These guys are amazing! 70 ft tree leaning and ready to fall into power lines, due to winter storm and high winds. I called for help, and they responded within the hour, on a Friday, late afternoon!. Daryl went over his plan for this hazardous teetering tree, giving advice and options, making sure we understood what was going to happen.
There cautious expertise was amazing, as they managed to secure, and fall this tree without damage to surrounding trees and power lines. It was impressive watching them work togeher, so efficiently in windy and freezing temps. They cut 16" rounds, and branches were stacked, ready for chipping The price was very reasonable. They were professional and personable. You will not find A Better Choic tree serice than Daryl, Heidi and their team!

We called them out on a Friday before a holiday weekend to see a tree that we just then noticed was about to fall down. Daryl came out to assess the situation, saw it needed to come down, and took it down that day. His crew came out the next day to cut it up and clean up the yard. We could not have been more pleased. It’s amazing to find people who will help you out like that right away…especially on a holiday weekend.

Thank you, Daryl, for helping me with my lawn care. I got quotes from many businesses, and this one gave me the best price. They took care of everything as promised, and I will look to hire them again next year.Service: Tree removal

We had an extremely difficult tree removal job which this company excelled at accomplishing! Three HUGE trees in a corner of a backyard which was difficult to access and involved not damaging a fence, a rock retaining wall, a stone walkway, and many plants. The owners were careful in all aspects of their work, and cleaned up each evening beyond expectations, to the point of replacing a gate nightly which had to be removed to access equipment to the area! Yard was cleaned up each night! They also cleaned up neighbors backyards which had some branches, etc fall into their yard.Daryl and crew also did a wonderful job at trimming some large fir and cedar trees in our yard!! Also… other companies said stumps could not be ground due to difficult access, but Daryl did it!!We will definitely use this company again! Thank you for the fine work! We know it was a VERY difficult job!!Services: Tree stump grinding

I had a tree get blown over during a recent severe windstorm; a lot of the Vancouver area was experiencing downed trees at the same time. Yet, Heidi @ ABC was able to get people out THAT EVENING to check the situation, and give me a reasonable quote for the tree removal. They came out the NEXT DAY to trim away excess branches, and to install tarps to cover the holes in the roof the tree had made. They then came out with special equipment to gently hoist the tree away from my house and onto the ground, and then were able to push the tree to a safe location in the greenbelt behind my house, being very careful to not let the tree strike the house on the way down. They cleared the branches from the roof and roof valleys, and gutters, and cleaned up everything once they were done. They did a GREAT JOB, were easy to work with, and I'm glad I called them!!!Service: Tree removal

Daryl his crew were fantastic. They did everything I wanted and more. They did not rush their work. They were thoughtful in their trimming and pruning of my trees and shrubs. They left the yard better than they found it. They made sure to cover my water feature to keep debris out of the stream and pond and raked up the flowerbeds and lawn of all the smaller debris. Blew the lawn and patio, chipped and took away all wood debris. I will definitely have them back for other cleanup in the spring. Reasonably priced, hard working professional that strives for customer satisfaction. I highly recommend them.Services: Cabling & bracing

I hired a company to cut down a tree at my home. The contractor that was referred to me was not bonded and the license has been suspended. A Better Choice LLC helped me find the other business and came right out and finished the work. This is a wonderful honest replicable and accountable business. They were so helpful with information and response. Great job!Services: Tree trimming & pruning

Daryl and his team cut down a 90ft Douglas Fir tree that bordered a neighbor, a fence, surrounded by other various sized trees/plants, and two large stumps. They cut the tree down into 16" rounds in one day. Not the most easily accessible to do the job. They were efficient and fast. The level of excellent customer service was unexpected. Daryl graciously repaired the broken fence for free! Heidi communicated and navigated the permitting process with the City of Vancouver directly on my behalf. They're returning in a few months to plant our replacement tree. Definitely "A Better Choice" for all your tree service/landscaping needs. Firewood anyone?

Daryl and his crew have been great to work with. This is actually our 2nd time using them. First time for stump removal and this time for removing a 30+ foot tree in our backyard. The crew removing the tree showed up early and got it done quickly while it was POURING rain. They have been and will be our go to.Edit: We used Daryl and Team again and could not be any happier. We had a project of trimming some Herbavita that have been neglected and damaged from snow. In addition some blackberry.They also are handling a driveway clearing and graveling.Again they are the best.Services: Tree stump grinding

April 2022: After a sudden snow storm left a mess of tree limbs and an unsafe tree in my yard, the team from A Better Choice were able to come out quickly and clean up the debris and prune the tree so the remaining limbs were safe. They also removed some old dying bushes and opened up my front yard and porch to a much better view! They completed the job in under and hour and for a great rate! The team was super nice, knowledgeable, and did a great job including clean up. I will use them always and recommend them to my friends and neighbors.February 2021: The service was excellent! They were able to get here right away during a very busy time after the snow and ice of February 2021. They had the limb down off the roof and everything cleaned up in an hour. They were COVID safe with masks and social distancing . I love that I was able to use a locally owned business and was treated as a neighbor as well as a customer. I will definitely use them again!Services: Tree removal

Based off good reviews I went with these guys for trimming branches away from my roof, this was the only reason I had them come out. Got a call at 8:30 when they were supposed to show up saying that they couldn’t come, then another call saying they could. Showed up at 9:30, took a 45 minute break at 10:30. When I came out to discuss branches that were still over the house they stopped working and waited for the owner to show up and argue the scope of work with me. The work they did was good, but they didn’t complete the job, would not use again or recommend.Service: Tree trimming & pruning

Heidi and Darryl are great, they took care of a huge cedar tree for my neighbor and I. They are honest and transparent about the work that needs to be done and their prices are very fair.They told me what they recommended and why, and didnt pressure me into paying for anything I didnt want or need. I would recommend them to anybody who needs an arborist. They are easy to work with, go the extra mile, and are just good people overall.

They did a fantastic job for us and took down a tree that most other companies said would be too difficult to tackle without a crane. We've used A Better Choice twice now and will continue to use them
