Description of Work: Trimmed limbs that were very large threatening. I have used them so often I am not really sure of the last time they were here, but I believe it was autumn of last year and the cost was probably around 800. Schifflett Tree Service is an absolute pleasure to deal with. It's a small family-run company, with all the kids and even a grandkid working together. I can't recommend this company higly enough.

Description of Work: The crew cut down two large damaged trees. One was a Willow, the top of which was laying on a Verizon cable/phone line. The other was a large Tulip Poplar, likely damaged by a lightning strike. Roughly two feet in diameter, the Poplar was cut into 18 inch lengths for splitting to firewood The crew also converted two large piles of tree limbs into chips for mulch. Great care was taken not to damage the lawn and the crew cleaned up the site before departing. Mr. Shifflett was both professional and personable.

Description of Work: They were contracted to remove a large tulip poplar. The location required the sections to be removed via a crane over top of the house. They have had a great deal of experience with this type of work and I fully trusted them. They had done other tree work for us in prior years as well.

Mr. Shifflett came to our house the day before the work was done, and did a walk around the yard, I believe he was planning the workflow for the workday. When the team arrived the day of the job, they quickly went to work and did everything in four hours, except to grind down one stump. They explained that the ground was too wet (it rained for a couple of days before the job) to grind that stump and that they would be back by the end of the week to finish the job. They came as promised, ground the remaining stump down in the morning, and didn't even wake up my wife! On the job day, they also took up leaves that were on the ground. Friendly, professional, do what they promise, fair price. What more can anyone ask for?
Description of Work: Removed three trees from our property, ground the stumps. They also trimmed two additional trees, and removed all wood and limbs from the work.

Personnel were professional and did work promptly. Friendly staff to talk to on the phone. Did a nice job of cleaning-up after the trees were taken down. Will leave trees as firewood, if needed, or will provide free raw mulch.
Description of Work: Shifflett's ground-out 4 stumps for me and removed one tree. Also cut down the remainder of a tree previously damaged by a storm and pruned 2 trees that had low branches touching my roof.

He came out when he said he would and walked around my property to look over the job. He was very professional. I am just not sure if his way is the way I want to go.
Description of Work: He said that I should do all of the work at one time, instead of breaking the jobs up for now and in the fall.

They arrived very promptly and were knowledgable but they wanted $3,500 to take down one tree (which was very close to the woods so they could just roll the wood into the woods) and clean up about 5 others damaged but no need to take them down just clearing broken and hanging branches. When they arrived we walked the property and he reviewed the work and told me that he could do it the next day if the coming storm was not bad but the cost was $3,500. Now I have had trees taken down before and this was very high. In hurricane Isabelle we had 6 trees go down with root balls in the air and it was less than $2,000 for that job so I was very surprised and told him I would have to get back to him. As it turned out I got someone to do a great job for $600
Description of Work: During the storms that we have had recently several very large trees were damaged and one was leaning very badly. I called the company because they are close to me and they have a good rep on Angie's list.

We needed stumps removed for a fence, that was being installed in the next two days. Due to machine problems, Davey Tree let me know their grinder was still in the shop. I needed a very fast turn around other wise, we couldn't finish out fence. Shifflett came out very early the next morning to take a look, I handed them a check, and by that evening the stumps were gone! It was a little more expensive than what Davey Tree was charging, but they also removed 3 trees and perhaps there was some deal in Davey's pricing.
Description of Work: Removal of 4 tree stumps.
