Why OAK
Why Choose OAK Across the Southeast
Three things set OAK apart: an ISA Certified Arborist leads every job (we keep multiple certified on staff so coverage never depends on one person), TCIA accreditation that places us in the top 2% of US tree services, and 21 years of documented work across the Southeast — including a 126-ft tree crane most regional outfits do not own.
Locally Rooted in Aiken and the CSRA Since 2014
Based in Aiken since 2014, with more than two decades of tree care and storm response experience across the Eastern United States. We know every neighborhood, species, and storm pattern in this region — out-of-state crews don't.
ISA Certified Arborist Owner
Charles Rice is the owner AND the ISA Certified Arborist on staff — not a hired-on cert. ISA Certified Arborist since 2010.
Top 2% Nationally
TCIA Accredited since 2016 — placing OAK in the top 2% of all tree companies in the country.
BBB A+ Rated
50+ verified Google reviews and an A+ Better Business Bureau rating across two decades of work.
126-ft Tree Crane
Heavy equipment competitors can't match — Tree Mek and Mecanil-branded 100-ton crane for trees on roofs, blocked roads, and structures.
Insurance Documentation
Timestamped photo evidence, itemized damage assessments, direct carrier liaison — paperwork your insurer can use without rework.
