough praise for the work completed on our trees. We have used Certified Tree Service before and they are the only tree service we would consider. They are so professional and have such respect for your yard. When they were finished everything was raked, swept and removed. Thank you Bryan and your team. You will hear from us shortly to tackle our backyard trees,

For a great job at a reasonable cost that combines a high level of professional knowledge and expertise, along with superb customer service, Happy Tree Service of Austin has my highest recommendation I was very pleased with my whole experience with Happy Tree Service, From their prompt response to my initial inquiry on their web site and Evan's subsequent visit to develop an estimate for the job. Evan is knowledgeable and was forthcoming with recommendations to achieve our desired results with the best outcome for the trees without attempting to oversell unnecessary services. His estimate was reasonable for the work needed. When I had questions about scheduling and eventual payment details while awaiting a date for the job, Bailey from the office responded to my emails promptly, professionally and courteously. Happy Tree Service requires payment immediately on completion of the work, which is reasonable, but the crew cannot accept payment. There is a 3% processing fee for credit card payments, a practice I disagree with. In my initial contacts with Bailey at the office we agreed that I could pay with an e-check mailed from my bank and she said they would waive the late fee, if that should happen. The day before the job was scheduled I received an email requiring a 50% deposit, which came as a surprise since it was not mentioned in the original proposal, and the only payment options offered were to allow them access to my checking account, which I never do or pay by credit card. Not wanting to delay the job, I charged the deposit, which upset planned management of my credit balance during the current billing cycle. I called the office and explained the situation and Bailey promptly refunded the payment and confirmed our original payment arrangement. I immediately set Happy Tree Service up as a payee in my bank's online banking, submitted an e-check for the deposit and called Bailey to let her know that the deposit was on its way. The crew appeared on the scheduled date, consulted with us to ensure we agreed on the appropriate limbs targeted for removal, worked efficiently, took all the necessary measures to protect the health of the trees and cleaned up all debris before leaving. In sum, a ten star performance.
