Jeffries Tree Removal

Professional. Excellent cleanup.

Shane (the owner) was very responsive and professional. He was come out within three days for a quote on our tree trimming and the same day to quote our tree removal. We got three quotes on the tree trimming and his was the lowest. We didn't get additional quotes for the removals as we liked his work and were confident he would give us a fair price. I was home for the tree trimming. We had a large maple, elm, and a smaller tree trimmed as some of the limbs were starting to rest on our roof. His team was professional, courteous, and Shane answered all of my questions. They did have to remove more limbs than we initially talked about, but I was very pleased with the end result. We weren't able to be home for the cedar tree removal, but we had spoken with Shane during the quote and it was very straightforward for what we wanted done. When we came home, there was no evidence that Shane and his crew had been there other than the trees were gone. It looks like he even filled in any areas with dirt where they removed the roots/stumps. I would highly recommend Jeffries Tree Removal to anyone, and have even recommended them to my parents for some work they need done.

Shane responded promptly to my phone call and came to the house to assess the job. He was personable and knowledgeable, and gave us many helpful suggestions and options. When the day came for the work to be done, he showed up right on time with a proficient and very professional and courteous crew, and all the right equipment. One branch was removed using his bucket truck as a platform, the other taken down "old school" by climbing the tree (with all appropriate safety gear and practices in place). They worked efficiently, and cleaned up thoroughly after the job. We would definitely bring in Shane and his crew again for similar projects.

Absolutely outstanding. The job was started within a week of initial contact. They took down a fence and moved perrenials before starting in order to gain access to the back yard. The tree was carefully taken down and hauled away. They ground the stump and levelled and raked the spot, bringing in black dirt where needed to leave the ground level. The area was left ready for seeding. They then reinstalled the fence and replanted my perrenials. Best tree service I have ever worked with.

I received an excellent service from Shane. I called him, left a message and shortly after he called me back. He came to my house the very same day. I needed some top trimming of a number of very high trees to increase light in the house. He carefully examined them, made some interesting suggestions. He is a listener and is very personable and professional, wanting to do a job that will please the customer. On the following day, I received an e-mail with a detailed job proposal with cost. I waited for bids from other companies. I selected Shane. He returns calls and lets you know in advance if he cannot come. He did a great job trimming the trees around the house and checked with me to see if everything was done as I expected. Nice clean-up too. It was very nice working with him. I will get back to him for any future tree-related work. I highly recommend him!

A crew of 4 showed up at 10:25. Set up. The tree was down and everything was cleaned up in 25 min or less. Shane is very approachable and very nice. It was not a huge tree, but was in between the cable and power line coming into the house. No issues whatsoever.

Shane does an amazing job!!! He is very professional and courteous to work with. He was very friendly to our children and worked with us to keep them safe and happy while he performed his job. He was very diligent and we would be happy to have him back any time we can use his services. His customer service is #1 above anyone we have ever worked with before!!! He made sure everything was done to our satisfaction and had excellent follow up to ensure our happiness :-) He also referred us to a few other contractors that helped us out and were also wonderful to work with :-)

Two of my next door neighbors had several tress removed from their residential properties. I asked them if they were happy with the service they recieved and they said yes. So I asked them for the name and number of who did the work for them. They referred me to Jeffries Tree Removal (989) 205-4644. I called Shane Jeffries (owner) in the afternoon and asked him when he could come out and give me an estimate to cut down one, very large tree (diameter at the base was 4 feet) and several branches from several other trees. The branches I wanted removed were up 20 -40 feet. I told shane I only wanted the tree cut down. I told him I would take care of limbing and cutting the tree up for firewood myself. I have my own chainsaw and have been cutting wood for 40 years. However, the large tree I wanted cut down was close to my house and was too big and too risky for me to cut down on my own. I called Shane's phone number and got his message service. I left my name and number. Shane called back within the hour. Shane said he was just finishing up a job that afternoon and could come over in the evening around 5 pm if that worked for me. I was very pleased he was so responsive. He came out (on time) and gave me an estimate that evening. $400 to drop the large tree and $50 to cut down the branches. I was expecting about $400 - $500 to cut down the large tree so I agreed to the quote and we set up a day to have the work done. The next day I decided I wanted a second tree cut down. So I call Shane to see if he could add the second tree to the already agreed upon work scope. I got his phone message service again and left a message. Shane is a younger man who started his own business a few years ago. His business is growing and therefore I don't think he has a secretary to answer phones for him yet. So the times I did call him I got his answering service. This would ordinarily bother me but since Shane responds to messages very promply it wasn't an issue (this is the only reason I gave a B rating on responsiveness). Shane said it was no problem to add the second tree to the job. Shane showed up on the work day on time. He had two workers to help him. He arrived with a large dump truck towing a large limb grinding machine. I was impressed his business was doing well enough to obtain such large and nice equipment. Shane agreed to cut down the second tree for $100. It was a smaller tree of about 1.5 feet in diameter. It too was close to my house and I felt it was too risky cutting it down myself. Shane dropped the two tree EXACTLY where he wanted them to fall. Then we started cutting branches. Shane has the skills to climb the trees using climbing gear. This was nice since he didn't have to drive on my lawn with a large truck and mess up my lawn. While cutting down the branches I added several more branches on several more trees to what we originally agreed upon. Obviously it too more time to cut down the additional branches. I figured Shane would charge me at least another $50 - $100 for the extra branches. He had to climb about eight trees to get all the branches. He did a great job not dropping the large branches into my flower beds. He was very concious about not damaging my lawn and beds. Shane and the two other workers were very polite and professional. I was out there the entire time they did the job and really enjoyed working with them. At the end of the job Shane charged me $500 for the entire job. I was expecting $400 for the large tree, $100 for the second, and $100 -$125 for the branches. I think Shane dropped the price on the large tree since he was able to drop it easier than anticipated. I asked him if he was sure $500 was enough. And he said yes, that was fine. So I opened the door for him to charge me more and he didn't take advantage of the situation. So, bottome line, very happy with the work. Very happy to support a young man who has the initiative to start his own business and is providing jobs for his employees. I live in an upscale neighborhood and my neighbors and I expect a professional job. Shane delivered.
