A BUDGET TREE SERVICE INC

About us

Our philosophy since 1993, with the promotion of the International Society of Arboriculture in this region, has been to educate our consumers to proper pruning structure and techniques. We developed a specific program for main stem development and proper pruning techniques that defied the norm in this area. All of the tree pruners of this time were taught to “clean up” the trees and virtually strip them of growth between the trunks & main stems out to the tips (lions-tailing) – through education and perseverance we managed to develop and maintain a recommendable amount of customers who were interested in proper pruning and main stem development and the importance of Urban Forestry.

Ben and the other three on his team did an excellent job. Ben first discussed with me what was to be done to ensure that we were in agreement on the work. Then Ben proceeded to use a powered saw on the end of a long pole to trim the lower branches on the two trees near the back fence and the overhanging branches from the back-yard neighbor's trees. He then used a tracked vehicle with a bucket lift to trim the suckers and thin out the foliage all the way to the top on the two other trees, one beside the house and the other by the side fence. This was in preparation for the hurricane season. His handiwork on thinning out the trees was both functional and artistic. He and his crew picked up all the cuttings and debris and ran them throuogh a chipper. They did all this efficientely in 2-3 hours.

They were "on time", did exactly what was requested and left everything as clean and neat at when they arrived. Very happy with them and will use them again in the future

The team at A Budget Tree Service are AMAZING. From my communication via phone and text with Antonia to the incredible crew that came out (Q, Markice, AJ and Tim) everyone is professional, courteous and helpful. We will definitely be future customers and recommend them to friends and family. When you find a quality contractor like this, you stick with them! Great customer service is rare these days. I started trimming my Crepe Myrtle myself from my roof with a pole saw. Let me tell you, tree trimming quickly escalates into a major job! I couldn't finish it plus I had a driveway full of branches higher than my garage door! A Budget Tree service came out, finished the job and cleaned up every branch I had. They saved us, and I couldn't be happier with their work. Next time, I'm calling them first! A-plus service from start to finish.

Excellent service, very professional and cleanup work well done. Tree climber professional, walked yard before job, discussed items for work and proceeded with job. Cleanup crew did very good job. I have been using Budget Tree Service for over 35 year. They have a professional arborist on staff which is very helpful in determining issues on trees. Thank you all for your work.

Out of few estimates we decided to hire A Budget Tree Service to trim several trees before hurricane season. The salesman explained the do's and don't of the trimming we requested. He laser pointed to the areas we wanted trimmed and photographed it which were sent with our estimate. Because of his knowledge, we chose them to do the job. The four man crew showed up on time and got to work right away. They had a couple of rain delays during the day because some of the trimming required a climb. The crew was polite, professional, and respectful of the property, cleaning up debris as they went. We did a final walk-through with the crew leader to make sure we were satisfied. They did a great job and we would recommend A Budget Tree Service!

We had a Camphor tree in our front yard that needed 4 limbs trimmed off the house and driveway. They arrived early and took care of trimming and cleaned up debris as well as blowing the debris off the porch and driveway! I would highly recommended and use them in the future Satisfied Customer, M.L. Smith

The property was covered in Palmeadow‘s, vines, scrub oak and 30 years of overgrowth. The transformation is more. than our original expectations. Both Curtis and Andre were very professional with just terrific customer service. Needless to say we are awestruck with the beautiful property they uncovered for us.

Tree was partially cut down due to weather issues. Due to personell reasons they were not able to come back to the following week and did not show up on the day they were scheduled to. Removal of stump grindings which I paid extra for was challenging. Overall the quality of the work was good.

All went very well until I discovered that they accidently cut down a tree that was only supposed to have been trimmed. A lot of communication on my part to get the problem resolved.

The gentlemen arrived on time and went right to work. They removed the tree methodically and professionally right down to the stump. The person handling the stump grinding arrived two days later and went to work and finished the job to our complete satisfaction. We would definitely use this Company again should the need arise.

A Budget Tree Service was one of three companies that I asked to come to my home and give me an estimate on tree trimming. After talking with all three companies, I chose A Budget Tree Service for several reasons. First of all, their bid was more in line with what I thought the job should cost. Their company estimator was very through in his explanation of what he thought should or should not be trimmed and why. I was impressed with his knowledge of Florida trees and their growth patterns. The crew came on the day promised, trimmed exactly what we had agreed upon and left absolutely no mess in the yard. Now I am no longer worried about my trees during the coming hurricane season.

I was very upset at the lack of respect for my specific concerns and property.

At the intial visit, I made it very clear how important my landscape and plants were to me. I am a gardener which means I'm always out planting and taking care of my yard. I did not want any existing plants damaged in the process of the tree removal. We discussed the path for removal to avoid any impact. On the day of work, I spoke with the Lead person, again emphasizing my concern about damage to exisitng plants and that I wanted them to be very careful. As they started work, one crew member stepped on a plant on his way to the side yard. I observed this looking from the window inside into the front yard. I immediately went outside to again say to be careful, this time in front of the whole crew. Unfortunately, I had an appointment and needed to leave. Because I felt I was clear about my concerns, I thought everything would be OK. However, when I returned the surrounding plants were all flattened, apparently when lowering the heavy branches, and the crew attempting to catch it and carry it out to the front for haul away.

When the invoice arrived, I did pay it because they completed the work, but I attached a letter to the owner stating how upset I was that three times my concerns were ignored. I attached pictures of the plant damage expecting a response of some sort.

I never heard back.

I feel this company does not respect their client's concerns and property which to me shows a lack of professionalism.

I will not use them again as they cut down the wrong tree and the wrong branch. I spent about $800 on the job. The owner came back and did all the work at no charge. He admitted liability and admitted that his workers were wrong. However, he was the first one who came out and told them the wrong thing. If you are using them, I would say that you need to be careful and watch them. The work itself was done correctly; it wasn’t shoddy. It was just that he didn’t listen to what I wanted. The price was good, too. It was just that they did the wrong thing. It ruined my experience with them. I might use them again, but I will watch them like a hawk.

Considering the circumstances they could have really taken me to the cleaners. I really expected the one tree to be $1200 by itself, and when I got the bill I was thoroughly amazed. Very satisfying experience.

Their bid was lowest of 3 I received-$800, $900 and $1600. They showed up on time Tuesday to remove the trees and haul away. They were to show up on Friday to perform balance of work but were unable to do so due to an illness of a crew leader. Showed up on following Wed afternoon as re-scheduled and did the balance of work. As an apology for missing the original appointment, they installed a much larger and beautiful 45 gal Magnolia without my asking or submitting a complaint about missing the Friday appointment. Both crews got along famously among themselves smiling, laughing and enjoying themselves as they worked which was done fast and efficiently. They voluntarily cleaned their work-site up to my exacting satisfaction. As long as their price stays competitive, this is the outfit I want doing all my future tree service work!!!

Said they would trim the branches so the wind would be blowing through them. They canceled first appt. Came again and I didn't know they were coming. I had to get home so I would be here. Workers were very sullen. All the trees down to the lake hadn't been touched. He told me that it wasn't on his list to do. There was even a tree with a loose branch hanging that they didn't get. He did get that, but overall, I was very disappointed. I would not use them again.
