About Thompson's Tree Care & Landscaping

Thompson's Tree Care & Landscaping was founded by Jodie Thompson with a clear mission: provide Saint Louis homeowners and businesses with tree care they can trust. Headquartered in South St. Louis at 3703 Orient Ave, our company has grown from a one-man operation into one of the most reliable tree service companies in the greater Saint Louis metropolitan area.

From the very beginning, Jodie built Thompson's Tree Care on a foundation of honest pricing, skilled craftsmanship, and deep respect for every client's property. Whether it is a routine trimming job in Kirkwood or a complex large tree removal in a tight urban lot in South City, our approach stays the same: do the job right, leave the property cleaner than we found it, and charge a fair price.

What sets Thompson's apart is our combination of certified arborist knowledge and old-fashioned work ethic. Jodie personally oversees every major project, ensuring that each cut is calculated, every safety protocol is followed, and the final result exceeds expectations. Our crew has handled everything from simple branch trimming to multi-day crane-assisted removals of massive oaks leaning over homes and power lines.

Since 2014, we have completed over 500 jobs across Saint Louis, Chesterfield, Florissant, O'Fallon, Belleville, IL, and dozens of surrounding communities within a 30-mile radius. Our reputation has been built one satisfied customer at a time — through word of mouth, honest reviews, and the kind of results that speak for themselves.

Jodie Thompson is the founder, owner, and lead arborist of Thompson's Tree Care & Landscaping. A lifelong Saint Louis resident, Jodie grew up with a deep appreciation for the outdoors and an innate understanding of the trees that define the St. Louis landscape — from towering oaks and maples to ornamental dogwoods and redbuds.

As a certified arborist, Jodie brings science-backed knowledge to every job. He does not just cut trees — he evaluates their health, assesses structural integrity, diagnoses disease, and recommends the best course of action to protect both the tree and the property. His expertise in tree cabling and bracing has saved countless mature trees that other companies would have removed outright.

Jodie is a hands-on owner who leads from the front. You will find him on the job site — climbing, rigging, and working alongside his crew on the most challenging removals. He personally inspects every project before the crew leaves to ensure the work meets his standards and the client is completely satisfied.

Beyond his technical skills, Jodie is known for his straightforward communication and honest pricing. He provides detailed estimates with no hidden fees, explains every step of the process, and treats every homeowner's property with the care and respect it deserves. For Jodie, every job is personal — and that is what makes Thompson's Tree Care different from every other tree service in Saint Louis.
