MR COELHO AGREED to make it right and come out an plant a tree to replace the two he was not to remove. When we did not hear back from him..i called...it appeared he had no intention to "MAKE IT RIGHT"..HE ALSO SPOKE DOWN TO ME and would not let me talk..when he was done explaining my husband's miss-understand and I finally got a chase to say something. The call was ended --on MR COELHO END. I did call back and asked him to explain where the top of my pine tree is...the damage to the smaller tree and where the stumps to my trees he suggusted he leave for decorated pottery.
I asked him to save the wood pieces that had to be chopped, but some of them were 18 inches in diameter and could not be chopped, so what are you going to do? They did a good job and cleared everything out. You take the tree out, you take the tree out. That was one thing I remember calling them back because there was a pile and we did not know what to do with it; I couldn't even chop it. It was just way oversized. Some of them turned out to be 24 or 30 inches. Then I had to pay somebody to haul it away. His price was fine, but even though I spelled it out sometimes people do not do what I want them to do, they do what they want to do. We had gone to the length of talking about how many inches we are cutting them, maybe it is not being communicated all the way down. Ultimately that is not my problem. His price was fair. It is a lot of work and they worked hard. They definitely worked for the money. They weren't very neat. He was fine with responsiveness.
"Sorry. We dont work California. only in the state of rhode island . Wrong company !"
I was very satisfied, this is second time I hired Ken & I would hire them again.
"Hello [Member name removed]. Don't know the reason for a C rating ? Job was completed to job requests. Even did your 2 neighbors around you after your job was completed. Thank you for your time an destription on Angie's list . Ken / Tree Doctor"
Ken called me back within a day of my call and came out to the house to give me a bid right away. He was personable and gave me some good advice about our backyard. His bid was a little less than the other business who came out and gave me an estimate. He told me they would be back in about two weeks, and then only a week later he called to say that they could come out and take care of the yard. Four or five guys came out with two big trucks and a lot of equipment and removed all the trees and shrubs very quickly. They were friendly and efficient. In the end there was just one person left grinding the stumps. He knocked on the door to ask me if a stump in the yard was included in the bid because he couldn't tell. I told him that I didn't think so, but that I wish it was. In the end he ground it down even though it would have been extra. He was nice.
I would definitely call them again and recommend them to anyone who asked.
One of them had this humongous truck with a crane basket, that they positioned on my driveway. The tree was about 40+ ft tall (my guess).
One person cut it down in section while the other two picked up the pieces. I had some other close trees and air conditioning unit and none of that was affected. The entire operation including cleaning up the sawdust was less than 2 hours.
A crew of 5 worked about 5 hours using a bucket on the higher Birch, Maple and Oak. They cut the Hemlocks and Cherry in sections. The remainder were hand pruned by climbing and using a pole saw as they were not accessible by the truck.
They did an exceptional job, not only taking out the limbs we had agreed to, but clearing the deadwood in the trees, and making additional cuts where it was necessary for the tree shape. They even talked me out of taking a few limbs down, thankfully as it would have spoiled the appearance of the tree.
The crew cleaned the site as they went, filled up two chipper trucks, and raked the grounds when done.
I chose the Tree Doctor because of their rating on this site and could not be more pleased with their work and professionalism. Every member of the crew appeared to be well trained and knowledgeable. Their price was well below what my neighbor paid for 1/3 the work earlier in the year.
Since it was a large branch and it hung over my neighbors back yard, it was preferable to drop it there, However, tree limbs blocked the truck's access, so he provided me with a separate quote for my neighbor to have these trimmed. They were hitting his house and required removal, do it was very appropriate. The price of this removal is included in the $500.
On the original project, we also agreed that they would trim out any of the other deadwood in this large tree with the hanging branch.
The Tree Doctor spent a significant amount of time instructing me on how to save a number other trees which I have concerns about. It turns out they have a disease that will react well to spring fertilization so he went into great detail instructing me on how and when to fertilize so the trees wouldn't die. Probably not good for drumming up new business but GREATLY APPRECIATED by a homeowner wanting to save the shade!
When the day arrived, the crew was prompt, very courteous, and professional. They moved the trucks into position and went right to work. They went out of their way to make sure that I was satisfied with the work, performing little extras like trimming some of the lower branches of the surrounding trees and getting down a hanging branch from another with a pole saw and (I think) 4 or 5 extensions. They were really great and I would recommend them to anyone without reservation
On the day of the appointment they showed up with at least 4 trucks and a whole crew of guys. I'd arranged for them to use my neighbor's driveway to access one tree, and they brought their truck across the lawn to access the second one. They finished in a few hours and I was left with a clean yard(raked), two stumps(I'd declined stump grinding) and a pile of wood. They even took the wood from the dead tree with them after discovering it wasn't suitable for firewood. My neighbors driveway was swept clean and my yard looked none the worse for wear.
I was very impressed with their service and would use them again if need be. They even made an effort to cut the stump from the tree by the garage as far back as possible despite it being intertwined with the garage wall & a chain link fence.
