"I used this company spring 2018 for removal of several trees and a lot of brush, including stump grinding. Price was reasonable, team was professional and hard working. A bit of a mess was left but, oh well. There was a small amount of oak tree trimming needed but I knew that needed to wait until the winter months. Called them in September to be put on the schedule for this. Called back in November to request an estimate for this job since I hadn't heard from them yet. In February, still hadn't heard (and we had a warm, dry few months so this work could have easily been done), called again and Doug came out to assess the job. He said he would text me an estimate at the end of the day...never heard from him. (mistake #1 - should have started looking for a different company) Snow, freezing rain, and arctic temps are now in the forecast. I get a call from Randy asking if I still need this work done and he comes out the next day to provide an estimate. Very nice guy. Work is scheduled. Unfortunately, I did not clarify what his definition of elevate means. (mistake #2) My previous landscaper at my old house defined elevate as removing the bottom 2-3 branches of a tree, enough to raise it a foot higher from the ground. So I said sure go ahead and elevate my pin oak, it would make it easier for me to weed under those branches. I thought they were going to take off the bottom 2 branches. Because it was getting late into March, I scheduled the work on a day when I had to work (mistake #3). Randy assured me he would be on site to be certain trimming was done as we had discussed. When I got home, to my horror, my beautiful pin oak with its beautiful lower downward sweeping branches was trimmed 2/3 up the tree. The explanation I received was that the "climber" didn't think it looked even and continued to cut off branches until it did. That wasn't his tree to make that decision! There was no regard for the beautiful, unique shape of that tree nor the fact that it blocked the view of the neighbor's trampoline directly behind it. A month later, I am still so upset and sad for this tree. I feel like it has been stripped naked. Although the other trimming that day was done ok, I will not use them again. BTW, Doug had also offered two years in a row to remove some excess building materials left by previous owner at the back of my property. I said I was interested in his help with that and he never got back to me."
