Excellent service. The pruning of the 2nd oak tree and the Hawthorne tree was done one day, and all other work done the next day. The 4-person crew was very professional, kind, and respectful of the property. The large oak I had removed was right up against a new fence, and not far from the side of my house. And, it was not in an area to get a bucket truck nearby. They arrived right on time at the start of the day and worked hard with minimal breaks - very impressive. They ground the stump from the large oak as well as grinding a couple of leftover stumps from previously removed holly trees. Their cleanup was superb! They even blew stuff off the top of my roof! And the wood cut down was nicely rolled together - not just dumped into a large messy clump! And, they were cheaper than another bid I got from a company here on Angie. I cannot recommend them high enough.

Daryl came by within 24 hours of reaching out to evaluate a few large trees on our property. His consultation was detailed and thorough, and while we didn't need any additional service at this time, we'll definitely reach out to Daryl for anything we need in the future.

The crew was on time, and removed approximately 90' of overgrown arborvitae and 1 large overgrown roto, then ground the stumps. They were well equipped for the job, professional, and finished the job in less than 4 hours. The price was competitive with the other bibs we had, but we felt we really got real value for the work that was done. I was very pleasantly surprised they were better than the national services. I would use them again in a heartbeat.

Very pleased with the services provided. We contacted and received bids from a couple tree trimming service companies. We are glad we went with North Woods. The service was scheduled and delivered as planned. The staff was knowledgeable, efficient and courteous. Clean up was thorough. Great job!

This tree was not only tall, but also very wide. It was rotting and due to its close vicinity to lots of buildings, removal needed to be done carefully. Daryl North and his crew did a fantastic job, ensuring that no property or vehicles were damaged in the process. The yard was too small to bring any large equipment back there, so they had to take small pieces of the tree down one piece at a time due to its enormous size by actually climbing the tree, but were able to take the entire tree down in one day with complete safety in mind. They came back a second day to grind the huge stump and hauled away the debris and left the yard so clean, that I could hardly believe that the 100-year-old tree had ever been there! I have the highest respect for Daryl and his crew for making this dangerous job look like a piece of cake. They were professional, polite, and very friendly and kept me informed every step of the way. All of this was done for an incredibly reasonable price. Also, since the city required me to plant a new tree to replace the one I removed, Daryl referred me to someone who helped me purchase and plant a lovely replacement. I highly recommend North Woods Tree Service if you want the job done right!

Darryl sent a good crew and his price was reasonable. He needs to work on communicating with his clients but otherwise we were satisfied. $600.00, original tasks $800.00, removal of leaning maple (behind shed) $350.00, "tree" cluster -$87.50, Senior Discount $ 49.88, 3% charge card surcharge $1712.38, Total

Service did not respond to my request for a quote via Angie's List, nor to my follow up phone call.
Response from North Woods Tree Service
"So sorry [Member Name Removed], We did not intentionally miss you. We have taken on a new estimator who also does certified reports. He will be a great asset to the team. Unfortunately, you are the first to let us know we failed in responding to requests. Normally I handle all calls and requests. Now I hand some to him directly to avoid duplicating contact. We figured out that he has to put a system on his end to make sure all leads are contacted. Again, sorry you had to experience this. We are implementing new procedures with our new help to help keep this from happening in the future. Thank you for letting us know. Sincerely, Daryl"

He called me at 8:30am the first morning after I selected whom I would pursue. He came that evening, looked over my project and set up a work date for the next week. He followed up calls to firm up our next meeting. He came promptly and did the work very professionally. I was very impressed with his expertise and advice. I will definitely use this company again and hope to have Roger Cassady doing the work

It was a great engagement from the start with Darryl offering the best price compared to 3 other bidders. I had used him before and knew he did great work. He was able to provide a quote by just seeing a few pictures. The tree was within an inch of the house and he was able to remove it without damage to the house or the neighbors. What really exceeded my expectations was how clean the area was after he finished. The area around the tree was cleaner than before he came as was the area where I had pre-cut limbs I wanted chipped and hauled.

I contacted Northwoods to trim three Douglas fir trees approximately 75 feet tall in my SW Portland home. They were not able to do the job when they initially said because of an equipment failure but they followed through and did an excellent job trimming and clearing the deadwood from the trees. I was very happy with the job they did and with the clean up so I will definitely call them first when I have more work.

We had a very large branch come down from a tree next to our house and needed someone to dispose of it as well as do some work on the tree itself so no new branches would come down. Ultimately they had to tip a lot of branches (shorten them so that the weight didn't drag the branch down) and shorten the center top of the tree. It required a bucket to get up into the tree. Additionally they did a stump grind on two other former trees, and did some major pruning on a tree that was hanging over a neighbor's house.

It took a while to get the job done. It was considered a small job, and the owner did tell me he would prefer to put it together with another job in the area. He expected about 4 weeks in the future but it turned in to about 12 weeks. I'm OK with this as we were not in a hurry. But it was a longer time than expected. My wife was not thrilled with this delay but she is happy with the work. Quote, written on the back of a business card, was honored. Owner and his crew worked very quickly and cleaned up very well.
Response from North Woods Tree Service
"Thank you for the review. We do stump grinding. Our grinder could not access these stumps. :D"

I called Daryl and he came immediately, reviewed what we needed - which was less than what another company was pushing - and then he sent a detailed proposal. We scheduled the work and he came on time when he said he would, the team were professional and safe and they got the work done on time. They were affordable. I'd sure use them again.

It took awhile to find three tree services to even answer their phones or give bids. North Woods was expensive, but I was impressed with the description of how they would do the pruning. Specifically the plan of which branches would be removed. The tree looks very nice. I could only afford to have one tree pruned. The owner called me several times during this process of setting up the appointment and actually doing the work. Very good communication!

Daryl is very patient and kind. I can see why other reviews speak highly of him. He took his time and answered all my questions in detail. His bid was the best among 8 companies. I couldn't make a decision between his and another company. He recommended that I go with another company which offered to repair damages to sprinklers if damaged because his company is not equipped to do so. I will definitely recommend him to all my friends.

Daryl's company, North Woods, was highly rated, so we received a bid from him. His bid was less expensive than the others we received, and he was very knowledgeable. His crew came out and very efficiently did all of our work in about six hours, and they cleaned up our yard perfectly. They certainly handled our job in a very professional manner, and we're really pleased with the outcome. We have a lot of trees and will definitely call North Woods again when we need more work done!
