  • Ashley Doran5.0

    Have used them for multiple tree removal, pruning/clean up as well as fall fertilization. Have always had a positive experience with their team. They do great work and take the time to answer questions and explain things in an easy to understand way and will also make suggestions for future care. I found their prices to be very competitive. Would highly recommend them for anyone looking for arborists for big or small jobs.

    Fast and professional.<br>The team came and took down two old spruce trees, a cedar, cable and trim / thin out a couple other trees. It was awesome watching the climber arborist exercise his talent as he climbed and worked. Cutting and landing branches with precision. While the team in the sky bucket made short work of other trees. The ground swamper alternated between taking branchs away and ground trimming trees. No non sense and just getting it done. The whole team worked with such efficiency with no time wasted in between task, they could teach a thing or two to some of our Edmonton road construction crews. My neighbour had a heated moment due to a miscommunication between us and our neighbour. The crew remain respectful and empathetic and helped mitigate the situation while it was worked out. The end result was as we had expected and they check for our satisfaction for the work they had done. They left the site CLEAN!!!<br>I have had recent experience with another Arbor company due to a recent down tree. Comparing the two crews, it is day to night. Arbor man is our "man" + one mighty ground girl.<br>Will follow up with stump grinding review.<br>.<br>.<br>Stump grinding update. Once again, professional job by Adrián. He made sure screens were placed to avoid flying chips in to siding, windows and cars. Taught us how to manage and handle the left over chips. Checked with us on the quality of finished work to the future needs of the site. As per the pictures the site was left cleaned and back filled. Note that a condition required for stump grinding is that the home owner was responsible for clearing out rocks or hard debris surround the tree stump. Not sure if the company would have provided that service at a cost, but did it ourself to save a couple $. Just as across the city This summer's crazy storm has meant surprised bill$. Here's hoping Arbor Man's work has helped us mitigate future risk with our other beautiful trees.

    Arbor Man took care of our storm damaged tree quickly, efficiently, and professionally ... even on a Sunday. The team was friendly and thorough, despite the pressure of dealing with the aftermath of a widespread storm.

Company Background

About Arbor Man Tree Care

Arbor Man Tree Care is one of the older tree companies in Edmonton, operating since 1998 from 1320 77 Avenue NW. Mike Burge is named on the company site as founder and as a Certified Tree Risk Assessment Specialist, and the site says ISA-certified arborists are on staff. It lists a WCB account number, a 5 million dollar liability policy through Northbridge Insurance and logos for TCIA, ISA membership and the COR safety program, so a homeowner can ask for the certificates by name.

The service list goes past removal. Arbor Man prunes, removes, grinds stumps, chips brush, installs cables and braces, injects trees, fertilizes deep roots and diagnoses insect and disease problems. That range suits people with mature elms, spruce and poplars who want a plan rather than a single cut. A spider lift appears on the company site, which helps in tight backyards.

Arbor Man Tree Care has 4.6 stars from 236 Google reviews, read November 7, 2026. Reviewers describe a climbing arborist taking down two old spruce and a cedar, a poplar of roughly 40 feet down in two hours, a big elm trimmed in under half a day, and cleanup that included the garage roof. Ruth wrote that the crew came out on a Sunday after a widespread storm. Ashley has used the company for removal, pruning and fall fertilization.

The rating is the lowest among the companies on this list, so read the recent reviews yourself. Google shows the office open Monday to Friday from 8:00 AM to 6:00 PM and closed on weekends.

Arbor Man suits owners of large mature trees and anyone who wants fertilizing and health care alongside removal. It suits less well a person who can only meet on a weekend. Ask for a written quote with the arborist named, ask for the WCB and insurance certificates, and confirm whether cleanup, wood hauling and stump grinding are included.
