TREES PLUS

It was excellent no problem at all. They knew what they were doing, the area was clean when they left, and remove all the branches that fell down.

clean neat and efficient and answer the call in case for emergency and can call them in the middle of the night

The service was excellent. They were very conscientious, get the job done, and they were very neat.

110% Excellent!

I phoned the company yesterday at 12:15 and a very polite woman (Tara?) picked up the phone. Within a few minutes of chatting, she had me scheduled for a delivery with a two hour window. ( between 1 and 3 pm the same afternoon!). Being that I had to leave my home during that time, she told me to leave the check on the log rack. My son got home around 3, and the wood had already been delivered and stacked! There was no evidence in the driveway that a cord of wood had been delivered and every speck of wood chips/debris had been cleaned up! The wood was perfectly stacked on my log racks in back of my house. It was absolutely a true cord of wood for a fair price $200 plus $50 for stacking. I will use them again and highly recommend them if you're in the market for firewood.

<p>It went okay. There was some miscommunication in regards to when he would do the job. The price was great though and the crew was professional. He did what the contact said he would. </p>

Very professional. We had some scheduling issues and communication via email was delayed but once they scheduled a date everything went smoothly. <br />

Great. First, the woman who answers the phone is the owner and is just lovely. Their price for delivery and stacking of seasoned firewood was more than fair. They arrived during the 2 hour window provided. They were careful to minimize the debris left from the wood. Stacking job sturdy. No complaints.

The took cut down 5 trees, cut them into 18" logs, cleaned up all debris from area, very professional and reliable, will use them again, recommend them highly!!!

The guys that do the work are good, the owner Peter is not so good. He tried to cover up not grinding stumps with dirt. When I found the stumps not done he lied and said it was not included in my estimate. Another lie as it was written in my estimate. <br /> Stay away <br />

It was a smooth experience.  From the first call to Tree's Plus, where i spoke to Tara, to the end of the tree trimming, it was great.  No issues.  They arrived on time, trimmed the trees beautifully, counseled us on how to handle the delicate maple, and cleaned up all scraps/twigs that fell on our lawn.   Best of all, the workers were as sweet as can be. I love that the owner, Peter, was part of it and didn't just delegate it out to a random team. <br />

I had a very positive experience with Trees Plus. I dealt with Drew and Pete.  They were both very professional, knowledgeable, and willing to work within my budget.   I had 5 large trees, more than 100ft high each, taken down. One oak tree which I thought was pretty sturdy ended up being hollow upto about 50 feet. Good thing I took their advice.The Trees plus price of $4500 was very reasonable based on other estimates I received. They estimated it would take 2 days and it took two days. They showed up on time and did an excellent job of cleaning up the yard when they were finished. They were able to handle lowering the electrical wires to my house and putting them back up again. I feel bad that I didn?t tell them in advance that there was going to be a party on the front lawn (where they had stacked the wood to chipped the next day) but when I explained the situation they moved all the wood and branches to another location without complaint. Their crew were very skilled. They did not require a crane which saved me money. I would use them again. <br /> <br />

During Hurricane Sandy on 10/29/12, our 50 foot twin blue spruce split in two and half of it fell between our house and next door.  <br /> The half of tree that was still standing was leaning towards our house with all of the weight of the branches.  Since the Nor?easter was expected with heavy snow and winds of 50 mph, we needed to have a tree service take the tree down before damage was done to the house and neighborhood powerlines.  <br /> Drew Trien of Trees Plus, Inc. in East Hanover, NJ replied to my call around 10 AM Tues., 11/6, and said he would assess <br /> the tree as he was near by and would be there in 5 minutes.  He showed up around noon (2 hours later).  After looking at the tree, he agreed that my tree would surely fall in the Nor?easter and that I needed to act fast.  He said ?in a normal circumstance, you?re looking at a $2,000 job.  But because of the Hurricane, I need to look out for me.? He told me it was $5000 to take down the tree, $750 to grind/haul away debris, and $450 to grind the stump. I called my husband who screamed he was gouging us. I did not want damage to my house or to have my newly restored powerlines be damaged or cause any damage to my neighborhood.  Drew could hear our conversation.  He said $4000 to remove the tree, so I agreed.  I gave an $800 deposit. The crew was supposed to show up in a 1/2 hour. <br /> The crew came at 4:00 (4 hours later) and cut down the tree leaving a 10 foot stump  They put half of the debris in front of my <br /> house and the other half in front of next door as it didn?t all fit in front of my house.  They said they would clean up the following day <br /> (11/7/12) at 9 AM.I said OK. <br /> The crew did not show up at 9 AM on 11/7/12.  The arrived around noon.  The wife of the owner asked for the <br /> remainder of the balance for the crew to finish the job (cut the stump, grind the tree, and haul away).  I wrote a check for $3950.  I made sure that the crew knew that it was to clean up in front of my house and next door to remove all of our tree.  They agreed. <br /> I watched the crew work from my enclosed front porch.  They cleaned up most of the tree in my yard but did not have a chain saw <br /> to cut the 10 foot trunk and said someone would have to come back later.  The crew started to clean up to leave without removing the debris next door from my tree.  I told them they were supposed to do that.  They said, ?no.?  I had to call Drew back, talk to him,  and have him talk to the crew to get them to complete the job.  While on the phone with Drew, the owner Peter showed up, cut the stump down and told the crew to get to work.  The crew stopped working for 30-45 minutes to eat lunch in the truck in front of our house. <br /> I do not mind paying for the work that was done, but, according to the email I received from Congressman Leonard Lance, anything over 10% higher than normal is price gouging.  Since Drew Trien told me that the ?normal?price of my work was $2000, not $4000, I think they should not demand any more than $2200 (normal price + 10%).  Trees Plus, Inc. increased their price to remove the tree by 100%.  <br /> While I do appreciate that Trees Plus, Inc. came and completed the job, I believe they took advantage of the situation to make as much money as they could from a natural disaster.   We filed a price gouging complaint with the NJ Office of the Attorney General but haven't heard anything from them yet. <br /> <br />

They did a pretty good job but we've actually had a lot of branches fall down since that happened. They actually cut down some trees that we didn't even want cut down. They did a really good job taking the trees down and they even gave me some firewood in exchange for the wood they hauled so I would definitely recommend them for that. Six months after they trimmed 2 of the maples, they keep dropping branches and seem to be dying. We don't know if that is the natural progression of things or if they missed a few branches they should have cut. They also cut a few bamboo trees in the back for no apparent reason. Their price was good. We priced a few different competitors and they were competitive. They came out and gave us an appraisal pretty quickly and they came back with the firewood pretty quickly so they were pretty responsive. Their professionalism seemed mixed. The owner seemed pretty good and a couple of his workers seemed to really know their stuff. There were a couple of other guys that seemed like they were training. They dropped these humongous branches all at the same spot but other guys that were doing more basic stuff didn't seem as competent. I would use them again but I would watch what they were doing a little bit closer.
