Elijah and his crew did a great job, they dropped a large dead tree exactly right and didn't kill any of my plants that were directly under it. They were very fast and efficient and also did it for a great price. I would recommend them and would hire again. Thanks!

Elijah was quick to respond to our call and came within a few hours to personally discuss the job. He was very knowledgeable and very professional at all times. He knew the concerns with each type of tree we had and could ***** them quickly. He considered their health, aesthetic appearance, safety on our property, and cost in his recommendations. He presented these in terms of shorter and longer-term planning according to our budget and goals. He gave us a clear written estimate quickly and included the various options we had discussed. He also had several insights that were very helpful with respect to the longer-term care of our trees and property. He was never pushy, though, just very knowledgeable and considerate. Then, he called ahead and worked efficiently when he came. All work was completed on an agreeable timeline despite a storm coming through that had given him many calls to prioritize after we first talked. When he finished he cleaned everything up beautifully. The total cost even with some extra work was very reasonable. We were very pleased with Elija's Tree Care service!
Description of Work: Tree trimming, branch down on roof, removal of other overhanging branches causing a potential safety hazard, estimates for future work including stump grinding and treatment for disease prevention.

Elijah was very accommodating for setting up an estimate as well as doing the work on a shorter time line. All of the work was completed by himself in one day. He was by far the lowest bid and we were very happy with his service. Would definitely recommend and use again.
Description of Work: Removed a smaller tree and a larger tree (ground the stump for the latter) and removed a very tall arborvitae shrub.

The work was done professionally and as we had agreed upon was spread out over a few months in order to perform the services at the optimal time for the health of the various trees. Elijah's prices were extremely competitive with other providers who did not seem to have the same concerns over what was really best for the trees' health.
Description of Work: Elijah knows his trees. He not only does great work but he cares about the health of the trees he is working on. He made specific recommendations on the timing for trimming my various varieties of trees and what he felt really needed to be done. Elijah recommended that I not perform certain expensive services that other tree care providers had suggested because it was not in the long term best interests of the tree's health. This saved me hundreds of dollars and will lead to healthier trees in the long run. Elijah will be my go to tree care guy going forward.

It was great - I was so thankful! He carefully removed the branch while working around the power lines and cleaned up afterwards, including hauling the branch away.
Description of Work: I called Elijah at 3:45 pm on a Saturday when I noticed a very large branch on my maple tree was in danger of falling on my power lines. Within an hour of my calling, he had come not only to estimate the job, but also completed the work, removing the dead branch.

Excellent. Elijah was able to come for an estimate the next day from when I called. It's obvious he's very knowledgeable about what he does, and his assessment of what needed to be done and the information he provided were very good. Elijah explained what he felt needed to be done and why, and he got my sign-off on it. I wasn't home when the actual service was done, but except for the fact that the trees and branches were trimmed as he said he'd do, I'd have never known his crew had been there...in other words, the clean up was excellent.
Description of Work: Trimmed a front maple tree that had sustained wind damage/broken limbs and removed a large branch that was broken off but lodged in another branch. Trimmed tree in the backyard that was interfering with cables running from the house.

Elijah set-up to come out Sunday AM between 10 - noon. Changed plans to ensure that I was available to meet him. No one from his crew arrived. I called at noon and asked if there was a miscommunication. He stated that due to upcoming weather his schedule had changed and he and quot;forgotand quot; to notify me. Very unprofessional. Will certainly not use his service.
Description of Work: Requested that provider come out and give an estimate for tree trimming services.

Response from Elijah’s Tree Care
When you originally called for the estimate several days before I said I would call you after 10 AM to schedule the estimate for that Sunday. You called me before I could call you that day and were upset because I told you I did not have time for the estimate. Our equipment was not for the snow storm so it was an emergency situation for us. I explained it all to you that Sunday morning when you called and you tried to insist Id drop what I was doing to come give you a estimate. I am sorry you had cancelled plans and I couldn't make it that day. I wish I would have known sooner I couldn't make the estimate, I am sorry for that.

The price was very comparable to other tree services and the job was done quickly. We also got a bid for tree removal (which we ended up not removing), but his price WAS the best and he was extremely knowledgable about the trees in out yard!

Elijah knows what he is doing, does it well, and his prices are much better than the larger sevices. He has been triming and caring for our trees for several years. When our shade producing elm was taken down by the city, we asked Elijah to plant the biggest, fasting growing shade tree suitable for the site. He picked a tree much larger than the replacement trees Minneapolis uses. He also recommended a special enriched compost to help it grow. It seems to have nearly doubled in size ove rthe past year. Can't say enough good things about his work.

Elijah takes great care and pride in his work, and works hard to deliver what's best for the customer. I have a tree with some kind of fungus. One day a door-to-door guy came up, and I asked him for his opinion. He said not to even bother, just take it down. This tree is not only really pretty and fragrant, but it's my son's favorite tree in the yard; removal is our last resort. So I called Elijah. When he heard how important it is to us to save the tree, he came up with several ideas to treat it and extend its life. That was over a year ago. So far so good!
Description of Work: I've been a customer of Elijah's for years now, and finally doing a much-deserved review. Work has included basic tree care/trimming, treatment, and retrieving my cat from a tree in which she had been stuck for nearly 48 hours (seriously).

After getting a number of estimates for the work, we chose Elijah's Tree Service because of Elijah's attention to detail in the quote, the reasonableness of the estimate, and Elijah's overall knowledge of tree health and care. The work order included the pruning of a number of trees, removal of a tree that had come down in a storm, and removal of other nuisance trees and old stumps. He was also willing to remove a chain link fence and a wood fence on the property as well as underbrush. This was no easy task; there were a number of trees growing through the chain link fence and one actually grew around one of the posts. Elijah was prompt in arriving for an estimate and the job. He actually worked well into the evening hours, sometimes even after sunset, so as not to leave branches and debris around (even though he was going to back the following day). The work and cleanup were done to our satisfaction, and Elijah was more than happy to answer any of our questions throughout the four days that he was here. We would hire Elijah and his company again without reservation!
Description of Work: Removal of a tree that came down in a storm. Removal of two large trees and their stumps. Removal of old stumps and nuisance trees on the property. Removal of a chain link fence, a wood fence, and the underbrush and nuisance trees that grew around these areas. Spreading of the wood chips from the stump grinding. Chipping and disposal of all removed trees. Disposal of the fencing material and concrete foundations. Pruning of several mature trees on the property. Consultation on tree care and landscaping of opened areas.

Good Experience I would hire him again.
Description of Work: I had him cut down a large Elm that had Dutch Elm disease. He also ground the stump. I had him come back a second time and grind roots and there was no additonal charge. I wanted the tree removed immediately so the other Elms in the yard would not be affected by the disease from the initial tree in question. He came and removed the tree within a couple days after I gave him the job. He got in trouble with my wife in that he dropped some of the branches on her flower beds. However he apologized and there was little damage to the flowers. In summation, the work was done promptly and the cleanup was good.

Tree was fairly large and the yard fairly small, but Elijah and his crew had it down and gone in a few hours. Our yard isn't the largest and there were a few hazards (power lines, phone lines, garage) but they did a great job in making sure nothing was damaged.

A storm with heavy rain and lightning downed an 80-foot cottonwood tree in my backyard. The tree brought down utility lines in the neighborhood, destroyed my storage shed, and damaged my chain link fence. After getting 4 estimates, I chose this company. (I had used them 3 years ago to remove two huge, downed trees in my yard.) Elijah and his crew got started right away on a messy job in hot, humid weather. They were easy to work with, knowledgeable, and respectful. I was impressed that they removed enormous logs by hand, instead of using a bobcat, to protect my lawn from damage. I had hoped to get an elm tree pruned too but was willing to let that wait until Elijah's schedule eases up.
Description of Work: Cut down and hauled away a fallen cottonwood tree and other storm debris, ground the stump, and dismantled and hauled away a storm-damaged storage shed.
