By law, residential tree trimming cannot cross property lines without permission from the property owner where the tree reisdes. My neighbor retained Dave's Tree Surgeon's to remove branches from a maple tree in my yard that overhung their garage. The trimmers crossed the property line (where there is a fence) and removed the tree limbs back to the tree trunk located on my property. They did not obtain my permission to do so (which I would have denied). Furthermore, the company told my neighbor they had the right to trim my tree back to the tree trunk without my permission. Approximately 1/3 to 1/2 of the tree is gone and is visually lopsided now.
Description of Work: Unlawfully trimmed tree limbs back to the trunk of my maple tree that were hanging over my neighbor's garage.

Response from Dave's Tree Surgeons Inc
[Member Name] I'm sorry you had bad experience with our company. We try to keep our bids as competitive as possible, but they are estimates and not always written in stone. Also I am not sure what other companies you received bids from, did you take into consideration the equipment they were going to use or if they were fully insured or not. All of those factors and more are things we have to put in our bid. On a side note I do not seem to be able to find any record of your estimate on file, nonetheless we here at Dave's Tree Surgeon's Inc. take pride in our customer service and doing quality tree work. Having been in business over thirty years and holding a A+ rating with the better business bureau. Again I am sorry you had a bad experience with us .

This is the second time I used Dave’s Tree Surgeons (best quote out of three a few years back). They sent out a person quickly to give me a quote. It seemed a little high to me, so I did have one other company quote and Dave’s was lower. Also, they have a coupon on their website that I printed and included with the contract. After returning the contract, they came within a very decent time frame since one of the large trees had become a hazard to my home. The crews were very knowledgeable in their craft and took their time to analyze the difficult situation, make a plan, tie off safety ropes, etc. before climbing and cutting. They asked me my preference on where to drop the trees. I also asked for the stumps to be cut a certain height and that was no issue. Since the terrain allowed no machinery in, all the trees were just put on the ground (mostly in the woods) for me to clean up (I am still going at it almost 3 months later!), however, I did ask for them to render all of it safe so nothing would spring when I went to cut some of it or nothing would roll when my kids played in the woods - all of which was done by the crews. I do my own tree work up to a point, but when it crosses that point, I have been satisfied with Dave’s Tree Surgeons.
Description of Work: Cut down 1 two-pronged dead ash. Cut down one huge 4-prong oak tree. Cut down 2-prong ash tree that part of oak smashed from wind.

Trimmed four trees and put a cable in one for support. Cut down another small tree and cleaned up all debri. Good experience from the salesman, Mike; the office, Michelle, and the workers. The price was reasonable and will be using them again in the spring for treatments of diseased trees. Would definitely recommend them in the future. These days I appreciate doing business with a professional and efficient company.

Called and asked for an estimate. They came by the next day while I was at work and left one. They didn't try to oversell, just told me what I needed done. They could have tried to sell me a lot more work I sent back the signed work order and a couple days later they came out and did the job (again while I was at work) Great job, excellent service, reasonable price

They arrived at 8:00a.m. with a crew of 5 and finished at 4:30p.m. Everyone had a job to do and they worked well together. I highly recommend their services!
Description of Work: Removed 100ft pine tree, grinded stump 10in deep and disposed excess chips. Received three estimates and selected Dave's to do the work. They performed the work two days later. I was pleased with their work from last year when they trimed a couple of trees and several bushes. Very glad I selected them to remove this huge tree. Great job!

They discussed about the best options available and I did have them do the work for me. They did a good job and were very professional. I did receive quotes from several companies in the past. However, Dave’s Tree Surgeons have consistently given me lower quotes compared to the others. I would use their services in the future and in fact, I got a quote yesterday for some tree service.
Description of Work: I have used the services of Dave’s Tree Surgeons for several jobs. Their last visit was in March. They came out and reviewed trimming of 6 trees around my house.

Great. Dave's came out in April and wrote est. to remove two old trees, one rotten and hollow. The other tree right next to the house causing roof and gutter damage. They informed me it would take some time because they would need to drive a huge heavy crane truck across my front yard so we needed 10 days of no rain. Due to our rainy summer this took until Oct. The trees were removed and no damage to my lawn. The stump was ground on one of trees.
Description of Work: Removed one very large 75 yr old hollow trunk maple tree stump was ground . Removed another 40 ft Holly tree planted too close to the house and causing roof and gutter damage. This stump was not removed due to utilities near this tree.

Dave's was quick to come out to estimate, but took almost two months to come out to complete work. I'm sure this was due to high demand from the massive amount of work they had from the storm and Spring rain. Also I'd not used their services before and they weren't really taking new customers, so I was fortunate to get them. The work came out fine, got what I paid for. I had received two estimates and Dave's was the lower of the two.
Description of Work: Had work done on large Red Maple tree with ice storm damaged/broken limbs and had muti-trunk cabled for safety of the tree and our house. Also, had another tree trimmed and shaped.

Dave's was great! There is an apartment complex behind our house and to do the work, six of the parking spaces directly off the alley needed to be clear. I had already arranged with the apartment manager to do this and Dave's called me the day before so I could put up signs and also dropped off the traffic cones I needed to block the parking spaces. They got here promptly at 8:00 and started setting up the crane. The guys were very nice. They finished up about 2:30 and the place is absolutely spotless. The alley is completely clean, so are our two backyards. The tree is cleanly cut off at the fence and both families are very happy. What more can you ask for, prompt and helpful people, clean and neat - and a great price!
Description of Work: They removed a very large dead Elm Tree that was on the between our neighbor and us in the backyard. There were electric lines, telephone lines and a fence between the tree and the back alley and to get equipment into the back yard itself would require taking the fence down. We got estimates from five companies on Angie's list, three bid around $2,500, one bid $1,400 and Dave's bid $1,250. It turns out that the three higher bids were based on using a bucket truck to take the tree down limb by limb. The two lower bids were based on using a crane to lift the entire tree, lay it in the alley and feed into the chipper. Using the crane took a lot less time and therefore had a lower price. When we got the bid they said they were about three to four weeks out on scheduling and then the day after we gave them the job, there were bad storms and they called and said that, because of the emergency work, it might be a little longer. But they ended up coming in less than 3 weeks.

Mike's estimate included leaflets on tree health and proper pruning techniques-that impressed me from the start. He assured me my property would be protected so did the work only when conditions would not damage my property. Tree removal was amazing-systematic and the cleanup was amazing. Likewise with the pruning of other trees-I could hardly tell that there was any debris. I had a tree company to compare with-3 years ago, let a tree fall on my house, which put me out of my house for 3 months. Dave's Tree Surgeons used the crane as they promised, protected my property and did a remarkable job of cleaning up. The price was better than the estimate I received from other tree companies. I'm impressed and will definitely use Dave's again and recommend the company to my neighbors, friends and family.
Description of Work: Removal of a tulip popular tree that was diseased and approximately 80 feet tall. Also, pruned other trees that were as tall or taller.

IT WAS GOOD. I THOUGHT THEY COULD HAVE TRIMMED A FEW MORE BRANCHES OFF OF THE HOLLY TREE BUT THAT WAS THE ONLY THING. MY FEELING WAS THAT THEY COULD HAVE TRIMMED OFF A LITTLE BIT MORE AND SO THE PRICE DIDN'T MATCH THE VALUE OF THE SERVICE.
