Crickets Tree Service Has Been Family-Owned Since 2001

We started Crickets Tree Service in 2001, right here in New Castle, Delaware. For 25-plus years we've worked continuously across New Castle County and into the surrounding areas same ownership, same crew, same commitment to doing the job ourselves. We don't subcontract. Every time we pull up to your property, it's our people on your trees, using our equipment. That's not a selling point, it's just how we've always run it.

We handle jobs of every scale. A single overgrown hedge on a tight residential lot and a multi-tree removal threatening a structure after a storm, both are jobs we take on without calling anyone else. We carry the gear for the big work and the patience for the careful work. No job too big or too small, we have the right equipment for all.
