Acme did an outstanding job! Their estimate for the work was very reasonable.  The job required a large degree of skill because the limbs, about 30-35 inches in circumference, extended above our house, a picket fence, and patio.  The crew came in and did the job skillfully and without issue.  When they left, the only way that you knew they had been there was the missing limbs on the tree.  I would recommend them to anyone needing tree work and would not hesitate to call them again.

All good.  Very punctual.  Showed all possible vigilance to the safety of his crew.  Especially showed flexibility and openness to give us just what we wanted at this time.  Gave us good advice as to what our future needs might be.

They came the first day that they could before the snow flew. They were punctual and the kids were very nice and got it done quickly. I got the check in the mail and it was very easy.

We will definitely be working with Bob and Acme Tree Service again.  He was responsive, friendly, helpful, and the work was completed beautifully.  The crew did a great job cleaning up and watching out for our other plants.

We had a large branch fall on thee roof and land on the patio awning on Sunday afternoon. It was putting lots of stress on the awning and my wife... I left a message on Bob's phone to call me on Monday. He called me back on Sunday and came over right away to look it over. After getting one more bid I went with Acme. He was more expensive, but I like him and trusted his advice. He said it would be a week before all the work would be done. Much to my surprise the came early and did all the work on Weds the same week. It looks wonderful . Everything was clean and done better than I imagined it would be. Thanks Acme !

He came out within a couple days to give me an estimate and was out within four days to get the job done.  His price fell within my estimate.  It looks great.  They did an excellent job clearing the area and cleaning up before leaving.

Bob and his team were a pleasure to work with. Bob came out and gave an estimate for the work.  He was able to accommodate our schedule, due to a fence being installed at approximately the same time.  The four Forsythia bushes were so overgrown they were the size of a small bus. When the crew arrived, they were able to clean up as if they were never there. The neighbors tell us it is the best the tree has looked in years.

We were in the middle of adding a covered deck when we realized that our 15 yr old ash tree was going to be a problem. I called Bob to see if he could help. After talking to him we decided to go ahead and do the other two trees at the same time. Due to the time crunch with the construction, they came out the next day and did a wonderful job. As a result the construction was able to remain on schedule. We had never had our trees professionally trimmed so was not sure what to expect. I was very impressed with the job they did. I am not an easy person to please and I'm incredibly picky. I would strongly recommend them and I'm planning on using them again in the future. The price was very reasonable, they cleaned up everything and removed it from the property. VERY GREAT EXPERIENCE!

ACME did a fantastic job; the look of the trees is night and day. We had six bids for the work, ranging from $1200-$2400, and their bid was the second cheapest. The crew worked from 9-4:30 on the project. Based on other member reviews we expected ACME to do a great job and they did. The staff was friendly and professional. The crew cleaned up so well after all the trimming it didn't look like they were even here. We will hire them again in a few years for maintenance.

They were very careful with not dropping branches and damaging the lawn and planting underneath.  Material was carried out to the street for chipping without damaging anything.  Nice clean up.   The tree looks very nice.

Acme's crew was great.  They came, they sawed and they conquered! Bob said they'd be out that week and they were out on Monday.  Friendly crew.  Did just what I'd asked and worked with me in order to save some money on the removal.  I'd definitely call them again.

Impeccable clean-up. Glad we used him and plan to do so again in the fall. Reasonable cost, absolutely professional job. Took a couple of days to get back to us after initial contact, but worth the wait.

They did a super job. It was a pretty big tree that was close to the house and garage. When we came home you could hardly tell the tree was ever there. They did a terrific job cleaning up everything!

They completed the job over two days.  Since they showed up the first day around 4pm or so, they had to stop before the job was done (though they actually got the tree completely cut down, just not cut into smaller chunks and hauled out).  The second day they came back around 12:30 or so, and it took them until dark to finally finish.

They told me that when they came to do the estimate, they didn't realize how tight of a space there really was, and that the tree ended up being MUCH bigger than remembered.  It was a hard job getting the limbs to fall in the small amount of space available (we have a lot of fruit trees and garden in the back yard).  He said that the deal we got was WAY lower than it should have been in price, but they stuck to their estimate for the most part (I had remembered my top dollar amount as about $100 less than what they asked for).

I had volunteer tree in my back yard that needed to be removed. It was growing right on the fence line and was starting to grow into our power/cable/phone lines.  I called Acme, left a message and within an hour they returned my call. They showed up later that afternoon, we agreed on a price and they started taking it down that day. Since it was late in the afternoon, it got dark early and they had to stop, but they returned the next day to finish the job.  The owner was on site. He was courteous and responded to my questions.  I will use Acme again.

I'm extremely pleased with them.  Called on Monday  and they were there on Thursday.  They cleaned up everything and were done within just a few hours.  I will definitely use them again.
