Professional, honest, punctual. He even came back and staked a young almond tree that had uprooted in a windstorm. I appreciate people that help you out with the small jobs, not just the big ones.

Shady Tree responded to my request for a quote immedidately and we set the date for the service on the spot. There was a mix up about the date - we set a new date. Shady Tree arrive on time and completed the work quickly and cleanly. The noise from the branch shredder was not as bad as I thought it would be. The tree looks beautiful! Thank you Shady Tree.
Description of Work: One Live Oak tree trimmed.

In a wind storm one of our oak trees cracked almost in half. We needed someone to come in and check out the tree and then remove the fallen parts. After meeting with several tree companies decided to go with Chris. He is VERY knowledgeable about trees and really understood that we also wanted a long term plan for our trees. He had some great ideas about how to address our hillside and other concerns we had. The work started and it was sunny and nice and Chris thought he and his team would be done with all the work by 2/10. Unfortunately, the weather changed and his guys had to stop early on Friday due to rain. So they came first thing Monday morning to finish up. My husband and I were both really happy with their work and will be calling them back to help with fertilization, pruning, etc. Everyone was friendly, courteous and the whole team clearly know what they're doing. They are very professional. I highly recommend them to anyone who needs to have work done on their trees.
Description of Work: Tree pruning (2 oaks, 2 pines & an acacia) and tree removal (1 pine).

See above entry...
Description of Work: This company performed fairly major trimming of several large oaks that actually are on neighbor's property, but had a number of large branches overhanging onto our space and intruding onto our roof. This was done and paid for by the condominium homeowners' association of the small condo complex I live in. Additionally they did similar work for me personally (i.e., neighbors' trees overhanging my private patio). They also trimmed and shaped a privet tree in my patio and cut back very overgrown iivy along the fence that separates my patio and neighbors' property.The amount indicated above was for my patio work, and may reflect an adjustment based on my having been the person who secured bids for trhe comlex before turning the final arrangements over to my neighbor who is the HOA president. I found this company's representative (president?) Chris a pleasure to deal with. His two man crew were efficient and performed competently under Chris' general direction. Chris also coordinated with the neighboring property owners in terms of explaining work to be done. Altogether I give this company my highest recommendation.

Would definitely recommend The Shady Tree Co.
Description of Work: In the backyard, an oak tree with a large untrimmed canopy needed help. Three company employees arrived with ropes, harnesses, and various tools. They were competent, efficient, and very knowledgeable about the procedures they would perform. The owner arrived to supervisep and help with the ropes. (He had told us he had to take children to school first.) They lightened the canopy, cleaned up every speck of a very large amount of trimmings, and even went to neighboring houses to collect anything that had fallen. Before even starting in the am, they had knocked on doors to ask for permission to enter back yard. It was an excellent experience. The men were courteous, intelligent, and humerous..
