Affordable Tree Experts LLC

The quote process was straight-forward and Mike is all business. I recommend using text-messages to communicate because he is often on the road or otherwise unable to answer the phone. We had a half-day "fill job" and had a lose schedule of about a week. Five business days later; the tree was gone. The day before the work was performed we got the scheduled time. The crew was all business but friendly, arrived on time and removed the tree then ground the stump. They cleaned up the area with rakes and were on their way. The quoted priced matched the bill and we couldn't be more pleased.

I contacted Affordable Tree because I had used them before and was happy with the job. I agreed to the estimate and contracted the job the first week of November 2017. For seven months I was stalled and delayed with excuse after excuse. Finally a date was scheduled and I stayed at home waiting all day. No one showed, no one called. I called them and left a message (no one ever picks the phone up) vocalizing my frustration at the way they were treating me as a customer. The next day Mike (the owner) left a message on my machine that he was "returning your call". That's it. No explanation. No attempt to put things right. Just casually returning my call. In the time since my initial contact with them we had 3 nor'easters and part of the tree broke off and hit the house and part is resting (broken on the tree) on my roof. Because I believed them I am now left having to try and get a different service to come and remove the tree 7 months after it should have already been done. You are only as good as your last job. These folks will never be called or recommended by me again.

I called Mike on Thanksgiving morning because I needed help rescuing my cat Felix from a tree, where he had been stuck 40 feet up all night, meowing miserably. Felix is not the hardy outdoors type - he spends most of his time sleeping on a blanket on top of a heating pad on top of a cat bed on top of my bed. To say that he's not used to roughing it would be an understatement. I had spent the night sick with worry over my poor kitty, who was all alone and cold, huddled on a branch high in the sky. I had tried to get him down myself, but it was impossible - he was up way too far, and he was clearly too terrified to try to make it down on his own. Finally, I reluctantly went to bed, promising to bring help first thing in the morning. I called Mike at the crack of dawn, and he came right over with his lovely wife Nancy. They graciously brushed aside my apologies for interrupting their holiday, and Mike got right to work putting on his tree-climbing gear. With the nimble grace of someone with a ton of experience, Mike shimmied right up that tree, gripped the frightened cat firmly yet gently, and quickly rappelled back down. Within seconds of first being grasped by Mike, my Felix was returned safely to me, and I nearly sobbed with relief. A few minutes later, I was pulling out my checkbook, fully prepared for this holiday house call to cost dearly. I am not wealthy, but I would have spent my last cent to have Felix home safe and sound. I was deeply grateful for Mike's help and would have been more than happy to compensate him for it. But to my amazement, Mike and Nancy firmly refused any payment! They simply suggested that I make a donation to a charity of my choice (the shelter where we adopted Felix will be receiving a check shortly :). You don't come across that kind of integrity every day. I was stunned. I will be using Affordable Tree Experts for all my tree-related needs in the future (hopefully no more involving cats!). When you meet a professional with that kind of character, you stick with them. Thanks again, Mike and Nancy!!

I was overwhelmed by the amount of work they did for the price. They were polite, prompt, and incredibly efficient. They used a cherry picker when necessary but the crew climbed my old trees to prune. And they did a phenomenal clean- up job. If there were a rating higher than "A", I would give it to Affordable Tree. I highly recommend this company and will always use them in the future. The owner Mike Grigor, gave me excellent advice about the health and care of trees on our property

Done as agreed on time and affordably.

I gave the company a call after the company was recommended by a friend. Mike was very responsive and came out as we agreed. We walked around the property and we discussed the work that needed to be completed. Additionally, Mike provided some great advise and recommendations being it was obvious he was very knowledgeable in the tree care care and removal profession! Mike wrote up an estimate after discussing the work and provided a written estimate the initial day he came out. The estimate was extremely fair and reasonable!! I contacted Mike the next day that I wanted to go ahead with the work. I was provided with some time frames for conducting the work that was convienent for me which worked out great. On the day the work was performed, the crew was efficient, great to work with, responsive and left the areas where the work was completed in perfect condition! I was extremely please with the entire interaction with this company! Going forward, I would definitely call this company for any further tree care and removal work! I would also recommend this company to anyone in need of tree care and tree removal work! Great Job Mike and all your employees! Please keep up the Great Work!! Thanks!!
