About
The Davey Tree Expert Company, also known as Davey Tree, is a customer-focused, employee-owned enterprise dedicated to the science and care of trees, grounds, and environmental resources. Our customers, ranging from homeowners and businesses to public utilities and government agencies across North America, face various challenges in maintaining the health, safety, and beauty of their green assets. This is why we provide research-driven tree services, comprehensive grounds maintenance, and expert environmental consulting. Founded in 1880 by John Davey, considered the father of tree surgery, our company has a rich history rooted in a passion for arboriculture and a commitment to scientific principles. We understand that our clients value not only the aesthetic appeal of their landscapes but also the ecological benefits and the safety that well-maintained trees and grounds provide. Therefore, our ISA certified arborists and environmental consultants work diligently to deliver solutions that meet these diverse needs. Our approach is centered on exceeding client expectations through a combination of deep expertise, innovative practices, and a steadfast commitment to sustainability. We recognize that each client has unique requirements, whether it's preserving a historic tree, managing vegetation along utility lines to prevent outages, or developing a comprehensive plan for urban forestry. Davey Tree invests heavily in research and employee training, including the Davey Institute of Tree Sciences and the new Davey SEED Campus, to ensure our teams are equipped with the latest knowledge and techniques. This dedication to science and education allows us to tackle complex horticultural and environmental challenges effectively. As one of the largest employee-owned companies in the U.S., our employees have a vested interest in the success of our clients and the company, fostering a culture of exceptional service, safety, and environmental stewardship. We strive to be a trusted partner in creating and delivering sustainable solutions for a growing world, ensuring that the landscapes we care for today will thrive for generations to come.
