It went very well. From my initial call to completion of the job, they were prompt, professional and courteous. They did the job just as I had asked and expected. The did a great job with the clean-up as well. I had a large branch overhanging my house that I was fearful would fall over damaging the house. They were careful and methodical in how they approached the removal. The trimming of both trees turned out beautifully. I got 6 bids on this job, ranging from $350 to $1670. Trees for Needs' bid was at the lower end, but not the lowest. I would have gone with another company that bid less, but Trees for Needs reviews were much better than that other company, so I was willing to pay a bit more. Regardless, I think their price was fair considering all the bids I secured.
Description of Work: Cut a large branch off a mesquite, and trimmed the mesquite and an acacia tree.

This is the second year that I have had TFN trim my Palo Verde. I am very pleased with the work. I need to keep my tree trimmed so that new growth doesn't hang over the wall and into my neighbors yard. Carl's crew made the first cuts on the neighbor side of the tree. Then they trimmed the opposite side, stepping back frequently to get an overall view of the tree to make sure that the tree looked balanced. The end result is beautiful. Carl & Kim make appointment setting easy and their crew do a good job trimming and they cleanup afterwards.

I used to have a horribly neglected obstacle of a mesquite tree in front of my house. Carl came and evaluated the tree. He made recommendations and gave me a very fair quote. His crew did an expert and efficient job on the tree. It's a work of art. I am so glad Trees for Needs performed this work. The nasty tree is now beautiful and I couldn't be happier.

They responded to my request relatively quickly. And, they gave me a military discount as well. Did a good job cutting down the tree (We had all of the leafy braches removed prior to them cutting the tree down). A week later, they came back and ground down the stump. Each time, they cleaned the place up and you would never have known they were there. Very satisfied with this service provider..

They worked hard while they were here. We were a little shocked by the price. The total bill came out to be $270. I would have liked to have had the trees cut a little more back. I probably won't use them again simply because of the cost.

Response from Trees For Needs
We appreciate this customer having us to her home for an estimate. However, when we did the estimate for her in March, the office tried to reach her several times and she finally said she decided not to do anything. She called the other day after 5 months to schedule part of the work. I told her we would call her back today with an exact day for next week. I am not sure where the miscommunication is, but we are happy to go out there to get her work done..

All went very well. The owner, Carl is a certified Arborist and very knowledgeable about trees, their roots systems, diseases, etc. He stayed and directed the crew who were also very nice and accommodating. When they finished trimming the trees, they hauled the branches to the truck and cleaned up my yard so well that it looked like they had not been there.
Description of Work: Trees for Needs trimmed and shaped a large Mulberry tree and removed selected branches from a large Ash tree for shaping. They also grinder a tree stump a couple weeks later.

I called to get an estimate for the work and an appointment was set up within a few days. Carl arrived on time and we walked through the work needed. When I called to schedule the job Kim worked with me to find a convenient time. The crew arrived on time and were done within a few hours. All debris was cleaned up.

After I explained the situation, Carl made a special trip to look at the damaged tree. He then pulled someone in to get the work done before the next storm. They showed up quickly, removed the branch before it did additional damage and cleaned everything up before leaving. They even removed a few extra smaller branches to reduce the possibility of another large limb breaking. All the work was completed by the time the next storm arrived. The person that did the work routinely provided status updates. I appreciate the professionalism and the extra effort required to get the work done quickly.

They did a good job, but they charged me more than my regular service provider. I have a guy that I found on Angie?s List that I?ve been using for years, but I purchased the Big Deal with Trees For Needs because I thought it would be a deal. They do as good of a job as my regular provider, but their pricing is higher even with a $100 off coupon. I suppose what you?re paying for is that they send out a certified arborist though. In reply to the providers response on 7/8/14, its true that we negotiated the final price a couple of times to a point where I felt it was reasonable compared to the price my current guy was charging me. They did nicely trim our large Phoenix palm in the back yard, but our two smaller Mediterranean palms in the front of my house were not trimmed. As to them feeding the palm, my wife told me they gave her the "feeding materials" and politely gave her instructions on how to apply it. My overall rating was a B primarily because of the higher cost , not because of the quality of their work .... which I revised to an "A".
Description of Work: I purchased a $99 Big Deal for $200 worth of Tree Service. They trimmed an Olive Tree, a Phoenix Palm, and Mesquite Tree. They weren't able to trim my Mediterranean Palms.

Response from Trees For Needs
This response is not only disappointing, but surprising. We worked with him several times to get the price to where he could afford it. He insisted he wanted to give us a try. We brought the price down several times and gave the Angie's discount. We not only DID do his palm, we also fed it for free. He said everything was fine. We went way out of our way to accommodate this customer for the chance to show what we could do. We did an excellent job and he got a great, great deal. And yes, just like a certified mechanic, you will most likely pay more for a certified arborist.

They gave me a quote for the work and did exactly what i asked. The only reason i gave them a B on quality was they didn't trim the ficus as well as i had hoped but i asked them to come back and they trimmed it up (almost to a Dr. Seuss style) for $140 more. I know its a hard tree to trim and it had a lot of damage. After 2 1/2 months it is filling in nicely now. The reason i will use this company again is they let us go on a payment plan. Trimming trees is expensive and the owner understands this. He let us spread out the payments over 3 months. Such a nice gesture and smart business decision.
