Holistic Tree Works provides professional tree care with a focus on long-term tree health, safety, and property protection.

We specialize in structural pruning, hazardous tree removal, and thoughtful problem-solving for mature trees.

Our work is guided by industry best practices and a holistic approach—meaning we consider the tree, the site, and the people who live there before recommending a solution. Whether pruning for structure, removing a high-risk tree, or helping plan future plantings, we prioritize safety, clear communication, and doing the job right the first time.

We are fully insured, detail-oriented, and respectful of your property from start to finish.

  • "After a tornado came through St. Louis and left my backyard completely filled six feet deep on average with the limbs of two giant trees, I got bids from eight tree removal companies. Kiall’s bid was half the amount of the next lowest bid. They say, “never take the lowest bid”, but after meeting Kiall I had a good feeling about him and I had him do the work. I can’t say enough about how pleased I was with the work he and his crew did. And they were very careful to prevent any further damage to my house in the process of removing the giant limbs. I give Holistic Tree Works the highest recommendation."

    -M. McLaughlin

  • "There are tree trimmers, there are arborists, and then there’s Kiall. I call him the dogwood whisperer. The man just knows what’s going on with trees and how to get them back to health if possible or how to remove it without breaking the world around it. 100% recommend."

    -C. Piper

  • "Kiall is so knowledgeable!! He helped identify an issue with my cherry tree and is helping me replace one with a better choice. Highly recommend"

    -C. Weireich

  • "Excellent and timely work. Did a great job taking down and hauling away a large tree. Reasonably priced. Highly recommend."

    —R. Valentine

  • "Was amazing. Showed up on time agreed. Cleaned dead wood out of three big old trees. Also took out a big maple that was soon to be in my garage. He and a helper worked non stop until the job was finished. He also climbs the trees to work on them. I’ve had people use a boom truck but end up doing more damage than good with a bucket. Price was competitive but I will use them hands down no question again."

    -Kerry B.

You should check him out if you have overgrown trees, dead or dying trees, or shaping and pruning."

    -Lori A.

  • "I called Holistic to help me with a dead oak that was hanging over my pond. Everything was done efficiently and with care. It wasn’t the cheapest bid, but the quality of work was worth it. Very satisfied with the job and will absolutely use again."
