Please note this is simply a review only on responsiveness. I made my decision to contact Paul after reviewing his website and reviews on Angies list. I contacted the business phone number 3 times, which I left a message with my contact information. Then, I tried the cell phone on Paul's website. I waited 2 business days, which I think is fair to the business to return a call. It may be possible that Paul is very busy and unable to respond. I guess I'm frustrated because I really do care about my palms and want them to look better. This is really feedback for Paul and not intended to deter people from seeking his help.
Description of Work: I needed help with some palms that looked to be struggling.

Description of Work: Paul has 2 masters degrees in this field. Hence, when asked questions, he goes into incredible detail in his answers. He designed a fertilization plan for my Palms, some of these trees prefer acidic and some prefer alkaline soils, so the specific fertilizer mixes will vary. I have 2 Canary Island date Palms, 2 Royal Palms, 12 Christmas Palms, 2 Robelenie, 7 Coconuts, and 20 Majestics. Only 6 weeks into the program and most look real nice. This is an on going program. I think he comes back to add more nutrients first week of Novemeber.

I originally contacted Paul to set up an appointment to have him inspect my palms and tell me what was wrong with them and how we should go about treating them. He came by when I was home but never knocked on my door. He treated my palms, left me a note explaining what was wrong, and a bill for $145.00. I did not authorize him to treat my palms so I was rather perturbed that he did that. Only time will tell if my palms can be saved. I'm pretty sure two are beyond help.
Description of Work: Inspected my infected fox tail palms

Response from PAUL THE PALM DOCTOR
Sorry, [member name removed] that you didn't want me to proceed with the work, but time is/was of the essence and what could I have explained for you to do, when only my knowledge of soil chemistry and palm-specific tree mineral deficiencies should be used by me to get you the healthy trees that you are looking for. I am only, me, myself and I...if I told you what was my treatment plan, it needed installation immediately! I don't think that your trees were dying; if I did, they would NOT have been treated.

We had one palm that was struck by lighting and Paul has literally brought it back to life. He does great work and is very, very knowledgeable; I would say he is an expert in palms. I would highly recommend him to anyone! He comes to my home every 4 months and it is usually $250-$280, but I have 14 palm tress in my yard. He is fantastic!!!
Description of Work: He treats our palm trees.
