Hathaway removed two trees for my neighbor across the street. The process took two days. During the process, Hathaway used my driveway to park their vehicles. If they had just been turning around or using it to back into my neighbor's driveway, it wouldn't have been a big deal. But they parked and left vehicles in my driveway (see photos). I was especially miffed at the red truck because I was expecting visitors while he was parked there, completely blocking my driveway, and my visitors couldn't get into my driveway. I found this to be incredibly unprofessional and disrespectful.

A+ service.
Description of Work: We had an old, beautiful maple in our front yard that, for all the 25 years we've lived in the home, had been leaning . . . toward the house. I noticed what appeared to be a crack this past summer so we got an opinion from a very respected tree company in Rochester. They said the tree was fine and we could fertilize it. Decided we needed another opinion and sure glad we got it. Turns out the tree had major rot at the base, where the leaning portion was supported. Rick from Hathaway took it down very skillfully and they came back to take out the stump and then provided us with black dirt as well.

Description of Work: I received a notice from the city that trees at the back of my lot were encroaching on the sidewalk and that these needed to be trimmed back within 5 days. I also had other trees that I wanted trimmed. I called Hathaway and someone came the next day to provide an estimate. They had planned to do the work a couple days later but actually performed the work the next day. They did an excellent job and cleaned up all the trees/debris. I thought the cost was very reasonable too. I would recommend Hathaway.

They did an excellent job cutting down all the seriously damaged trees and removing fallen limbs in about 4 hours. All of the debris was collected and piled at side of street. Thefollowing morning their large debris hauler arrived and removed all the material. No unexpected damage and their clean up was excellent, all at a fair price.
Description of Work: Responded with reasonable and best bid received soon after an unexpected, late winter storm. Because of more urgent or higher priority jobs, this work was done a week later which was fine with that understanding. This was all acknowledged up front

They did a great job, and were very good with their cleanup and were very safe. They arrived on time and did what they needed to do. Their prices were about the same as other companies.

Estimate not done when promised, service was delivered much later than promised. I was home when they came, and I found them cutting things we had not discussed--which they explained was part of their service and most customers wanted them to do that! But the worst thing was, they removed the wrong tree! (a large dead oak deep in the woods instead of a small dead elm at the edge of my yard). When I saw what they had done I asked them to cut it up for firewood. First they told me it was rotted, which was not true. They cut and stacked some of it for me, but then hauled away a large section without my permission. Although anyone can make a mistake, I felt that they were reckless and dishonest. A tree is irreplaceable (dead trees are habitat for animals and birds), so one would expect a highter level of care. They gave me a $25 discount for their mistakes.
Description of Work: Hired to remove a dead tree, cut a broken branch of another tree, remove a shrub, prune another small tree, remove several large buckthorn and spray stumps.
