Bill's originally came out to clean up the red bud tree and remove one limb. When he came, he discovered another limb had to be taken down and they took it down without any extra charge. He did a real nice job.
Description of Work: They cleaned up a red bud tree and another tree has ash borer so they took off two limbs that were dead on that tree.

They were the lowest bid, but it didn’t work out very well. I will not use them again in the future. They agreed to cut all the large trunks of the trees into wood for the fireplace, but they cut wood from only one tree and didn’t so the other as they didn’t want to carry it. They then came up with all kinds of excuses and we had to push them to get the work done; infact they cut corners in everything. They were very terrible and left the shavings of the trees saying that with a couple of rains it will all sink into the drains, which didn’t happen. They didn’t do the right job.
Description of Work: I used the services of Bill's Tree Service to take down 2 large and several small trees. They also cut this wood for my fireplace about 6 months ago.

Totally disappointing. I wanted a cottonwood tree removed from my backyard and got an estimate from Bill and mutually agreed to have it done. His crew came to my house on the appointed date and set up their tools etc. but decided that they cannot do that that day because of the wind that day. Even before, they were grumbling about the possible damage to plants around the tree etc. Mr. Bill told me he cares about the tree climber and he was uncomfortable climbing the tree that day which I certainly understood. In any case, they agreed to come back a couple of days later. However they did not come back on the new date as promised, nor did they call me about rescheduling. A week or so later, his office left a message saying that they can do the work, but they wanted an amount significantly higher than what we had mutually agreed. Obviously I felt let down. I do not think I will ever use him again. Incidentally I have the job done through a competing tree service in a most professional manner at a cost much lower than what I had agreed with Mr. Bill.
Description of Work: I wanted a cottonwood tree removed from my backyard and got an estimate from Bill and mutually agreed to have it done. He reneged on the agreement after his crew came on a scheduled date and wasted a morning with me. I had to use a competing service to get the job done.

The entire process was an excellent experience. The service at the office was very efficient. The estimate was done right away by the company owner. The tree was removed about 10 days later over a morning by the owner's son and his crew. Because it was in a natural wooded area, the surrounding brush was removed by the men so there was room to work. Permission was asked before touching anything. Everyone was very conscientious and courteous The tree was taken all the way to ground, the debris hauled away completely and the worksite was left in perfect condition. We could not have been happier! I highly recommend this company!
Description of Work: We had a large tree (21" diameter) removed from our side yard. It was well over 40 feet tall and only a couple of feet from our house with many dead branches at the top.

Bill gave us excellent service. He was friendly and polite. He and his crew left our yard in spotless condition and were careful not to ruin some newly planted grass beneath the tree.

I called three tree service companies for estimates. Received estimates from two and price was close but selected Bill's based on their response and ability to complete the work quickly. Estimate was received next day after phone call and tree removal completed the following day. The stump removal was delayed for a short period as there had been a lot of rain. I am very pleased with the work and satisfied with the overall job.
Description of Work: Remove maple tree that fell in back yard during storm and also remove crab apple tree on side of house. Three stumps were ground.

It didn't go well at all,since they never came to do the work.
Description of Work: I called to have a branch removed and a cluster of trees re-cabled. They were prompt to come to give an estimate. When they called to give me their estimate, I accepted. they said it would be a couple of weeks, and I've not heard from them since. I very unhappy with the lack of contact.

They did an excellent job. The overgrown area at the back of our property had bothered us for some time. They cleared it out by cutting it back several feet. It looks much better now. They removed all the brush, vines, and small trees and cleaned everything up. They also removed a dead blue spruce tree from our front yard and ground the stump. They even ground the larger roots. They are very thorough and even had the utilities marked before grinding the stump. The were very easy to work with and very trustworthy. If we need more tree work in the future, we will definitely call them.

Bill came to our home and Saturday for a free estimate, working with our crazy work schedule. Very professional and very tactful. Price was very reasonable, considering it was for 5 UGLY, NASTY, fruit trees. No pressure salesman. The trees, sawdust, and the majority of the leaves that were underneath them were gone before we got home on Wednesday. To me and my family it was a very pleasant, not stressful, experience. Bill and his crew left behind a very delightful open space for my family to enjoy. THANK YOU!

They are great. He gives me a whale of a deal. I play poker with his son and we are good friends so he did pretty good. He gave me a good price. He didn't do it for nothing but he gave me a good price. He is reasonable. He's done tree service for me every since I've been here. He has taken down a total of 81 trees. In my particular situation sometimes I am put off for a little bit because I am not charged as much. For the most part they are very prompt and very professional. It is a good group. They are quick and fast about doing their work. His price is in line with everybody else. They work me in when they can. They are very punctual.

I like Bill. I thought he seemed understanding about my situation which is that I can't have everything done at once. He didn't pressure me into doing everything. There were 3 workman here and they worked pretty quickly. They seem to have done a very good job.

I needed to have the overhanging branches and the trees removed and removed quickly, at the request (demand) of my homeowners insurance . Mr. Allen gave me a quote on Saturday, 8/21 that was $500!!! less than the other quote I got for the same job, and because I was in a time crunch came out the next day, on Sunday morning, to do the job. He did exactly what I asked him to do and did it quickly and efficiently.
Description of Work: removed 4 evergreen trees next to garage, removed limbs overhanging house and garage.

Overall, we were very pleased with Bill's Tree Service. They gave us a great price compared to other estimates we received. We were told that it would be a week or two out before they would be at our house and they would let us know the exact date a couple of days in advance. Instead of a couple weeks, they came within a couple days, but we did not get any notification until the morning they came. I was happy to get it done earlier, but the last minute notification did cause some confusion. They were there just after 9:00am and the trees were gone by 3:00pm. There area was cleaned up very well and they did a great job of cutting the stumps very close to the ground. They definitely know their business and did an excellent job.

Bill always quotes cheaper than other places I get a quote from and gets the work done as promised. This tree was up against the house and deck, I wasn't there when they did it but they got it down and didn't damage any thing and left the tree as firewood as requested.
