Whit was called to remove an old oak tree, diseased, after a large section fell. They also came out when another oak was splitting and took it down the same day. The crew were professional in their interactions with us and cleaned up the grounds where the tree was felled.
Description of Work: Three trees felled due to age/disease or leaning over the neighbors property.

Whit's-Turn Tree Care work was completed exceptionally well. The workers were very professional, all spoke English and they were prompt in the morning and left the area clean at the end of the day. Our trees look wonderful. These guys know what they're doing and don't just cut randomly into trees...true arborists. I would definitely recommend Whit's-Turn Tree Care to everyone.
Description of Work: Trimmed 15+ almond trees, 3 oak, several ornamental, 6 or more fruit trees one huge fig tree and a very large pine. Also, ground 20 old tree stumps and cut all the wood into fireplace size for us. All of the trees were very much in need of a good trim.

Description of Work: They removed two trees that had fallen on each other. Whitt is very skilled. It was rather complex work but he and his crew completed the job efficiently. This is the third time we've used his services.

I could not be more pleased with the service provided by Henry and his crew. They were on time, professional and very polite. We will need more work done later in the year and we will defiantly be calling them. I just wish I had seen the discount provided on Angie's List but even still, I feel I was quoted a fair price. No complaints at all.

The schedule was set by us the day of the estimate and the crew of six arrived right on time with all the equipment - neat, clean, fully operable - which is the way excellent companies do things. Whit was there and took all the time needed to walk thru the job (based on the estimate) with both of us and his foreman, who was personable and experienced. As is typical with this type of work, a few additions were made and there was no "that will cost you more" attitude. Whit left and the crew - already working on the first part of the job - kicked the work into high gear. For the next four plus hours they did the job in a professional, cooperative manner between each other and with us, as we periodically indicated a "cut here or cut there" to get the type of job we wanted. The foreman was an excellent go-between with us and the crew, but all the crew members were helpful and cooperative individually with - there was no "you have to go thru the foreman" attitude. We would definitely hire them again and recommend them to others.
Description of Work: Whit came out for an estimate and took the time to carefully walk thru the job with us, adding his own good comments and observations that were very helpful. It was a fairly large job and the price he quoted was reasonable and fair and we approved it on the spot. Whit said to call the office to schedule the work.

We had a very large old valley oak tree fall in our backyard. Whit came over very promptly to give us an estimate. He wasn't able to schedule the work immediately due to weather and his schedule - had to wait a week or so. But his crew showed up promptly, very professional, very courteous. They cleaned up and chipped all the upper branches, and left the chips (at our request) in a neat pile. For all the larger branches that were good for firewood, we had them cut the branches into 15-18 inch lengths and leave them in a pile. The main trunk had fallen across our fence line, destroying about 50 feet of fence. We have quite a bit of space where the tree fell, and we wanted to keep the cost of the work down. Also, we kind of like the idea of having a "tree-trunk sculpture", so we told them to leave the trunk where it was - just cut off the pieces that straddled the fence line so we could re-build the fence. They finished the work in about a half a day. We were very happy with the work, and would definitely use them again!

They arrived on time and got the job done quickly. Due to the location of the oak tree, they couldn't use a lift so three guys had to climb the tree to do the pruning. They even cut and stacked the oak wood for me. When they were done, they cleaned the yard of all debris. I was very happy with their work.

We have used Whit's-Turn twice. We were really happy with the service both times. This time they removed a large tree and stump along with several large bushes. We had a small issue but they took care of it right away. They do a great job and I would have no problem using them again.

Whit explained that I had two options. The first being they essentially clear cut the tree which would remove a majority of the non main branches and reduces the cover significantly (the cheaper option). The second option was to allow them to actually clean up the tree, remove what needed to be removed, but at the same time allow more cover and branches to be left (the more expensive option). He explained the reasons behind both options and said they'd be happy to do either. I went with the second option because I still wanted some shade. They showed up about 10 minutes early, were done within three hours and did everything as agreed to. They did a great job on the tree, removed everything they cut and left a minimal mess. They even managed to avoid damaging my fragile fence aside from one board popping out. Was happy with the results, would use again.
Description of Work: I have a very large mulberry tree in my backyard which needed to be cleaned up and managed. Whit came out, gave me a fair estimate and explained what he recommended and what we could do.

We've used them several times over the years. They are excellent. It was $900 for the tree and $300 for the stump removal. It is family owned. They are polite. They are busier in the summer time. Their prices are reasonable and much better than the competition. We have been happy with them. They are here when they say they will be.

Everything went well. They arrived on time and worked quickly. They cleaned up thoroughly. Were polite, friendly and considerate of our neighbors. They moved out into the street to do the mulching of the tree branches to minimize the noise. They even trimmed some branches off an additional tree when our neighbor asked about it -- at no extra charge.

Little did I know that when the tree was being cut down that many of the large branches were hollow and filled with water. I was told that this tree never should have been planted at a home and that the tree would have eventually fallen into my home due to all the chopping of its roots in the past to lay rock & concrete. I was relieved and grateful for their expertise and honesty. Whit's Turn Tree Service was very professional and prompt in coming out the next day to assess the work. All the workers were polite and very efficient and cleaned up after their work. There was some damage done to my rock concrete patio and a oil stain on my driveway. The repair work was done the following week and the stain was cleaned the next day. Everything is good as new. Definitely recommend this company!

I had Whit's remove a very big willow tree that had fallen over in my front yard after a big storm and was partially laying on a power line. I called them very late in the afternoon and they immediately came to my home and had the tree off the power line and most of the tree branches cut off in about an hour. Because of the late hour, they said they would return the next day to finish the job. When I arrived home from work the next day the tree had been removed and I had a nice big pile of mulch ready for landscaping. I was very happy with their work.

A week after a severe storm with gale force winds moved through our area, I got a call around 11:30 in the morning that a large, beautiful Weeping Willow at the front of my home had cracked at the base and fallen over into the street. When I arrived home the City street crews and crews for the phone, power and cable companies were at my home trying to get my large 20' (at least) tree out of the street and off the utility lines. All they were allowed to do was clear the street and push what was left of the tree out of the right-of-way and into my yard. Having used Whit's Turn Tree Care in the past, I called and asked him to come by at his convenience to remove what was left of the tree and take down another that was in danger of falling. By 3pm that same afternoon, Whit had crews there working. By Saturday morning, both trees were gone, the huge trunks had been hauled away, and the stumps were ground. I expected to pay well over $2,000 for the work that was done, but I was only charged a little over $1,100! I have always been very pleased with Whit's work. He and his crews are very professional, knowledgeable and always give the extra effort to see that a job is done right. Whit's Turn Tree Care is the only tree service I will use.
