Graver Tree Care

Very responsive and professional. Cleaned the area well before they left.

Service was excellent.

I wanted to handle by email, he accommodated.  He came, gave the quote and marked the tree that matched my description to make sure it was the one I was talking about, and took it down a few days later.  From first contact to chopping it down was maybe a week and a half.  I have a very busy schedule and never saw him in person once, all handled via emails.  When he took the tree down he left a self addressed envelope which I mailed a check back to him.  Super easy, very professional, and looks great.  Not to mention he was HALF the price of the other quote I got.  If I need another tree removed in the future I have no doubt I will go back to Bruce Graver.

The crew that came out to complete the job was friendly and hard
working.  They said they would be over within a week, but started the
next day!  I would definitely use them again.

Responded to my request for an estimate within 24 hours - providing a comprehensive description of work to be provided. This really saves time when comparing estimates.  With this kind of work, you want to know if the debris is going to be removed as part of the cost.  Completed the work within 24 hours of contract being awarded.  Team members were all professional, polite and friendly.  The work was beyond my expectations -  You would never know those trees had been there.  They removed all the wood chips and debris  and left my yard clean as a whistle.  I would highly recommend this company and am actually going to ask them to do further work for me later in the month.

I found Graver personable and professional, from quoting through project execution.
Quoting happened very promptly, and the work started the following week.
Graver tree service structure their jobs by crew, so we had one crew in the morning taking down and chipping up the trees into the back of a truck, followed by a stump-grinder that arrived later, followed by a stump-chip removal and clean-up crew.
The clean-up crew, had a small front-loader tractor to take away excess grind-chips and cleaned up the lawn area after the stump grinder using rakes and leaf blowers.  The lawn looked as before Graver came to do work, except for some tire depressions from the tree removal truck. The drivers took care not to tear the lawn up, and the depressions are not more than I was expecting, I'm only mentioning it in case whoever is reading isn't thinking to expect that.
Once the last crew removed the excess chip piles from the old maple stump, they found two thick "legs" of roots near the surface that had been hidden by the chips.  They called in to have the grinder come back out then told me they had called it in.  The grinder returned the following morning/day and finished. I wasn't home so I'm not sure if he cleaned up himself, or if the cleanup guys also returned, all I know is that by the time I was home the following day, everything was perfect.
I bought two bags of nice soil, watered down the wood-chips, spread the new soil on top, added grass seeds and expect the grass to grow in nicely within a few weeks, hiding the fact that the trees had ever been there.
Of the 5 quotes I got for the job, Graver gave the best price, though they were all within a couple of hundred of one-another, most expensive to least expensive.
 
Overall, I found Graver and his crews of workers to be timely, professional and hard working and I would use them again in a heartbeat.  A+

I had the police show up at my door because my neighbor was upset when a tree in my yard fell over into their yard and bent their fence. I called Graver Tree Service the next morning at 6:30am and Mr. Graver answered my call. He explained what my responsibility was and if I was responsible for removal of the tree from my neighbor's yard and my options. It turned out that I was only responsible for the cost to remove the tree that was in my yard. Two days later the tree was removed and I also had the service take care of a tree that died after a storm.

The Graver workers were very hard working and thorough. The trees had many large, dead branches.

Efficient, meticulous and thorough. Respectful and attentive.

Very professional; responded very soon after call initiated with (very fair) estimate; approved go-head that day; Graver Tree sent one guy to grind the stump within a couple of days; a second set of guys came for clean up. All very nice people to deal with. Would recommend them to anyone!

Bruce Graver (the owner) was prompt in returning a phone call (within about 24 hours). His employees showed up and quot;the following weekand quot; to take care of the trees, just as he said they would. They worked efficiently, cleaned up after themselves and reinstalled my stockade fence when they were done. And the price is just right. The pruned trees look good, although they took off much more than I expected they would. This is the first time I have ever had trees pruned, so I really can't make a judgment on this, just warning others who hire a tree expert that this can happen. I have hired Graver Tree Care in the past, and will continue hiring them in the future, as needed. The only recommendation I would like to add is that he and his customers are both clear on what the time frame means; When they say and quot;next weekand quot; does it mean that Graver Tree Care will call you back next week to give you a definite date, or will they work on your property sometime and quot;next week.and quot; I was surprised to get a phone call, while I was at work, telling me that they were at my house. A warning would definitely have been nice. All in all, a good experience.

Bruce contacted me within 24 hours of my request for quote. Provided a quote for the task within 24 hours. The price was excellent and could be scheduled quickly.
Sent his crew out, arrived on time, performed the work, cleaned up and leveled the areas.
Spectacular work across the board.

The work was done quickly, professionally and the price was right. Very good clean up as well afterward which is very important.
