Ian Turner

Owner

Turner Tree Works began with Ian’s passion for woodworking and furniture design. Seeking high-quality slabs, he partnered with local arborists to mill logs, eventually realizing the importance of connecting directly with the source. This led Ian to personally remove trees, mill logs, and transform them into lumber, developing expertise in arboriculture along the way.

Now based in Northern Virginia, Turner Tree Works offers expert tree care services, including removals, stump grinding, land clearing, and preservation planning. Our certified arborists are dedicated to maintaining the health and beauty of the local environment, carrying forward Ian’s passion and care in every project.
