GREENLEAF TREE SERVICE

It was excellent. They did it in a very timely manner, very punctual. They removed all the debris and they ground the stump. I was very happy with the result.

My experience with them was okay. It was not the best, but it was not terrible either. The firewood we got was not seasoned as advertised. We did not let them know that it was not what we had read because it was not bad enough to make an issue of, just enough that we would look out for the next time. The estimate we got I thought was good, but we got other estimates. It was all in the ball park. We have not made a decision yet which company to go with that.

From the initial contact to completion of a job that I am very satisfied with took less than a week. I assume this quick turn around was just luck since the other folks I contacted could not schedule the initial visit in that time, but this worked out very well for me. The owner of Greenleaf Tree Service agreed to a site visit the day after the initial contact. He arrived promptly and assessed the situation, and recommended trimming specific trees instead of removing them. I asked lots of questions about how effective this solution would be and he addressed each one drawing from extensive experience with tree servicing. I had focused on one area where I could see there was a problem, but he pointed out other potential issues that I hadn't considered yet. He wrote up what I considered an exceptionally reasonable quote, considering that I had expected to lose a couple of tress, and he had expanded the scope of the work to address all issues threatening the roof. He estimated that the work could be done in a few days, but had to confirm this in the office. He called back two days later and we scheduled the work so I could be there (but that wasn't required). The team arrived promptly and the owner was present to introduce them. They did the work in a few hours, cleaned up, and I'm a very satisfied customer.

Jim and his crew arrived on time. Jim has an excellent crew who worked quickly and efficiently. They removed two extremely tall trees and removed dead branches from additional trees around the yard. They clean up as they go and remove all debris. We have used Greenleaf before and will use them for our tree removal and trimming needs in the future.

Initially Jim was very nice and of course this is due to him wanting my services/money. He gave me a set price for having trees removed/stump grinded. He came out andlooked at each tree himself. He initially quoted me for a different tree and then said that that particular tree wasnt in the contract, which it was. he instead claimed that a skinny tree was the one that was included in the price. I should have taken pictures because he was wrong and clearly trying to get over. I asked him if we could split the job in half which he was ok with either way he was still getting the same pay. Anyway, both myself and my neighbors told him that one particular tree needed to have tree stump killer poured into it within 30 min of cutting it down. He said he would chop it up & pour salt into it. Not only did he not do that, but he came up with a story that he wasn't able to grind 3 of the stumps & decided on his own to grind stumps from trees that had been chopped years ago before I even moved in! Shouldnt he have known that hevwasnt able to grind them when he came out and gave me an estimate? I wrote out a check and he called me back with a horrible attitude telling me that his prices went up and that the check was incorrect Instead of politely telling me that his prices had changed. I told him that it was no big deal and that i would meet him the same day with his whopping $75 check for his price change. I also wrote on the bottom of the check that one more stump was to be grinded. he never showed up to do the job. The tree that we said would grow back if he didn't pour stump killer on it grew weeds all through my yard & through the neighbors yard! I have to go out every other day to kill the weeds. he also told me that the wood chips would dissolve, months later, they are still there! When I called him back about finishing a job in which he was paid for, he avoided every call & message and never returned any calls.. When my mom called from another number he immediately answered. I called him back and he was EXTREMELY rude and unprofessional and I would not recommend his services to anyone. He charged for services that he did not complete and did a horrible job! I saw on another website where people expressed how rude and unprofessional he is and I wish I'd saw it before using his services cause I never would have dealt with such a scammer

He was prompt in giving us an estimate and did the work fairly promptly, although he did schedule the jobs only a few days before. Since his work is dependent on the weather, it is understandable. We had two trees much taller than our house, one in the back yard inaccessible to large machines. His crew cut down the trees promptly and efficiently and left little mess. We found him friendly and accommodating. The second tree they cut up part of the second tree for our fireplace with no additional charge. The work was very good and his prices were much lower than others.

good experience. received estimate the day after i called. crew arrived promptly and worked quickly and efficiently. all work contracted for was completed. Cost was as estimated, and at winter rates so very reasonable.

I contacted the company for an estimate which was promptly received. I accepted the estimate and indicated the tree could be removed at their convenience. It was December and a dead tree didn't really stand out. They removed the tree and cleaned up after themselves. The only annoyance was while I explicitly told them I didn't really care when it was removed they didn't indicate to me when it would be removed until a day or two before.

We had a storm that swept through that caused a lot of wind damage. It made me think I should have my tree looked at. I’m thinking they were a little over-extended because of this storm. I’m sure they had a lot of calls to attend to. I called for an estimate & was told they’d come out. However, I thought I’d be contacted when they were going to come to my property or they’d at least give me a window. As it turns out they came out, did the estimate & called it back into the office. They let me know that someone had come out & I called back & got the estimate that way. I didn’t have a chance to ask any questions which I was hoping for. However, they were very courteous & gave me a lot of detail about what I needed to have done. I decided to postpone the work for several months.

I called Greenleaf Tree Service on 10/9 and left a voicemail, telling them what I needed, and requested an estimate. They called in a few days, which was fine, and an appointment was made. On the day of the scheduled appointment, they no-call and no-showed.. I called again a day or so later and left a voicemail, giving them the benefit of the doubt. They returned my call a few days later and another appointment was made, with Kathy (Cathy) apologizing, saying Jim had been sick. On the day of the appointment, again, they no-call, no-showed. I gave up on them.........but, Kathy called and apologized again (Kathy spoke to my wife). A third appointment was made.........guess what? Once again, they no-call, no-showed. As I was actually writing this review a couple of weeks ago, Kathy called and said Jim would be working in my area (Odenton) on Monday, 11/5/12, asking if I was still interested. I said I was (since I like to get three estimates and I had only two). Yes......once again, they no-call, no-showed. Before I allow them on my property, I would cut the trees down with a kitchen knife myself. There are too many tree services out there to deal with. I have never dealt with such an unprofessional company. Kevin Kane

During Friday night's "microburst" storm, here in Cheverly, a very large oak tree planted just a few feet from our carport started to split into two, with half of the trunk aiming toward the roof of our carport, the other half leaning toward our next door neighbor's house. We called Jim Wimer of Greenleaf Tree Service - we had previously hired his company to remove two old dead/dying trees from our property when we first moved here last fall. So, luckily, we had his phone number at the ready. His crew was out here first thing Saturday morning, and they got the entire tree (which turned out to be rotting from the inside out) down safely. They returned this morning to finish hauling away the trunk and debris. We are so grateful to these guys for their speedy, safe and professional work. http://greenleaf-treeservice.com/ Jim is a certified arborist, and he is licensed by the state and insured. We recommend them highly.

The crew was punctual and professional. The work area was cleared and cleaned including replacing the fence section. The entire job from start to cleanup took less than 3 hours.

See previous comments regarding unresponsiveness.

I left a message on 9/18/2011 requesting an estimate to have several trees pruned. It is now 10/2/2011 and I have yet to receive a call back.

Great work and low prices, what more can I say. Jim is a super nice guy. The other quote I had from a service magic vendor was literally double the price. I felt so good about this deal, I told my wife I feel the need to give him a tip. He might take some time to call you back. Both call him and send and email.

Some of the branches were dying and were breaking off in bad weather. They trimmed the low-hanging branches and dead limbs. They were punctual and professional. They also did a great job cleaning up.

Jim's crew arrived at the agreed upon time and removed a 60 foot sycamore in less than 3 hours. They cleaned up the yard, ground the stump, and left me the wood... cut to the length I requested. The price was the same as the estimate. A very good experience.

After a little phone tag, Jim came out to give a free estimate. The estimate was clearly written and he did not pressure me at all. I called later that day to arrange a date and time for the tree removal. Our tree was removed the very next day! It was a three man team who did the job and all were friendly and professional. They completed the tree removal, stump grind and clean-up in just over an hour. We are very happy! Job well done!

Experience was first class all the way. Work was done efficiently and quickly. Would recommend this company/person to anyone.

The whole experience was positive. They were quick to come out and give an estimate, they came when they said they would and they cleaned up after themselves. They were pleasant to work with and they got the job done for what they said they would do it for.

Great work. They'll usually get back to you within a day or two of calling.

Provided estimate quickly. Showed up for work on time, removed the tree, cleaned up the site, left chopped firewood in a neat pile--all done in a matter of hours. Crew is nice and professional.

I have been using them for about 15 years and will continue to do so. They've always provided exceptional service. They do great work and clean up after themselves and I have never experienced any damage.

The experience was great. The workers were very prompt and courteous. We hired them to cut down more trees at our home and have referred them to a lot of other people.

THE COMPANY WAS RESPONSIVE WHEN I CALLED. JIM, THE OWNER, CAME RIGHT OUT AND GAVE ME AN ESTIMATE FOR THE WORK, THE DAY AFTER I CALLED. HE GAVE ME A DATE ON WHICH HE PLANNED TO DO THE WORK AND STUCK TO IT. NO SIGNED CONTRACT WAS NECESSARY. ONCE I GAVE HIM THE OKAY, HE PERFORMED THE NECESSARY WORK, AND COLLECTED FOR IT AFTER I WAS SATISFIED THAT IT HAD BEEN DONE PROPERLY. NEEDLESS TO SAY, HE DID AN EXCELLENT JOB.
