Description of Work: Korte has done a lot of work for us at our personal home as well as our rental properties. They always do a great job. They have reasonable pricing and offer a lot of expertise when it comes to removing or trimming of trees. They are great to work with and I will definitely call them in the future.

Description of Work: The crew for Korte Tree Service removed two small dead trees and trimmed a variety of other limbs and branches. They did a great job and we felt the price was great. The only downsides were related to timing - with the recent storms, they were clearly getting a lot of business and it took a while to get to our job. When they did, rather than schedule it in advance, they showed up at 7:20 a.m. and knocked on the door (we're not morning people). But, this is a small price to pay for great professional service at a really good price, so I still highly recommend Korte and would use them again.

Description of Work: They came to my house the day after I called. The owner took a look around and gave me a reasonable price of 350 to take down a very large tree in the front yard. After I was given the quote I asked him if they could cut a few dead branches out of the tree next to it and take out a bush in the backyard and haul away some large limbs that had come down off another tree in the backyard. Sure, no problem. What was the additional price? Nothing. |The crew was remarkable. The foreman knew exactly what he was doing and he was extremely polite. The crew of 3 additional men worked as a TEAM! It was refreshing to see them work quickly and efficiently. They all knew what to do and it was seamless. I would absolutely use them again, and have already referred them to 2 friends! Thank you~I APPRECIATE your service!

Description of Work: The Korte team consisted of a foreman, who in my opinion was very concise and lead his 3 man team very well! AWESOME TEAMWORK! They anticipated each other's next move and did not stop until the work was complete. All in all they took down the maple tree, ground the stump, trimmed a large oak tree that had a few dead branches. They also went to backyard and cut down a large bush and hauled away the debris AND hauled away some pine branches that were too large for me to deal with! I would definitely hire them again and refer them! Thank you!

Absolutely wonderful!
Description of Work: Removal of 2 very large semi living trees from our small backyard. They had to take down a portion of our fence and access was gained through our neighbors yard (with permission). A skylift was brought in and placed in our yard to gain access to the tree tops. Once the trees were down the limbs and trunks were taken by skid loader to awaiting chipper shredder and made into mulch. These young men were very professional, respectable and thorough. When they were done the fence was replaced and they were on their way. Other than the fact the trees were gone one would not have known they were here. Nothing was out of place. The tree parts fell away from another foliage, fencing, etc. A perfect job. We are so happy with them and would recommend them to friends and family.

Description of Work: called to get estimate on several trees to be removed. did not go with him previous year because of price and he told me he didn't want to come out and didn't want my-business because I had turned down bid last year. cocky and egotistical. Would never recommend him to anyone .does he know the meaning of the word bid?

Response from korte Tree Care
Estimates are free but we have to be able to refuse to give some. We had bid on work for this client twice in the past few years. She missed the first appointment and I didn't hear back from her that year. I was unwilling to risk another 2 hours. Her property is over 20 miles away from the shop and out in the country. We've had to change and shrink our territory with high fuel prices. As I explained this she demanded an estimate. I recommended other people she could call. My tone was polite but naturally she was upset that she couldn't have what she wanted. I'd like to help everyone out but there is a limit to what we can do. People take this personally and sometimes become offended but it isn't meant that way. We've had to learn to say no to some things so we can do our main business well. We're polite to everyone but are not obligated to give any estimate, not out of cockiness or egotism but out of necessity. This is a family business and when someone is rude or unreasonable I usually send them somewhere else so their behavior doesn't affect all of us. We don't ask for or demand anything of anyone and we ask for the same courtesy in return. If we can help you we will.

We would recommend him. He is an arborist, and he was able to tell us a lot more about the particular trees that we have in our yard and recommend to us with regard to a couple that we had that were looking kind of sick. We didn’t really know exactly what was going on with them. He was able to give us more information about that and tell us what we needed to do to make sure as a homeowner we don’t want any limbs or anything like that coming near our roof and things like that. He definitely knows what he is doing. He is very knowledgeable, very personable, and easygoing. He came out whenever we needed him to and that kind of thing. We did do a little searching around, and he was the most reasonable and had the most knowledge. There were a couple of other places that would be a little bit cheaper, but they were about tearing up the trees and cutting down. He was more about saving our trees and that kind of thing. We would definitely use him again in the future.

Day 1-call for estimate. Day 2-Josh came by and called with an estimate. Day 3-Josh shows up exactly on time with one assistant (Eric). They move their boom into position behind the house. Take down the sick tree. Gone in 40 min. Perfect service. Josh asked Eric to trim another tree while Josh worked up in the gondola. No charge for this extra work. Friendly, prompt, professional. What else can you ask? Well, good price, I suppose, and he delivered that too. Highly recommended.

I had a large dead elm tree right next to my house. Every other tree removal service quotes were above eleven hundred dollars. This company was lower in price. The actual price I paid was cheaper than what he quoted. They were professional and quick. They cleaned up after themselves and any scraps that had fallen off the tree was cleaned up. i would use them again and highly recommend them.

I called for an estimate and Josh came out the next "estimating day". Very punctual and friendly; the estimate seemed reasonable. Busy time of year but they were able to come a couple of weeks later and do the work. Well done. Josh called me afterwards to explain a few things that he thought might be of concern to me which was nice. And the things he mentioned were no big deal to me. Very professional.

We had a couple of trees that we thought needed to come down but we weren't really sure so they came out. They looked at the trees and said they definitely needed to come down. They also looked at some other trees in our yard and gave my husband some more information on them. They said they were okay. They did it all really quickly and they were out the next day.

Perfect. To get the estimated, we did a walk through and discussed which trees should be removed, whether the trunks could be cut into fireplace size and left, approximate timeline to complete the project. When we agreed on the project, they called a couple of days ahead to confirm. When we returned and saw the completed project, the entire area was clean and debris free. Yes, I would recommend them and will use them in the future.

Went very well. Went to work with a tree in the morning, came home and the tree was gone.
Description of Work: Removed tree and stump. Cost was half of other estimates. Were prompt, efficient with no damage to power lines. With stump removal they do not dig out the hole and replace the dirt as some other services would (we didn't care).

We also offer removal of the stump grinding mulch and replacement with topsoil and seed for an additional charge if the customer requests it.

The owner, Josh, came out and gave me a written estimate. I had estimates from another highly recommended company, buy Josh was cheaper and also highly recommended, so I gave him a shot. Josh is a certfied arborist, which was one thing I was looking for. Also, he was honest about telling me that some of things I wanted done wasn't going to have the affect I wanted (e.g., growing grass under a big tree). This saved me money from having unnecessary things done or giving me more ressonable expectations. Once I gave him the OK on that, they came out and did the work. They worked fast and cleaned up after themselves. Josh was good about answering any questions I had and giving me advice. Would definitely use again.
Description of Work: Removed small dead tree, trimmed lower 15 ft of branches on many trees, lots of miscellaneous work.
