Description of Work: They trim my trees every year. I have large oak trees-- 60 to 75 feet. They do an excellent job and clean up well. Last year they removed a 60 ft. tree that was in a tight area and took it down in pieces without any damage to surrounding landscaping and building.

I called for an estimate, they came out quickly and the price quote was great. But, it was only one tree and to get the price I had to be an add on to the list of jobs already going on in the neighborhood, so I couldn't get an exact date of when they'd do the job. So they gave me a few days when they were in the area and when those days passed I called and I think they'd forgotten to add on my add on, because after I called they were there the next day they came out and the tree was gone. They were very nice, the job was well done, you could hardly tell there had been a tree there. They were very professional and courteous. I would use them again if I needed more tree work done.

They couldn't have done anything better. The foreman of the crew (they sent 5 or 6 workers) was very communicative. He asked questions about how I wanted certain areas trimmed before moving forward. He answered my questions about tree care and future needs for pruning. They cleaned up very thorouhly. It was an altogether impressive service.

In person quote was very prompt (within 2 hrs after calling). Business was responsive to phone calls and showed up when they said they would. There were about 7 guys and they worked from 7:30am till around 3pm. They talked to me about what they were planning on doing and we discussed the best way to accomplish the job without causing any unnecessary damage to the yard from equipment, etc. Overall, they were very easy to work with and did high quality work. I'm not sure how their pricing compares to other service providers in the area because I was unable to even get another service to respond to my request for quote. Based on discussion with friends that have had similar work done in other areas of the country/state, it sounds like the fitness tree pricing was reasonable however. Even if it was slightly more, I was say the service provided is worth it.

My yard has been crowded out over the years by my and neighbor's oak trees. The overhanging limbs put too much shade in the yard and nothing would grow under them. The tiny live oak leaves were a huge job to clean up every April. I also needed some pine tree limbs removed that were crowding other trees and threatening the car and house. I had noticed that Fitness Tree did tree maintenance on the condominium common area trees across the property line. That was my main reason to select this company. After seeing excellent reviews on Angies List I called them to coordinate the scope of work and provide an estimate. Their estimator showed up that afternoon and pointed out what they recommended to be removed and gave me an estimate. The term they used for removing lower limbs of a tree was called and quot;elevatingand quot;. I called their office and arranged the job next week. They showed up as scheduled with a large crew of workers and equipment and finished the job in about 3 or 4 hours. They were very safety conscious about wearing protective equipment and were very careful not to cause any incidental damage. I was especially impressed with their bucket truck and its operator. All downed limbs were chipped and hauled away, except larger pieces I requested left behind for use in wood stove. Fallen twigs, leaves, and sawdust raked clean from yard, cleaner than when they arrived. They even repaired ruts in yard from trucks. I gave them A in all categories. I only gave them an N/A in cost because I did not compare costs or receive estimates from other companies.

We called and scheduled a time for a rep to come out and give an estimate. Staff came out the very next day and provided estimate and plan of action as to how the work would be performed. The work crew arrived on time and began worked promptly. the pruning was performed very well and the trees were shaped in a manner to improve their overall health and productivity in the future. The crew worked very hard and did an excellent job cleaning up afterward.

These guys are great. We selected them based on other Angie's List reviews and we are very happy with our decision. They gave us a written quote, their quote was lower than another quote we received, they showed up when they said they would and there were a lot of people working so they completed the job quickly. They also cleaned up everything and left the yard looking better than it looked when they arrived. They were all really nice and I will gladly call them again if we need anything else done.
Description of Work: We had several trees cut down, some trees near the house trimmed, and other trees examined to make sure they look healthy.

Stephen Snyder quickly returned my emails and phone calls, came to do the estimate when he said he would, and the crew came to do the work when he said they would. Kudos! The crew saved my beloved Weeping Willow tree after it was ravaged by Hurricane Irene. In addition, without being asked, they put through their chipper the huge pile of yard waste that I had accumulated after the hurricane so I didn't have to wait forever for the city to pick it up. All in all, a wonderful experience. I recommend them without reservation!

From the first contact on the phone to the onsite visit to provide an estimate to the completion of the work, the service was outstanding. They did what they said they'd do when they said they would do it. A professional operation in every way. I'd definitely recommend and use this company's service again.

Originally, I had asked Steve Snyder for an estimate for a tree to be removed that had grown too large for the location it was in. While he was there, I had him look at other trees on the property (I had recently moved in). He suggested a plan of action for two other trees. His crew actually called me the day before our scheduled appointment and said they had finished a job early and wanted to know if I would like them to come by and do the job then. I agreed. They showed up and we reviewed the requests. They were very professional and took the time to answer my many general questions about the trees on my property. He gave me tips on caring for my palm tree, also. They removed the stumps and their clean up was excellent. It was a very good experience and I would recommend this company to anyone.

It went like clockwork. Like another reviewer here, I did all my homework on tree companies ahead of time. We always look carefully at reviews all over the web (and Angie's List), we narrow it down to our three top picks and then we meet and get estimates from each. Steve Snyder (owner of Fitness Tree) met with us, toured our property, made recommendations, and gave us an estimate. We kept him longer than 30 minutes and although ours was a small job in comparison to what his company normally does, he treated us as if our job were equally as important. We were concerned about price and relieved when he presented us with the estimate. This is a guy who has all the proper equipment, who has hand-picked a staff of PROFESSIONALS who take pride in their work, and, he has insurance, including workmen's comp. Steve is forthright, straightforward and inspires trust. For the first time ever, we just signed on the spot and had zero desire to meet the other two contractors. Steve walks the property with his two crew chiefs so all expectations are clear. The two crew chiefs who worked on our property were Bob and Bruce. In all of Wilmington, it doesn't get any better than those two. They introduce themselves, look you in the eye, shake your hand and then knowledgeably get to work. If you have questions, they are patient and caring and stop everything to answer those questions. If you request another limb cut (as I did) they take care of it. They clean up so beautifully that you don't know they've been here. They are a top-notch, first-class outfit through and through. One VERY important and surprising thing to know about Steve: he LOVES trees. If it can be avoided, he recommends NOT cutting a tree. He cuts conservatively. This is amazing given that cutting trees produces his income. Just as a cautionary note, other tree companies we looked at were not all insured or did not have the proper equipment or both. On a scale of 1-10, I'd rate Fitness Tree and 11.

Excellent. The owner, Steve, came out to the house, he addressed what we wanted to have removed and immediately assessed the shape of all of the trees on our property; made recommendations and within 30 minutes, gave us a written estimate and scheduled the date of service. We had interviewed several other companies and by far, Steve's company was the most knowledgeable and personable. The fact that we do not live at this home and live far away, was a major factor in making the right decision. Fortunately, our patience was well rewarded.
