"I received an estimate from Wiley Holland, Green Vista’s estimator, who spent considerable time explaining my options and how they would do the work while protecting my recently over-seeded lawn. Confident that they would protect the lawn, I chose Green Vista to perform the work. Their estimate was also less than the other two estimates I had received to have a huge multi-trunk maple tree beside my house removed and a smaller maple in the front of the house pruned. Wiley and a crew of 7, plus several large trucks, appeared at my house 3 days later, before 8:00 AM, to perform the work. A bucket truck was used to prune the front-yard maple, but we decided that the bucket truck was too heavy (30,000 – 40,000 lbs.) to drive across the somewhat soft lawn to be used on the side-yard maple tree. Wiley left to perform other estimations, and the crew got to work. The trunk of the large maple had roughly a “figure 8” cross-section with a circumference of about 14’. The main trunk split into 4 smaller trunks about 10’ off the ground, and these smaller trunks soared to over 80’. A single climber took about 6 hours to completely remove this tree, with a few other workers hand-carrying the limbs and branches out to the chipper as they fell. When the cuttings involved logs too large to hand carry, they used a small tractor to carry the logs to the truck after first laying a temporary road of yard-protection mats from the street to the side yard as previously agreed to. The remaining stump was cut as close to the ground as permitted by the chain saw. The entire job, included deep pruning the smaller maple using the bucket truck, was completed in about 7 hours. The work crew did a great job of cleaning up all debris from the lawn before leaving and even used rakes and a leaf blower to fluff up the grass that had been flattened by the yard-protecting mats. You could hardly tell that they had been there. Green Vista was able to schedule the work within a few days of the estimate, did the job for a competitive price, performed all work agreed to, and avoided any damage to the lawn. I was very pleased with the entire process and would definitely use Green Vista again."

"Awesome end-to-end experience! After two other tree service arborists inspected trees with me but then failed to actually send estimates, I searched Angie's List and read many of Gordon's reviews. I left him a voicemail on a Friday. He called me Saturday and was willing to visit that weekend. Since I was busy over the weekend, he agreed to call Monday or Tuesday. He called Tuesday at approx. 11am, indicating he was in the area working a job and could be by in 30 minutes. I agreed to meet him. We inspected my four large shade trees (2 sycamore and 2 maples) and I explained we needed better visibility from front porch, unblock view of a corner stop sign, and ensure no growth into siding. He explained his additional recommendation for overall thinning and shaping. He provided an on the spot verbal estimate of $800 and when I asked if he accepted a credit card, he indicated yes, but would charge only $750 if I wrote a check. I had researched average job costs and Gordon's quote was very reasonable. I then asked what his lead time was and he indicated his crew was finishing a job nearby and they could be by in an hour after they ate lunch. He and his crew arrived promptly an hour later, a crew of six total, including Gordon. Gordon rang the doorbell and asked me to review first tree trimming with him before he moved on to remaining three to ensure it met my expectations per our earlier discussion. After finishing, Gordon asked me to walk our property and review pruning for all four trees. His crew was well organized, worked together like clockwork, and Gordon was right there with them working and directing to ensure all trees were pruned to expectations and clean-up was thorough. Our yard looks "larger" now and is very open with the thinning Gordon recommended, as they removed overlapping and dead branches to include providing more ground clearance. They look great and Gordon indicated they shouldn't require pruning again for at least five years. I'll now hire Gordon for annual tree / shrub maintenance (fertilize, insects, disease prevention) and fire the other provider that had provided that service but failed to provide a pruning estimate. I strongly recommend Gordon and his team for any tree related care! Well done!"

"Mr. Lopez and his staff were amazing. They wasted no time completing our tree removal project. They were all professional, and Mr. Lopez steered everything from beginning to end. There was a small mishap, but Mr. Lopez took care of it immediately. I would hire LPZ Tree Solutions again! Thank you!"

"Fabulous experience! could not have gone better. Communication spot on. Arrived promptly for estimate and emailed it immediately. they charge $600 and had other estimates for $900, $100 and $1400 for same job! sent out Miss utility and once that was complete they were ready to c ome out the next day. they had to push is to one day later due to an unexpectedly long job but they came the next day as promised. They communicated with me by phone, email and text to let me know off the schedules and any chances. Did the work with a team of 5 and large, well-kept machines. removed the stump and removed all the debris and place was in perfect condition (minus our dead tree) when they left. final payment request came in promptly and was easy to pay online. I would hire them again without any hesitation. VERY happy with the company."

"Axcobar should be your first choice for tree cutting and removal. Their service was outstanding in every way. Melvin responded in person to my emergency call after the recent tornado (microburst) in Olney took out six of the large, old trees in my yard. One of the trees was hanging over the deck and threatened to create more damage to my house if not skillfully removed. Axcobar showed up with a fabulous crew and a couple of trucks with shredders attached. These folks worked tirelessly over two days to cut, shred, and remove the trees that fell and the ones that were damaged and still standing. In addition, they removed all of the broken branches, twigs, and assorted debris in the area. We can not say enough good things about this service. Oh btw, their pricing was extremely competitive and fair. We will use them again and highly recommend them to others."

"They did good job."

"They responded quickly, with a good price, and handled getting "Miss Utility" to survey the area. Would definitely recommend."

"Great service from quote to execution"

"Extremely pleased with quality of work, as well as professionalism of owner and crew! After punctual arrival, they quickly cut down a dead tree exceeding 40 feet in height and removed huge branches from gigantic oak tree more than 150 years old. Additional efforts included pruning of same oak tree all at a very reasonable cost."

"I received a quick response to my request for a proposal. They showed up on time for the proposal. The cost was very reasonable and I went ahead and hired them. I was expecting it to be done the next week but they fit me into the schedule two days later. The team showed up and removed the tree and cleaned up. They were friendly and very professional. They even removed some additional fallen limbs for me. I was very pleased and will most definitely hire their services again in the future. I will also recommend R&R Tree Service to my neighbors!"
