They did a wonderful job and I was very pleased with their work. They were extremely efficient and professional. I had Bermuda grass problem for a long time and was not able to remove it. However, they removed it very quickly and I do not have that problem anymore. There price was very reasonable.
Description of Work: I hired them to remove Bermuda grass.

They came right in and got the tree down. They were absolutely wonderful. Because of our situation, they were out within two to three days. The people that did the work were very pleasant and professional. They did an excellent job taking the tree down, and their prices were extremely reasonable for what they did. They were very careful; you wouldn't have even known they were here. They did a great job cleaning up after themselves. They all have very pleasing personalities. I would really like to give them an A+! It was a very difficult job because the tree was very close to our home. They didn't complain. They just jumped right in and did the work. They walked the extra mile for us.
Description of Work: They took a tree down for us. They also pruned a couple of trees for us.

Will not use them and I thought it was extremely unprofessional to put a sign in my yard when I hadn't even spoken to them in person or hired them.
Description of Work: All I did was fill out the form on their website for a quote for seasonal fertilization, grub control, and aeration. They came by two days later and put a quote on my door and stuck a sign in my lawn. Putting the sign in my yard really upset me and my wife because that is like telling my neighbors that I use there service and all I did was ask for a quote. I didn't talk to anyone from the company either before or after the request that I made on their website. They still haven't contacted me a week later to even follow up on the quote to see if I want to use them and all of the other companies I contacted had at least followed up to make sure that I received the quote. Also their quote was about 20% higher than any other quote that I received. I had never heard anything bad about them before but my experience was awful and I will not use them.

I called Ryans initially to have four trees trimmed. Tom came out the same day to leave the quote, & it was much lower than I expected. They arrived within the time frame they gave me. Two guys trimmed the two tall trees in the front yard while another trimmed the two crabapple trees in the backyard. The work was first rate. They did such a good job trimming the trees and cleaning up after themselves, I called the next day to have them give me a quote to remove all the bushes and roots from around our home's foundation and to trim the remaining two trees in the backyard. The quote was again left that same day, the price for that work was lower than expected & was done withing the time frame given. I recommend them highly. They were prompt, professional, and left the yard looking great.
Description of Work: Six trees were trimmed and approximately ten bushes/roots were removed from our yard.

Everything was great. They do my other lawn treatments as well so I've dealt with them before. They're always on time, and get everything gets done quickly as well. They gave me a written plan of what they were going to do just in case I wasn't there when they were doing work.
Description of Work: They trimmed two big trees in my front yard, and totally removed a 15' smaller tree from the front yard as well.

Was responsive to my bid request. Evaluated other trees on property and recommended a feeding schedule for a Japanese maple. Their office scheduled the appointment and service the same week. I was not present for the removal, but the trees were cut low to the ground and cleaned up nicely. They even removed some yard debris that I had nearby from my own pruning. They were local and also the lowest of four bids that I requested (all from Angie's List).
Description of Work: They provided an estimate, was the low bid and removed 2 bald cypress trees that were planted too close to the house and needed to be removed.

He hardly put anything down it seemed like. Our yard looked like the devil. It looked worse after the service was done then before. Whoever was in charge didn't apply the right stuff.
Description of Work: Generally, they were suppose to do maintenance and fertilize and do weed control.

It was absolutely excellent! I called and asked for an estimate. Within one day, I had a very detailed, reasonable estimate left in my door. When I called back, I indicated that there was some additional work I wanted to see about, so they arranged to come at a specific time when I would be home. They arrived right on time, explained what they needed to do to the damaged tree, and then discussed with me pruning of three additional trees that were encroaching on my house but that I didn't want to have removed. Both of the service people were polite, well-dressed, and efficient. There was absolutely no pressure to have more done than what I asked, and they only charged me an additional $20 for pruning the three extra trees. It was very refreshing to have someone come on time, do what they said they would do for the price quoted. The main service person was even able to give me the names of several of my trees which I had been trying to figure since I moved into the house 10 years ago!
Description of Work: Removal of downed portion of a large tree that was blown over in the recent thunderstorms. Pruning of three additional trees.

I was told they would need to be aggressive on the pruning in order to raise the canopy to five feet above the ground but when they were finished it looked great. The tree had a much better shape and look. There were three of them who came out for the job and it went smoothly and quickly. Missed a couple of twigs on the clean-up but overall did a great job.
Description of Work: Prune a redbud tree. Remove two low large limbs to raise canopy. Remove smaller limbs and rubbing and crossing limbs and deadwood.

Tom DePaepe was very courteous and prompt. He responded to my first call and kept me informed about when the work would be done. He called to let me know about a schedule change and did the work just as I asked it to be done. Clean up was very good and except for the trees being trimmed you could hardly tell they had been here.
Description of Work: Remove dead wood and lower limbs from one pin oak in the front yard. Removed lower limbs from two sweet gum trees in back yard and installed a cable brace on one of them. They also cut off the end of a brace bolt which had been left by another tree company when work was done several years ago.

Though we did not choose them for this particular project, the estimate process was as good as it could be. We were able to request the estimate through their website. A representative came out the next day and left a very detailed estimate in the door. The price was quite higher than the others we received, so we had to go elsewhere.
Description of Work: We asked for an estimate to renovate our yard, including removing problem grass, aerating and over seeding.

Mark came by the day after I sent a request to their site. He examined the situation with me and explained what they would do. He was very easy to talk to and seemed very knowledgeable. I agreed to have them do the work, and they estimated it would be two weeks before they could get to it. They would take care of everything, not only the cleanup, but calling KCPL to drop the line. After about two weeks, I called to see if they had forgotten me. Seems they were waiting for KCPL, and they came the following week, about three weeks after the initial contact. When I came home that day, I found they'd done the work and cleaned up well. I'm unhappy with what they did to my pin oak, which was not the one causing the problem with the power line, while the Mulberry looks fine. On the pin oak, the branch nearest the power line was cut off about six inches from it. Far more branches than expected were cut back to the trunk, above and below, leaving a truly bizarre appearance. I was disappointed.
Description of Work: They trimmed two trees for me. My power, cable, and phone lines were going through each tree, and one large limb (on the one tree I didn't really care about, a Mulberry) was noticeably leaning on the power cable. There was what I considered a future but not imminent risk from the other tree, a pin oak which I clearly described to Mark as my only good tree.

The Ryan representative was very polite, but I chose not to use their service because I wanted one thing done and thought that I had made that clear. I felt like I had gotten a hard sell to make a long term and expensive commitment to Ryan Lawn. Although I checked that I would not hire this company because of Angies List's good reports of the actual work that they do, I may reconsider at some later date.
Description of Work: I asked for and received an estimate from Ryan Lawn to kill my grass, which I had been told would be from $50 to $100. I got an estimate that totaled 3 or 4 times that amount for a bunch of services they said I really should have.
