Proven Results Across Every Service We Offer
Sarah LeBlanc
"I hired Decatur to remove three pine trees and grind the stumps in my backyard. I was worried about my flower beds, but Leon assured me they’d be careful. They laid down mats for the machines and cleaned up every single twig before they left. You literally can't tell the trees were ever there. Highly recommend!"
Dale Verdin
"Best tree service in Houma, hands down. I’ve used a few other companies over the years that left a mess or charged way more than the quote. Shawn (the foreman) walked me through exactly what they were going to do and stuck to the price. Professional, insured, and fast. Won't call anyone else."
Monique Arceneaux
"Professionalism is top notch. We needed lot clearing for a new build in Bayou Blue and they knocked it out in two days. The secretary, Sharica, was also super helpful with getting us the insurance paperwork we needed for the bank. Great team from the office to the field."
T-Boy Guidry
"Michel and his crew are the real deal. Had a massive Live Oak branch threatening to come down on my carport after that last storm scare. They came out the same day I called, gave me a fair price, and didn’t tear up my yard getting the equipment back there. Hard to find honest folks these days, but these brothers are good people."
