Last 6 months: 2 reviews, 0 negative. ## The honest read Every branch fell and landed in the same direction in the same pile — that is how a recent Google reviewer described watching Zuhlke Tree Service take trees down, adding that the yard looked beautiful after they left. The company's own site says it has provided arborist services to the greater Bangor region since 2018, and a 2024 Reddit commenter said Zuhlke's is out of Bangor and would likely be willing to travel for a quote. A 2026 customer said they left a message, got a call back within three days, met with the company's arborist two days later, and had three trees removed within three hours, cleanup included. A 2025 customer said a Zuhlke team took down a large 100+ year old tree and cleaned up as they went. A 2025 customer had five trees cut down and a dozen stumps ground, with everything taken away. A 2023 customer said they worked alongside CMP to remove a limb that had taken out power to the home the very next day, taking care not to damage a sentimental railing. A 2023 customer said they were careful with equipment weight so it did not damage the leach field. A recent customer said they showed up when they said they would and did exactly what was needed. An article on mainebiz.biz lists James Zuhlke Jr. of Zuhlke Tree Service LLC under Young Entrepreneur of the Year. **Strengths:** - A clean yard — a recent customer said it looked beautiful afterward - Quick callback — a 2026 customer heard back within three days - Stump grinding — a 2025 customer had a dozen stumps ground - Downed limb removal — a 2023 customer said they worked alongside CMP ## Claims & citations Every claim below is backed by real evidence rows — uncited claims are dropped in code before publication. - A recent customer said the yard looked beautiful after the tree removal _(confidence: high)_ - [Google Reviews](https://www.google.com/maps/reviews/data=!4m8!14m7!1m6!2m5!1sCi9DQUlRQUNvZENodHljRjlvT2xobWJFUkdhVzFOYzFKeVMzUlRZWEJvV0RCWlQzYxAB!2m1!1s0x0:0x3b01f6345b439d3!3m1!1s2@1:CAIQACodChtycF9oOlhmbERGaW1Nc1JyS3RTYXBoWDBZT3c%7C%7C?hl=en-US) — “5★ Absolutely incredible job!
