A Leader in the Arborist Community
Christy Hampton founded Clean Cuts Trees with a simple but powerful vision: to provide Utah residents with tree services that combine expertise, efficiency, and uncompromising quality. Her journey in the tree service industry began with a deep appreciation for trees and a commitment to safety that continues to define the company today.
As a passionate advocate for quality in arborist work, Christy has dedicated her career to elevating what customers can expect from tree service companies. She believes that every property owner deserves transparency, fair pricing, and results that speak for themselves — and that the industry itself should be held to a higher, verifiable standard.
Building Utah's Tree-Care Certification Standard
Right now, almost anyone can buy a chainsaw and call themselves a “tree service.” Christy is working to change that. Her goal is to establish a recognized tree-care certification for Utah — a credential that proves a crew has the training, safety knowledge, and ethical standards to care for your trees and protect your property.
A professional certification protects homeowners from unqualified operators, raises the bar for every arborist in the state, and gives Utah's urban forest the skilled stewardship it deserves. Here's what Christy's certification vision is built on:
- verifiedVerified Skill & Knowledge
Certified crews demonstrate real competency in tree biology, pruning science, and safe removal — not just years on a truck.
- health_and_safetySafety You Can Trust

- handshakeAccountability & Ethics

Proper, certified care keeps Utah's trees safer and healthier for generations — reducing storm hazards and preserving property value.
