Good People Tree Service

At Good People Tree Service, we pride ourselves on being more than just a tree care company. We are a team of professionals who are passionate about trees and dedicated to providing exceptional service to our customers. Located in Gilpin County, Colorado, we serve the Front Range and beyond, using our expertise to ensure the health and well-being of trees and the people who rely on them.

Our Services

From removals to pruning, our skilled arborists are equipped to handle any tree care need. We understand that every project is unique, which is why we take the time to listen to our customers and develop a personalized plan to achieve their goals.

Removals

Sometimes, removing a tree is necessary to protect people and property, promote the health of surrounding vegetation, or address naturally occurring death. Our skilled climbers and truck-mounted cranes allow us to safely and efficiently remove trees of all sizes.

Hazardous & Emergency Removals

We understand that trees can fall at unexpected times, causing damage to property and posing a threat to safety. Our team is equipped to respond quickly and efficiently to emergency situations, using our expertise and specialized equipment to mitigate danger and minimize disruption.

Lot-Clearing

Whether you're planning a construction project or simply need to clear land, we've got you covered. Our experienced team can help you identify which trees can be saved and provide guidance on how to protect them during construction.

Utility Line Clearance

Working near energized lines requires expertise and specialized training. Our climbing arborists and aerial lift operators are EHAP certified by the Tree Care Industry Association and follow ANSI Z133 and TCIA standards to ensure safe and efficient work.

Fire Mitigation

As wildfires become an increasing threat in the Front Range and Rocky Mountains, we pride ourselves on taking a balanced approach to fire mitigation. We work with Wildfire Partners in Boulder County to complete defensible space projects and consult with customers on fire mitigation strategies that balance risk reduction with environmental stewardship.

Soil Restoration

Healthy soil is essential for healthy trees. Our holistic approach to soil restoration uses natural and organic methods to promote beneficial bacteria and fungi, giving trees the nutrients they need to thrive. We create our own proprietary tea blend using beneficial microorganisms and composted organic matter.

Pruning

Proper pruning is a delicate balancing act between science, art, and preventative care. We remove dead, broken, infected, and crossing branches to reduce the risk of infection and promote healthy growth. Our team is trained to prune with an artistic eye, ensuring a beautiful and healthy landscape.

Our Mission

At Good People Tree Service, we are committed to being good people - to our customers, our employees, and our community. We strive to be the gold standard for tree and customer care, providing the highest quality work and exceptional customer service.

Our Team

Our owners, Eric Kennedy and Ivan Clusin, have a strong working partnership and share a passion for trees. Eric has been a climbing arborist in Colorado since 2009, while Ivan is an ISA-certified arborist with a lifelong fascination with horticulture.
