What People Are Saying…

To Whom it May Concern;

The Fire Safe Council of Nevada County has the pleasure of working with Jim Norman the owner of Trees Unlimited. Our history goes back seven years, with him being the successful low-bidder on our chipping program as well as other private, county, state and federal contracts for fuel reduction projects throughout Nevada County.

I personally enjoy working with Jim due to his high level of customer service. He makes my job easier because he goes the extra mile to ensure complete satisfaction. His understanding of silviculture treatment, commitment to the environment, and his esteemed crew makes every job a success. I would highly recommend Jim Norman and Trees Unlimited for any tree pruning, removal or fuel reduction projects you may have.

Sincerely, Joanne Drummond

Executive Director, Fire Safe Council Nevada County

We have been retaining the service of Jim Norman from Trees Unlimited for the past 2 1/2 years. We are approximately 23 acres in Chicago Park. James was hired to cut down trees, skirt trees, clear away acres of manzanita and trim away low hanging branches.

James is an excellent worker with an excessive knowledge about trees and tree maintenance. He follows safety guidelines and makes sure everything is always cleaned up after a job and fire clearance regulations are adhered to. James is very prompt for his scheduled appointments and tried very hard to work around our very busy schedules.

We are satisfied with his work performance and highly recommend him to our friends and neighbors.

Please let Jim know that I absolutely love the work on my trees Jim and his team did last week.

The trees feel light and free but not scalped. Yesterday with the storm I felt so safe and there are no big branches hanging over the house.

Thank you for the fine work. It is so appreciated. Every time I walk out of the house I notice and admire their art!

Fondly, Natalia

To Whom it May Concern;

It is with great pleasure that I write a letter of recommendation for Jim Norman with Trees Unlimited. My in-laws own Gene’s Pine Air Campground located in Washington, CA. They applied for the Washington Fuels reduction grant through the Fire Safe Council to create defensible space in their campground. My wife and I tried for many years to do this on our own but it was simply overwhelming. Thanks to Jim Norman and his well trained workers this feat has been accomplished.

Trees Unlimited did a fantastic job! A very overgrown hillside was thinned of brush which now gives the campground a firebreak that has not been there in the past. Trees were cleared out and shredded, debris and bush were thinned, roadsides cleared and clean. All the workers were very professional and didn’t create problems with the campers or use profanity which we have found to be common place between contractors and their crew. Trees Unlimited was very understanding in abstaining from working on the weekends when the campground was full. Jim’s team went beyond the scope of work that was decided upon. He made sure to keep in touch with us about all aspects of the job and never hesitated to make sure that we were happy with the work that he and his team provided.

We are very pleased to inform you how fantastic Trees Unlimited managed our lands. We greatly appreciate all the hard work and the professionalism shown to us during this project.

Sincerely, Brad and Barbara

Had a 70′  tree come down in a storm in May. The tree fell on a 12′ high fence that wrapped itself around the tree and made the base impossible for me to get out on my own. I made calls to multiple services. This was the only one to call me back. I described what I thought was a big job. They came out with skip loader the same day and had it gone in no time. They were professional, quick (90 min) and reasonable. I can finally get the fence repaired!

Jim Norman and his crew performed tree cutting and clearing services for us today. They did great work, gave super advice and were very reasonable compared to other tree services we employed in the area.  I highly recommend Trees Unlimited.

The hardest working group of men in the Tree Service business.

James Dalton

In late September, we were fortunate enough to find an excellent tree trimming company owned by Jim Norman.

I was first off impressed by the timely manner in which my phone call was returned and a free written estimate was given. Trees Unlimited beat out four other companies in this phase.

My homework then began when checking on two personal/business references and the State of California for licensing and workman’s comp coverage. Trees Unlimited checks out positively in all areas.

It is not often I/we can recommend so highly a contractor. Since then, we have told others about Trees Unlimited, and have been happily thanked for our referral.

Renee

Awesome company! Best tree guys around, very efficient and kind! They come in and get the job done right. I would highly recommend them!

Baily

These guys came out to do some tree work that was very close to my house. They did a great job! Very friendly down to earth folks and every member of the crew was competent in what they did. I was not one bit nervous about something going wrong.

On another occasion I had the pleasure of working with them when they had a huge dead oak that was tucked between 2 homes in Lake Wildwood. There was a Bee hive in the hallow of the tree. The guys braved the bees and saved the hive by lowering that section of tree into a trailer for me. 3-4 years later that hive is still in the log and doing great!

Dobbs Farm

I’ve used Trees Unlimited, on and off, for eight years with outstanding results at very reasonable prices. Jim and his team are simply the best in the business. Period. They work hard and smart and coordinate teamwork like the SF Warriors. Jim is an absolute pro who can cut down the biggest tree without damaging you roses or just trim away branches to open a view. 100% trustworthy. 200% the right choice. And yes, they are loud because they are men cutting down trees – you know – chain saws and yelling instructions to someone 75 feet in the air. Duh. You can trust Jim with your toughest job. I have for years with great results.

Ron Horne

In a word, fantastic. Jim and his crew of professionals did an amazing job. Highly recommend these professionals. As a side light, they even cleaned up after themselves.

William C.

Excellent, we have had them take down several trees on two occasions and I recommend them to all I know. They were able to take several huge cedar trees down with a crane. One of them was almost touching our rain gutter. The minute they are on your property they work. They are always communicating to stay safe. I just called them again.
