Tim Mente Tree Expert

I looked at several different contractors for the job that I needed done. Tim’s bid came in under asking. When his crew had availability, Sandy scheduled for the next day for them to come in. They set up very quickly in the morning after confirming again the work I needed done. They progressed through the job seamlessly - they were very efficient and overall we’re mindful of the property which I appreciate it. I would highly recommend them to do any of your tree service or even lot clearing needs.

They did an excellent job! Cleaned up afterwards and hauled debris away.

OMG ....its was the best experience I ever had. Fast respond ,Tim attended my property in 20min to see the job and estimate the price. The price was perfect compare to any other 10 company's I reached. The job done fast, they cleaned everything and I 30min everything was done.... perfect company. I'm TOTALLY RECOMEND TREE EXPERTS LLC for all resident in Montgomery count or MD atll. Thank you.

Very well and actually did a little extra. I was very satisfied and would definitely hire again.

Sandy came out within hours of my contact and provided me with a terrific estimate. $525 total for cutting down the tree, removing it and grinding the large stump. Tim came out with his crew the very next morning and completed all the work within one hour. He was very professional and efficient. Extremely pleased. I would recommend him to everyone. A+++

IT WAS AMAZING....TIM AND HIS CREW ROLLED IN AT 9 AND BY 11 EVERY THING WAS CUT DOWN, CUT UP AND GONE...I COULD NOT HAVE GONE BETTER! I WISH I COULD MAKE HIS RATING TRIPLE AAA+, I HAVE LOT OF TREES SO I WILL BE HIRING TIM AGAIN.

The work was performed promptly and professionally. Price was very good. Will definitely hire again.

We hired Tim to remove three large branches from two trees in our backyard based on a most satisfactory experience with him in the past. He gave no indication that there would be any problems, quoted us a price that seemed reasonable and indicated that it would be to remove the branches entirely. Or at least to the point where, as he stated, it would not make the tree look terrible. When the crew arrived they seemed to have no idea what they were there for. When I told them what I had discussed with, they swore that if we removed the large branches it would kill the tree. Tim never said anything about that when we first discussed the job. But I trusted their expertise so I told them to remove as much as possible without harming the tree. The crew worked for maybe two hours and while they did cut the branch off of one tree, all they did to the other was to cut off some of the smaller branches from the larger ones. Again, they swore that they’d cut off as much as they dared without killing the tree. This was not what we had agreed upon. They also damaged several decorative lights that we had strung up around our yard and left scratches on our fence. They insisted upon the full amount we had agreed upon of $750.00 and told me that if I had any concerns I could call the office and Tim would make it right. Foolishly, I gave them the full amount. They don't take credit cards and did not provide me an invoice. When I later called the office manager, Sandra, she seemed shocked that the job we had discussed had not been completed and assured me that she would contact Tim and make sure that he stopped by and took a look. When I mentioned the damage she said that people were supposed to remove anything fragile from underneath the tree but apologized for not saying so. I didn’t hear anything after that despite several calls and texts. When I did get a hold of her she was short tempered and claimed that I had called her while she was visiting a sick friend. I apologized for interrupting her at such a crucial time and she said she would make sure Tim would get back to me. For several days I heard nothing despite several more calls and texts. When I finally did hear back from her she rather snippily texted that Tim had stopped by to take a look while we weren’t home, despite the fact that we wanted to speak with you personally about this, and that he would refund us $100. I misunderstood the text and assumed he would be stopping by. When I asked for clarification she told me that the branches on the tree were too difficult to remove due to their proximity to the fence. This was never mentioned when Tim first came to our house nor did she say anything about the crew's assurance that removing the branches would kill the tree. If that had been the case we would never have hired him simply to remove some small branches. I told Sandra that we were not satisfied with this and she rather rudely told us that we weren’t tree experts and that as such we didn’t decide what the price was. She further said that as for my wife’s “little lights” we should have had the common sense to move them and that the refund amount was not negotiable, the balance of which would be in the mail that following Friday. That was almost a week ago and we still haven’t seen any refund. Needless to say we will never use this company's services again.

It was great. They were on time. Very polite. Clean up after. Left wood chips for me. Saves money for me. They work hard. Pleasant and fun to have around.

We decided to use Tim Mente Tree Experts based on the reviews as well as the fact that he was one of the lower bids. Tim Mente's crew was amazing. They worked together as a team to cut down and remove six large trees. One tree in particular was extremely tall , probably close to 100', with branches extending over our house. They expertly brought down every single branch safely without touching the house, shed, deck, rain gutters, fence, or any other structure of ours or our neighbors. They also pruned one tree in the front to shape it up and get the branches away from the house. They stump ground and hauled away all of the debris from our yard. When they were finished, which was much faster than I thought, it was like they were never there--except for the fact that several trees were gone, everything was cleaned and taken away. Excellent job! Real professionals.

Hired to count down three large trees, grin the stumps and roots. Job was done quickly. Damaged the fence an replaced the damaged portion for us. They did miss several roots and when asked about it said that when we get the landscaping done they would be able to put soil and did over it.

Quite well job was completed in a fraction of the time estimated and very professional.

In the area for another job-knocks on all doors-i asked for it! Very dangerous working crew-damaged my roof, my driveway, broke surrounding trees. Did not leave only firewood, in fact took all usable material-after agrreeing to leave only fire wood. Cost 200 to get someone else tp haul it away! Subsequent tree care advised-all very bad cuts-all trees trimmed will die soon.Never use this service. bad bad bad

Tim M. when I called came out very quickly to give me an estimate. When I did call him he responded within 24 hours of my phone messages which amazed me because he got married and was coordinating all of this in between it. We arranged a time and he came out and did the job outstanding. I got several quotes and his was the best in Montgomery County. You would be amazed what they did in one day. I have used in the past other tree companies and Tim M. is at the top.

Overall it went really well. We had sort of a slow start there because of a miscommunication, and I could have been our fault. So, once we got everything going and scheduled. He really did an amazing job. We had quite a few quotes and he came in by far the cheapest and we are really happy and satisfied with the final job.

Very well. Amazing job to take the tree down. Good cleanup. Punctual, curteous staff. Owner came to check at end of the day. Very satisfied with price and work.

Tim provided an estimate that was fair and very competitive. His office then scheduled a date to take down the tree. They cleaned up the site and were done as planned.

They were great from beginning to end. The estimate was fast and the best one. They were easy to set an appointment with. They were punctual, professional and very good at their job. They delivered exactly what they said they would.

Tim Mente responded personally and promptly to my estimate request. He was knowledgeable and professional and provided a fair estimate. The work was scheduled promptly and the team arrived and completed the job on time. Overall service and communications were excellent and provided at a fair price.

The derecho broke some large limbs off a couple of trees. The limbs were balanced up high on other limbs -- an accident just waiting to happen. There were 2 nearly dead trees underneath this branch and a third tree that only had a few live branches way up high. We weren't sure if the third tree needed to come down along with the other two. The woman who came to look was early, found the location herself, left me phone message re what she recommended we do and why, and the cost. I was impressed, scheduled the work for some weeks ahead. When they called to see if the work could be done sooner, I jumped at it, they arrived promptly. The main man did the cutting up in the trees, then a crew cut limbs to stack or to carry to the chipper. Very professional and clearly experienced at working together. Other companies had told me this would be at least a whole day job, perhaps longer. The Tim Menthe crew was completely done in a bit over 3 hours. They left firewood stacked and some of the wood chips where I wanted it. Overall, a really great job!

The crew arrived on time, were very professional, and responsive to questions. They were totally organized and worked as a team. The job was done exactly as I wanted. These are very hard working people. Conditions were hot and humid but they accomplished all the work including cleanup in a very cheerful manner. I was highly satisfied.

Tim was extremely prompt, provided us with the best of three bids we solicited, and thoroughly prompt. Very courteous and professional. I would not hesitate to hire him again and would recommend him to anyone.

The single family houses in our neighborhood are very close together. We had three 25 year old white pines whose branches were hanging over the fence and causing problems for our neighbor. Tim Mente originally came out and gave our neighbor an estimate for trimming the branches and a second estimate to take the trees out. We had been thinking about taking the trees out because of the problems they were causing, they were too large for the lot and are the wrong kind of trees for a neighborhood like this. I also got estimates from other tree expert services. Tim Mente's estimate was very competitive ($1150)almost too good to be true. I called and talked to Sandra who was very polite and answered all my questions. While I was deciding to who to go with, Sandra called me and said Mr. Mente dropped the price to $975. His price couldn't be beat so we hired him to take the trees out. Sandra stayed in touch with me and let me know what day they were coming so I could tell the neighbors. She was always very professional and polite. I also liked that Tim Mente's Tree Expert License # was printed on the estimate paperwork. Sandra also emailed me the certificate of insurance right away when I requested it. They came the day they said they would and had the trees down in a couple of hours. They hauled everything away and spread chips where the trees had been. When they saw we could peel away the chicken wire from our fence we also had them grind the stumps for an additional charge. It was a great experience I would use them again to take out a tree.

We had a dead maple tree (about 8 inch diameter trunk) that needed removed, and it was enclosed inside a stone wall planting area. Tim easily removed the entire tree in about 20 minutes. Hauled away the entire tree, and all that was left was a little sawdust. His price was lower than other estimates we received and he was very responsive. We've used him in the past and will use him again in the future.

Tim's pricing was at least 20% below his competition. The quality of his work is excellent. We have used Tim before for another large tree, and if we ever need tree services again, we will definitely use him again.
