Bert's Tree Service

Tree Service, Tree Stump Removal, Tree Trimming,

About us

Berts Tree Service was started in 2004 with a chainsaw and a pickup truck; trying to gather up enough firewood to heat our house in order to save some money on the gas bill. Since then, Berts Tree Service has evolved into a full-time tree service with all of the equipment needed to professionally handle the toughest jobs. Although Berts Tree Service is a young company, we aim to please. We are building our reputation not relying on it. There is no job too big or too small for Berts Tree Service. Specializing in large tree removals, we have multiple ways to get the job done involving aerial crane and bucket truck work, or an experienced climber for tight spots. Our chip truck can hold up to 20 yards of wood chips and our chipper can handle up to a 15" thick log all the way down to the smallest of backyard shrub removals. The stump grinder we use fits through a standard 36" wide fence gate. Our diesel powered stump grinder is powerful enough to grind the biggest of stumps yet light enough to dive on any lawn and not make ruts. ****Stump grinding can be hauled away for an additional fee**** We also have seasoned firewood cut, split and ready to burn. This is available through being picked up at our yard, or for a small fee we can deliver the wood right to your home. Additional DBA - Bert's Tree Service & Stump Grinding. Cost is determined by the job.

Bert's called ahead and set up an appointment. They showed up on time and were polite. They did the work as discussed and cleaned up afterwards. They did a great job and their price was reasonable.

Bert’s tree service was recommended by me neighbor afte I had gone through countless other companies just trying to get quotes. Dan got back to me, came out and gave me a very reasonable quote. He was also nice to take a little extra time to answer any questions I had. Once the date was set, the crew was on time and extremely efficient. Overall very happy with the service. Now that can I and an established relationship and they did good work I plan to continue to use them for more tree services moving forward (my yard is mostly trees). I would also recommend this company to friends and family. The one thing I’ve leanred is this industry (this is not specific to only Bert’s) doesn’t seem to be great or quick on communication. I will say Dan did a much better job than other companies but this is the one area where improvements could be made. Again not horrible but could be a little better. I guess you just have to be patience overall.

Originally I had a problem with them returning my calls to set up a work date after the proposal was accepted. After I noted this in an Angie's List review, I was contacted and a time period was agreed upon. Work completed as stated. I was happy with the quality of work and they cleaned up after job. They had a problem, but corrected it. I would recommend again.

Dan and his crew were on time and very professional and careful. The project went as planned and we received excellent service. We would and will trust this crew for any future tree removal or trimming.

It went well. He came in, took it out, and grinded the stump.

Dan and his 6-man crew arrived promptly at 8:30 AM on Thursday, 5/14/15.  Using a crane, wood chipper, and other equipment, they systematically removed a very large oak tree that was on the front of my property.  The guys were a great team who worked very well together.  There was no down time for them, and they worked hard the entire time they were at my house, cleaning up debris as they went along.  They left for the day at 5:30 PM, after putting in nine hours of work.  Before they left, all existing debris was cleaned up, and Dan said they'd be back mid-morning the next day to grind down the stump.  He told me that they would grind down six-eight inches, but refill the hole with dirt and sawdust up to about two inches from the top.  That way, I'd probably only need one pickup truck load of topsoil to fill the hole and make the area level with the rest of the yard.  They arrived the next morning at 9:30 AM and did just that.  Again, the crew worked diligently the entire time they were there, and completed the job at 1:30 PM.  Even with all their heavy equipment, they left no ruts or divots in my yard.  I'll probably contact them again soon to trim a large maple tree in my back yard.  I would highly recommend Bert's Tree Service's exceptional service.

I initially contacted this company for an estimate on the removal of two large dead ash trees from my front yard. I called and left a message, and Dan called back the next day and we had the estimate the day after that. I requested an itemized estimate (we weren't sure we needed the stumps ground out), and he provided exactly what we requested. I called back a few days later with a couple of questions, and again he called back promptly and answered all of my questions, and I accepted his estimate on the spot. He let me know that they were scheduling about two weeks out, and he would be calling back then to set a firm date.
One week later Dan called me and let me know that he had had a cancellation and could come out the next day. A crew of about five guys showed up right on time that morning (a bit early, even) and immediately started planning for exactly how to proceed. The removal itself went great - they were completely finished with both trees in about three hours. They laid down plates for the trucks in the yard so as to not damage the ground. They had no problem dealing with the various power/cable/phone lines near the trees. They kept the noise level down as much as they could, turning off their machinery whenever they weren't actively using it. They cleaned up fully after themselves - except for the absence of the trees, I never would have known they were there.
Dan was also very accommodating in arranging for payment. Since I was at work at the time they finished up, Dan came back to my house after I got home from work to settle up. Overall, an excellent, professional job.

This company is terrific. Dan provided a quote for the removal of the Honey Locust trees and within a week his crew arrived to take the trees down. Before the crew began their work, I inquired whether the crew could include a Maple tree and they informed me to contact Dan. I called Dan and he came by and quoted a price and indicated the crew probably couldn't get all three trees down the same day but they could come back the following day to finish the job, which was fine.

The crew worked all day and had both Honey Locust trees down and all the branches and debris cleared. The crew returned the following day and removed the Maple tree, which came down super fast. The crew brought a crane which lifted the trunk onto the bed of a truck and the Maple was hauled away. They weren't able to do this with the Honey Locust trees because they were located too close to each other.

Once the Maple was down, the stumps for all the trees were ground out. I was really impressed with how the stumps were being ground out. Mike didn't just grind where the stumps were located, he followed the main roots of each tree and ground the roots as well. Very impressive.

We also needed a tree stumped removed from a tree that was taken down by another tree service last year. I won't name that tree service but they were supposed to come back and remove the stump and they didn't. Bert's Tree Service removed that stump for us.

Once all the stumps were removed, the crew cleaned up the chips and the grindings and leveled the ground where all the stumps were located. All in all, we cannot praise Bert's Tree Service enough for the work performed. We certainly would use them again. Dan and his crew are great, professional and very good and what they do!

they worked hard and laid down plates so that the lawn didn't get torn up (lawn was very soft from all the rain). they cleaned up all the mess. no damage to the lawn despite soft soil from the rain. stump grinding was deep to remove roots.

The 2 men that came and trimmed the tree did a wonderful job!. The tree they trimmed is approximately 80-100 feet tall and had never been professionally trimmed. It had a lot of dead branches and was not very attractive. When they were done trimming the tree it looked beautiful! The young men who did the work were very friendly and professional. They seemed to take a lot of pride in their work which was very refreshing. The one young man commented that it was a lot of hard work but that he enjoyed making trees healthier and more attractive. They did an excellent and very thorough job cleaning up the yard when they were done. I would happily recommend Bert's Tree Service to anyone who needs quality work done at a reasonable price.

Bert's Tree Service was great. Their estimate arrived promptly and was about $1000 cheaper than the other estimate we got. It rained a great deal so their schedule was delayed, but they kept us informed. The work was done efficiently and they cleaned up well, including raking the gravel driveway afterwards.

My experience overall went well. I was a little disappointed with how much work they did on the main tree I wanted trimmed. Other than that they did a great job. The staff was friendly and professional. They did excellently with the cleanup afterwards.

When the storm knock down a large branch I called Berts Tree service I found on Angie's list. Even though it was thundering, lighting and storming hard the owner Dan came out to give me an estimate on the branch removal. I was so impressed that he came out that night that I asked him to go ahead and put me on the schedule for both trees to be removed. I can tell you I hit the jackpot with this company. They showed up when they said they would. He had a crew of 5 men that were friendly, professional and extremely hard working. I could not believe they worked straight through the day taking only a few very short brakes. As they cut down the tree they were cleaning it up just as fast. Even the chipper guy got all of the roots up that were above the ground. I have hired them to come back out and trim up a large tree in my front yard as well. I cannot say enough about Dan the owner and his employee's. They were fabulous and for the first time I feel I got more for my money!

I had someone else remove the tree and was very unhappy. Bert's came in promptly and finished the job. They also helped me find a new tree.I have recommended them to several friends.

Because of the wet condition of the yard this particular job had to be very difficult, yet the work was completed quickly, thoroughly and in a very professional manner. The workers were very pleasant as well as the foreman. The service was above and beyond what was promised.

Next time I need this service I have no need to shop - I will just call Bert's -- great job!
