"We understand this member's disappointment with having to wait for an estimate. The February ice storm caused more damage in our region than almost any storm we've experienced in 40 years of business. With such extreme tree damage, we have been overwhelmed with calls. As a result, we have longer than usual waits for estimates and tree care. We are sorry that we were unable to provide service within the timeframe this member required."
It was about 1400 to remove one tree. When he came to give the quote he didn't want to talk about the other trees, and I got a sense that they weren't trying to give anything, including information, for free. It took a while for the guy to come out as well.
The only complaint would be the secretary when it's time to pay the bill. She had a bit of an attitude. It would helped if she showed some empathy to her customers instead to treating them like idiots. Having said that, the workers were awesome, exactly what you would expect from A+ workers. So as long as you can deal with the snarky front office receptionist and a moderate to high price, your fine.
We waited a total of 4 weeks from estimate to the job being completed - which seems like a long time, but really wasn't, because, as we were wisely told, it was best to wait until all the snow had melted and the ground had dried out some. That way they could do a more complete cleanup and no branch segments would be left frozen into the turf. They called us a night ahead so that we could be home if we wanted (we requested this) and they picked the perfect day to come out, where the ground was not too soggy and just before several days of rain were expected. We were very happy with this scheduling.
A crew of 3 showed up exactly on time, the crew leader introduced everyone, and discussed concerns I had. They were polite, professional, and willing to remove the branches taking the "long route" on our property to prevent any erosion that might cause us surface water problems later. They laid down ground mats from our back yard all the way to the street where their chipper machinery and trucks were so that the turf on our yard would be minimally disturbed. The Rose of Sharon trimming that we asked for on the spot, they were fine with adding to the job for a very reasonable extra amount. The crew was always polite when I went out several times to check on their progress and add my thoughts or ask questions.
The job took over 6 hours to complete. They did a good throughout and a good job of cleaning up. Although I think this company may run a little higher than some cost-wise, they come with all the right equipment and manpower to do an efficient job. They're a nice and reliable company to do business with. We've used them several times before.
