Straight Up Tree Service

These men were like a fine tuned machine. On time, executed their plan, protected everyone's property, removed the tree and they did great cleanup. Great job to everyone.

Straight Up provided and estimate for tree work. We also received estimates from several other companies. We selected Straight Up to do the work. They committed to the price they provided and were supposed to be scheduling a crane for several weeks but we never heard from them. They never showed up to do the work and they will not return our calls.

Brandon and his crew were great - worked fast! Very nice and professional and they are very skilled. I have recommended them to several friends who have used them with great success and I would gladly use them again at my new home when the need arises.

He did an excellent, professional job. It only took a few hours. His team cleaned up the area, taking away all the parts of the tree and leaving a nice pile of mulch from the stumps. I can't remember his name, but I dealt with the owner of the business. A super nice young man owns the business. I could not have been happier with the work and the price. Another estimate I got was for more than double his price!

http://feistyfindings.blogspot.com/2014/07/tree-monster.html Brandon and his crew of magical, sword-wielding (chainsaw) knights had this monster slain AND removed and were off to their next job in under two hours!!! I was thoroughly impressed. Did I mention their estimate was $800-1700 less than the other five I got?! SCORE ME!

This is a a high quality operation led by Brandon. Brandon came out and gave me a fair estimate for the work. He trimmed back and deadwooded a huge walnut tree, trimmed back 8-9 trres on the side of my house and removed a huge limb hanging over the house that was of concern during a storm. He also cut down a completely dead tree in the front yard. Brandon and his crew had all the necessary equipment - bucket truck, chipper. All work was professional, clean up was well done, no injuries or breakage of any sort.

We used their service in the year that we had all the hurricane and ice storm. The tree was damaged overtime and started cracking in the middle. You could hear it popping and cracking. Everybody in town needed tree service; so everybody was all tied up. I called my insurance company and asked them if they could do something about it because it was going to fall on our house. They said that they didn't know anybody that they could get out here, but if it falls on the house, they would fix it. I called the power company and told them that the tree was going to take out the power lines, and they said that if it did that, they would fix it and I didn't have to worry. Meanwhile, I was still worried about the house. A friend had just come by right there and her husband does tree work. She called him and he told her who I could call that would be able to do it. It was pretty amazing because the power people had come out and they were standing there and looking up at the tree. They said that it would take a giant crane to lift it right up and do all the stuff. Meanwhile, the Straight Up guy came and the power guy was telling everything that he had planned and suggested what they could do. The Straight Up guy just kept shaking his head. Late in the afternoon, this old pickup truck pulled in the driveway with the Straight Up guy and an old guy, who was his dad and a chainsaw. He climbed up to the top of the tree and put his arms around the tree and listened to it. Finally, he just cut it in half and fell, and it didn't even hit the bird feeder. It fell between the bird feeder and the bush. Then he dropped the other half in the street and it didn't hit any power lines, which was just unbelievable. It was really awesome. My daughter was there and she said that he was a real man, and she didn't know if they were any left.

Their was so much work because the power lines. LG&E told us that we were going to need a big crane. Straight Up Tree came out and climbed up the tree and cut it our with a chain saw. The halves of the tree fell exactly perfectly so it didn't damage anything. He is great. He is very available and excellent. It was inexpensive and it was amazing.

Called them and they came out the same day for the estimate. Our estimate was for a complete removal of tree and stump in the front yard and to have the back tree cleaned up. They scheduled it for Monday the 10th but about mid week they called me back saying they could get to it Friday morning around 9:00am. They showed up about 8:45am and started setting up to remove our tree in the front yard. By 11:30 they were calling me letting me know that the tree and clean up was complete and they would be having the stump removal guy coming around 1-2pm. The clean up was exceptional. They hauled everything away except the mulch which I just told them to leave so I would have a filler for a retaining wall I was building. These guys are very professional and good at what they do. The back yard tree looks like a completly different tree. With the exception of some sawdust, you really couldn't tell they had ever been there and the tree was gone. LOL I highly recommend them or at least compare prices with them and some of the bigger companies. We got three estimates. One said they could be flexable with the price. This one was the cheapest, and one wanted to remove the tree right off the bat. The other two Companies were confident they could work with the condition of the tree but that it would look a little strange.

When I called, the owner answered and then came out that same day to give an estimate. Work was done two days later. The crew arrived and began within minutes of the scheduled start time, and finished in about 4 hours. They expertly used a high-bucket, and did not hurt any of the other trees and bushes near the work site. They chipped the small stuff, hauled away the logs, and swept up upon completion. Cost was exactly as the estimate, even though they went through several chainsaw chains because the maple tree had hidden concrete and many steel nails in the trunk. (Apparently 30 years ago there was an approach to repairing tree wounds by putting concrete into the weak areas.)

Overall, a job well done. However, holes and depressions were made in the ground after cutting large limbs and letting them fall to the ground.

The company was on time, three people showed up. Cut the tree down without affecting any other property. Did a great job.
