 + 0 moreWorking with Appalachian Arborists was a positive experience from the get-go. Will responded to my email promptly and came out within the week for an estimate. Scheduling the work was done by email. The crew - Will, Jason, and Neil - arrived on time and worked hard for 6 hours. All were courteous and professional. I am quite pleased with how the trees look, and anticipate seeing a great improvement next spring when they leaf out.
Description of Work: Removed girdling roots from 4 maple trees, shaped/thinned 6 maples, shaped 2 holly trees and several shrubs.

 + -1 moreWill came to look at my trees after one had just fallen over and narrowly missed a neighbor's house. He carefully examined all the trees and especially their roots and determined that 2 were damaged due to a soil fungus and were structurally unsound. He explained what had happened to the trees and why. He explained what to look for as signs of problems and when we should have the trees examined again. He recommended treatment of one tree and gave me the names of companies that remove trees for the 2 that have to come down. He will be returning to do the treatment, for which he quoted a reasonable price. Will's knowledge and expertise was evident. He was very reassuring regarding the condition of the remaining trees. I will definitely have him return to look at my trees on a regular basis. The oaks are very large and would do much damage if they fell.
Description of Work: Consultation on 6 large oak trees.

 + -1 moreThis is the second time Jason and his crew pruned the large Leyland Cyress hedge we have in front of our home. And they did just as good a job this time as they did the first. This is a very long Leyland hedge -- over 100 feet in length. In spite of such length, they were able to keep it totally uniform in height and appearance. They leave it looking exactly as it should. They have high standards. As others have noted, they are punctual, efficient with their time on the job, and professional in every way. I am very happy with their work and will continue using them with confidence. Others have offered to do the work for less, but I'm staying with Appalachian Arborists. I stay with people I trust, who are getting harder and harder to find every day. I feel fortunate to have found them with Appalachian Arborists. They have my highest recommendation.

Also, one very talented arborist's climbed the cherry tree and removed numerous nest of vines that had become so entangled over the years. He patiently used a string that was attached to a small metal object to trim off excess vines from some other trees. Overall, they are a very Professional team of hard working guys.

 + -1 moreWe thought they did a very professional job and we will call them again for any future tree problems.
Description of Work: We called them mainly to evaluate a very large old Maple tree that was leaning onto our property from near the roadway. Will Blozan evaluated the tree and told us that it was solid and stable and did not need to be removed. He did recommend a 30% pruning to lighten the load of this tree and some cables to stablize it. When he came back to do the work, he went high into the maple and did pruning, as well as pruning other smaller trees on our property. Will suspected the problem with one of our smaller Maple trees in the front of our house was with a stem girdling root (SGRs or 'J' Roots). This is a type of dysfunctional root that wraps around and compresses the tree stem (the trunk). When Will and Dan dug around the trunk and inspected the root they did find two SGRs. This tree was planted 5 years ago and appeared to not be growing compared to the other one planted at the same time. The tree had been incorrectly planted. They corrected the damaged root and warned that the growth of the tree may be stunted for awhile. Will also evaluated our Red Bud trees and did some pruning.

 + -1 moreThey examined my Hemlocks, said they were healthy, needle drop was natural, but a large dead branch from a nearby Maple, and diagnosed a problem with a huge flowering Poplar....They know more about trees than two other Arborists knew. And, it is obvious they care about the well being of trees..I will use them exclusively from now on. Excellent.
Description of Work: The people at this Appalachian Arborists know more about Hemlocks than any other company I spoke with...My ancient Hemlocks were dropping yellow needles and other arborists advised they were infested with mites, Adelgid (they had been treated 3 years prior)...and I was told by Will, the company owner, that Hemlocks have a natural yellowing and needle drop every few Autumns, naturally...and that is exactly what it turned out to be....I had other Arborists want to chemically treat with various chemicals, but that was not what was needed. Nothing was needed...they are healthy trees. While they were on property, at no cost, they looked at two other trees and advised future treatment for them. And, for $20 they cut out a big, dead branch from a Maple. These people really know their stuff and I intend to have them check my trees on a regular basis.

 + 0 moreThey sprayed a sixty or seventy foot ornamental cherry in my front yard. It was attacked two or three years ago by a fungus which caused the leaves to turn yellow and fall off. They sprayed it twice in a year for two years running; once in the spring and once in the fall. It cost me $360 for both spring and fall. They have also done tree trimming; cutting out dead wood. I have three ornamental cherries. They have done good work. They give me advices about how to deal with trees. They are really good. I have to call them and find out when they can come to spray this year.

 + -1 moreSeveral years ago, I received an estimate from another tree company for over $1,000, and was told that our trees would need to be treated annually. Given the cost, we gave up on the trees and planned to cut them down when they died. When the trees continued to survive, I called this company to give us an estimate. I was amazed and delighted to find out that we could save our trees for $200! Within two days of talking to Will Blozan, our trees had been treated. Blozan is very knowledgeable about the problem, and he pointed me toward scientific studies about imidocloprid to ease my environmental concerns. He and his company will check the trees later this year and check on the efficacy of the first treatment before deciding to apply another. I wish I'd called Appalachian Arborists years ago, before our hemlocks started their decline. Highly recommend this company.

Description of Work: Had Arborist look at 8 young trees (@ 20 ft. high) -- they trimmed for structure and future growth and treated 2 of the eight for yellowing of leaves and lack of growth -- these two trees were oaks -- they gave a growth treatement to the roots and greening was beginning to be seen the next day -- also told me they needed a more acid soil for best growth to continue. I will not lime grass near these two trees. -- these folks do not top trees -- they trim properly and correctly.

 + -1 moreWhen Jason came to look at the job for the estimate, he told us they had done other jobs that spanned property lines, so he was sensitive about those aspects of the planning, meeting with us and the neighbor involved. When the day came, the three person crew arrived on time and reviewed just what we wanted done before getting to work. Since some of the work was "vista pruning," one crewman came onto our deck and from there guided the one in the tree as to which branches to prune to optimize the view with least effect on the tree. The results are wonderful. They were very safety conscious and also cleaned up well before they left. We will definitely use them again.
Description of Work: Two overgrown hemlocks were removed, and pruning was done on two large maples. A small ornamental cherry was also cleaned up. An extra challenge was that the trees were on both sides of the property line. Some are ours and some a neighbor's, who graciously agreed to having the work done.

 + -1 morePretty much as described above. I was pleased with service (my trees are apparently free of the adelgids at this time). they have treated these trees on two occasions about 18 months apart, but have not contacted them lately.
Description of Work: Contacted for treatment of hemlocks on our property. They responded quickly, performed the treatment (ground injections) and the service was very good. When I ralized that three tress were not included in my initial listing, they returned and treated those trees at no additional cost.

 + -1 moreWill arrived on time and walked us through the property to evaluate which trees needed pruning. We knew some trees required pruning to improve the overall structure and Will pointed out other trees that were at risk as well. His knowledge of trees is quite amazing. None of the trees have leaves due to the season. He's able to I.D. trees by bark texture and limb formation. He was right 100% of the time. It took less that 1.5 hours to prune all the trees. After he left, we walked around to look at the trees and it was apparent that this was a good investment. Will is rare in that he has integrity and would not advise a customer to hire him for a job just to make money. I had that experience a few years ago with another company and it was costly. We will continue to use Appalachian Arborists as long as we're in the area.
Description of Work: Pruned 10-15 trees that we planted in the past 2 years.
