They were excellent. Ben came out and gave us an estimate and was very helpful and very knowledageable. His crew cleaned everything up and were very polite. It was very professionally done and I was very pleased with the work.

I've used Sandweiss for years and always raved about the quality of their work, but this year (and it has been a year long process) they dropped the ball so many times I wouldn't recommend them to anyone. I contacted them in March of this year to have some bushes removed and start some planting. The removal went fine but they said they hadn't received their trees from the nursery yet so we would have to wait a few weeks. That was understandable, but a few weeks passed... then a few more... and so on. I contacted them every month or so and was always assured we were next on their list. Well, one day I finally got someone on the phone (after leaving several messages and emails) who told me it was now summer so we would have to wait until Fall. I was a bit annoyed, since we now had a barren yard but given how long we've been using Sandweiss I let it go. Well, Fall came around and it was the same song and dance, always a few weeks away, until finally it started snowing and I was told I would now have to wait until the following Spring... again. I, very politely, told their scheduler I was not happy with how my job had been handled or the communication that I've received and that I would like the Owner, manager--someone--to call and explain to me how this all happened. Well that was a week ago and I guess they don't care that they've lost a customer. So in summary, don't expect them to value you as a customer even if you've given them thousands of dollars of work over the years, apparently they only care about their larger clients.

Very professional and considerate service. For example, during removal of the crabapple tree, a wood chip accidentally damaged a nearby window screen. The very next day they sent a person to repair and replace the screen. The new tree looks great and we hope to enjoy it in the years to come.

These guys are top notch. I had a tree removed earlier this year by a different tree company and it was not a good experience. So when I had a couple of other trees and stumps to be removed I went with Sandweiss. I was a bit nervous on my way home hoping it wasn't looking like a disaster. I was very happy to see the stumps were filled in nicely and the wood wasn't all over the place. Highly recommend these guys. Very professional

The overall experience was excellent. It is a little tough to get a hold of someone in their office, which is the reason I gave responsiveness a B, but when you do get a hold of someone the company is great. They were on time to the quote and scheduled work. The price was very competitive, and they did a great job.

This was the best experience we have had! We were able to get a quote in a timely manner. We had contacted 4 places that ranged in price from $500 - 2000 for the same job. They were the cheapest by far. They performed the job exactly the way we wanted. They did a great job cleaning up the yard afterwards. We had to instruct them to drive the trucks through our neighbor's yard to avoid our septic. Our neighbor was so impressed by how quickly and professionally they took down the trees that he is now using them for trees he needs to take down on his yard. There was no damage to his yard either!! I will also say, they have the friendliest people that work for this company. The person I spoke with to arrange the estimate and appointment was so nice and so helpful. If you need any tree work, this is the guy you want to call!
Description of Work: The provider removed a massive pine tree that had fallen in our yard. We also asked to have the remaining stump cut as low as possible.

First the sale person arranged with my neighbor to access my yard which is fenced in by using his driveway. They also took extra precautions by putting down wooden planks to avoid damage to my neighbors driveway, The company then proceeded to position their truck to easily access the damaged trees. To prevent property damage and injury from the tree cuttings they secured each branch individually with rope. They were very meticulous in cleaning up after the job was completed. My neighbor who granted access through the use of his driveway also took this opportunity to have several of his trees cut down. We are very pleased with this service.
Description of Work: Before we decided to go with this company, they came out and gave us a free estimate and provided the quote within (24) hours. They did an analysis of all the trees in my yard and made recommendations. They cut down (3) Locust Trees and without any additional cost cut down an ole tree stump. He gave his recommendation on the best way to proceed without any pressure.

Excellent evaluation and work hand done on each tree. Work was done professionally, high quality workmanship, complete cleanup all at a very fair price considering the large amount of work to be done. All work was discussed with us upon estimate, and again on the day the work was done. Finally, our approval was sought upon completion giving us the opportunity to request any additional touch ups. Truly good work with a very knowledgable staff.
Description of Work: Evaluated, pruned 6 large trees and cut back and selectively hand pruned a large stand of overgrown hemlocks on our property line.

After a brief communication delay with their office staff all other steps of the project went well. Their estimator was knowledgeable + saved me $$$$ by recommending some short cuts to my to-do-list. The work crew arrived on time, were well-trained/knowledgeable and very professional. The final bill matched their written estimate + with their $50 discount coupon the net price was very fair for the work performed. I will be recommending this company to my next door neighbor.
Description of Work: Cut-down + removed a major tall old tree leader + trimmed/removed dead branches.

but they were finished by 3pm and not one branch was left in my yard. The crew were professional and courteous worked efficiently I was more than pleased. They came 2 days after due to rain to grind stump in yard no evidence of a large decayed tree which stood in that location. I would highly recommend them and would gladly call again for any future needs.
Description of Work: I was given estimate by arborist Allen who was very knowledgeable and informative. I was sent the next day an itemized estimate as promised and I was very pleased w/prices for a variety of tree trimming cabling and take away of debris branches. I was able to obtain a quick service date. I took off the day from work to be present for any problem, there were no problems. The crew arrived bright and early and I was concerned that they may not get all the items on the estimate done on the same day

Everything was done neatly and safely from removal of brush, wood and debris. Where their heavy truck tires compressed our lawn they used a pitch fork to raise the compressed areas back up. They also hand raked our lawn of leaves even though most of these were on the ground before they started the job.
Description of Work: Removed major deadwood from a very large oak tree in front of our house. Also removed low section of a limb over wires and a low section of a limb over our house. They removed a low hanging limb from our dogwood tree. Before this work took place I had the pleasure of talking with your Arborist, Allan Bell, who explained to me what he thought should be done.

I think he was very inconsiderate of my time. He should have called to see if earlier was convenient . His estimate arrived while I was away. I decided in spite of all this, because I needed this work done to go ahead. I called his office and spoke to a woman, explained the circumstances and she said he'd call back. That was ten days ago. She asked if I still wanted to get the work done, I said yes. I received no call. Needless to say, I will not use him .
Description of Work: We made an appointment approximately 2weeks before going on vacation. The day and time were agreed upon. A man showed up ( I don't know his name) the reason I don' t know his name is because I had arranged to leave work early to meet him at my home, but he came an hour early without even calling. My friend was home and and she did not expect him nor did she know the details of the the services I required, but she attempted to go through the job with him. He left and said he would send an estimate. I was very upset when I arrive that he had come and gone before I got home.

Response from Sandweiss Tree Service Inc
We have never performed any work for (deleted member name) and I don't understand her complaint. We arrived early to the consult, prepared to wait until the agreed time if she was not ready. However, she or someone else living at her house, purported to know what work was desired. They showed us the work, never indicating any problem, and we mailed them an estimate, end of story. Also, (deleted member name) asked on the phone that we not call her house, for some unknown reason of her own, and this did not help communication. A comparison of this one review with the preponderance of others suggests that the problem in this case doen not lie with us.
