Blue Ridge Tree was started by Daniel Whitaker, a Tennessee-bred ISA-certified arborist who spent eight years on a crew in Asheville before coming home to Maryville. He saw too many “tree guys” show up with a pickup and a chainsaw, dropping branches on roofs and leaving ruts in lawns. Blue Ridge runs differently: every job has an ISA-certified arborist on site, we carry $2M in liability insurance and full workers’ comp, and we own our own 60-ton crane. We’re the crew that other tree services call when the job’s too big.
Real customers from Maryville, Alcoa, and Knoxville. 4.9/5 on Google.
Oak fell on the house during the December wind storm. They had a crew on site in 90 minutes, tarped the roof, and had the tree off by dark. Their insurance paperwork was better than the adjuster’s.
We had four other tree services give us quotes. Blue Ridge was the only one who walked the whole property, pointed out three trees that were actually sick, and gave us a preservation plan instead of just selling removals.
Massive maple 4 feet from the house, leaning the wrong way. They brought a crane in, took it down in perfect sections, and mowed the chipper debris into the lawn. Not a single divot in the grass.
