The work

Professional tree care services in New Orleans

Six official offers, from tip to stump. Estimates include debris cleanup. Tree planting is on the quote form when a new stem belongs in the hole. That is the full list from the Gentilly shop: removal, trimming and maintenance, cabling and bracing, stump grinding, debris hauling, and arborist reports — tree services in New Orleans written as a working menu, not a slogan.

01

Tree Removal

Undesirable trees can pose a significant threat to a home and detract from the feel of the landscape. Johntilly Tree Services covers the job from tip to stump — tree services in New Orleans that take the whole stem, not just the easy wood.

Trimming & Maintenance

Like all things in life, trees need maintenance. Johntilly protects the investment with pruning and soil amendment services — the kind of regular care a live oak or pecan in Gentilly actually needs, not a once-a-decade hack.

Tree Cabling and Bracing

Sometimes trees just need a hand. Large structural limbs that might pose a risk can be saved by cabling them to a strong point, usually on the main trunk. A licensed arborist decides if the limb stays.

Stump Grinding

When an undesirable tree occupies a prime spot in the yard, the stump must be ground out in order to replant in that same spot. No stump is too large or too small for Johntilly.

Debris Hauling & Removal

All work estimates include debris cleanup and removal. When the crew leaves the property it will look and feel better than when they arrived. That line is on the official offer, not a hope.

How a visit works

Call, walk the tree, climb on rope

A small team. Safety as the priority. Debris on the estimate. That is the official rhythm, not a franchise script.

  1. Call or write John

    The shop number is (504) 596-5377. The email is johnforyourtrees@gmail.com. Say the street in New Orleans and whether you need removal, a trim, a cable, a stump, or a report.

  2. Walk it with an arborist

    John Hunter is a licensed New Orleans arborist. If the trees are a puzzle, an arborist report is on the list. The point is a decision, not a guess from the driveway.

  3. Rope access, then a cleaner yard

    Johntilly specializes in aerial rope access. Estimates include debris cleanup and removal. When they leave, the property should look and feel better than when they arrived.
