Description of Work: Called for estimate on trimming some trees and possible removal of one. They came out looked over the job, were very nice, came out with another person looked over job and left. Never heard from them again--no estimate, no I don't want the job, no nothing. Called them after a couple of weeks--Was told they were very busy. I called another service who came out and gave estimate on the spot and did work within a couple of days. I don't know why Chris Francis advertise if they are to "busy" to service new customers. I certainly won't call them again for tree trimming or landscaping. The other company I hired has since serviced two of my neighbors yards.

Response from CHRIS FRANCIS TREE CARE
No excuses here. This is not the way we do business. I am completely sorry for your unfortunate experience. Please contact me personally to discuss this situation. Upon my investigation, I have learned that the tree that needed to be removed had serious decay and could not be climbed safely. It is our policy and that of the ANSI and ISA that dead or seriously decayed trees are not to be climbed. In this situation, a boom truck could not get to the tree, and neither could a crane. Both my supervisor and climber felt it was unsafe to climb this tree. There are many others willing to take high risks at the chance to make a buck; but our company policy will not allow for it. Had we worked for this client, he/she would have been extremely pleased with our work and rated accordingly. I regret we had the communication breakdown as someone should have contacted the homeowner to further discuss our concerns and decision to not bid the job. We are currently in the process of implementing new software that helps track jobs so we can eliminate the rare occurrence of things "falling through the cracks." Please understand this person's experience is not the norm, it is not the way we do business, and it is certainly not the reputation we wish to have. I am professional and strive to provide professional services to my clients. Please call today to see for yourself. (251) 367-8733

The project went very well.
Description of Work: Felled a large tree in our front yard which was very close to our house. They placed the tree exactly where they wanted it to fall. They had enough personnel and equipment to do the job quickly. They cut up and hauled off all the debris and cleaned the area before leaving. They seemed to take extra precautions to prevent damage to our lawn. Overall, a very professional job.
