Went GREAT!
Description of Work: Needed 3 sweet-gum trees and 1 large water oak removed from a backyard with limited access. 4 other companies bid the job and all wanted to use a crane positioned in my neighbors driveway. Thomas with Precision did not want to use a crane as he worried it would damage the neighbors driveway. He alternatively thought that removing it without (more labor) would be safer and no chance of hurting others property. He also came in with the lowest bid and overall the nicest and easiest to work with. His wife Gloria kept me informed during the entire process. Will definitely recommend to friends as I have already done.

Very easy to work with. Work was delayed a week due to another job, but overall happy with the service. Once begun, time frame was around a week total: Tree was cut. Debris picked up a few days later. Then stump was ground a couple of days after that. Very good communication.

dead branches trimmed. Mr. Litton was extremely personable, on time, helpful, professional, and reasonable with his services for the small job I needed done. They are extremely organized and came out when they said they would, both for the consultation and for the actual work. WOW...they were great! The trees in the back look great and healthy now. They cleaned up after themselves. I will definitely use them again if I need them in the future.

At first it was great. Until the owner left and didn't come back to inspect his employe's work. Here it is 22 days later, 3 weeks, two promises to come pick up the remaining debris and explain what I'm supposed to do with a damaged tree. Neither time I was told they'd be here, did they show up. So, they do work, make a big deal about fixing what's wrong, but don't actually fix anything. I still have debris they were supposed to get sitting there. I still have a damaged tree with no clue if it can be saved, or if "I" have to take it down and replace it myself. Extremely unhappy with the work and the way I'm so easily blown off (and lied to) when it comes to making things right. If they had shown up, at least the second time they promised to, I would have changed this bad review. But, well, that never happened... After reading Mrs. Litton's response, I can tell you she is not giving the actual facts, and is not being honest about what actually happened.
Description of Work: They were to remove one very large Water Oak in the front, grind it's stump, then remove several smaller Hackberry and other trees in the back. Leaving one baby oak in tact in the back. Remove all debris. They came out on a Saturday, and rushed the job, as the owner had to go away for the weekend on a pleasure trip with his family. I should have seen that as a red flag. The wife called me long before the work was completed to be sure I was going to write a check for the work right away. Really? Seriously? Harass me about payment before the work is completed? A hole was left in the gravel driveway when the Water Oak fell on it. They offered to fill it with mulch from grinding the stump. Who fills a "driveway" with mulch? It decays and in six months has to be filled again. Not to mention the mess it tracks on your car into the carport and on your shoes when walking over it. I specifically demanded they NOT do that. I was having dirt delivered later to renovate the yard, and said I'd get extra dirt to repair the driveway. Mulch to repair holes in a driveway? Really? They knew I was going out of town on a business trip for several days the very next morning. They were not able to complete the clean up work that day, but said they'd finish Monday. I cam back home the following Thursday at 2am. I pulled into my driveway after a 5 hour flight, an hour drive home, exhausted and I see... Not only were the driveway holes filled with mulch as I demanded they NOT, but with a two foot mound piled up over. This HUGE mound covering the center of my driveway I had to drive AROUND. The next morning I found that a good bit of debris in the backyard was not removed. I also found the baby oak tree that was to be kept in tack had 75% of its branches damaged and broken, left hanging lifeless and at this point brown. I now have to take the tree down myself as it was damaged beyond salvation. It rained that day also, and found the mulch in the driveway turns to a grimy, sticky slush that stick to my car when I drive over it, to my feet when walking out to get my mail or take out the trash, and tracks onto my carport and in to my home. How did they figure "mulch" was an acceptable repair for holes their work punched into my gravel driveway? So I spent today repairing my driveway all day. It is still not finished. I'll have to take care of the remaining debris that was not hauled away myself. And have to take care of this severely damaged tree that was supposed to be kept in tact. Not to mention not as much of the stump grinding mulch was taken away as I was lead to believe, and a huge chunk of the side of the drainage ditch by the front of my driveway has been dug way out, so it can't be mowed properly. I'm very disappointed that the owner left before anyone else to go on his weekend family vacation, then never came back Monday morning to verify all the work was completed as promised. Why did I have to come back three days later and find out I had more damage to my property than before they started? Now, what about the tree that was no supposed to be taken down, that was severely damaged? What am I supposed to do about that? Take it down and replace it myself? Seems so.

Due to the fact that our service area encompasses a 100 mile radius of the Baton Rouge metro area, Thomas must plan his many stops during the day in advance. We rely on customer's returning our calls so that we know someone will be home when we return to a job site to address any concerns. This particular customer did not return 2 of my calls, immediately after seeing his post of dissatisfaction, and he did not return Thomas' call the next day, or the following day. He had told us he had taken care of everything himself, then he changed his mind and e-mailed us for Thomas to come back. He also told us that he had "too much going on" to meet with Thomas. This customer did not return any of our calls--we received e-mails after the fact and after he changed his mind several times. I was told by {Member name removed} when I called him to check on job status that everything was going just great and that the crew was doing a fine job--this was late in the afternoon, very near job completion ; the job was started early in the morning and the crew had been there already for 8+ hours. I was not able to reach Thomas, as he was running saws and working along with the crew himself all day. The job was not being rushed;{Member name removed} was going to be away for several days and so I was inquiring about payment arrangements. I told him that everything would be finished that day except for the last load of debris hauling, which most likely would be done on Monday morning, and it was. I sent an e-mail to him asking him if everything was satisfactory and he said that everything appeared to be fine when he returned home--except for the mulch-filled hole in his driveway. Thomas offered to come back and remove the mulch and take it away and he said he had it taken care of already. We expressed our concern about customer satisfaction and only now, a week later, are we learning about his displeasure. We offered again to come back and he stated that he "had too much going on" and had no more time to devote to the whole matter. We take customer satisfaction very seriously and have never had a customer this unhappy! {Member name removed}, please know that if you had called us about all your concerns when you returned that we would have taken care of it for you without any complaint or delay right away! Thomas did say that it was an oversight with the mulch- filled hole in the driveway (he did not let the debris hauler know that the owner planned to bring in dirt after the tree removal) ,but, it being a gravel drive, the debris hauler filled it with mulch, rather than leaving a hole where a huge Water Oak tree was taken down-- and{Member name removed}was told to expect some disturbed areas when dealing with a tree this size. Again--had{Member name removed} made us aware of his displeasure upon his return home, we would have made a call-back and handled all his concerns for him! Gloria Litton Office Manager

I had 5 large trees removed from my backyard. Even though it is not easy to access my backyard with large equipment the trees were taken down, stumps were ground, and all the debris was removed. I had several people come talk to me before I picked a contractor and most thought it would be to dificult to do the job without me moving a detached metal carport that is anchored in concrete or removing my wood fence. Thomas (owner) was able to work around the obstacles like they weren't even there. Thomas, his wife, and his crew were by far the most professional, and nicest people you could work with. They did an excellent job from start to finish. The job was finished quickly with no inconvenience to me. I'm very pleased and would definitely use them again in the future.

In a nutshell, Precision Tree Service delivered an outstanding service with competitive pricing and customer care before and after the job. We needed to take down three trees in our front yard - two of which were living and sizable the other decaying. We called for quotes from other companies on Angie's List. Some companies didn't return our call for quotes or estimates others companies sent their sales people. Precision sent their owner and arborist to review the job. I liked their approach immediately, Precision was no nonsense and they provided firm and easy to understanding explanation of the job. They also listened to my concerns of the removal's impact to my neighbor's yard. They provided a quote and detailed explanation of each line item. I think they may have come out to our house 2 or 3 times (without me needing to be there) to assess the ground and make sure the conditions were right before starting the job. This was great for me because I don't have the luxury of leaving work and with the trees being in the front yard, it was easy access for them. They provided me with a detailed timeline and description of results and they met them exactly. If I had more trees to take down, I would call them first. For our expectations and the consideration needed for the job, Precision was one of the best companies we have ever hired for working on our house.
Description of Work: Removal of three sizable trees from our front yard. The three trees were located on our property line near a neighbor's yard and adjacent to utility lines. Stump grinding and debris removal was also included.

See above description;
Description of Work: The workmen came exactly on time to commence work. The job was to remove three trees located on my side yard, and then remove all the debris. All the work was done as prescribed, with no hesitation at all. All debris was put into one pile in the yard near the street so the picker could retrieve all without using the driveway. All debris was picked up and taken away. These gentlement did a great job and I will utilize their services again at a future date. I thought the pricing was quite fair for the work involved. I recommend them, you will not be disappointed.

Excellent work. Their crew arrived right on time and got right after it, finishing the job the same day as promised. Thomas Litton (owner) stayed personally and supervised the entire project while all the cutting and heavy lifting was going on which made me feel very much at ease. Clean-up afterwards was spot-on - besides the large void in my deck from the missing tree that had been a part of our back yard for almost thirty years, you could hardly tell they were there. This was the second time I had used Thomas and was not disappointed either time. I enjoy working with professionals and Precision Tree truly fits that definition. I highly recommend them for all your tree services.
Description of Work: Removal of a large elm tree surrounded by a deck in my back yard which required the use of a crane. Also pruned a live oak in same general area due to branches growing onto my roof and my neighbor's roof as well.

Thomas was very prompt in responding to our request for a bid. His wife takes the calls and is very friendly and accommodating. We walked our yard and discussed what we needed done. He was certainly very professional and knowledgeable. I feel confident that he would have done an excellent job. His estimate was emailed that day. His wife even sent a follow up email to make sure I had received it. We ended up choosing one of the other companies that made a bid. They also were on Angie's list, so it came down to cost. After I let them know our decision, they still sent a very nice email in response.

He is very responsive, he does the work very quickly, and he is pleasant to work with. I would absolutely use him again. He and several guys work together and I think they are just great. They are so considerate of your needs. When I had a tree come down in the middle of winter, he came and secured it because he couldn’t take it down.
Description of Work: Precision Tree Service has come many times because I have a lot of trees. Last time they were out they took down a huge tree.
