What reviewers think

Emerald delivers consistent, skilled tree care backed by ISA-certified arborists. Michael and Bill D. are named repeatedly for diagnosing difficult diseases (cedar apple rust, fungal blight) and saving trees others would remove. Cleanup is meticulous; yards are left immaculate. Long-term customers report 10+ years of steady service. One recent review raised a serious concern about an employee's personal conduct and breach of confidentiality, but the vast majority praise professionalism and knowledgeable staff.

Their practice spans disease treatment, cabling, feeding, pest control, and removal. They serve substantial properties in Greenwich and Fairfield County. Crew responds on schedule, explains work clearly, and takes time to check on recovery. Testimonials from a country club and multi-decade clients suggest dependable, attentive follow-up and a focus on long-term plant health over quick fixes.
