Highly unprofessional!!! Called for a quote and I cannot be present as my work does not allow set hours. When I stated others can accommodate, she said then your all set. 30 years experience has ruined things. If a phone call is handled so poorly I can only imagine what service is like.

Response from AL'S TREE SVC
We offered to accommodate you with a very flexible estimate. If you had said I am home now I may have been able to get Al right out there. I was trying to work with you, but you shut me down insisting on a drive by estimate only. Every job is unique & deserves to be looked at without questions. We will not do an estimate without someone present & that is just our policy. Unless we have already worked for you & are already familiar with your yard. We have been in business for almost 40 years now & when you tell me that you have already had a bunch of people out there who have been happy to accommodate you with just a drive by estimate what would you expect me to say? It sounds to me like you are wasting a lot of people's time & then you go on Angie to bash someone for being a professional. Good luck.

We won't be inviting him back to our property. Yeah, I was hoping for your sake that you wouldn't mention you had done work for us in the past. That tree removal was over 10 years ago and you were the cheapest quote we had. You hit our house with a log and left a large dent in our metal siding. We never brought it up because we were in the process of having the siding replaced. The tree did come down, but not as cleanly as we had hoped. As far as you assertions that my sons lied to me go, I believe my two sons over a stranger. You also annoyed us all day Saturday to get us to remove this review. I was going to, but you kept calling my husband while we were at a family wedding. This was not something he needed to deal with at such an event. Had you apologized to our boys, the job would have been yours and this review would have been gone. 9/12 The punctuality grade was N/A for "not applicable". You did no work for us, so the time you arrived does not matter. I was here 10 years ago when you damaged our house. We chose not to make an issue of it at the time because the siding was being replaced anyway. There was no storm damage to that tree. Your response says all that needs to be said about you. Denials and arrogance. My husband does not remember asking you repeatedly to do the work when you summoned him to your office that morning. What a waste of his time that was. He thought that you were wanting to apologize for your actions towards our sons. He came home very upset, and saying that he couldn't do business with someone who would treat his sons in such a manner. There was no issue between my husband and sons except perhaps in your imagination. I was with my husband as he was hounded at the wedding. You asked to speak to me and then when I got on the phone you suddenly got shy and pretended not to be able to hear me. I'm done with your games. I will not be bullied into removing my review and really couldn't care less if you are insulted. Donations are usually made as a gesture of goodwill, not a way of coercing business from people in the future. I have read Google and Yelp reviews about you that completely jive with our experience with you. You needn't worry about us ever calling you again, matter of fact we will not recommend your services to anyone we know. The only thing you can do at this point to fix this situation and maybe get the review removed like you want is to apologize to my sons, my husband and now myself for your rude, arrogant behavior. Buyer beware.
Description of Work: Called Al's for an estimate to take down a tree. He showed up with an attitude and told my son that he didn't have a big enough crane to take down the tree. After my son told him we had called a few other companies for estimates he became irate, turned around and told my son not to waste his @*@#$ time. He said he could have taken the tree down the next day. HUH? He just finished saying he couldn't do the job because he didn't have the proper equipment. We won't be doing business with someone who comes to our property with such a bad attitude and such bad language. Learn to treat people with respect and you might get a shot at the job!

Response from AL'S TREE SVC
We are both appalled & insulted by these accusations & untruths. We were hired about 10 years ago to remove a storm damaged tree that caused property damage. That was mother nature not us. We were also at your house 10 Minutes early for an estimate scheduled by your husband who said you would be there. So your responsiveness rating of an F is unfounded. Your husband was in our office with your son where he asked us over & over to please do the tree work & he apologized for the miscommunication. We declined due to an apparent family conflict in which we wish not to get involved. Subsequent to working at your home we had donated tree work to 2 churches your husband attended as well as his golf tournaments & the scouts. Please check your husbands call log. You will find only 2 incoming calls from our #. The first to request a meeting after the estimate & the second to inform your husband that his phone was pocket dialing our #.I answered the phone many times to hear only background noise. He then apologized & didn't realize. He said maybe because I was the last person he dialed. Angie's List was not mentioned till the following day. There is a lot of miscommunication & misinformation going on here. We do not wish to be further involved with the person whom created this post. She was not at the estimate in question nor at the meeting in our office. We thank Angie's List for the opportunity to reply to reviews. Most of our reviews are very good. However this review is Blatantly False! We are upset that anyone can come on to Angie's List & post Lies about a Respected business. You called us for yet another storm damaged tree & wanted the work done right away. We were prepared to do so. However it has been over 2 weeks after the fact & the tree work has not yet been completed. We are a professional Tree Service that is well respected in our community. We ask that you please do not call us again. & that hurts because we like your husband very much. Good luck.

Al's Tree Service is the best tree service for your dollar in the Raynham area. He was prompt, did what was contracted for and cleaned up well afterwards and for the best price. Can't beat him.

I am having a solar system installed, and the company installing solar was taking down the trees necessary for solar panels. These trees were small, 4 inch diameter at most. This was included in solar installation price. Called Al's to ask if I could get a quote on grinding up the branches and trees. As their web site has a heading of Brush chipping/Stump Grinding. The women I spoke with was very curt, and said I should have the Solar company grind them up. The company web site says "We Go Out On a Limb For You", obviously not, since they would not even quote coming by and just grinding up the small trees and branches. You can be rest assured that I have any tree work in the future, Al's will be the last company I will call. This is unfortunate since this is a local company.

Al's Tree service Grinds branches as we cut them. I explained to you that was the case. so many times we get calls to grind up a pile of brush that is a big mess incuding rocks and soil that ruins our machines. So sorry that you did not understand what I was trying to explain to you. We would have been happy to come out and do the tree work & clean up the mess but you stated that you already had a big pile. We are a full service tree company that is not in the buisness of cleaning up other peoples messes & ruining our machines in the process. so sorry you were not satisfied with the answer you received. I was hoping you understood. I also told you that Al could come out & look at it but you were not interested.

Crew arrived a little earlier than expected but that was okay. They were professional and quick. It took less than four hours and the trees in the backyard were at least 30 feet high. There was only one thing I didn't like was my yard did get a little tore up in one spot. The ground was still wet so it wasn't really their fault but definitely need a dry yard to work in as the truck they used was massive. They did try to fix it but I am going to need some dirt and grass seed come spring. Overall a good experience and it was fun to watch.
Description of Work: Took down two large trees in backyard and trimmed tree in front yard.

I am happy that you are a satisfied customer. You had a very dificult tree removed with a crane. It was alot of work and our guys do a great job. The damage to lawn was minimal considering all the work that was done & there was a crane in your yard.

Found Al's Tree service by the sign they posted on a neighbors front yard. Al was very quick to respond to inspect the job and write up a quote. I did not use "Al's Tree service" for this job but I would defineately consider them and give them an opportunity to bid on future work. Al's company did provide the quickest (earliest) scheduled time to do the work, but for myjob I could afford to wait and chose a slightly less expensive contractor. Unfortunately for AL he became my second choice out of four bidders. He gets a B for prfessionalism became their office fax'ed me an insurance cert which had just expired. "OOps" They did update and fax me a valid cert once I pointed that out. This is just a warning that if you should us AL you should dot your i's and cross your t's when it comes to the paperwork and details of your contract. Despite this minor snafu "Al's Tree service" will be on my call list if I ever have need of urgent tree removal that just can't wait.
Description of Work: Al's Tree service provided a quote for tree removal which included the use of a crane. His quote was "In the ball park" but on the higher side by several hundred bucks. I opted to use another contractor who quoted a lower price and further discount from combining work with a neighbor. Al did not offer the same level of discount but did offer quick and timely service. I just didn't need to pay a preimum for a speedy tree removal and could schedule it at my leisure.

The insurance company faxes out the cirtificates of insurance. I had no idea until you called. That was the first time it ever happened & I took care of it as soon as possible. We are a fully insured Professional Buisness and yes you can get a "cheeper" price from someone who isn't insured....But then we may get a frantic call from you to fix someone elses mistake. Take care & we Look forward to hearing from you again.
