Harper's Tree Service

Removed large limbs as discussed, removed some Spanish moss, then told me unable to remove rest because too difficult. Removed some sucker branches. Remove most of waste. Supposed to come back an finish, but never has. Called multiple times and promised to be there that day or the next; obviously never intends to come back. I still have two 5" round limbs lying in some shrubbery waiting. I have a cracked paver from a big limb which got out of control. I was not expecting perfection, but they have proven to be just be crooks. I wish I had seen Angie's List before I used them. They should be exposed and put out of business.

DO NOT HIRE THIS COMPANY! They were hired to cut down three trees and remove all of the debris. The first day they cut down a pine tree and let it fall into the middle of the street, which is also the only way in and out of our subdivision. They completely blocked all traffic in and out of our neigborhood with no warning. Not only did our neighbors have people driving completely through their beautiful lawn..... but the owner proceded to drive his truck through their yard as well. Then he actually parked his truck on their lawn and they sat inside the truck having conversation instead of getting the tree out of the middle of the street that was blocking all traffic. My neighbor was upset and told them to get their truck off of her grass...and these guys had the nerve to start yelling at her being rude and disrespectful. The police were called but by the time they arrived they had moved their truck out of her yard. This was only the beginning of our problems with them. They removed two panels of our six foot privacy fence to make their job easier. At the end of that day, they reattached the fence panels crooked and at the wrong height. I asked if they were going to correct that when they came back to finish the job the next day. I was told that they would. My husband paid them $700 in cash, and they asked for $60 more so that the owner could "cover his payroll". My husband gave them the money and they said they would be back at 9:00 am. I then picked up the garbage and wrappers that they left all over my yard, and surveyed the damage that they did to my plants. They killed 4 of my plants! They also dropped a tree on our screened in room, ripping the screen and bending the frame. We were told that they would fix it. After they left, my husband and I were absolutely stunned as we walked around to the outside of the fence and saw that the trailer that was piled sky high with logs and tree debris was SITTING IN OUR YARD! THEY PARKED IT IN OUR GRASS AND LEFT IT OVERNIGHT! I was shocked and infuriated that anyone would park something so heavy in our grass causing ruts to be made. They didn't show up or call the next morning so my husband called them at 10:00. They said they were waiting for the owner. They showed up at 3:20pm without the owner. They brought a few pieces of old moldy screen that didn't fit. They also removed our fence panel again under the pretence that they were going to clean up the rest of the debris from our yard. They then told my husband that they didn't have any money to take the trailer to the dump. My husband gave them $100. They said they were going to dump to unload the trailer and that they would be right back. We haven't seen them since! They just took off and left our fence off....our yard trashed....4 dead plants....a huge screen panel missing......a bent frame to our screened in room...and ruts in our grass. My husband and I scheduled vacation time off of work to plant trees and flowers along our back fence. We've been unable to do anything at all back there because the debris that they agreed to haul away is piled up the whole length of the fence. We have called numerous times and spoke to the owner and his wife. We have gotten the same reply every time....excuses and a GUARANTEE that they will be here to finish the job at such and such time. Meanwhile, our entire day is wasted waiting for them to show up. This morning his wife actually told me that the owner (Chris) "was in the shower and that the guys were getting ready to leave. They were just getting a late start". I've also seen this company advertised as Michele A Harper Tree Service. Beware of this company!
