I was impressed by the honesty from this company in saying they were really booked up and might be 6 weeks before they could get to my trees as there was storm damage they were cleaning up. They called and updated me as to when they would get to the job. When they did arrive, it was a well choreographed crew. Everyone was working together to get the trees safely down and disposed of in the chipper. They were done in one day and cleaned up the mess caused by the trees being taken down with the exception of the stump grindings.. I was extremely impressed with the professionalism and expertise of this company. The only thing I would do differently is after they ground the stumps, I would have paid the extra $200 to have them remove the grindings. I thought I could do it and was sadly mistaken. I wound up paying the landscaping company to remove them when I had sod put down this spring. This was my fault and not theirs. I would highly recommend this company and would definitely use them again. Laura Smolnicky

Erwin Tree Service responded quickly to our request for an estimate, which was very reasonable. They called us with a date and time, and they were very punctual. The crew was friendly, efficient, and did a great job. They hauled away the wood and brush, and cleaned up the area. We recommend them highly!

They're always on time, and we always get the same people. They are very easy to be around and are very nice guys. They do a good job with the work, and I never have any clean up to do, they take care of it all. When they leave, it's almost like they haven't been there. They did an excellent job on all of the trees, and I will be having them back to do more in the future.
Description of Work: Erwin Tree Care raised and thinned out two Red Maples for me this year and in 2008. In 2012, they raised a Hickory Tree so the corner of the yard would get more light.

It went well. I called for an estimate and received one within a few weeks. A knowledgeable, professional and punctual arborist made recommendations. They work was scheduled but it took several phone calls to complete. The final result looks good and clean up was reasonable. It was expensive I get the impression is that there is a wait and cost for good tree care professionals.

This time was just a minor trim. In 2012 we had them do our large tree in back yard and they were excellent. They took down a portion of our fence and used a small bucket machine to maneuver into the yard. Nothing was damaged; trees were trimmed very well; and they cleaned everything up. We also love their resident arborist, Russell, who LOVES & KNOWS trees!

We were concerned about it being weak and taking out the roof of our neighbor's garage or our fence. They also trimmed dead limbs from a large Locust tree. We first paid to have the arborist come out to assess all of our trees and received some very good advice. Definitely worth it. They are professional, safety concious and very reasonable. Their estimate was detailed and professionally done. We will be calling them back to do more work in the new year.

Erwin Tree Care came out to provide a quote for removing one large oak tree and trimming 3 other trees in approximately August. An appointment was available in a time that worked for me 2 days after initially placing a call. They seemed knowledgeable about the trees and when was the best time to perform removal and trimming. However, prices were extremely high compared to two other price quotes I received. Also, this provider was the only provider who would not trim by hand. They used heavy equipment for lifts. I have a sprinkler system that I did not want to be damaged. The possible damage and high price is why we chose to have another provider perform the work.

Thank you for the input, very sorry you did not get a chance to experience our service. Your concerns over the equipment we understand. We do however have an inventory of equipment and use a small portable lift that is no bigger when folded up than a riding lawn mower. The crew travels with full line of equipment to handle all types of jobs daily and they usually assess a job before starting when onsite to make sure they use the best piece of equipment for the job along with hand trimming trees. We would love to do your next trim job or removal so you could experience the knowledge of our crew. Our price reflects the knowledge, certification and training of our crew. We also pride ourselves on the level of service we provide and professional atmosphere from the moment we receive a call to completion of payment. We would love a chance to prove we are true professionals.

Russell, an arborist for the company came out 7/1/13 and gave us an estimate for the work. The estimate was $250 less than the next best quote. The work was completed on 7/23/13 by Keith and his crew. Work was done exactly as requested.

Their price is a little expensive, but them we feel like we got what we paid for. So, it's worth it to us because they do exactly what we ask and they offer suggestions and they kind of act as an adviser to us when we have certain things going on. So, they have been quite helpful.
Description of Work: We use Erwin Tree Care. They do all of our trees. They planted a baby tree for us in the backyard and dug up an old tree that had died off. They have even treated two trees that I have gotten some type of sickness. They also trimmed all of our other trees in our property. So, we are using them quit frequently.

The owner of the company, who is an arborist, came out to give us the estimate. We had just purchased the home so there were some bushes we were unfamiliar with. He was able to tell us what they were and when we should trim them ourselves once we felt they were trimmed down to where we wanted them. The team that came out to do the actual work did a great job, made recommendations based on their experience and also listened to my concerns and ideas as to how I wanted the bushes to look. Everything looked great when completed. Great experience overall and would use them again!
Description of Work: Trimmed 3 trees, removed 1 tree and trimmed roughly 12 bushes in our yard. Two of the trees had branches that were over the roof of our home.

I actually called Erwin a year ago and their arborist promptly came out and gave me an itemized estimate, so that I could choose exactly what work I wanted done. I waited a year (personal reasons) and called them again. This time the arborist again arrived at 9:00 on the dot, as was scheduled, and took another look around the yard and was so pleasant and knowledgeable. He quoted me the same price as the year before, as I decided to only have four trees done. He advised it would be approx. 3-4 weeks before they could get me worked into their schedule. In about 3 weeks Dina called me to put me on the work schedule for an exact day and time and again confirmed with me via phone the day before the workers were to arrive. The crew arrived exactly when she said they would and the foreman, who does most of the actual cutting, was very professional, yet friendly. These are experts - not like some hack jobs I have seen my neighbors suffer through. They did exactly what they said they would, when they said they would and cleaned everything up beautifully before they left. My only concern is for my plants and flowers, as the workmen were not as careful as I would have liked with regard to stepping into my flower beds. Perhaps when everything comes back next spring, there will be no damage. Since the work was done in November, most of my plants had died back or been frosted and were finished for this season anyway. I know I paid more for this service and could have had someone else do it for less, but my trees are precious to me and I was willing to pay to have arborists who are certified trim my trees the right way.
Description of Work: General trimming of low hanging branches and some thinning out of 4 maple trees, 2 of which are over 30 years old and had never been trimmed.

This is the reason we have Angieslist. What a find! This is more than a tree service, they are arborists - and a mult-generation business with old school values. I could not ask for anything more. My only regret is that this is their only business. This is the trust, reliability, and knowledge you hope for whenever you hire. Top notch all the way.

They first sent out someone to look at the job and provide an actual estimate, which he reviews with you before he leaves. He was very professional and informative. I then called the office to schedule, there was a approximate 2 week wait. When the crew arrived I was shocked that there were so many workmen. After seing them at work I understand why. They did a fantastic job right down to the clean up. I was so pleased I have decided to have them do further work. The price was competitive.
