See above.
Description of Work: I had 4 stumps grinded-$225. I had about 20 overgrown large shrubs surrounding the house trimmed-$560.00. They did a great job, clean up was good, they were fast. I would use them again, maybe not the cheapest, but reliable, nice, professional, and a good job.

Richard Trippett was polite, pleasant, willing to spend time explaining things. Walked around our property and discussed our needs in details. Was perhaps 30 minutes late for appointment. Once we decided to use Almstead, it took awhile for them to get the work done, but we were not in any hurry. Quality of work appeared to be excellent. Site was cleaned up well.
Description of Work: Cut down and removed two trees. Trimmed a number of other trees. Applied "Arbortect" systemic injection to two sycamores.

Excellent! Patrick was very good. The job was done as promised, and on time. They were very prompt in repairing damage to our fence and sprinkler system from a wayward branch/pick. Mary, in the office was very prompt at following up.
Description of Work: Removed 7 trees including a huge maple, worked on ground stumps and trimmed a few others.

IT WAS GOOD UNTIL THIS LAST TRIP. I WOULDNT GIVE THEM TEN CENTS. I WOULDNT CALL THEM BACK. THEY CALLED BACK TO DO ANOTHER SERVICE, AND I TOLD THEM TO KISS MY YOU KNOW WHAT. THEY BROKE A PIPE ON ME FOR AN OUTSIDE WATER SPIGOT. IF MY SON-IN-LAW WASNT AROUND OR WE WERENT AROUND, WE WOULDVE HAD A BASEMENT FULL OF WATER. THE OUTCOME WAS BAD. IF YOURE REMOVING BRANCHES, DONT MARK UP THE OUTSIDE OF MY HOUSE. THEY BROKE THE DRAIN FROM THE GUTTER, AND THEY DIDNT EVEN TELL US. THEY LEANED UP AGAINST THE HOUSE. THEY BROKE SOMETHING ELSE, AND PUT IT IN THE CORNER OF THE YARD.
Description of Work: THEY CUT DOWN TWO TREES IN THE BACKYARD AND ALONG THE SIDE OF THE HOUSE.
