He’s also a NEMA First Responder, assisting in hurricane rescue and cleanup operations throughout the islands — proving his commitment to safety extends far beyond business.

“Mr. Thurston came up here on Saturday afternoon. Sunday we agreed on how to get it done. Today is Wednesday. It’s halfway through lunchtime and the job is already done. It was an excellent job. They removed a really large ficus tree without doing any damage to anything. I’m very happy.”
- Mr. Peter Fletcher
“The issue I had was just overgrown trees. They’d just gotten out of control. 2 Coconut trees and an African tulip tree with was beautiful flowers but it grew a massive trunk. It’s been years. They came for 10 and it’s 12:30pm and it’s all gone. It’s just - I’m so impressed. They did a fantastic job. I’d highly recommend them.”
Mrs. N. Pinder

We were quoted, sent the deposit and the tree was removed the next day.
We can highly recommend Thurston Lumberjack Landscaping for the not just black the quality of work but the level of customer service through communication.”
