Description of Work: The three Emerald Tree Service workers trimmed back and pruned several overgrown bushes and trees in our back yard. They did such a good job that, at first glance, one wouldn't even notice that work had been done. They hauled away all the trimmed materials and cleaned the street so well that not a wood chip was left behind.

Description of Work: They took out two diseased trees down to the stump, trimmed my laurel hedge on the sides and top, de-branched a cedar tree up 5 feet above power lines, trimmed two bushes under my windows, and trimmed branches off another tree in my front yard. | |The owner is an arborist and gave me great information about the trees and plants in my yard which helped me make good decisions about what to do. They were very efficient and left my property in great shape. They arrived when they said they would and provided quotes that were very reasonable. I would definitely use them again.

I had to call twice. The first time I called was the end of the week before Labor Day. They said they would come out the following week to do an estimate, but that did not happen. So I called the first of the following week and Brian, one of their estimators came out to take a look. He emailed the estimate to me.
Description of Work: I did not have Emerald Tree Service do the work. This was an estimate to cut down a columnar flowering cherry, and a flowering pear--both not exceptionally large trees. I felt that this was too much to charge for a small job. ($654)

The crew arrived on schedule, worked diligently and cleaned up very well after themselves. They were knowledgeable and careful not to damage any of our other plantings. A positive experience from our perspective.
Description of Work: Thin and crown clean three 70-foot poplars. Remove two 6-inch cherries and one 8-inch holly. Prune two birches and one plum tree. Remove all debris. Work was done on a tightly-planted city lot.

Mike, the owner was able to come out quickly and give me an estimate. Within 3 days he personally came out and ground up my stump, and the chipper came out later that same day. The work performed was excellent and the price was cheaper than other quotes I had recieved for the same work. I will not go anywhere else for my tree work.

The work was done well and in a timely manner. We hardly noticed that they were at the house; everything was cleaned up when we got home. Mike had previously come out to measure our gate to see if the stump grinder could make it though & told us he thought it wouldn't be a problem. However, when the person came a few days later to try to get it in, it was too narrow. They had to cut the stumps out by hand (or with a chainsaw?). I assumed that would be more expensive, but the total was less than the estimate ($475-$525).
Description of Work: We had 1 large overgrown lilac bush (probably covering 12'x20' of the yard) and another than had been cut back numerous times over the years to a large stump. Both were removed and they trimmed back another lilac closer to our deck.

I was very pleased with the efficient and friendly manner in which I was served. The cost was reasonable and the job was completed to my satisfaction. I would certainly recommend Emerald Tree Service.
Description of Work: Mike came out on the day I called and gave me an estimate for the job of cutting down the apple tree which had fallen. The very next day his crew cut the tree stump at the ground level, ground the wood up and cleared away the debris. All in a timely manner.

The estimator came out right away and gave me a price on the spot. They were able to schedule me in the next week. The day came and they very quickly and neatly took down all the trees, which were located in a small backyard and close to fences and outbuildings. Since I was having the area excavated anyway, I didn't have them grind the stumps or haul the wood away. They were non-invasive to the property and cleaned up chips and debris that flew over to my adjacent property. UPDATE: I've had Evergreen come out on two other occasions (in 2008 and 2009) after this initial visit to prune trees and have come to the conclusion that while they excel at taking trees down, they very much need direction for aesthetic pruning. You should be on hand to oversee the work if you hire them to do this kind of pruning. Also, they failed miserably when asked to transplant a young Arbutus 'Marina'. Arbutus is tricky to transplant anyway, but the transplantation job Evergreen did was awful. The root ball was extremely small and the tree wasn't secured into the shallow hole that was dug. Consequently the tree fell down with roots exposed, twice. They came out and tried to fix it but the tree died about a month later. Not recommended for transplantation.
Description of Work: Cut down four trees: a huge cedar, a large birch, a small holly and cypress.

I was very pleased with the work. Owner and crew were competent.
Description of Work: Removed a large tree limb from my room from the December storm. The limb was resting on the tree over a fence. Careful removal was required as it did not fall on the fence. Also removed all debris. A lot of rope work was required to hold up the limb (10 inches in diameter where it broke).

Fully removed a deeply established apple tree that was dropping hundreds of apples in our and our neighbors' yards. Ground down the stump and removed all large pieces. They did a great job and did not damage the nearby fences. The holly bush was also trimmed significantly and looks great.

The estimated price was $420. It was done within a few days of the estimate. Everyone was polite. They cleaned up adequately. The job took about an hour, at most, and required three people plus equipment.

Mike and his team were great. They did a very professional job. There was one bad thing. We agreed to a $400 price on the phone, but when I got the bill, it was $450. I talked to them on the phone, but they wouldn't change the price back. Get everything in writing!

THE PRICE WAS REASONABLE, ESPECIALLY FOR THE BIG TREE THAT THEY TOOK OUT, IT WAS INLINE WITH WHAT EVERYONE ELSE WAS CHARGING. WE WERE PLEASANTLY SURPRISED WITH THE PRICE FOR THE FRONT TREES. THEY WERE VERY PROFESSIONAL AND DID OUTSTANDING WORK. THEY CLEANED UP AFTER THEY LEFT.
