Marty's Tree Service

Description of Work: Upon giving me the estimate he was friendly and courteous, but a little overbearing. Was the only one of the 5 bids I got that followed up with me to see what I had chosen. What I didnt like about him bidding my job was at the end he waived a list of other estimates he had to do that day at me as to make it seem like he didnt need my job. Also he bid it on the higher side of everybody, but somehow came down $2000 to match 2 competitor's bids. That should have been a Red flag to me right away. But since he was the only one that followed up and had a lot of experience and one of the biggest bucket trucks around he won the bid. Set up the job to start on a Tues morning. He showed up Monday without notice and was ready to start then. We had 2 very large trees int he back corner of our yard. Had to use my neighbor's yards to position his bucket truck close enough. Took down the 2 pretty well that first week. But in the process his employee left pop cans in my yard, and he dropped branches on my brand new fence. When I confronted him about the broken boards he didnt take it very well and muttered something about he would replace them if it was such a big deal. He should have came to me before I noticed they were broken and advised me and apoligize for the damage. The second week apparently his truck he uses to pick up the branches was broken. So 2 big stumps sat in my yard while he had some other crew? come and remove them eventually. Part of the hold up was my neighbors had a party in that yard he needed acces to. (only a few days though) But overall if his grapple truck wasnt broken after he bid the job it wouldn't have taken 2 weeks overall to complete. So a simple job as he portrayed it turned into an ordeal. I felt like I had to sit outside and watch him and his crew work, since it didnt seem like they were respecting my neighbors yard very much (crushed plants, poor clean up) My 2 walnut trees he trimmed a little, but missed cutting back the ONLY damaged branch it had. Even recently big branches are still falling out of the Walnut trees. So not a very good trim job in my opinion. Also had an issue where he "brushed" my power line and knocked it off my house. A whole other story there. Not impressed with professionalism or methods. Will not use again for anything.
