"Called for an estimate based on the Angie's List deals they offer of a half day or full day of crew time for a set price. The deals specifically mention they include tree removal and make no mention of any diameter restriction beyond a maximum of 8 inches for chipping. I scheduled the arborist to come out and give an estimate and once he arrived he told me that the deal wouldn't apply because it only covers up to 10 inch diameter trees. I checked again, and no, it doesn't say that anywhere in the fine print, but he insisted it did. I called the main office since I figured they might be more aware of the deals available than their guy in the field. Nope. The genetleman I spoke with reiterates that there's a diameter limit that isn't listed anywhere and then outright states that the purpose of the deal is more for tree pruning and doesn't really cover removal. I asked why it lists removal in the included services in that case? He claimed that Angie's List wrote the deal for them, but that's not really what it's for and they don't take any responsibility for it. He then explained they simply couldn't afford to offer the deal as written (perhaps they shouldn't offer it, then?) before taking time to brag about the $3 million of business they do every year. So to reiterate, they absolutely will not honor the deals they have listed. When called out on this fact, they blamed Angie's List and took no responsibility for the problem. I refuse to do business with a company that lies to prospective customers. If you want to work with people that display this kind of childish behavior, consider yourself warned."

The optimal timing for bush trimming depends largely on plant variety and growth characteristics. For most deciduous shrubs, late winter or early spring, before new growth emerges, provides ideal results. Plants grown primarily for their flowers should be trimmed shortly after blooming concludes to preserve next year's flower buds. During periods of extreme heat or cold, it's advisable to postpone significant trimming to avoid stressing plants when they're most vulnerable.
While tipping isn't generally expected for landscape maintenance services, it's sometimes offered for exceptional work or service. When considering a gratuity, factors like job complexity, attention to detail, and overall professionalism might influence your decision. For larger crews, individual tips of $10 to $20 per worker may be more practical than percentage-based amounts. Always prioritize paying the agreed service price before considering additional gratuities.
Professional trimming can contribute significantly to pest management by eliminating overcrowded growth where insects often shelter and breed. Proper pruning improves air circulation throughout the plant, reducing conditions favorable for fungal diseases and certain insect infestations. Experienced landscapers often identify early signs of pest activity during trimming, allowing for prompt intervention before problems escalate. Some services offer integrated pest management approaches alongside trimming for comprehensive plant health.
Most overgrown shrubs can be successfully rehabilitated through appropriate pruning techniques, though severely neglected specimens may require a phased approach. Professional landscapers evaluate each plant's condition to determine whether gradual reduction or more aggressive rejuvenation pruning would be most effective.
The recovery timeline varies by species, with some showing remarkable improvement within a single growing season while others require multiple years to regain optimal form and health.
