Bluestone Tree Service

Wednesday August 9, 2023 I had a huge silver maple tree in my back yard. Monday afternoon a large (24” diameter) limb fell over onto our neighbor’s shed. Matt came out to inspect the tree Tuesday morning. After a thorough inspection he found large decay within the main trunk and recommended removal. Today a 7 man crew arrived to take down this beast. Their teamwork along with their impressive machinery got the job done in one long day. Every worker was polite, efficient, professional and never did I hear an utterance of one profane word. After having a difficult time removing the main trunk (6’ in diameter) they graciously allowed my wife and I to have our picture taken on the stump. They even blew off the sawdust to make a good picture. They are worth every penny! “Quality is remembered long after price is forgotten.” I’ll never forget them.

This company is top notch and well worth the money. Their estimate was a little higher then some other tree services. But when they left there was ZERO wood chips, branches or leaves left in the yard. They also did not tear up my yard in anyway, they take all the extra steps to protect your lawn. We have used other company's before and they did leave a mess in the yard and ruts from driving the heavy equipment in the yard. I would recommend this company and worth the little extra money and your yard will be in perfect shape.

Short Review: Jerad and Bluestone were accomodating, patient, and professional. Disclosures: I don't know Jerad, not related by blood or marriage. I have only had this one business interaction with him. I am a paying customer. I am not some sort of internet reviewer for money. I say this because my long review sounds gushy. Long review: Jerad was incredibly patient with us when we were trying to set-up the removal of this 80-90 foot silver maple that overhung our house. If you don't know your trees, the silver maple is one of the crappiest. 70 years ago the developer of our neighborhood decided that he would plant them on every plot... They have a shallow root base, grow fast and wide and shed huge branches easily. I removed a couple of threatening branches myself, but I wasn't going to touch the massive one or the one overhanging the power lines. I got quotes from 4-6 contractors and they were all in the same ballpark, but Jerad/Bluestone had the least amount of scheduled work time. They also had the best equipment (tree mek-saw). I didn't worry at all about the branch falling on my house. Anyways, we had some hiccups in the process because we had to pivot to another home project first due to time deadlines and this caused some issues with financing. We kept getting ready to pull the trigger, but could never afford to. Jerad patiently worked with us and conformed to our schedule. No other company followed-up with me through the process. The day of the job, my family were all sick and I wasn't feeling it. I had forgotten that they were coming even though Bluestone sent me a reminder, and was just not ready to do anything. The Bluestone guys took care of everything (and our yard was a wreck). I didn't have to do anything. And unlike the other contractors (not tree guys) that I have worked with over the past 5 months not one of the Bluestone guys asked me to use my bathroom. Believe me when I say that's a huge plus after the last guy to use my bathroom... It almost killed my kid. I didn't want to use my bathroom after that. When Bluestone showed up, I also changed the plan up on them and asked them to do additional work that we hadn't even discussed. Jerad didn't even blink. Said he would get it done. I thought the job may take the whole day even with the mek-saw because of the additional work. Nope. These guys banged it out in 5 hours and that included clean-up. They even hauled off my unraked leaves. Something the city said they would do and never did. My yard looks better now then it did before and it was a rainy, muddy day. I can't say it any more clearly: This is the most professional outfit that I have worked with in terms of tree removal (also worked with Townsend here, independents up north, and dropped trees myself for money) and probably in general as far as contractors go. Again: Accommodating, patient and professional.

I think that they did a very good job.

everything went fine.

AWESOME! They care for their city!

Great! Did the work when they said they would, communicative, high-quality service.

Communication via phone and internet was so good that we didn't need to meet in person.  Weather caused some delay due to soggy driveway, but our job was not an emergency situation.  Bluestone chose their optimal workday for the hilly and somewhat distant site, and their work completely fulfilled our exact requests at a very fair price that was clearly established in advance.

They gave me one of the best price quotes and performed the work in a timely manner. Very professional.
