He stopped by without telling us that he did to give us a price. He then never called with the price until he finally called me back after two calls. He was supposed to send me the quote and put me on his schedule. He never sent the quote and i never heard back from him again. I called several times and the last time asked if he wanted to the do the work, just call me back. He never did. How do businesses like this stay in business?

Had Paul come out to my property to remove a rather large oak tree, that was too close to another tree, and another smaller tree. He had also pruned some trees and grinded two stumps and some old roots. I was very pleased with this tree service - they even did some tree trimming near the electrical wires to the house, at no additional cost. His workers were very friendly, highly skilled and cleaned up well. Would use Paul again in the future.
Description of Work: I had Paul cut down town two trees, trim up existing trees and grind a couple stumps.

Description of Work: Two trees came down in the ice storm at a house we were selling. We needed them taken care of by the end of February. Paul Howland was the only tree company that got back to me within a reasonable amount of time. He fit the work in, before our deadline, at the price agreed upon. I would definitely use them again.

Response from Paul Howland Tree Care
We make a great effort to return all phone calls in a timely fashion. I'm not sure why that was not the case with your inquiry about stump grinding. We apologize for any inconvienance this may have caused you and if you give an opportunity for your future tree care needs I promise you we will do much better.

I called to get a load of firewood and Paul brought a cord of wood in less than an hour from the call! It's all good stuff and is seasoned well. I will do business with Paul again in the future! Thank you.

They were terrific! Paul did some work for my neighbor so I left him a message to say we were interested. He called back right away and made an appointment to come by at my convenience. We walked the property and he was very knowledgeable about the trees, their condition and what did and did not need to be done. Handed my a proposal right on the spot and the work was completed within a week. Other than the fact that the trees were trimmed and cleaned up beautifully I couldn't even tell they were there. Not a branch or bit of sawdust was left behind. Definitely will be calling them again!

Paul did some work for my neighbor and they received a great recommendation. I left a message and Paul called back same day and we scheduled time for him to come out to our house. We walked the property and he was very knowledgeable about all the trees and made great suggestions about what to do and what not to do. He called to let me know the day before when they would be coming out. I was at work that day and other than the fact the trees looked great, I couldn't even tell they had been there. Seriously! Not a branch or wood chip to be seen. Price seemed very reasonable for the quality and professionalism.

Paul Howland tree service did an excellent job. The work was completed at the price quoted and the tree crew arrived at the scheduled time. The tree person crew had the correct expertise and equipment to properly complete the job in a timely manner. Upon completion all debris was removed and the area was left clean. They deserve the highest ratings for professionalism. I most strongly recommend Paul Howland Tree Care and I plan to use them again in the future when needed for trimming and other tree care. In 2012 I had used this firm for trimming several large trees.
Description of Work: Paul Howland tree care removed two large Norway Spruce and one small norway spruce, as well removed three additional tree stumps from trees. The area was left clean.

We were provided with a prompt estimate on the day we called and the work was scheduled for 2 days later. The job went smoothly from start to finish at the estimated cost. The estimate was equal to or less than others we received. The tree stumps were ground and at our request a pile of mulch from the ground branches was left to use under our swingset. We would definitely use them again in the future.
Description of Work: Removed approximately 12 trees from back yard, ground stumps, removed debris

Outstanding. The work was superb and exceeded my expectations. Initially I saw the tree crew working at a neighbor and asked to take a look at my property . The individual reviewed my property and provided a quotation and suggested I call Paul Howland if I wanted to schedule the job. I called and arranged to have the work performed. The tree crew arrived as scheduled and completed the work in a very professional manner . They truly did an excellent job and actually trimmed more trees han expected. When they departed the area was completely cleaned up and the trees looked great -- much better than I expected.
Description of Work: Trim several trees including Maple, Bradford Pear and large Holly trees, and clean-up. .

We planted 3 sweet gum trees in our front yard 35 yrs. ago, not knowing that they would produce an overabundance amount of fruit (that hurt when stepped on or fling in the air when mowed), The roots got into the sewer at the street level, with the backup at the vent on the front lawn.It took the boro days to get the roots out of the main pipes to the street and also to our vent on the front lawn. We finally decided time was right( 4 yrs. later) to have them removed as the sidewalk (cement) is rising from the root system,and we did not want to have another "backup".Paul Howland and crew gave a reasonable estimate for the work and did a good job. We still have many feeder roots throughout the front lawn even though they did alot of grinding of the stumps.He said to call him if more roots should be removed. Area was clean of any limbs, just the stump material which will be removed by a landscaper who will bring in dirt for planting grass. Very expensive Sweet Gum trees!
Description of Work: Given an estimate for removal of 3 lrg trees and 2 small trees; all with grinding roots and stumps. Within one week, job completed in one day. Have had work done in the past by Paul with great satisfaction. Price is right with experience on each job.note:large trees were mature sweet gum trees with their fruit attached! Quite a job well done.
