Responsive, Professional, Great Job

“I’m a property owner and have used Green Tree Environmental on both commercial and residential properties. Scott was very responsive to our urgent needs. He returned my call immediately after normal hours and was on site with dryers, water vacuum cleaner, etc. when a waterline broke and flooded our building.I have also had a mold issue in 2 houses that his company remediated. They were professional, did a great job. I will definitely use their services in the future.”

Quick, Knowledgeable, Highly Recommended!

“Our basement flooded due to a failed sump pump. We had waterlogged carpets, ruined possessions, and a seemingly endless amount of water. Although Scott was doing work for other customers, he came out right away and set up several fans, dehumidifiers and air scrubbers that completely dried up the basement and prevented any water damage/mold from formulating on the drywall or any other spots. He also communicated with our insurance company on our behalf saving us time. We can’t say enough good things about Scott and Green Tree Environmental.”

Expertise, Responsiveness, Two Thumbs Up!!

“The two adjectives that come to mind for this company are expertise and responsiveness. Having a water backup issue in my cellar, I contacted the company and spoke with Scott, a very knowledgeable and personable guy. He immediately brought out machines to start drying things out and explained his next steps in the process. He kept me well informed throughout, which I really appreciated. He did an excellent job for me. Two thumbs up!”

Professional, Personable, Highly Recommended!

We found mold in our mudroom and started contacting companies. Scott with Green Tree Environmental answered immediately and gave very helpful information over the phone and came to our home to complete the mold removal process within a very reasonable time frame. Scott is very kind, professional, has immense knowledge of his trade and made us feel at ease. His pricing is very reasonable especially for the amount of time and care he gives to his clients. We could not recommend Green Tree Environmental more and will for sure use them for any future needs.”
