Be careful with this company. Took time to get a serviceman here to do a quote. He said he would would schedule appointment. Even called and texted him to finalize. No response. Very unprofessional.

This place is the worst . I contacted them to do a job. The person from Davey came out, told me specifically what the would be doing and how they would be doing it . I received a quote. The crew came out and said they didn't have the right equipment for the job with them , but said they would be able to do it with other equipment at a later date. I contacted the rep again. He explained again in detail the equipment needed and assured me the job WOULD get done, and set a tentative date for the work to be done. I received a call a week later from the rep saying they would not be able to do the job. This wasted over a month of my time and set our project schedule back for renovation. Use someone else that actually knows what they are doing and doesn't set false expectations. Oh... and this was just to remove tree debris in our back yard.

They were very responsive and professional when I asked for a quote. Once I received the quote, after some reflection I decided to ask a question in anticipation of moving forward (hiring). I emailed and called and have yet to hear back. Plus, you would think they would follow up in hope of "closing" the sale. Evidently they either don't need or want my business. Consequently, I got a quote (for less $$) from someone else and have hired them.

1st we wanted tree out asap, salesman put us on winter schedule. Finally got tree removed and crew left garage gutters full of debris and chunks of wood on the garage roof. The worst problem is we asked that stump be cut low to the ground, salesman said no problem. Crew leader asked on last day to cut stump low, said we'll see how the saw is cutting. Left 3" high stump. Got corporate survey, filled out honestly, salesman called and asked how he could fix issue. I said cut the stump lower, he could not, too busy. Said he'll send check for 50.00$ so we could get it cut before grinding. Waited 3 weeks no check, salesman said invoice reduced by $50. Not true, I paid invoice in full. Poor company to deal with.

Davey did the work earlier than they originally said they would. That was a pleasant surprise. The gent who performed the work was thorough and went over his work after he was done. Price was fair. Definitely would hire again.

Though the tree and other trimming will not be done until the ground freezes, they have been crucial in identifying that all of our hemlock trees need to be treated for wooly adelgid as well. WE didn't know that we had it yet in our neighborhood. Initial consultation was very educational and the two men who have come to treat the trees have been very friendly, and clearly have knowledge about everything about their work. A great company to work with. If a tree doesn't need to come down, they won't tell you it does, and they do other inspections around the property while they're here.

They came out within an hour and gave an estimate, and had a crew out the next day to remove the hanging tree top, along with other dead/damaged tree limbs. They also removed all debris from the front lawn. My wife and I did not shop around for other quotes as we viewed this as emergency situation, but would gladly use Davey again for more routine tree pruning in the future.

Excellent work, and good post work cleanup. I had also asked for an estimate for more work. I didn't get it, called to remind them and still didn't get it. I knew it would be a difficult job - but just tell me that

We haven't had that in years. Their prices got very expensive and very high and we went to a One Step possibly that was maybe four years ago. Their prices kept increasing every single year and quite a bit and I just went around and priced around and we could services elsewhere a little cheaper. They were nice people, they seemed very nice I never had an argument with them and never fought with them and the lawn looked good it just got very expensive. They were very nice when we had to deal with them, when I talked to them on the phone they always called around the time they were going to put the lawn service down. So I had no problem with the service it was more the cost.

They did an ok Job. I will not be using them again though. They refused to cut off one branch and now we have to cut it off because it is all dead now. They were nice, but they were very particular. Their pricing is about average. They did come out when they said they would, but I would not use them again as I have stated before.

It was okay but I cancelled after a year. I think they’re very mechanical, they don’t go out of their way to recommend anything else, I just like working on a personal basis with an individual that seems knowledgeable, instead of just reading out of a book or whatever.

The workers returned and re-edged the gazebo area and re-aerated and reseeded the lawn. The area they reseeded is mostly weeds. It looks terrible. On the first visit, the workers only removed the boards. On the second visit they took away the large cement bricks.
Description of Work: We asked the provider to reseed a lawn that was bare because of extensive shade due to heavy tree branches. We had the trees trimmed by another provider who charged half the amount of Davey Tree Co. We went with Davey for reseeding because we have a lawn care contract with them to provide fertilizer, weed, and grub control for our lawn. We also asked them to edge around our gazebo and to remove boards and large bricks from the back of our yard. They did a very bad job of edging around the gazebo, aerating the lawn area to be reseeded, and reseeding. I called to complain and the manager came out, inspected the work, and decided that a poor job was done.
