approximately 1.5 hours trimming the trees and cleaning up the debris. Workers were very cooperative when
responding to owner's additional requests for trimming specific limbs. Job was completed satisfactorily, and
the crew left after thoroughly cleaning the debris site.
Quotes ranged from $250 to $400.
Owner came out and gave me a verbal quote: $250 for the work noted above.
A couple of weeks later when the crew arrived, and i went over the requirements, he said he could not do the job for that price, but it would be $500.
Now i am in a bind. I had done some trimming myself and left the branches/clipping in the yard for thie crew to haul away -- that was part of the "clean up" and they had no problem with that. I could not tell them to "forget it", like i wanted to and leave all that debris in my yard until i could get another firm out here to do the work.
So i agreed to the new higher (double price). UGH
The good news is that they honored the Angie List 10% discount for jobs of $500.
To their credit, they did quick work-- they had a crew of 5 and then another truck showed up with about 5 more men.
The down side for the quick work was that it was a bit sloppy as well. I had expected care and thought would be put into each trim -- but in hindsight that was not a realistic expectation for $250 or even $500. Some ot the trmming of the pear resulted in damaged bark because of overcut, or a faliure to undercut first so that the branch tore some bark away as it was falling down.
Make no mistake about it. These guys are day laborers with sharp, very sharp tools.
They were able to do the work the day after I called to accept their quote. The crew arrived that morning at 8 and were completed before I got back from lunch at 2. They did everything asked and left the yard cleaned up better than expected. There's nothing more or different they could have done. I am very happy and their price was considerably less than the other two.
