Max

Owner & Certified Arborist

"My love for trees began in Amsterdam, where I come from. I spent my first years as an arborist at a well-known Dutch tree company. During that time I began forming my own vision and values for what tree care should be. I want to shift the focus towards the importance of conserving trees. Now, living in the States, I am proud to share those values with others through the work I do with my wife."

"Although I've always had a fondness for nature, especially trees, I never imagined myself being trained as an arborist. During the first year of our marriage, Max began teaching me the basics of tree maintenance, chainsaw handling, and rigging. After some time and experience, I have a newfound respect and love for the art of tree care. And I'm very grateful to have such a hard working partner, teacher, and husband."

Reviews

What others have said about us:

"These guys are simply amazing. It was not only a matter of safely removing a huge 40 feet-high tree with little leeway, but they advised about the pros of leaving it intact before hurting it, then found a eurasian magpie nest with a hatchling inside at 30 feet height (apparently according to regulation to not disrupt nature's ways, they needed to keep a safe 10-feet margin from it, so they did), meaning they came back a couple of weeks after it left in order to chop of the rest of the tree down. All this without any hassle and inconvenience, always with a smile. I highly recommend them."

"We have engaged BRAX Tree Service for a lot of pruning work to prepare our garden for spring. A weeping birch, an apple tree, butterfly bushes, grape bush, blueberry bush and blackberry bushes. A big job, worked hard and fast, everything chopped up and taken away, including the autumn leaves. They are friendly and work with a smile and everything is very nicely pruned. Not only knowledge, but also insight and vision of what a garden should look like. Great class, thank you!"

"Max has carefully mapped out the health of our tree, so we don't have to worry too much about a storm. The contact went smoothly, he was right on time and explains everything expertly. So we are very satisfied with his Tree Assessment."

"They did a great job with pruning and shaping several trees on our property. A couple of crab apples were in bad shape and now they look nice! Friendly, knowledgeable and informative - they explained what they did and why. I will gladly have them back again!"

Lynn S.

"I received a response very quickly and the communication afterwards also went well. The tricky willow has been pruned back perfectly and the garden and surroundings have been left perfectly clean after the removal of all prunings. Very sympathetic people, a definite recommendation."

Nick K.

"Together with his wife, Max has carried out maintenance regarding various oaks. I can say that I was very satisfied with them. In particular, his advice on what to do and what not to do is something you don't often see with other companies anymore. Next time I will call them again!"

Peter M.

"We had an great experience with them. They were perfectly on time and work very safe and secure. They asked us if we wanted them to get rid of the wood or that we wanted to do it ourselves. When we told them to do it ourselves, they cut all the wood in small pieces so that it’s easy for us to throw away. Very professional and kind!"
