AJ Tree Expert and Landscape LLC takes down, trims, and grinds out trees across Reading and Berks County, then rebuilds the ground around them with mulch, sod, patios, and retaining walls. Free estimates, and the yard raked clean before we pull out.
One company for the tree that has to come down and the yard that has to look good afterward. Every job walked, priced in writing, and cleaned up before we leave.
Whole-tree takedowns, including the tight ones over the roof and the power line
A dead oak leaning over a Reading rowhome and a storm-split maple in an open Berks County field are two completely different jobs. We rig, section, and lower the hard ones piece by piece so nothing lands on your roof, your fence, or your neighbor's driveway, and we drop the easy ones fast so you aren't paying for theater. Every removal quote is walked and priced on site, so you know what the tree costs before a saw comes off the truck. When the tree is down, the wood is cut and hauled, the ropes come out of the canopy above, and the ground gets raked so the only evidence is the sky where the tree used to be.
Heavy work, done carefully. Cleaned up before we go.
Six things that decide whether a tree job goes well or goes expensive — and how we handle each one.

01
Insured Before We Climb
A tree over your roof is a liability question before it's a price question. We carry coverage and you can see it before we start.
02
Rigged, Not Dropped
Tight lots get sectional takedowns with ropes and lowering devices. Slower on site, and nothing lands where it shouldn't.
03
Cuts That Don't Kill Trees
Pruned to the collar, never topped, and never spiked on a live tree. A bad trim is just a slow removal.
04
Everything Hauled Away
Wood cut and loaded, brush chipped, ground raked and blown. No pile left at the curb for you to deal with.
05
Priced on Site, in Writing
We walk the job, look at the access and the targets, and hand you a real number. No phone quotes that change on arrival.
06
One Crew, Two Trades
The company that takes the tree down also grinds the stump, fixes the grade, and lays the sod. One call, one invoice.

Our Promise
We Don't Leave Until the Ground Is Clean.
Plenty of tree companies will take a tree down. Fewer will chip the brush, load the wood, chase the sawdust off your driveway, and rake the beds before they go. That last hour is the part people remember, and it's included in every price we quote — never an add-on, never a separate line.

What Berks County Says About Us
Ready When You Are
Let's look at that tree
Send a few details or a photo and we'll come out, walk the property, and give you a written price — free.
It depends on the size of the tree, what's underneath it, and how close we can get a truck. A 40-foot maple in an open backyard and the same tree hanging over a roof and a service drop are very different jobs. That's why every estimate is free and done on site — we look at the access and the targets, then give you a written price that doesn't change on the day of the work.
Yes, and it's included in the price unless you ask us to leave the wood. Brush gets chipped into the truck, trunks are bucked and loaded, and we rake and blow the work area before we leave. You should not be looking at a brush pile after we go.
We do. If a tree is down on a structure, a vehicle, or across your driveway, call (610) 698-5582 and tell us what it's touching — those calls move to the front of the schedule. If a wire is involved, stay away from it and call the utility first; we won't touch anything utility-owned until the line is confirmed dead.
No. We screen the work area so chips don't hit siding, windows, or vehicles, and we grind six to twelve inches below grade so the surface roots come out with it. Grindings are hauled off or backfilled and topped with soil, whichever you prefer, and the spot is left ready to seed, sod, or pave over.
Both, with the same crews. Mowing and maintenance, spring and fall cleanups, mulch, sod, grading, custom paver patios, walkways, and retaining walls — residential and commercial. Most of our landscaping work starts as a tree job and turns into fixing the yard around where the tree used to be.
Yes. AJ Tree Expert and Landscape LLC is a registered Pennsylvania LLC and carries insurance for the work we do. Ask and we'll send you a certificate before the crew shows up — you should be asking that of every tree company that quotes you.
Seniors and veterans get 10% off. Mention it when you call and it's applied to your written estimate — no coupons, no fine print.
