About JLO Tree Service

Same trees.
bigger vision.

A Central Connecticut tree company with the equipment and the crew for the jobs that need more than a truck and a chainsaw.

01Story

Local roots. Serious capability.

JLO Tree Service LLC takes pride in servicing central Connecticut with over a decade of tree work experience.

Today JLO runs tracked spider lifts, bucket trucks, grapple trucks, chippers and crane trucks — so a big tree beside a house, or a backyard no truck can reach, is routine work.

The company is fully insured and answers storm emergencies around the clock.

02Giving back

Cat stuck in a tree? We rescue them free.

Since 2020, JLO has brought stranded cats down from trees across Central Connecticut — after the workday, wherever they are, and never for a fee.

In May 2026, Chleo spent 8 days high in a New Britain tree while neighbors searched for help. Julian went up with the spider lift, coaxed her into the bucket with cat food and brought her back to her family — and the rescue made the local news.

“If it was my cat, I'd want somebody to do the same thing.”
Julian Lopez, owner of JLO Tree Service, speaking to FOX61Julian Lopez, owner, to FOX61

04How we work

Professional tree care, done properly.

  1. 01

    Serious equipment

    Tracked spider lifts, bucket trucks, grapple trucks, chippers and cranes — sized to the job, not the other way round.

  2. 02

    Experienced crews

    Over a decade of tree work in central Connecticut, from routine trimming to big removals in tight backyards.

  3. 03

    Safety-conscious

    Rigging, protective gear and ground-protection mats are part of how a JLO job is set up.

  4. 04

    Difficult jobs welcome

    Trees over houses, near lines and fences, in tight backyards — and storm damage at any hour.

05Capability

Four ways up the tree.

  • JLO climber in a spider lift bucket working beside a large trunk

    Method 01

    Spider lift

    Backyards a truck can't reach.

    A narrow tracked lift walks in through gates and side yards and sets up on ground mats.

  • Climber with a chainsaw lowering a cut log from a large tree

    Method 02

    Climbing crew

    Technical cuts where machines can't go.

    Climbers in harness and PPE cut and lower sections on rigging lines.

  • JLO bucket truck set up on a lawn with safety cones

    Method 03

    Bucket truck

    Roadside and front-yard trimming and removals.

    Aerial access straight from the street for pruning, clearance and take-downs.

  • JLO crane lifting a large spruce over a house

    Method 04

    Crane

    The biggest trees over houses, lines or fences.

    Sections are rigged and lifted out over the structure instead of being dropped.
