Mr. Allen returned my call promptly and came out the next day and gave me an estimate. We called him back and set up an appointment for the following week. They arrived on time and got to work. They were very professional and efficient. Mr. Allen tied large limbs to guide them where he wanted them to fall. They cleaned up everything very well also. The job took about 3 hours. My husband was out in the yard the whole time showing them what he wanted trimmed. It was a hot day, but that didn't seem to bother them. We were so impressed with their work, we added another $100 to the check. We will definitely call Mr Allen back for any further tree trimming and have already recommended him to a neighbor.
Description of Work: Mr. Allen and his crew trimmed 7 trees in our yard.

He responded to our inquiry right away and came to the house to give an estimate. HIs estimate was far lower than the other two we received. However, when asking details about how the trees would be trimmed, it was difficult to get a clear sense of his plan, and what sense I did get was not good. He seemed to suggest he would top one tree and "round it out." I did not think that was best given the type of tree and the space within which it was located. Arborists I consulted with later proposed a different trimming strategy. I really appreciated his responsiveness and punctuality, but I question the overall quality of the tree care compared to some other companies with certified arborists on staff.
Description of Work: We did not actually use this service, but we did get an estimate to have some trees trimmed.

Mr Allen started cutting the tree around 9 am and by mid-day he had all the branches down He not only removed the branches and made sure that they did not damage my neighbor's garage. The next day,he even brought in a crane (at no additional charge to me) to remove the trunk. The job was done in one and half days during one of the hotest parts of summer with 90%+ humidity. He made sure his crew was taken care of so that they did not get dehydrated. Best part of the whole job was agreed to on a handshake, not asking for payment until the job was done.
Description of Work: Mr. Allen accommodated me to remove a dying Maple tree in back prior to school starting in August. He made sure his crew cleaned up both my backyard and the neighbor's prior to moving to the front to top two trees there . Finally, he made sure that part of the neighbor's stone wall damaged by a limb was repaired at his expense. The neighbor was pleased and so was I with his detail to his work. I recommend Mr Allen's Tree Service to whomever may need such service.

I called the service on Monday at 4 PM and he was at my house shortly after 5 that day to give me an estimate. We agreed on a price and he was at my house on Wednesday at 9 to start the job. He and his crew were friendly and thorough, making sure to clear away all of the trimmed brush and limbs and sweep up the clippings in my driveway. It took a bit over four hours to do, but there was a lot that needed done. The removal of the bush wasn't included in the estimate. He noted that it was nearly dead and removed it for free. I have another tree that needs to be removed this summer and I plan on using them again.
Description of Work: Removal of one pine tree and stump, one small dead bush, trimming and thinning out of one large maple tree, and trimming of another pine next to my house.

I thought the price was high, but decided to go with this company rather than shop around. Bill Allen never showed up to do the work. They did not call to offer an explanation as to why they did not do the work.
Description of Work: The company gave me an estimate to cut part of a tree down and trim three others. The price was $500 and the work was to be performed August 28 or 29.

ALL INTERACTIONS WERE EXCELLENT. THE WORK PERFORMED WAS OUTSTANDING. WE HAD A LOT OF DEAD WOOD, ALL OVER, IN THE LARGER TREE. I DO NOT KNOW HOW THEY REMOVED ALL THE DEAD WOOD, AND ONLY THE DEAD WOOD, BUT THEY DID. LOOKING AT THE YARD THAT AFTERNOON, YOU COULDN'T EVEN TELL THEY'D BEEN HERE, NO DAMAGE TO ANYTHING, NOTHING TO CLEAN UP!
Description of Work: DEAD WOOD REMOVAL FROM A LARGE OLD (100 YEARS) SWEET GUM TREE. REMOVAL OF ANOTHER SMALLER SWEET GUM (30-40 YEARS) THAT WAS DYING, INCLUDING STUMP REMOVAL.

I HAD BEEN TRYING TO HAVE TREES TRIMMED OR REMOVED FOR THREE MONTHS. I COULD NOT GET ANYONE TO CALL ME BACK. BILL ALLEN ANSWERED PROMPTLY, SHOWED UP WHEN HE SAID HE WOULD, AND DID A GREAT JOB. HE WAS VERY COURTEOUS. HE EVEN RECOMMENDED A ROOFER FOR A REPAIR WE NEEDED, CALLED THE ROOFER HIMSELF. I DID NOT EVEN HAVE TO MAKE THAT CALL! GREAT SERVICE.
