Pretty punctual from the beginning of the first time we got our estimate. Was hesistant because I have a tree right next to the electrical cables. That’s why I’m glad they are insured which was my main thing I was looking for. They got the job done and everything done in 1 day. I had 3 big trees to fully cut down to the stump as well. 2 other trees to trim of and another stump I had left over. Amazing guys. Great service. Was more than satisfied with the results.

We have used Eddy's Tree Service twice and they are always VERY safety conscious, which was very important when the tree limbs were over my neighbor's house near their dining room windows.

I recently bought property in the Venetian Village subdivision of Lake Villa, IL. On it were seven trees that needed to be removed--four dead, two mostly dead, and one 40-in diameter tree very near the house that was leaning over the roof. All of the trees were mature ones and quite tall. Eddy and his crew made it look easy, but I know it wasn't, especially the one so close to the house. Their teamwork was impressive. Excellent clean-up afterward. This is a service company I can definitely recommend.

Eddy came out and was great and gave us a reasonable quote. When I called to schedule, I spoke to his wife twice, left two messages and emailed him. He has never bothered to call back. I guess he doesn't need the business.

Eddy arrived at 7:00 am and began to work. They were very careful of hinging wires and cables as well as existing structures. All work was done in three and half hours. They cleaned up all small branches and sawdust before leaving. Overall Eddy and his crew were fantastic and I would hire them again. Gary Giles

The job went excellent! Eddy's Tree Service gave me an acceptable quote on Monday and were back on Tuesday (as promised) to do the job promptly before the storms arrived. Highly recommended!
Description of Work: A large trunk of our 60 foot tall elm tree was splitting from the main section. It needed to be removed before it broke off and potentially fell on someone. We also needed significant dead wood and trimming done on all of our trees.

EXCELLENT! Eddy responded promptly to questions and providing a quote. A crew arrived on time as promised to cut down the tree. They expertly felled the tree, cut it up, ground it all into the truck and cleaned up in about 30 minutes. They even moved the truck to be sure the street under the work was cleaned. Shortly after, the stumper arrived with an expert operator. The stump was ground up and the earth softened. Again, the yard and work area were thoroughly cleaned of debris. Great job done very professionally. Thanks Eddy.
Description of Work: Work was to remove a large over grown 40 foot multi trunked Snow Crab tree and grind out the stump so I could replant a tree.

Great! We hired Eddy's because Wayne the estimator had worked with our neighbors and also worked with the previous owners of our house (we are new homeowners). Wayne was amazing! We knew we were in good hands when he was able to recall when the owners had planted our mature trees. Wayne's experience and expertise really shine. He was so personable and answered our many questions. Wayne was very honest about what needed immediate attention and what could wait. I thought his pricing was very fair but I didn't bother looking elsewhere to get any other estimates because I was so impressed by Wayne and his knowledge of trees/plants and our specific property. After the estimate Wayne stopped by with Eddy to explain to him what needed to be done so that the day of the job everything ran smoothly with the crew. It wasn't anything that I needed to be home for but I was and it is nice to know they work closely together to make sure they are communicating what needs to be done. Eddy and his crew showed up on time the day we agreed upon and got right to work. I am so glad I was able to be home just so I could watch these guys hard at work. They clearly have an organized crew. They went to work like an operating room crew, each person knew their job, got right to work and did not stop until everything was finished. They cleaned up after themselves and hauled everything away. They even took the time to smile and wave to me and my kids who were pressed up against the windows in awe of their work. We haven't planted anything yet and already have had so many compliments from neighbors on how nice the house looks without all the overgrown yews. We plan to use Eddy's in the fall to trim our giant oak trees and for future tree trimming.
Description of Work: giant overgrown yews removed from foundation plantings, stumps ground, small tree pruning, small tree removal.

Eddy went over exactly what I wanted done and gave a written quote and a named additionally insured certificate. I thought the price was fair for the work being done. They knew what they were doing and carefully "chewed" the trees down working very carefully and safely. As I requested all the smaller stuff was removed and the larger logs were cut and stacked for firewood. The area was cleaned up and all that was left was the wood chips from the chain saws. Eddy checked that what we agreed had been done and that everything was satisfactory to me. I HAVE NO HESITATION IN RECOMENDING EDDY"S TREE SERVICE
Description of Work: Removed two dead Ash trees and removed large branches overhanging the house. There was little room for error with out causing damage. All of the work was over an addition with 8 skylights in a crowded area to work.

I would like to preface, I do not reside at the house. Well, he did show up at the appointed hour despite the e-mail I sent him that morning. Again no response... In that e-mail I wrote since he has ignored my need to have a written contract with his acceptance of the terms we do not have a meeting of the minds and not to show up. Because I do no reside at the house I also contacted my neighbor and asked him if they did show to tell them not to touch a thing and please leave.. Eddy did call me after speaking with my neighbor. He said he "understood". My response, totally unacceptable.
Description of Work: It is what he did not do. We met and orally agreed to the work that needed done and the price. Since it was oral, I told Eddy I would e-mail him the list of our verbal agreement. I did so 3 days later. I asked him to respond this was what we had agreed upon. I waited 2 days and received no response from him. I then called him. He asked me to re send the e-mail and he responded he received it.' Over and over again including the day before he was to come out, I e-mailed him and had 2 conversations with him to simply send me a confirmation that my e-mail consisted of all the work he was going to perform. Nothing.

Eddy quote me a price that I thought was fair. I needed all of the tree removed including the stump and I needed it hauled away. The next morning Eddy showed up with 5 guys in hard hats and all the equipment necessary. This was a huge heritage tree - over 100 years old. The work was completed in a little over 2 hours and cleaned up nicely! I was very happy and would recommend Eddy.
