Owen's Tree Expert is a tree company that says it serves Torrington, Litchfield County and Hartford County, offering tree trimming, pruning and removal along with pest and disease management. It also says it has been in business 25 years. On Google it holds 4.9 stars from 91 ratings, and its BBB grade is A+. A recent customer said the company safely removed around a dozen large trees close to their home, and called the pricing very reasonable. A customer who consulted three companies said Jose Vigil gave the estimate and the exact work date on the day of the free consultation; that customer wrote that one company said the work would take 5 days, while his team cut down 2 trees and trimmed others in less than one full day. A recent customer with a tree very close to power lines and two houses said Jose gave a quote within an hour and that they did not have to clean up a single thing. A 2026 customer wrote that they hired the company every year to prune fruit trees and for dangerous removals. A 2025 customer described a 100-foot oak standing over a septic leach field, with every log roped and lowered and no damage to the lawn or driveway. A 2025 customer who called themselves the new owner of a property said Jose cleared the borders on 1.2 acres, taking out dead trees and shrubs and removing invasive vines from healthy trees. In a 2024 review, a customer said that after a 100+ foot twin pine fell on the house, the company was there in minutes, cut it up and took it away, and put a temporary tarp on the roof. A recent 1-star reviewer wrote that the company was working next door on a 70-foot pine on the property line, dropping limbs in their yard without asking permission, and would not email a certificate of liability and workers' comp. A 2025 customer said Jose no-showed for an appointment and did not call. In a 2023 review, a customer who had hired Jose once before said that on a second job he announced after starting that he would not take the wood, put a 'Free Wood' sign on the front lawn, and raised the quote to haul it.

Owen’sTree Expert did an excellent job of cutting down 2 trees, and trimming the branches of many other trees in my yard. Mr. Jose Vigil’s manner was professional and friendly. His explanations were clear. On the day of the free consultation, he was able to give me the estimate and the exact date that the work would be done. He was the third company I consulted. The arborists’ recommendations of all 3 were nearly identical, but the other estimates were more expensive. One company said the work would take 5 days. Mr. Vigil’s team did the work in less than 1 full day. The clean up was superb. I highly recommend this company.
Jose and the team at Owens Tree Service did an excellent job. Jose is extremely knowledgeable and clearly knows trees inside and out. He was easy to work with, communicated well throughout the process, and answered all of my questions. The work itself was top-notch, and the cleanup was just as impressive. When they left, you could barely tell they had been there aside from the finished result. It’s hard to find contractors who do great work and clean up that thoroughly. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Jose and Owens Tree Service to anyone looking for honest advice and quality tree work.
