About Us

Truck Loaded with Huge Tree sectionsTeam up with a tree service that cares about your needs and your safety. Chesapeake Tree & Outside Services knows that no two customers are alike. That’s why we listen closely to your needs before we begin working. Rest easy knowing we’ll always recommend the services we know your trees need to flourish and stay beautiful for years to come.

As longtime tree experts, we consider ourselves to be preservationists. That means we do everything we can to diagnose and treat diseased trees before we suggest removing them. However, if we’re concerned about the illness spreading to your others trees, we’ll first take steps to ensure that there’s little to no chance of them developing that disease.

About Our Owner

Keith Cotter is a licensed arborist (#1018) and a member of the Tree Care Industry Association, as well as the Maryland Arborist Association, Inc. With more than 30 years of experience in the industry, he’s proud to remain local families and businesses’ first choice for tree service, including emergency and storm cleanup.


Committed to Cleanliness

Trimming and caring for trees can be a messy business. Not every tree service takes time to ensure they’re leaving their clients’ properties clean. Our team, however, always go out of their way to remove any debris left behind during the course of our work. We’ll even use plywood to protect your property from being damaged by our equipment, dragged limbs/branches, and our even employees’ boots!
