The company was very responsive to my needs and were very professional. They removed the tree and all the limbs that had fallen down prior. The crew kept me informed on the progress and even ground down the stump.

Mr. Blight, the owner/manager of this company sets high standards for his business and it always shows. What I really like about this company is that Mr. Blight is a consummate professional and won't leave a job until the customer is satisfied - and the work is performed to the expected standard. I've used these guys before, and I will use them again, without question. They come to a job with right number of people and the right equipment to get the job done. Although they're a bit pricey, the customer gets a high level of quality for what they do. They expertly removed two trees for me....one of which was in a swampy area and was a threat to nearby buildings and vehicles should it fall. They ground numerous stumps for me, to standard, and they cleaned up the debris when they were finished. I will use this company again, and I would encourage others to use them. They have the right people and the right equipment to get difficult and dangerous tree maintenance done to homeowner's expectations.

They were great; very professional service and I think the price was reflected accordingly. I could get someone cheaper to come and cut down or remove trees but I wanted someone who actually knew what they were doing so if they broke something and they could fix it. They were good and showed up exactly when they were going to show up. They were cordial and they had a whole team of guys so it did not take all day. They were in and out of here soon. We were very happy with the service. They were pretty good and to get that kind of work done at that level of professionalism, it is going to cost money.

Everything went very well. Mr. Blight came out and gave me an estimate of which I thought was a little pricey, but the price is so worth it. The work performance and results surpassed my expectations. Staff was very professional, polite, and friendly. I used this company last year to remove a very large maple tree in my yard and was extremely satisfied with the work done. This company will always be first on my list for tree work to be done. I highly recommend this company. They have proven to be reliable, honest, and very hard workers.

I was able to schedule the tree removal the day I wanted, the owner scheduled me in for the first stop that morning. When I showed up at the agreed time, the whole crew was there ready to start, with multiple vehicles and equipment parked along the street. The tree was a large pine that split into several trunks and was looking like it was ready to fall over onto the house. As complex as the job was, they took care of it inside of an hour, to include clean up. All in all, it was an outstanding job.

Of 5 firms I called to remove some trees, he was the ONLY one that was prompt in answering my calls and came out to give me a quote. Although the price seemed a bit high, after seeing what they took out, it was reasonable after all. He provided a written estimate with cost and what they would do, but was very evasive on setting a specific date for removal. We agreed that it would be within 2 weeks, and he surprised me by showing up at the end of the week. A call would have been nice to warn me he was on the way, but it worked out OK. His crew was hard working and careful to make sure none of the trees ended up on my house or fence. I did not have them remove the stumps as the termites and other bugs will reduce the stumps to dust in a couple of years, and the trees were on a side lot, not in the main yard. All of the trees were removed and all the debris cleaned up as requested. I could not have asked for a better job to be done. EXCELLENT SERVICE!!!!

There was nothing that I did not like, but the charge could have been a little bit less. On the other hand, I was willing to pay that amount to get the job done. I would definitely use them again in the future.

Overall, I am pleased with all of the trimming that was done; the crew was courteous and professional. They were as gentle as they could be with our existing plants/garden. Now for my problem: Cost. I have had tree work like this done before for our property in New Jersey and was shocked with the final bill for this provider’s services. I paid the bill but emailed the owner about a few concerns. Michael (the owner) agreed to meet me and discuss the bill. At first I thought the meeting would go well, but I was insulted by how he tried to show me his fuel credit card bills, a recent HVAC service that he had performed (trip charge, diagnostic charge etc.), insurance costs, etc... GOT IT, BUSINESS is expensive. 7 men at $65 per hour = $7.58 per minute. First, there was about an hour and 15 minute period where 4 of the men (two tree climbers and helpers) were minimally working, mostly standing around waiting on the bucket truck to be done so they could do the final cleanup/chipping. When I queried about why I was paying $65 an hour each for 4 men standing around, I was not given a satisfactory answer. He gave me a wishy-washy excuse that this was built into the price and he should be charging more. If I would have comprehended better that in fact I was being charged for them to be standing around, I would have had them trim the hedges or work on more trees in the back. Second, the rounding of the times was in their favor. My phone clock said 1103 when they were done, the main person on the job-site said he called and said they were done at 1110, my final bill said 1115. I know this might be trivial about minutes... but we are talking about $7.58 a minute (10 minutes = $75.80). He said that rounding like this was normal. Would I recommend his services to a friend? No, but if they insisted, it would be with caution due to cost. Will I use their services in the future? No… thought that I might, but after being belittled by the owner after discussing our bill, I would not. Bottom Line: I believe that when I do not get a proper estimate or even "rough" estimate I should take some blame as well, chalk it up to "stupid tax". I know that he will stand by his statement that you can't give a solid estimate for this type of job, but I should have asked "how many men?" and "roughly how long should this job take?" Certainly with his 20 years of experience and being a ‘Certified Arborist’, he should have been able to answer those questions. Unfortunately, with a busy schedule and newborn, I did not do my due-diligence and paid for it.

Outstanding! Very professional and courteous. We had 5 huge trees and 2 small trees removed. Michael (the owner) came out and gave us a quote, which was very reasonable and scheduled the day for the tree removal. Jay and his team were great. As a follow-up to the work done, Jay called later that same evening to ensure we were happy with the work done. They worked very fast and when they finished the job site was clean. I would recommend them to anyone considering tree removal.

Very good, very prompt, professional service. Mr. Blight took a chance by sending his crew on the morning we'd agreed upon even with the threat of rain. We wanted the job done before we left for our vacation; didn't want to have to be called back after arriving at the beach with a tree fallen on the house. EXCEPTIONAL service!
Description of Work: Removed two 25' Leyland Cypress trees that were too close to the house, one was leaning toward the house. Also removed some lower limbs to open up the landscape.

He came over the house a couple of times and he is phenomenal. His crew is absolutely awesome. Actually, one of the oak trees leaned over our neighbor’s garage so it was a tricky removal. They hooded up ropes, they have some stuff swinging down and it was pretty amazing to watch on how they put the tree down. They came and they were phenomenal. They were so nice and on time. His whole crew was super courteous. My wife actually said that our yard looked better than it was before they got here. They cleaned and you would never know that they were even here except for the trees that they put on the ground, rigged and cleaned everything up and it was really a good job. I actually recommended them to other people.

I called for an estimate, they came out the next day. The gentleman went trhough each tree in my yard making recommendations and educating me on the health of my trees. I was given an estimate on site. The turnaround time was within a week, however shortly after he left I got a phone call that said they could come now if I wanted it done today...It was fantastic!! They spent about 2 hours in my yard. Left my yard cleaner than they found it and then walked through with me to insure I was satisfied. Very professional, speedy and knowledgable service!

A large crew of men arrived early in the morning and reviewed with me the work that was to take place. Then, they immediately starting working and had both trees cut down, stumps ground, and even raked up all the leaves that had fallen during the tree removal. Both yards look wonderful and they were finished by lunchtime. Amazing!! I'll definitely use them again.

Excellent. The owner came out and gave us an estimate in the morning and the crew started the work that afternoon. Most of the trees were at the back fence line and they were very careful to take down the trees without damaging the fence or getting any debris in our neighbors yard. They carefully worked around our other trees and plantings. The first day, they worked until about 8:00PM. They put in a full second day. At the end of the second day, they spent about one and a half hours putting the fence sections back in place. They made sure the fence was back in the original condition before they left. All the workers were pleasant and polite and worked hard to get the job done in a reasonable amount of time.
Description of Work: Had 4 Bradford Pear trees and 1 maple tree removed; also removed a large Bradford pear tree stump and two very large limbs from a Pine tree. Ground all the stumps and removed the excess mulch. Cleaned up and removed all debris. They had to take apart a fence to get the truck into the yard and the returned the fence to the original condition when they were done.

He gave me a deal since he was already working in the neighborhood after the storm. He cleaned up everything. My yard was spotless. He was fabulous. They were very timely.

The service was performed as advertised. The workers were professional, efficient, and effective in felling the trees in a very safe manner. Although several trees were close to two homes and in between fences, the team expertly measured and ensured the trees would fall in a specific location with absolutely no damage to either property on either side of the trees. The company owner was very perfessional and businesslike. The team foreman was professional with a "safety first" attitude. I was very pleased with the service and the conduct of the work team. Thanks.
