Amazing tree work, and I have hired a few. This 2-man team, James and his young grandson, are easily worth $300 an hour. And they show up with half a million dollars worth of heavy equipment, bucket truck and chipper truck, that ought to rent for $2,000 a day. James can even strap on spikes and climb with his chain saw, if needed. They made short work of my 2-acre yard that was already the best in MetroWest and is far better now. I highly recommend them. I saw a few negative reviews that were, IMO, churlish. Trust me: You can't go wrong here.

James came by to give an estimate of tree removal related to some storm damage we had.  In the process we also decide to take out a few additional trees in order to increase our replanting options.  In the end we had about 7 medium to large trees taken down.  He was very prompt in providing the estimate (the lowest of those we got) and was able to schedule the work within a couple of weeks.  In the end it was about two full days of work for the removal and cleanup.  This included removal of all the softwoods and cutting up of the hardwoods so that we could later split and use for firewood.  Quality of the work was good and I feel like I got a lot of value.

The estimate was given on the spot and the price was lower than the other 2 companies I called. Also, they were the only company that used a boom truck to get to the higher trees and limbs in the yard. The other 2 companies were going to climb the trees and prune them while they were dangling from the trees and tall ladders for the smaller ones that could not be climbed . I don;t think they would have been able to get half of the work done that James English was able to accomplish.
They used large sheets of plywood so the wheels of the boom truck did not chew up the yard. The work took all day and the yard looks amazing. They were able to clear aways years or overgrowth and deadwood. We are very pleased with the outcome and may have them back in the spring to do another section of the property.

My initial phone message was answered within a day. After reviewing situation he submitted cost estimate. Several days later work was scheduled and completed.

We were completely satisfied with the work done by James English. It was done in a professional and timely manner for a very reasonable price. He was very responsive when we first reached out to him and we enjoyed the consultation with him. He walked us around the whole property and explained to us everything that should be done. You could tell he has been doing this for years and was a true professional. We also liked that he was not forceful in having us complete all the recommendations he made to us. Once we agreed on all the work to be completed, he gave us an estimate on when he would initiate the job and he kept to his timeline. It only took him and his crew two days to complete the job! We were impressed. They didn't leave any mess behind. If we have any additional tree work that needs to be completed we will definitely use James English again.
