Mark evaluated the immediate work we needed done and provided a quote. He also toured our newly purchased property, identified trees for us and reviewed their health, and gave suggestions for ideal trees to plant. Work was scheduled within a week and completed in one day.

It was a very large leaning oak. Job completed. Great work, but thought stump removal was included. Was referred to someone else for that service.

Please do not hire Primeau Tree Service, Mark Primeau owner, if you care about your neighbors.  He does not!  We did not hire Mark, but our next door neighbor did.  He took the liberty of parking his equipment in our driveway. Not at the bottom of our driveway but up near our backyard, WITHOUT our permission.  His equipment left a big nasty oil/grease stain in our concrete driveway that is less than five years old.  He had branches all over our yard/driveway.  The tree branches from a 50+ year old tree were dropped along our chainlink fence.  He left it like that for awhile, unitl he came back to pick up the wood.  He did a fair job of that, not a good job, but never looked twice at the stain.  Again, we did not hire them.  We did not give permission to park in our driveway, but we got a lovely stain to remember him by.  DO NOT HIRE HIM!

Job was done quickly and cleanly. It was hot and miserable out and Mark and his assistant did an amazing job. I was very persnickety and he was kind and gracious in dealing with me. When done and had put his gear away, I requested one more tree limb to be cut down. He went beyond my expectation and took care of what was requested, truly a professional at customer service. 
 Please use this company for any tree trimming and shrubs you need work on. I highly recommend Mark and Primeau's Tree Service. My neighbor had hired him and I managed to get the work done the same day he gave me an estimate. Thank you Mark for being so kind and easy to work with. Hiring anyone to do work on my house is always stressful and you made my day.  Thanks again!!!!!

Mark came & gave me a very fair estimate with a scope of work as well as an idea of when they'd be able to get to my job. He was professional & courteous. I'll certainly call again for future trimming needs.

I received the estimate on a Thursday and the work was done the very next day. I was in no hurry, but it was okay with me when I received the call to say that they were in my area and wanted to do the work within the next hour or so. The bid was the lowest of the three bids that I had received and they had done work for some of my neighbors. I liked how clean their yards looked after the work had been done, so I decided to hire them. The stump grinding was done by a separate company at an additional cost, but I was fine with that. Everything was done quickly and professionally.

I had 2 red pine trees in the back yard that were dying. They were about 12 inches in diameter at the base and about 35 - 40 feet tall. After contemplating cutting them down myself, I consulted Angie's list and called Primeau's Tree Service. Mark came out promptly and gave me a very reasonable estimate to cut and remove the 2 trees. I told Mark there was no hurry, so he came out about 2 weeks later and quickly and efficiently removed the 2 trees. They ground up everything (not the stumps) with a chipper into his truck and raked the yard clean. He cut the stumps very close to the ground, as I had asked, so I can just rake pine needles over them. The whole process took a little over an hour - very quick.
I was very satisfied with the work done and the price.

Contacted Primeau on Wednesday evening. He came out Thursday evening as scheduled to give an estimate. He had availability to perform the work the very next day. When I got home the next evening, the tree was trimmed exactly as agreed upon and without a hint of a mess left behind. They even took a couple dead branches off another tree at no additional cost. I was very pleased with their work and would definitely use them again.

Excellent service from time of estimate through completion of job. Very professional. Crew worked diligently and carefully and had the tree removed in around 30-40 minutes. All waste was removed. Stump grinder returned the next day as promised and, likewise, did excellent work and cleaned up all waste. Overall, a great value at around half the price of some other estimates.

Did a great job with minimal disruption to the yard to remove a 95' tree. His was the lowest of three bids but I marked the price just Good because it is just so expensive to have a big tree removed. It took about a half day and the yard was thoroughly cleaned up afterwords. He was recommended to us by a St Paul policeman, so he knew he was an honest guy!!

They were very prompt and did the work the next day. He was done within 15 minutes to half an hour. Nothing was left behind and he was very professional.

Company was very responsive. Called me with an estimate within an hour of contacting them. I hired them and they did a great job. Site was cleaned up after they finished. Price seemed reasonable. Very polite and professional on the phone.

The service was OK, but not great. They did get out and shovel in a timely manner, but I had to contact them to come out a second time after noticing that the sidewalk had not been cleared fully from side to side - only one shovels width was cleared. I felt a professional service could have done better getting down to the pavement, rather than leaving a coating of snow. Also had to ask that they go back after a huge snowfall to fully clear the corner through to the street when the plows had plowed in the end of the sidewalk. I question whether I was charged for more than the number of times we received 2 inches of snow. Overall, I was underwhelmed by the work done.
