Chris and his team did an incredible job on our property in Whitby. They trimmed our hedges that wrapped on 2 sides and onto the back of our home. They did a phenomenal job and our backyard looks so much better and brighter. The guys were polite and helpful. They took care of the lawn debris and cleaned up the lawn after they completed their job. One guy who's name is also Chris found my neighbor's phone on the road and gave it back to him. They even went above and beyond by cutting the dead bushes in front of our home when we asked for a favor. I would recommend Sarginson's tree services to all my neighbors and friends!

Thanks guys!

We hired Sarginsons Tree Services to chip some wood piles and grind a couple of stumps and they were absolutely amazing. Chris and his team got the work done quickly and professionally and communicated exceptionally. In addition, the cleanup was done so well that you would never have known there had been piles of tree limbs before or that wood chipping had even occurred. Highly recommend them and will use them for all our future tree cutting needs.

After getting into contact with a few companies Sarginson’s Tree Services was the most professional and understandable company. Others were rude and didn’t really seem to care about what I said. I will 100 percent be recommending Sarginson’s to anybody that needs these services. Professional, quick and kind. Great work guys, 10 out of 10!

We recently had a tree removed and were extremely impressed with the entire experience. The team was professional, efficient, and clearly knew what they were doing. The equipment they used was top-notch, and it was obvious they invest in the right tools to get the job done safely and properly. What really stood out was the cleanup 🥰 everything was left spotless, as if the tree had never been there. Highly recommend their services to anyone needing tree removal. 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

The crew from Sarginsons Tree Services were top notch. Skilled at tree removal, we had 3, and excellent cleanup. Because of the snow, they ploughed the area where the trees were to be dropped which made for a thorough cleanup. The crew were polite and didn’t cut corners. Stacked wood where requested. The price was better than we’ve had with other companies. We will not hesitate to call Sarginsons again!

We used Sarginson’s tree service twice this year to address severe damage caused by the ice storm in April. We were so very impressed with this company! Both times the work was completed with care and expertise. The team was wonderful and everything looked fantastic when they were done. We found Chris, who provided the on-site quotes, to be very knowledgeable and provided fair pricing. We also appreciated that this company is excellent when it comes to difficult areas to reach and they come with all the equipment necessary to complete the work safely. The office staff are also well organized and a pleasure to deal with. We will definitely be using them again next year!

Chris removed a 30 year old poplar from our backyard that grown to over 75 feet tall. Chris arrived early as scheduled on Oct 16 with a team of 6 people, and they worked incredibly hard to cut the tree down limb by limb. They were incredibly efficient, clean, and even my neighbour was super impressed with how well they did the job, and did not leave a single leaf on either of our backyards as they cleaned up. Would highly recommend Chris and his team for any tree work you need.

We used Sarginson's to trim back our big English oak tree. They had the proper equipment and did a great job. They cleaned up the cuttings and were done in approximately one hour. They communicated with us at every step along the way. Chris and his crew were excellent to deal with.
We wouldn't hesitate to recommend this company for any tree work.

Chris and his crew removed a 60+ year old Silver Maple and a dead Ash tree from our yard. They did a great job removing the trees and cleaning up the yard after removal. They work quickly, efficiently and safely. I would recommend them without hesitation.

Chris and his team did an exceptional job removing several large trees from our property. They arrived punctually with all the necessary equipment and took great care to protect our lawn by laying down protective tracks, allowing the heavy cherry picker truck to access the trees without causing damage. The crew was well-organized, with multiple team members efficiently cutting and clearing debris. They used 2 wood chippers to process branches and worked swiftly while maintaining a strong focus on safety.

What truly set them apart was their meticulous cleanup—when they were done, the area was spotless. Chris is highly knowledgeable about tree health and diseases, and he provided valuable guidance on which trees needed to be removed and which could be preserved. Beyond his professionalism, he was genuinely a pleasure to work with—just an all-around nice guy. I highly recommend his services without hesitation.

For anyone needing tree services, look no further than Sarginson's! They deliver on efficiency, capability, and professionalism, all while offering genuinely reasonable pricing. Their estimate was so fair, I had to ask if they were sure! Our 50-year-old Norway maple was safely removed in less than 90 minutes, with the stump gone just a couple of days later. Their quick and reliable service provides excellent value, and I'd absolutely use them again.

My husband and I contacted Sarginsons Tree Services to remove a large, unhealthy maple tree from our backyard. Chris and his team showed up on time and well prepared. The job was completed in a timely manner and the team cleaned up after themselves. I would highly recommend Chris and Sarginsons Tree Services, as they exceeded my expectations.

Chris and his team did a phenomenal job removing an old, rotting tree from my backyard. Before starting the job, Chris came to the house to provide a quote and answer any questions. He is a very knowledgeable and friendly person. He explained the “how” and the “why” behind the problems with our tree and how he would remove the tree and stump. On the day of the job, Chris and his team showed up on time and took very little time to remove the tree. I was so impressed with how efficiently the team operated (this is reflected by their google reviews) and even more impressed with their clean up job. They literally left my property cleaner than it was before - truly impressive. I would highly recommend Chris and his team to anyone looking for any tree related services and I would not hesitate to use them again. They are extremely hardworking and nothing but professional. Thanks again!

Highly recommend Chris and his team from Sarginson’s Tree Removal Services from Courtice. Chris removed a large sugar maple tree from backyard in Oshawa that was very close to house and garage and extending over to neighbours. It took 8 hrs to remove the tree and cleanup. Chris is very skilled and knowledgeable. His quotes and options provided were very reasonable and all communication was excellent. He and team worked diligently, safely and were professional and polite. A bucket truck was used to reach part of tree but for most part Chris had to climb the tree to cut down each limb carefully and they used ropes to guide. They cut up wood (as requested) and even stacked for me. (I saved some $ by not having logs removed)They removed all smaller branches and debris and used a chipper. They swept and blew away shavings as part of cleanup.
I was very satisfied with the job and Chris. Would recommend for tree removal. (I didn’t get tree stump grinded as an extra cost, but may do later)

Chris and his team are super efficient and informative. He came out gave me a quote and then measured the trees to make sure that they were able to be removed. All trees passed and within no time he was back to complete the work with his team. We will be using his services again in the spring.

What a dream it was working with Chris. He is so professional - prompt - and best of all his price was so fair! He went above and beyond at my house from start to finish and the job is perfect. Thank you to this amazing team for getting the job done quickly and with 0 hiccups. Have recommended them to family who have already got quotes and are having the work done this week! 10/10 would recommend.

We hired Chris and his team to take down our massive 55 year old willow tree and 2 other trees. They also pruned two others. They were here early and stayed late until everything was finished. They cleaned up the yard after and took all the wood with them! Very hard workers. They offered to leave some of the wood that is good for burning, which we weren't aware of. So now we have firewood as well! 10/10 will use them again and would recommend to anyone! Thanks guys for the amazing job. Here are some photos of during and after!

Chris and his team at Sarginson's Tree Service did an absolutely phenomenal job removing a large tree off my property. The tree was very close to the house, causing concern. However, they were able to remove the tree and all branches / debris without provoking any damage to the building or lawn. They were quick, professional and completely tidied everything up when they were done.

This crew went over and above my expectations. If you want a quality service, please hire Sarginson's Tree Service ! ! !

Many thanks ! ! !

I will be recommending your company to everyone I know ! ! !

Recently Chris and his team remove a huge maple from our front yard (needed to go). It was about 80 feet tall and was within 8 feet of our house. I watched in amazement as they took the tree down and was totally impressed with both their bravery and professionalism. The clean up after was fantastic and he even cut a few large slices for me to use in the future for a woodworking project.
I would highly recommend them for tree care services

Sugar Maple Tree Removal

Great job by Chris and his team at Sarginsons Tree Services to remove my large sugar maple tree in the backyard. Tree was in an awkward position as very close to a sunroom on one side, a garage and then neighbours to other side. Chris and team were very skilled, professional, polite, and worked safely. Quote and options were reasonable priced too. They worked tirelessly for 8 hours to cut tree and cut wood (as requested) and stacked. Chris used combination of a bucket truck to reach tree and hours of climbing tree and using chainsaw and rope method. They removed limbs and brush using a chipper. They cleaned up area afterwards.

Fantastic service, tree removed and stump. Did not know they where even here. Great customer service from Chris

Helen, TorontoNovember, 2022

Job: Dealing with a problem tree in a neighbours yard

A neighbour’s mulberry tree has plunged our back yard into total shade for years. Chris came to take a look and was able to make a recommendation that would both allow for sun and maintain the integrity of the tree. The work was done efficiently and on time and we are thrilled with the results.

Pam, TorontoOctober, 2022

Job: Reducing the size of a fir

Chris and his team seemed very organized and were so pleasant to work with. They arrived early and cut my 48 ft. balsam fir tree in the time they said it would take. I watched in awe as Chris climbed the tall slender tree, and meticulously cut section by section while communicating with his ground crew.
