He was very particular about the trees he would buy and had a definite vision as to what would work and how to place the trees. He clearly enjoys his work and has an amazing design sensibility. We will definitely be hiring him again next spring to do more plantings. I suspect his business will grow quickly so hire him while you can!
Description of Work: This is the second time we hired Andrew for a job. We had 11 very large beautiful evergreen trees installed for privacy from the new McMansions built behind us. He also chose a gorgeous Japanese Maple for the front yard,

Andrew and his crew were very professional. He is extremely knowledgeable and seems to really enjoy his work. The pruning was artfully done. He is punctual and spends time giving advice and explaining the process. He is invested in keeping trees healthy and very good with communication and letting you know when do do a particular treatment ( wooly moth that we will be doing this spring). He will be doing a much larger job for us with plating a large number of trees. Its not going to be cheap but I trust him to pick healthy specimens for the right areas.
Description of Work: Installed cable in large maple tree, pruned several tress and treated for Wooly Adelgid.

Perfectly! Andrew and his staff member arrived when he said he would. Andrew walked my property with me, pointing to and reciting the work to be done, as we'd discussed when he came out to do the estimate. shortly after he began work I had to leave. When I returned several hours later, everything had been so carefully and thoroughly cleaned that I wouldn't have known he'd been at the house if I hadn't seen him earlier -- except for the work having been beautifully and carefully done. In addition, let me note that Andrew returns all calls, texts, etc promptly, is courteous and extremely pleasant, answers all questions thoughtfully and completely, and all in all is a delight to work with. I would recommend him without reservation for any work to be done, and will definitely use him again if the need arises.
Description of Work: Cut and removed branches from several large live trees and several very large dead branches, quite high up. Also pruned some branches of a very beloved redbud (pansy) tree. Removed all resulting branches, leaves, twigs, debris. I have a heavily planted enclosed yard that is not accessible to any vehicles or heavy equipment.

Andrew gave a nuanced evaluation of our trees. He cut off limbs hanging over the house with care for our property and for the tree. He has great equipment and his workers were efficient and happy. The clean up was great. He has fancy equipment that was needed to navigate the limited space of our yard-- we live in a two-family that is close to neighbors on either side. I might also add that they entertained all of the kids in the neighborhood, too.
Description of Work: Andrew came with two other workers and trimmed back three large trees and cut down seven.

Andrew and Bill were beyond amazing. I was worried when Andrew said he would be climbing the tree himself but he is a pro and they are a great team: easy to work with, fast, efficient, safe and extremely neat. I couldn't believe that there was no damage whatsoever to our lawn and ever bit of debris was meticulously cleared away. He also pruned our Japanese Maple and two plumb trees for no additional cost. I would definitely recommend him to friends!
Description of Work: Removed dying Canadian Hemlock tree from our yard and flush cut stump within 6 inches of surrounding grade.

Andrew was very polite and professional from day one, and his price and demeanor beat out all competitors. He arrived the day of the job, on time, and got to work right away. He and one other employee performed the work, and they did a fast and fantastic job. They removed several unsightly bushes from front of our newly purchased home, and transformed a neglected cherry tree from a blob of tangled branches into the highlight of our lawn, and it is my daughter's new favorite spot to play. We have just been in contact about some other other work to be done on our property and I have already given his name out to friends.
Description of Work: Pruned/Trimmed our Cherry tree Removed all brush from Yew bushes and flush cut stumps ~4” to grade Removed all brush from Arborvitae along foundation and flush cut stumps

Andrew Airoldi, the tree advocate, has been taking care of our beech for the past three years. He is diligent, professional, informs us about the needs of the tree and takes care of them. His services include trimming and general tree health maintenance. The tree looks better than perhaps in decades. At least that's what neighbors tell us who have lived here for a long time. "Ever since you moved in, this tree looks so much better." We explain that this is not magic. It's the result of the work of a competent arborist whom we highly recommend without reservations. Hugging trees is satisfying. Do more. Love your tree! Hire the Tree Advocate.
Description of Work: Analyzed soil and applied drench fertilizer plus calcitic lime to raise soil pH level so that it's better for our giant beech tree.

Andrew provided a complete and integrated design both hardscape and softscape for my small and challenging back yard. I have a rather steep hill which Andrew designed to accommodate beautiful hydrangea and rhododendron as well as a number of other plantings appropriate for the mostly shady area of my backyard. Andrew provided a comprehensive estimate that was complete with plant costs as well as stone and installation costs. After asking me what kinds of plants/colors I wanted, Andrew created a beautiful design. Together we made a few additions/changes and the end project is absolutely beautiful. Andrew's attention to detail is significant and he has come back to the house a number of times to check on the status of the plantings. He is coming back to the house tomorrow to provide some additional mulch appropriate for the pre-winter care of the plantings. Andrew is not the least expensive landscape designer in the book, but he is most assuredly worth every penny. He has a love for his work that is apparent and he spends as much time as you need talking about the job and the options. I would recommend him in a heartbeat to anyone needing landscape or tree trimming services.
Description of Work: A. Airoldi Tree triming and landscape design services have been performed for me over the last few years. I hired Andrew a few years ago to just trim some tree limbs, and subsequently hired him to design from scratch my back yard patio and landscaping. He provided an excellent landscape design and installed a beautiful garden.

Andrew was a pleasure to work with. When he arrived to give my estimate for the work I wanted done, he walked our property and gave his suggestions. His knowledge of trees and landscapes was very impressive. He pointed out trees to me that were dead and found that our hemlock hedge (which serves as an important screen between our yard and our neighbors) had a disease. I was so glad to have someone with such great understanding of trees find these issues that I would never have figured out on my own. He did a great job on the trees and made sure to go over all of his work with me. Andrew's knowledge, kindness and professionalism went above and beyond. We will definitely be hiring Andrew the next time we need tree work!
