For the past 4 years, I have been using Camelot at my St Clair Shores house as well as 1 year at my cousin?s house in Shelby Township (this stopped when she passed away). In 2012, I had a small dying red maple in my front yard and an Austrian pine in my backyard that was struggling with a disease. After reviewing all of the trees in my yard, Camelot recommended cutting down the red maple in the front yard, a series of fungicide sprays for the Austrian pine, and trimming some of the other trees. In subsequent years, Camelot has recommended various other treatments and I have deferred to Camelot's professional judgement. This year I received a flyer from Camelot suggesting a comprehensive program and as an incentive Camelot would send me a free soil analysis. Once again, I deferred to Camelot's professional judgement.
As of December 2nd, I have never received the soil analysis promised last spring despite repeated calls to Camelot's office regarding the same. At the same time, I have noted several trees and bushes that Camelot has been treating are struggling and I expect significant losses in the spring. For one, the Austrian pine that Camelot has been treating doesn?t look any different than 4 years ago as I continue to lose many needles. In the front yard, I have many issues. The dogwood tree?s leaves started struggling in July and by late August they all shriveled up and turned brown, it is doubtful that the tree will recover in the spring. The west half of the boxwood hedge is turning brown/orange and again I question the health of the boxwood in the spring. Just behind the dogwood are 2 bushes (I am not sure of their name, they are both the same type) whereas the front bush closest to the dogwood lost all of its leaves several weeks before the other bush and again I expect a problem in the spring.
I know that Camelot are a worthy company and mean well yet somehow I have been lost in the volume of Camelot's business -- a good example is the soil report which I never received after several months of waiting. I have spent a couple of thousand dollars using Camelot's services and I question the validity of continuing to use Camelot's services when so many things are apparently going wrong. Honestly, what was the point of spending all of this money when the results have been dubious? It is disappointing to me because now in addition to suffering from all of the losses due to Camelot's mishandling of my account, I must consider finding a new trees service
Even after I sent a letter to them concerning these issues, I have never received any reply from Camelot.
Cleaned up after themselves
They'll be back in Spring for more work
All of the work was done while I was at work. When I arrived home all was taken care of, well, they forgot about a few saplings that were thrown in at the last minute. But when I told them about it was given a reduced price. They cleaned up after themselves spectacularly. I would recommend them to anyone have recommended them to family already.
