I hired this guy for multiple things. First was cleaning up and removal of 2 old barn demolition and clean up. Seeming how good of job he did, I asked him if he would be willing to do ceder tree removal on my fence line of my 80 acres. He said he could do it. He did a great job. Great work...

I don’t remember the exact amount but I thought it was a fair estimate. The younger gentleman was very professional but I didn’t want to deal with a cellulose product because it compacts quickly compared to other products.
