Utah's Longest-Established Tree Service Company
For over 57 years, Diamond Tree Experts has been the trusted name in professional tree care throughout Salt Lake City and the Wasatch Front. Since our founding in 1967, we have grown from a small local operation to Utah's premier tree service company, all while maintaining our commitment to quality, safety, and customer satisfaction.
What started as a family business with a simple mission - to provide honest, professional tree care services to Utah communities - has evolved into a full-service tree care company with the experience, equipment, and expertise to handle any tree-related challenge.
Our Story
Humble Beginnings (1967)
Diamond Tree Experts was founded in 1967 by a passionate arborist who recognized the unique challenges facing trees in Utah's distinctive climate and soil conditions. Starting with basic equipment and an unwavering commitment to quality, our founder began serving residential and commercial customers throughout Salt Lake County.
Growth Through Excellence (1970s-1980s)
Throughout the 1970s and 1980s, Diamond Tree Experts built a reputation for reliability, safety, and exceptional service. As Utah's population grew and urban development expanded, so did the need for professional tree care services. We expanded our services, invested in professional equipment, and began training certified arborists to meet the growing demand.
Professional Certification Era (1990s-2000s)
The 1990s marked a turning point as professional arboriculture standards evolved. Diamond Tree Experts embraced the International Society of Arboriculture (ISA) certification program, ensuring our team members received the highest level of training and certification available in the industry. This commitment to professional development set us apart from competitors and established our reputation as Utah's most qualified tree service provider.
Modern Innovation (2000s-Present)
The new millennium brought technological advances and evolving safety standards. We continuously invested in state-of-the-art equipment, including crane services, specialized bucket trucks, and professional-grade stump grinders. Our commitment to staying current with industry best practices and safety protocols has made us the preferred choice for Utah's most challenging tree service projects.
