B&G Tree Trimming deserves more than 5 stars! They are amazing to work with, by far the most affordable of the 5 tree services we had out for estimates. He was the only arborist who actually took the time to pull out his license and show me he is licensed, bonded & insured. Watching him up in the trees is the equivalent of watching a ballerina pirouette across a stage, only with chainsaws & ropes instead of tutus & tights. He has been studying his craft since he was 10 years old and is an artist in his own right. He took down a HUGE tree that had less than 60% life & restored/trimmed a tree that had 80% life...both of which were planted within 2 feet of my cinderblock walls/property lines with huge dead branches hanging over my neighbors property. He also educated me on how to make this tree thrive again once the dead was removed & cheaper/better ways to fertilize my trees then actual tree fertilizer. He also removed a completely dead pinon tree in the front yard hanging over the street. He was the only arborist who did not talk about taking down my fence to bring a cherry picker into my yard, he does it the old fashioned way with ropes, saddles, chainsaws, spikey boots & assistants on the ground gracefully choreographing huge branches safely against gravity & wind to the ground. They are respectful regarding bathroom break needs of dogs & are dog owners themselves. They left my yard cleaner than they found it, their wood chipper & equipment are extremely clean considering the dirty dusty work they do. It was absolutely fascinating to watch them from beginning to end. They achieved a great deal of work in a short amount of time. I will never look elsewhere for another tree trimmer/arborist so long as we reside in New Mexico!
