5 Stars – Outstanding Emergency Tree Service!
I had an unexpected emergency when a major tree branch came down, sheared my fence, and fell into my neighbor’s yard. I called Hufnagel Tree Service and within 10 minutes, Mike—the owner—was in my yard assessing the situation. By 10am the very next morning, Mike and his team were back on my property, ready to handle the job.

Not only was their response incredibly fast and efficient, but the price for this emergency work was shockingly affordable. I was beyond impressed with their professionalism, friendliness, and the quality of the work.

It’s rare to find a local business that you can truly trust in a pinch, and Hufnagel Tree Service delivered above and beyond. Mike and his crew are licensed, certified arborists, and it shows in the excellence of their work.

I highly recommend Hufnagel for any tree service—emergency or otherwise. I’ll definitely be calling them for all of my future tree needs. Thank you again to Mike and the entire team—you’re phenomenal!

Review for Mike Hufnagel Tree Service
I had an excellent experience with Mike Hufnagel Tree Service. Mike was incredibly prompt, arriving exactly when he said he would, and carried out the job in a very professional manner. His pricing was extremely fair, especially considering the high quality of work he delivered. On top of that, he went above and beyond by taking care of a few extra things that weren’t even part of the original agreement—at no additional cost. It’s rare to find that kind of service these days. I would definitely recommend Mike Hufnagel Tree Service to anyone in need of tree work. You won’t be disappointed!

Mike was great to work with, always reachable and answering all my questions as we planned to remove and stump grind two ailanthus trees adjacent to my garage. He was also a wonderful resource as I considered replacement options, a testament to his knowledge as a certified arborist. On the day of, his team did a fantastic job, completing the removal carefully, efficiently and cleaning up everything immaculately.

We have worked with Mike and Hufnagel Tree Service several times for tree removal and pruning and will continue to do so in the future! They are very responsive, reasonably priced, easy to schedule with, and do quality work. Mike provides great insight into tree health and helps you make the best decisions to care for the trees in your yard without trying to upsell you on unnecessary services. Would highly recommend!

Great service and quality work. I have been using Hufnagel for the past 15 years and they always do a first-rate job. The crew are always on time, do a remarkable job, and leave the place neat and clean. Just had a tree trimmed on my neighbor's property that was over-hanging on my house. Hufnagel did professional work in about 2 or 3 hours. Highly recommend them.
