"Service went ok, but technician was late. However, once she got here, very professional and knowledgeable. Several weeks later after the service was complete, got an email from the vendor saying they had not been paid...which was odd, since i bought the service in full via Angie's list. We sorted it out over the phone; they had not applied the credit to the account i guess."

"All work performed was on our front lawn.We had called around to get a few quotes to compare before we settled on Elliott's Sprinkler. They were by far the most professional of the 3. The first one didn't even measure the yard, and never even called us back with a  quote. The 2nd guy did the foot measuring method. While I understand he may have had lots of experience, it still left me a bit unsure. Elliott's Sprinkler sent out Mike. He was very professional. Listened to what I wanted. Then measured out the yard with a measuring wheel. He said we would have a quote for me within 24 hours and would like to some back out and go over it. I only ended up with 2 quotes to work with. The second of the 3 quotes I received the next day. And then Mike came out the next day to go over his quote. Although Elliott's was a little more I still thought they would be the best choice. And I was right. They started out with a blank canvas. 

We had a weed lawn so we had killed everything and had just dirt left. Unfortunately for them we had not watered in quite a while, so when they started digging for the sprinkler lines and drainage, they might as well have been digging in concrete. But I have to say the 2 guys doing the work didn't complain. And man they worked their butts off. It was hot and they kept at it. The first day they got the whole sprinkler system and drainage line done. Next day they started rototilling the ground to prep and level it for sod. I really felt bad that the ground was so hard. Took them a while to get it done and leveled. But again they worked hard with no complaints. By the end of the second day the ground was leveled and ready for sod. They also planted the 24 gallon Blossoming Pear tree. The 3rd day they showed up. The sod was delivered earlier that morning. They got to work quickly. Before I realized it they had the sod down, and had all the plants set in the ground, and the ground cover in place. It was such a transformation. We had not had grass in over a year, and suddenly we did. They finished up and then cleaned up their mess.

When they left, you wouldn't have even known they were there, except for the wonderful yard they left behind. I would like to say that John and his brother did a fantastic job. I will be requesting them when we are ready to do more work.A few days later the curbing guys came out to do the curbing. The curbing is done by a sub-contractor. They did a great job, but the messed up the sod a bit and had moved a lot of the mulch and buried it while doing the curbing. I called Elliott's to see if they could sell me more of the mulch so I could replace it. The next day Dan the owner himself, showed up. He gave me the mulch at no charge and even fixed the areas of sod they had messed up. They really went above and beyond in my opinion to give a great service. I would highly recommend them for any work your going to need. (FYI: Do the concrete curbing work first. We did it backwards, but in the future will be getting all that work done before we lay the sod.) We are going to have them do our backyard as soon as we are ready.

As side note. Please remember that the people who are doing work for you are just that.. PEOPLE. I have seen some people treat workers like this, like they are beneath them. These guys works hard for what they earn. And the last thing they need is someone treating them like they are something less than human. Respect can go a long way towards making this world a better place. It all starts with you. Thanks for reading this and have a great day."

Tree Service questions, answered by experts

Generally speaking, you’ll want to avoid flush cuts, which are cuts made as extremely close to the trunk or main branch. These cuts can weaken your tree, lower its natural defense mechanisms, and even cause decay. You’ll also want to avoid tree topping, which is the total removal of the leader and upper main branches of a tree. 

Most pros will advise against either of these methods, which is why hiring a pro is often the best choice when it comes to tree trimming.

A tree branch should start to form roots in about three months. It can take about a year for a tree branch to develop roots strong enough to go in the ground. For best results, start several branches because, no matter how closely you follow instructions, they won’t all form roots. Compost any that aren’t thriving.

No. Topping a tree refers to severely cutting down all its major branches and tree in a straight line. It was once recommended for streetside deciduous trees but has fallen out of practice. Topping leads to many problems, removing so much of the tree that many trees struggle to survive and become much more vulnerable to insects and diseases. Also, it doesn’t really help tree growth as once assumed and often leads to an ugly appearance of many sprouting stems in competition to become new main branches.

It takes anywhere from three to seven years for a stump to decompose on its own. This timeframe can depend on the kind of tree and your climate. The lower to the ground the stump is, the faster it rots. If you kill a tree stump with salt, boiling water, herbicide, light deprivation, or burning, the tree stump decomposes faster. 

Trimming a tree can take anywhere from just two hours to a full day, depending on the age of the tree, the number of trees, and the species. Young trees are generally easier to trim, as their branches are often thinner in diameter and easier to reach compared to mature trees. They also tend to be healthier. If you haven’t trimmed your trees before or it’s been a while, the process could take even longer.
