So I called for them to do the job without a quote as I felt their prices were always reasonable and proper. The team showed up on time with all the needed equipment. The team leader (not Marshall, the owner) reviewed the work and presented a reasonable quote. Work began immediately.
They expertly took down the trees one by one. I was impressed with their communication and safety protocols with a very dangerous task. They also took great care to minimize damage to our yard from falling trees and limbs.
At the end of the job, they completely raked, cleaned and restored our yard from their efforts.
Another job that will keep me coming back to Charleston Tree Experts.
Since I had Marshall in charge of all of my other jobs, I was concerned that he was not here for pricing, leadership and direction of the crew. My fears were mistaken. This crew worked according to Marshall's high standards.
There are other tree removal companies out there. But, as the old expression says, you get what you pay for. Charleston Tree Experts deliver quality work at reasonable prices.
My money has always been well spent with Marshall and Charleston Tree Experts.
I got three quotes for this service and was shocked by the wide difference in the quotes. One was over 3 times the price quoted by Amy of Charleston Tree Experts! Amy provided the initial quote on Oct 1. She was very prompt, professional and detailed exactly what the crew would do when they arrived. She noticed a limb from my live oak was hanging very close to my roof and offered to trim it back for free, if I agreed to hire them to cut down both trees. She explained the crews normally arrive early the morning, to avoid the hotter part of the day..
I called Amy back the next day to confirm, and we set a date of Oct 26 for the crew to remove the trees. They arrived around 12:30PM (I was expecting them in the morning, based on previous comments), and confirmed with me what the job entailed. We discussed how far back to cut the limb on the live oak, and they were very accommodating with my request to trim back only what was necessary to eliminate the branches touching the roof.
Then the crew began the work on the 2 trees. They were both cut down, and the site was cleaned up very quickly. I did not check the time, but I would guess it was less than 2 hours.
They had previously explained to me that they contracted a third party to grind the stumps, and he would arrive either later today or tomorrow. He arrived shortly after they left, and he also did a great job; he was quick and efficient, and left the site very clean.
I was very pleased with this entire process; and because I found them on Angie's List, I saved 10% of the total cost of $1250.
Once we got ARB approval for the removal of the trees, we were on their schedule in less than two weeks. On the scheduled day, the CTE team showed up promptly, were very polite, and we did a walkthrough prior to starting any work. The team kept me updated continuously throughout the day on their progress and we did a final walkthrough after all work/cleanup was complete. I have contracted with many tree companies in the Charleston area, and these guys are heads and shoulders above all of them, and a great price too.
I would recommend CTE to my friends and neighbors.
A branch broke a irrigation line I didn't know about for a couple of weeks and when I called Marshall for some additional work several months later I mentioned that it happened and we would have to mark the lines next time - he immediately offered to repair or pay for it.
Marshall and his crew is always friendly.
What more could you ask.
"Thanks (removed member name)! Its always a pleasure working for you!!!"
