Outstanding From scheduling an estimate to the work being completed, everyone I spoke to was very helpful and professional. Highly recommend and I would use again. I gave a B on price, because this kind of work is expensive and not because they were higher than other quotes. Frankly two other quotes i received were significantly higher.

The removal of the tree went very well, and these guys were able to accommodate me on a short time frame (they had a gap in their schedule). However, the next day, it was discovered that a window close to where the tree had been removed was broken. The house was empty while the work was being done, as it was being prepared for sale, so there were no witnesses to exactly how it was broken, and Canzler maintained that they had no knowledge of what happened. However, the tree removal company was the ONLY contractor onsite at that time, the window was very obviously broken from outside, and photos taken two days prior (see photo of entire house, window directly to the left of the sliding doors, in the approximate center of the photo) showed an unbroken window. I leave it to the reader to decide.

The guy showed up with 3 young fellows, and in an hour and 15 minutes they shredded my huge tree into a beautiful pile of chips. The young fellows were running !not walking) uphill with the branches to feed the chipper. Cranzler seems to run a tight and disciplined ship. Spot on time too in every phone call and visit. Not cheap, but the cheap outfit never showed up, so I’m happy to put my money toward a good, family-owned business.

So pleased with this tree service company and would highly recommend them. They came out just a few days after I called them. The bid was within what we estimated so we hired them on the spot. Our job was moved up on their schedule because the tree was so damaged and definitely posed a risk to the surrounding structures. They arrived exactly on time and finished exactly on time. Clean up was done exceptionally well and included removing everything left by the branches as they were drug to the chipper that was located some distance away on the street. They also took care of all the fir needles and pine cones that fell through out the yard and swept the street of all debris too. They cut the trunk into sections that could be split into fire wood and neatly rolled them all to one side of the yard. Their work and professionalism actually exceeded expectations so they definitely made us happy customers.

I am very, very pleased. Not only did we use them, but we took them on a recommendation of the neighbors who live above us who also had tree service then. The man above us, that particular person had used them twice. One time when their truck was parked below the property, our property goes street by street down the hillside, not our houses are side by side. Anyway, I spoke with one of their representatives who gave me his card. So, I was familiar with the truck, I had seen it before, I?ve seen the people working. So, because I knew that they would be finished in one day or less perhaps, then I wanted their service. 

They had a huge chipper and there were three people. They were so efficient and did a fabulous and I am very, very happy. Dan and his brother Tony, own the company.  Dan came and worked with two excellent assistants and they did an excellent job. They had their blower to not leave anything that I had to do, as far as the property needs and the job being done. So, I am very pleased. It was quoted to us for what they had done for $1,400, and then with tax it came to $1541.40. They came the 18th, 2 days ago and there were three people. They came at 8:30 and they left about about 2:30. 

Their price was very reasonable. He had someone else do our trees for many, many years and the man has gotten older, in his 50?s. The man would take such a long time, like maybe a week and a half to do what they did in one day. I am very pleased that we had such good service. That is what I noticed with what we paid our previous tree pruner person, was just about the exact same as far as the $1,400 goes and then of course there is tax. I would recommend them.

Great job! On time for the estimate where they offered full services to remove the tree. Scheduled the removal well in advance and called to confirm before the actual date. On the big day they showed up on time, confirmed the work and took the tree down between two houses effortlessly and safely. They knocked on neighbor doors as needed to move cars and let them know of the work. A very good team that was done in a little over 2 hours. Except for the whole no one would know a tree or cutting ever occurred, they removed all remnants and completely cleaned the entire street. Thanks!

I contacted this company along with two other companies to give me a bid on topping/trimming a combination of approximately 6 fir and cedar trees and the removal of an Alder tree that had grown up between the evergreens. The tree  toppings were needed to satisfy an neighbor's complaint that our trees were blocking their view of MT Rainier.  We also asked that the trees be trimmed of overhanging  branches that were hanging over onto the neighboring homes on each side of our property.  Because of the slope of our back yard I wanted to have the topping follow the line of the hill.  We chose Canzler from the 3 companies that came out to view the project and give us a bid because Tony was very professional in what he said he would do and seemed to understand what I meant by graduating the height of the trees as they went down the hill and said he would take off 6-8 ft.. The second company came in with an identical bid and said they would put stump killer on the Alder stump.  The third company 's bid was several hundred dollars higher and they also said they would put stump killer on the Alder stump. Tony told us they were booked ahead 2-3 weeks and we said we would wait.  A couple of days later I was called and told they could come out that week on a Friday sometime in afternoon after they finished a morning job nearby but could not give me an exact time.  I am a 78 year old female who still works full time in order to maintain our living expenses.  My husband is home during the day but leaves house and yard decisions up to me as to what is done.  When I came home from work at 6 PM on Friday I found the crew had been there and left when they finished.  Apparently because I wasn't there when they left and my husband could not confirm if we were happy with the job until I had a chance to look at it  they left.  Because of the slope steepness neither my husband or myself can navigate the backyard hill by ourselves.  My main concern when I got home and stood out on the deck was not enough topping had been done on the trees on the uphill side and still needed several more feet removed.  On the following Monday I called and left a voicemail that I needed to speak with Tony about the job.  I did not receive a call back, several days later on Thursday I again called and spoke with his Dad and was told he had left Tony a message to call me and that he would leave another message .  I did recive a call back that evening and him my concerns and was told that I should have been home when they were there because it would cost him  several hundred more dollars to bring a crew back out and he told me he removed way more on the trees than what was contracted for and I should be happy.  If I had know ahead of time that I was supposed to have been there I could have arranged to take some time off work to be there.  I'm not willing to pay more money to get this done and will send him his check for the $985 but I am very disappointed in the customer service response and feel as a senior citizen I was taken advantage of. I asked about stump killer for the Alder tree that was removed and was told I could go to the hardware store and buy that myself!  Unfortunately I hadn't asked for the stump killer to be included in the bid because the other two companies  automatically included it in their bids as part of their service and I assumed wrong that it would be done by this crew automatically. The clean up work was done well and there was  no damage to surrounding plantings.

Canzler Tree Service is excellent.  The company is very efficient and professional with good phone communication regarding setting up times for a bid and for doing the work.  The crew shows up on time.  They are amazingly fast, but yet thorough.  They did all I had asked for plus offered to take out two additional bushes but without any increase in the price.  Their clean up was amazing.  The price was very fair.  I have used Canzler in the past and will always use them for any future tree service needs.

Response to a request for a quote was in a timely manner. I was told there was a three week waiting list, but was called two weeks later as they had an unexpected opening.
They cut down a 30 year old cedar tree that was in a tight spot - right up next to a fence and within feet of above ground wires. I was left with beautiful fireplace length logs and no mess. Cleanup was on-going throughout the process. They made sure that nothing ended up in the neighboring yard. I would hire Canzler Tree Service again.

Tony Canzler showed up with his crew right on time .  The job took them approximately 1 1/2 hours, and the clean up was exceptional.  I was really impressed with how hard they worked and the job they did.  I've had several trees taken down in the past and Canzler Tree Service is by far the best company I've dealt with.  I will definitely use them again for future jobs.

I would have to say these guys were the consummate professionals and knew their business inside and out.  They came out for an onsite estimate a few weeks prior to survey what they were going to be doing and give a free quote.  They set a price of $1300 + tax for:

1) Cutting down of both Poplars

2) Grinding one of the Poplar stumps (the other was in a marsh and not accessible for the stump grinder), so I poured stump killer on the newly exposed trunk.  Also, grind a 2rd stump from a previous removal years ago, up to 1.5 feet below ground and leave the stump grindings

3) Shred/grind and haul away all the branches

4) Leave all of the cut up limbs and trunk in piles no bigger than 18-20" (inches) long (not firewood size) as pieces still need to be cut down to size by us to be used a firewood.

5) Clean up the area when done and leave similar to how they found it

They showed up on time at 0800 with a crew of 3 (a 4th showed up a bit later), a commercial tree shredder, dump truck and a pickup they used to lower larger limbs and branches to the ground safely with a rope.  One guy climbed the tree and topped (cut the tree from the top as he slowly climbed down) as the others picked up branches and shredded them.  Once the 1st tree was bare and only had it's large 40' high trunk left, they hooked a rope over the top part and used it as a fulcrum.  They used it as part of a pulley system to safely lower the branches and limbs of the 2nd Poplar (they were 20 feet apart).  It was like a choreography with how they moved and knew what each person was supposed to be doing... Amazing to watch! 

Safety was the utmost priority with all of them.  You have to be, when climbing 40' in the air with a 3' long chainsaw, while tied into a tree your cutting down and your fellow workers are below you with falling limbs and branches.

Once the 2nd tree was topped all the way to the stump, they cut and felled (chopped down) the 1st Poplar (the one used as a base for the pulley assist) and used chainsaws to cut it up in place.  As some of the workers were still cutting up the limbs and trunks into more manageable sized pieces, they began to grind the stumps.  The machine made quick work of the stumps (even on the freshly cut poplar) and left a nice pile of wood shavings and dirt for us to use as a mulch in other areas of the yard.  They cleaned up and were ready to head to the next job on their schedule by 1215. 

They did all of that in just about 4 hours, which shows they are efficient, experts in what they do and very professional!  I would highly recommend them to anyone and would call on them again if we needed other services.  One of the best parts is they allowed us to make payments.  Didn't sign anything, just asked before hand if that was alright.  So, we'll make 3 payments of $474 and be paid off in 3 months.  That was awesome!  They don't take credit cards, but are willing to work with you on how to pay...which for us was a blessing.

You don't stay in business for 60 years, if you're not willing to help out the customers... to earn their business!

Thanks Canzler

They did an amazing job! The big tree was surrounded by lawn, deck and a patio. They carefully removed the limbs and brought the tree down gently. They cleaned up completely. You would never know they were here. We would highly recommend the Canzler brothers!

They did a great job.  Reviewed with me, what was going to be done before they started and also did so during the job.  And then again at the end.  Great communications.  They also ground up 3 old locust stumps in the front yard for no additional charge.  They all went above and beyond my expectation.  And also cut down close to ground level, some stumps of the Locusts.
On the Arborvitaes that had gotten away from us, they cut out the branches that had been bent over and mis-formed from the Ice/Snow storm of early 2012.
These are the type of people I like to work with, all down to earth.  All 4 worked like a well oiled machine.  I had other jobs to do, and I let them do theirs.
