Who we work for

Built for the way North Dakota actually lives.

Most of John’s customers are 35 and over, work hard for a steady paycheck, and just don’t have the time, equipment, or knowledge to take on a serious tree job. That’s where we come in.

🏡

Small-Town Homeowners

Yard trees, hazardous limbs near the house, dead branches, stump removal, anything that’s been on the to-do list for too long. Quoted on-site by John.

Plant Workers & Industrial Families

Power plant, mine, and refinery workers across McLean, Mercer, and Oliver counties. Steady paychecks and shift schedules, you don’t have the weekend to mess with a 50-foot cottonwood. John does.
