I used Usman Ahmad previously and was happy with his promptness and results. So I called him again when I needed limbs removed that were touching our house. We made an appointment. As it turned out, Hurricane Matthew came before our appointment and as a result, besides the limbs, we had a tree that fell on our house and needed removing. Usman was late for our appointment so I called him and he did come over later that day. We agreed on a price that was quite high, 1450.00 for probably 6 limbs removed and a skinny tree, and that his workers would do the work the following week. They did come and removed the limbs and cut down the tree at the base and left it where it fell. They were supposed to cut it up and haul it down the property. My husband called Usman twice to report his unhappiness with the work and finally the workers came back to do the work we had agreed on. I am disappointed because I really like Usman and it is hard to find a good, honest, reliable tree service. After this experience I will find someone else.
Description of Work: We needed a few limbs that were touching the house removed, and a small tree that fell on our house during Hurricane Matthew.

Response from Arborex Tree Services
Thank you for your business and we regret that it didn't go as well as it should have been. We very much want to be your tree service company but we apologize for not being able to deliver what we had promised in timely fashion. Hurricane Matthew got us extremely busy - your business absolutely does matter- but we were slightly short staffed and were pulled to the jobs which required my entire crew and equipment for longer periods of times than expected. I also apologize for the miscommunication between my crew and I. Your tree work should have been done right the first time but my crew misunderstood as to what/how the tree limbs, broken/bent trees need to be removed. Once we returned a few weeks later (Apology again that you needed to call us two times) my crew and I got the tree work done exactly how we had originally talked about. I want you to know that your business and long term relationship is very important to me and I will go above and beyond your expectation to save this relationship. Kindly give us one more shot. Thank you for considering us again. Usman

Arborex was one of 3 called for pricing and availability. They beat the competition on price and timeframe. Work was done quickly and very professional in every manner.
Description of Work: We had a large Bradford Pear tree split a number of large limbs creating quite a mess and urgency to remove this and another tree.

Contacted them by email after storm. I did advise that it was not an emergency. Three days later I received a call from the owner of the company. He said he would be out the next morning to look at the tree. I received a call about 9am and he had already looked at the tree. We discussed a price and agreed. Their price was about 1/3 of other prices I had received. I expected it to be a couple of weeks before they could get to the work due to the storm. The owner told me they would be here that afternoon. The crew arrived with 3 trucks and 6 people. We discussed the work to be done and they got to work. I have our cable line which was buried very close to the root ball. The trunk was also suspended over a stone wall. The employees really knew how to use the equipment and got everything done with no damage to the cable or wall. I asked them to cut up the trunk into firewood size for our neighbor. They took the trunk to the neighbor house and cut it to the length he wanted. Everything was cleaned up and they were done in about 45 minutes. Other companies told me it would take 2-4 hours and a crane was needed. It was obvious that they knew what they were doing and how to operate the machines. The owner called when they were here to make sure things were going well and again when they finished to make sure I was happy.
Description of Work: Oak tree came down due to Matthew. Large root ball and debris. Removed all and ground stump.

They did an excellent job. I was impressed by their attention to safety as much as their work ethic. They are a well trained team that got the work done quickly to our satisfaction, and their cleanup afterward was amazing. We would not hesitate recommending them as a quality outfit!

Great! They trimmed the trees as needed and asked for my judgements twice as they worked. They also did a great job cleaning up the debris, grinding and hauling it off. I was very pleased with their work! In fact, they did such a good job that there were no fallen limbs and debris to clean up after hurricane Matthew.
Description of Work: Tall trees (mostly pines) needed to be trimmed off my house, driveway and street. The limbs from my trees with limbs hanging over neighbor's houses needed to be trimmed.

Owner was very punctual for estimate and team arrived right on time on scheduled job date. The team knows what they are doing and not a single branch touched the house during removal. The job took 4.5 hours and they worked continuously. Very professional and cleaned up well.

Uzman was extremely knowledgeable about the trees surrounding my home, and quickly identified two that posed a danger should a storm come through. He also helped us save some that we loved, which weren't doing well. He explained the quote thoroughly and the cost was extremely reasonable. The team was also very professional. I would definitely recommend Arborex to anyone needing professional tree trimming and removal services.

I could tell by their equipment that they would have been prepared for a bigger job than this. It was small for them, but too big for suburban homeowner afraid of dropping a tree on the house. They were quick to make contact after my Angie's List request but I had to followup to get an appointment. Communication was a little iffy but I chocked it up to using a coupon and they might have been very busy. They estimated a week lead time but they were in the area the day after my estimate and called to see if it was ok to stop by and take out the tree (YES!) so the job was done really quickly. They made short work of taking down the tree and cleaned up afterward like they were never here. They cut the stump low to the ground and I am happy with the result. One less thing on my to-do list.

Everything went exceedingly well. The owner came out to provide the estimate and explain the potential pitfalls of the work. He then let us make our decision on which way to go. He ordered the utility locating work before he even left. We had a deadline so the owner arranged the work in a timely manner and the crew came when he said they would. The process was flawless and they expertly dropped the trees with less effort than they thought it would take. We were so impressed, we will be calling them again for another few trees before our house goes on the market for sale.
Description of Work: We had two large trees that needed to be dropped in the yard and the stumps needed to be ground. One was next to our pool, the other next to our large LP tank. It was a pretty delicate job.

Thank you for your business and we appreciate you taking the time writing us a review here on Angie's list. But we sincerely apologize for the experience and inconvenience this may have caused you. We always try our best to provide an excellent timely services. However this one time around we were out of town on vacation and didn't have crews operating for two weeks. Upon our return we were extremely backed up and simply over looked our schedule. Where we missed our appointments with you, we still appreciate your business and respect your patience. If at any moment in future we can be of assistance please reach out to us, we would love to go above and beyond our powers to satisfy your needs and to make up for your last experience with our company. At Arborex, you and your business do matter and we would like to show that commitment to you at our next opportunity. Thank you again.
