CJ Tree LLC

CJ Tree LLC is a tree service based at 20 Second Street in North Grafton, run by owner Corey Johnson. The Better Business Bureau lists the business under Tree Services and opened its file in August 2021; that file date is a record-keeping date, not a statement of how long Corey Johnson has been doing tree work. What exists publicly about the work itself is thin. In a 2023 r/WorcesterMA thread about tree removal companies with crane access, a Grafton-area resident named CJ Tree and described the owner as "Super good dude" — someone they had met, liked, and expected to hire later — while being clear they had not used him at that point, purely because of scheduling. The same commenter said they see him around town all the time, which reads as a local reputation rather than a report on a finished job. There is no published star rating anywhere in this record: the BBB profile is marked Not Rated because the bureau says it has insufficient information, and the business is not BBB accredited. Non-accreditation is a choice many small owner-operated crews make and is not itself a mark against them. The BBB profile shows no complaints and no government actions. Before booking, the practical gap is that nobody has publicly described a completed job — no pricing, no cleanup, no crane or removal outcome. Ask for recent local references in Grafton or Worcester, confirm current liability and workers' compensation insurance in writing before any climbing or crane work, and get the stump-grinding and debris-haul terms spelled out in the quote. The one commenter's scheduling remark is worth raising directly: ask what the current lead time looks like for the size of tree you have. CJ Tree is the right call for a homeowner who wants a local North Grafton owner-operator and is willing to do their own reference-checking, rather than someone who wants a long published review history to lean on.
