Currenly, I am not going to use his service, only due to the high cost for his services. However, I've used Davey Tree Co. in the past and was pleased. The free estimate was detailed: Removal and haul away of dead ash tree, with tree trunk cut to low grade. Plus, it stated equipment would be taken into our yard. We discussed the route the equipment would take, as to not disturb our neighbors lawn or our septic tank.
Description of Work: Wayne Thompson came out and gave me a free estimate on the removal of one ash tree, which I thought was a little high. He said he's an Arborist, so we discussed the viability of the two remaining ash trees on our property. He was very helpful, courteous & professional.

I called Davey tree service to schedule for an estimate. On the scheduled day they never showed up. I called the office and they said that it was on the calendar and would try to reach the person by cell phone. Office called back and said after repeated calls, they got not answer. Next day (Saturday), the estimator called and said that he got the voice messages but that nothing was on his calendar to do an estimate. I knew something was amiss when the office verified it was on his calendar but he said it wasn't. Of course, his computer was down and he couldn't look. He promised he'd call the following week to reschedule. I gave him the benefit of doubt and waited until Tuesday morning -- but no calls. I called a different tree service who responded quickly and professionally.
Description of Work: Never showed up. Called office three times.

Harold, my Davey Tree representative, is an extremely knowledgeable tree expert. He came to canvass the job beforehand, and brought all of the proper equipment to do the job. The job involved a large crane which could reach the tops of a Bradford Pear and a Locust tree. They also trimmed and shaped smaller trees and offered advice on care. Harold is not only aware of tree health, but the aesthetic look of the tree when it is trimmed. I appreciated his attention to detail.
Description of Work: Trimmed extremely difficult trees.

Mike Volz arrived promptly and was extremely knowledgable about the issues with my trees and shrubs. Most issues were with overgrown trees. They arrived promptly and finished their work in one day and left the yard immaculately clean. They managed to poke a hole in a screen which Mike removed, took to the hardware store, had repaired and returned to us within a couple of days. I will definitely use them again in the future as needed. Could not have asked for anything more.
Description of Work: Four trees and many shrubs were overgrown and were trimmed back, either in size reduction or cut back for restart. Two shrubs removedcompletely. One tree removed with stump ground out.

I chose them because of their reputation. They are actually pretty big worldwide. They did a good job.
Description of Work: The last service Davey Tree Co. has done for us was to remove a tree and some bushes we didn't want. They did some heavy duty work. They brought a stump remover out and had to use it on the tree. They also worked for us last year.

Responsive, knowledgeable, professional. Gave straight forward quote. Called on Saturday to let us know work would be done Monday. Since it was a smaller job, they scheduled us in tandem with a larger job. No problem for us - they were good on their word. They had utilities marked Thursday / Friday. They completed work in a couple of hours while my husband was running an errand. Other than the work being completed, you can't tell they were here. Nice clean up job. Thank you!

I called them because there was an oak tree on the side of my house that was dying. They came out on time to mark the utilities and the next day I came home from work and the tree was gone. They did a great job! I have no complaints and I highly recommend them!

Time will tell to see if the treatment is successful. Davy informed us up front that they did not guarantee success. We felt the treatment was worth the cost rather than surely lose all of the trees.

The quotes were free. They arrived on time to spray my trees. Their sales rep never got back to me the next year. I was told that the applications were needed to save the trees or else they would die. When I spoke to an arborist, he said otherwise.

Good experience. workers and sales man answered all of my questions and addressed any concerns.
Description of Work: Saleman showed up on time and provided good advice along with a quote on the spot. Due to our timing winter rates were in effect so the pricing was better than expected. The day of the work the crew showed up on time with a large amount of equipment and got right to work. The tree was out by lunch. The stump removal took some time as the tree was quite large so they had to finish up on a second day. Work was performed to my expectations.

Overall, the experience went okay. The main guy came out to give me an estimate and wrote down everything that I asked them to do. Once the landscapers arrived, there was some confusion about what they were supposed to do, and I had to show them the written estimate that was provided to me to get the work done that I wanted. The landscapers didn't cut the bushes like I had requested (at all), and seemed to be in a hurry. I don't think I'll have them come out again for any trimming.

Great experience overall. I called for estimate and received within a couple days. I would've liked to be there to discuss one of my trees with the arborist, but I don't know if they can schedule that way. They were pretty busy, so they didn't come for a few weeks after I called to schedule service. I wish they would've given me more notice when they were to show up as I would've like to be there. They cleaned up very well and I almost had no idea they had come. Two of the trees weren't raised enough in my opinion and I called to ask if they could come back. They came on a Saturday to do the additional trimming to raise the canopy and left a note in mailbox. No additional charge. Good experience... will hire again.
Description of Work: They trimmed 3 trees by removing deadwood and broken limbs, cleared from house and wires and cabled one of the trees.

They arrived on time and cut down our tree and cut up the branches by chipping them and then blowing them into their truck. After cutting the tree down, they cleaned up the chips. The next day they came back to grind out the stump. The roots were very large and they cleaned up the area again when they were finished. Davy Tree did an excellent job and we were very pleased with their service.
