They are efficient, fast, great price and cleaned up leaves on lawn after they removed a damaged pear tree. We will use them to plant another tree in its place and in the event that we need trimming in the future. Chris was awesome.

We were very happy with them. My wife called to have an estimate and the woman was very nice and helpful. She immediately contacted Chris and he arrived in one hour. We liked his expertise so much that we decided to go ahead and schedule a day. He brought a big crew and they did an amazing job. It took them just 5 straight hrs. They cleared out the lot, cut the tress and chipped everything. My wife asked them to trim one tree and he accommodated it too. Very nice company, very nice crew. We highly recommend them. Pedro S

Very professional, considerate, and detail oriented from estimate thru completion of the project. Entire team was very organized and focused. They were finished quickly and even did an excellent job cleaning up. Chris and his team are my heroes, thank you for taking time to reassure a nervous client.

Excellent customer service who respond on the phone with requests and while the job is being completed. I had a large stump removed and two trees trimmed. They completed the job sooner than projected. I will be contacting them again in the future for more trimming on an even larger tree.

Excellent work by LaFountain Crew!. My initial request was to remove some tree stumps and large tree like shrubs. They did a great job and now I hired them again for a bigger work that involves some expertise (e.g. avoiding power lines, kids playground, etc.) In both cases the crew was impressive in terms of how smoothly and cleanly they handled the job. Definitely would hire them and recommend them for quality of work and for reasonable pricing.

They werenâ t able to come out immediately because they were on other jobs. However, when they arrived, the LaFountain team was fast and efficient. We had a 50-60 ft tree with carpenter ants. They arrived around 8:30am and had the tree down and the site cleared in no time. Definitely recommend.

They responded promptly, quoted a fair price and did the work a few days later. The crew was very professional and I felt comfortable having them at my home. When they left, the only way you knew that they had been there was the fact that the tree was gone and I had a beautiful pile of wood chips for the flowerbeds. I would recommend them to anyone.

Chris and his crew are knowledgeable, friendly, and professional, work was excellent and efficient. They were able to take down & stump grind a large pine situated between two houses and a garage, next to a driveway & utility wires, without collateral damage and with good cleanup. Large dead branches from an ash tree were removed without incident to screen porch, neighbors garage, or garden. (Note - done in approx 2 hours). Stump removal was different day from cutting. And bonus - no problem with trimming overhanging branches from a neighbor's small trees, which are below a power line. Some contractors I contacted wouldn't do those, despite the fact that DTE already went through and did all the trimming around the lines. Contacting LaFountain can be challenging during peak periods. Initially I did not get a callback from my HomeAdvisor request, their phone mailbox was full for a few days, and they normally work/take calls M-F no weekends. If mailbox is full, you can leave messages via their website. On second attempt I was able to call and arrange visit for estimate.
