First-time "user"; wanted 2' x 4' split/dried wood; he came by very soon after calling, and stacked the wood in my rack; he added some kindling as well. As I recall, it was a good price compared with some others I've found and it burned as well as or better than one of them.

Called Ken at McKay Tree Service and he arrived the following morning with a truckload of seasoned oak firewood. He quickly unloaded and stacked our 4'x8' rack beyond full. Looks to be great quality wood and a very generous face cord. Great value.

We had a birch tree that had one branch hanging dangerously close to our neighbor's house and he was concerned that it could cause some serious damage if it fell. Also, we had another tree in the yard that was not in good shape...several dead branches and others hanging over the vegetable garden blocking the sun. We got both situations corrected and they left us the wood as requested so we could use it in our fireplace. They even removed some brush (without us even asking) we had stacked up in the back yard waiting for the village pickup which was a week away. Great service all the way around.

Went wonderfully well! The amount of work should have taken much longer than Ken and his four helpers took, but they were done in about three hours. Not only did they cut the trees down, they ground the stumps way into the ground. Probably the job I was most impressed with was their cleanup. Amazing! No leaves or mulch left on the ground; everything was picked up and hauled away or mulched. These are some of the most hardworking guys I've ever seen, and I can't say enough about their industriousness and professionalism. What a joy!

Work was done on time and as discussed. They did a very nice job cleaning both my yard and my neighbor's yard. All trunk pieces were removed. Ken is a good man. He stands by His word and His work. I have had Ken from McKay Tree Service do tree work for me a other locations and just as before, I was very happy with his work.

This is the second year we've used McKay for our winter firewood supply, and I expect to keep going back as long as he's available. Dave returned my call promptly and we agreed on a time and date for delivery - the next afternoon, I think. Dave arrived and began unloading right away.
Description of Work: Dave brought a generous load of firewood to our home, unloaded it into his wheelbarrow, brought it to the back yard and stacked it neatly in our wood rack. The rack is 4' by 8' (a common size - we got it at Meyer's) and was filled higher than the top of the end bars.The process took a little over an hour.

I've ordered firewood from this guy 3 times now. He shows up when he says he will (within a week of my call), and he gives me a full face cord of wood. The wood is dry. I paid cash last time. The price I listed is from memory. I might be slightly off.

All work was performed as discussed. The trees look great. All branches removed and yard was cleaned up, so you could not even see anyone had done any work. Very pleaased with the work performed. I would definitely call McKay Tree Servive again.

Delivered on time with just a phone call to arrange, brought to the back of my yard and stacked in a log rack, ready for the winter. Price included the cost of the wood and stacking.
Description of Work: Called and asked for enough wood to fill my 4x8 foot log rack. Ken and I agreed on a price, and he was here within an hour! Delivered to the back of my yard and stacked in the rack - maybe a little higher than 4 feet - all done within about 45 minutes. Nice job, friendly fellow, wood looks good, and I love a good fire in the wintertime....

The representative who came was very rude. He asked what my mother wanted done and she told him she wanted the removal of any branches hanging over the fence. He said it would be hard to give an estimate for that, but then said it would probably cost somewehere between $800-$1200. Then he said he could cut the limbs hanging over the house for around $600 and the ones hanging over the driveway in the front yard for about $100. He said something like "You will probably change your mind once we are here so it is hard to give you a price." He asked my mom what she thought it would cost. She said she didn't know, that was why she was getting some estimates. He then walked down the driveway and said he wasn't going to bother writing anything up.
Description of Work: McKay Tree Service was contacted by my mother to get an estimate for some tree trimming at her home. I had recommended them as they had removed a tree for me the previous year.

He called today and said he would deliver in a few hours. He neatly stacked the wood and felt the oak was dry and ready to burn. Ken is very upfront, so we negotiated the total cost for the face cord of oak, including stacking. No misunderstandings. I turned away a wood delivery last week from a local firm, after they showed up and wanted extra for stacking on top of delivery. Would recommend and will use again.
Description of Work: Called Ken yesterday about firewood. He seemed very honest. He told me he had oak which had been cut several months prior, but was concerned as to whether it was seasoned yet. I told him I was in no rush to burn it, so he agreed to deliver a face cord.

Ken was cordial and delivered on time. We burned as number of outdoor fires this weekend and wood was dry & burned GREAT!
Description of Work: McKay delivered a full & honest face-cord of mixed hardwoods that came to a 4 by 8 ft stack (when parallel stacked). Other unreputeable wood guys we used in the past sold us firewood that was crisscross stacked , thus the other guys sold less than the face cord we paid for. McKay delivered an honest face cord.

We ordered and received a face cord of hard wood with about 30 pieces of birch. I called for the order, got scheduled on the day I wanted and he got here even a little bit earlier than I had hoped for. All perfect. We have not used the wood yet, but it looks great and we look forward to using it next winter.

MCKAY TREE SERVICE We had gotten 4 estimates, and we chose McKay Tree Service. McKay Tree Service, did a really great job, for really little amount of money. We had estimated up to $400, for the same job. The gentleman called me very promptly. They came out when they said they would, and cleaned up after themselves really nicely. It was kind of a small job, and a lot of people wouldn't want to do it, but McKay Tree Service, came out and took care of it very well. The gentleman came in, had a few words with me, was very personable, and everything went fine.

The representative responded to my call more than a day after I spoke and left a request for an on-site estimate (with their answering service). McKay returned the call more than a day later at 6:30 PM on a Saturday evening, and in a rambling conversation which can only be characterized as non-productive, he tried to ascertain what work was required by asking follow-up questions which could have easily been understood and answered if he had cut to the chase and indicated a willingness to schedule an on-site estimate. Simple thing to do would have been to schedule an on-site, like others who respond do, but it seemed more like an interview to determine whether or not he was interested in even getting to that point. I finally had to cut him off and tell him I was not interested in having him do any work for me.
