I have used Newcomb Tree Service several times in the past and have been pleased with their work. When I used them in 2017 and 2018 they did great work and gave a fair and reasonable price. I called them in March of 2022 for an estimate to take down several large pine trees and a few other small trees. The gentleman that came to my house was pleasant, but the estimate was ridiculously high. The estimate was twice what I paid them back in 2018 and that was for taking down half the amount of trees. I had another tree service company come out to give a quote and it was for half the price as Newcomb. Needless to say I went with the other company. Newcomb did great work for me years ago and I believe they would have done good work this time around, but their pricing seems to have changed. If you get an estimate from Newcomb, just make sure you are getting a few other comparison estimates.

Response from Newcomb Tree Service
I am sorry to hear this, cost of business has went up a bit since 2018. Usually we are more competitive then double the price. Hopefully we get another shot next time you need work done. I wish price didn’t have to result in a bad review for a company that has worked hard to keep great reviews. Thanks

Everything went very well. We had a leaning tree that we felt could fall soon and they worked us into their schedule quickly. They were very efficient and had a large oak down much faster than I expected. None of our delicate plants near the tree were damaged.

Absolutely great. Shortly after we called, Pat arrived to give an estimate and also noticed another tree that needed to come down. A date was set, crews arrived on time, and quickly and efficiently cleared away the logs and brush. In the last few years ,Newcomb has done several other jobs for us as well as for our neighbors. All of us are very satisfied customers and will not settle for anyone else. From initial contact to paying the bill they could not be more professional. prompt, reliable, experienced, courteous and do great clean up, too. They are THE BEST!

Went well and I was upset because I didn't realize what the stump grinding would look like after it was done. The manager came out and explained to me what was done and why and I was satisfied with the explanation.

Very professional and efficient. We feel they went above and beyond, recommended removing a couple of additional trees, which we approved, and upon payment were surprised to find that we were not charged extra. We would definitely hire again, and anticipate needing them next year for some additional clean up.

They did a good job. They worked for a day and a half, which was the estimate. They gave us a daily rate and did not charge more than quoted. We felt it was fair. We had to remove three trees that would grow into a problem for the roads from private property and they gave us great estimates on the time it would take so we could bill the cost to the residents. The estimated time and cost were on the nose. We did ask for a couple of adjustments at the end of the job and they complied.
Description of Work: I am the President of our HOA. One of our residents who has a landscaping business recommended them. We needed trees to be taken down and trimmed that affected our roads and underbrush to be cleared that affected roads and views of drivers.

Was recommended these guys by a neighbor. Price was great, team was efficient, and they cleaned up after themselves. Had to take down one very large tree, then a handful of smaller ones, as well as trim a lot of branches in contact with our roof. Highly recommend and would use again.

They didn’t harm the building at all. They cleaned up after themselves and came when they said they were going to come. They did what they said they were going to do and charged me what they said they were going to charge me. I don’t remember how much it was, but it was very reasonable.

They did it all in one day. They took the trees down in a safe manner, disposed of the trees and cleaned up themselves. They gave me a very reasonable estimate and stuck to it. I can rely on them to stick to their estimates, because they have done other work for me before. They are the only people I call. The trees were 50 feet tall and 4 feet in diameter and was right by our house. I was not scared at all, because I know the quality of their work. They give me very fair estimates and are very prompt in giving those estimates. They come when they said they are going to come. They are very professional in what they do. They do exactly what they say they are going to do, if not more. If they see a problem on the site that needs to be taken care of, they take care of that and wrap it into the original price if it is minor work. They work quickly and efficiently. Safety is first! I never worry about them hurting my buildings. They clean up after themselves as though they were not there, except the trees are missing. The trees were partially hanging over the house and were dropping needles all the time into my gutters and clogging them. So I was having to have my gutters cleaned 4 or 5 times a year.
Description of Work: They removed 9 trees.

They trespassed and made a mess on my property. When I arrived home, they had equipment and tools laying out all over my lawn and a pile of logs in my driveway. They used my concrete retaining wall as their workbench. Their saw leaked bar oil and left several oil stains on the concrete. They promised to clean it with oil dry but did not. They snapped off a survey marker and then illegally replaced it by guesstimating where it went without the supervision of a licensed surveyor. If you want to start a feud with your neighbor, these guys would be an excellent choice.
Description of Work: My neighbor hired them to remove 2 trees.

These guys are the best - we could not be more pleased with their services. Personable, professional and highly competent HARD workers that cleared our creek of fallen trees that potentially would cause flooding in larger rainfalls. We will continue to use them as the need arises.

They showed up when they said and all of the workers were very courteous and competent. They had the equipment and crew needed to complete the tree work in one day. They cleaned up very well. We would definitely use them again and have recommended them to everyone in our neighborhood homeowner's association.
Description of Work: We had a huge pine tree come down in a storm and decided to take down several more near the house and also some dead trees (large poplars, maple, pines, oak). They also took away some large brush piles and trimmed some overgrown limbs. They also took out some overgrown trees/shrubs in our front area and came back later to grind many stumps for an additional fee.

This was an example of outstanding professionalism! After half of a huge tree came down in a mild windstorm I was in a panic to get the remaining half removed before any further damage could be done. Pat responded to my distress call quickly, arrived shortly thereafter to assess the situation, agreed it was an emergency, and within a couple of hours arrived with a full crew and all the necessary equipment to do the job. I was amazed at how efficiently and quickly Pat and his team worked to safely take down the very tall (and very rotten) tree and to remove the massive amount of debris from the earlier fall. Everyone on the crew was respectful of my property - the garden plants, the newly installed gate, the lawn, etc. - and Pat is a veritable artist with the Caterpillar. He and the team were impressive from start to finish. This could have been a disaster of major proportions for me, but only one day after Newcomb did the job I can barely tell that anything unusual had occurred in my yard. I would not hesitate for a moment to recommend Newcomb Tree Service to anyone in need of this type of expertise.

Prior to service, Pat Newcombe visited the property and gave us an estimate. When we called he returned the call promptly and arrived soon thereafter. On the day the job began, Newcomb Tree Service arrived exactly on time and worked all day. They brought enough crew to complete the job in one day --earlier than the estimated two days. They worked carefully, safely, and efficiently. They have done other work in our neighborhood and obviously are thorough professionals. Clean up was excellent. Cost was exactly as estimated. We would certainly use them again and recommend to others.

EXCELLENT COMMUNICATION - Pat (the owner) is an excellent communicator. His four men met me the day of the tree removal and introduced themselves and shook my hand. They were pleasant and upbeat and helped each other get the job done. EXCELLENT SERVICE - The guys worked efficiently and effectively. They CLEANED UP AFTER THE SERVICE - there is no evidence they were here! I couldn't believe it - no remaining branches or debris. It is not often you get this kind of service any more from any service provider - I give them my highest recommendation and share my gratitude for a job well done!

I thought that the price was reasonable for the amount of work that they did. We did have to reschedule a couple times because the storm did not come though, that was not a big deal, and made me his priority because he had to reschedule a couple times. He gave me an estimate with a couple things that I did not even notice that they needed attention. Overall experience, I will give them an A.

what tim and his crew did not do: they did not tell us in the spring they could do the work, stall all summer, waste my time, then come back in the spring and then quote 600.00 more and tell me I was incorrect on the quote from the year before. all possible because I trusted a word and handshake and friends referral. they did not, like the next tree service I called who did not give me a written quote tell me "it would be about 500.00" which seemed very low for work I had asked for. They did not do like the first tree service I got two years ago who charged me 400.00 to basically do nothing, tell me my trees were rotted and they could not cut them and would have to remove all of them. that service had no bucket truck. what Newcombes service did do was to survey the work, leave a written estimate on the door, perform the work with a bucket truck within time they said they would, professionally, completely, neatly, for a reasonable price that made sense with out lowballing the cost to add extras as work occurred and did leave all of my trees intact. they also quoted a good price for tree and brush removal in the back yard and recommended it be done in december as it will be more cost effective then. I would highly recommend this service, and by the way I choose not to name two of the other services but they were also on angies list, so get a written quote is my strong recommendation.
