I was really worried about the potential for damage to the house, because of how it was situated. But they had it totally under control, and I didn't have a single problem. It took about two days, and they left everything perfectly cleaned up. As a side note, his son climbs like a spider monkey :)
Description of Work: We had a large tulip tree directly next to our house, and Bob (and his son, and his grandson) came and took it down. It was actually really cool to watch - the son would climb up, tie off large branches, and then cut them and lower them, and they took down the whole tree, as well as removing the branches and debris.

Bob's employees (which included his son and grandson) did an excellent job cleaning up many damaged trees in my yard from the October snow storm. While inundated with calls, he got back to me the same day of the storm and scheduled my non-emergency work for a future date. His crew was friendly, efficient, and thorough in cleaning up all of the debris from their work. His rate was reasonable, especially given the number of men and the amount of equipment he brought to the job. I doubt there is a more experienced person at his profession than Bob in Westchester. He quickly understands what needs to be done, and in the three instances he has worked on the trees in my yard, the execution has been great.
Description of Work: Bob came to take down a number of very large branches (in one case half a tree) that had been damaged in the October snow storm. He also trims the trees in my yard on a bi-annual basis.

A large oak tree died in our yard and several oak trees needed trimming. We called Robert and his team arrived on time. They worked all day and cleaned up--very neat. They also chopped up tree and stacked for firewood. We have used them 3 or 4 times for tree service over the last 10 years

They did a fine job. They were able to keep the cost within reason. They seemed to do just what needed to be done, instead of selling me services that I didn't need. I thought that they were professional, though you have to wait a little bit for them to come. They won't come immediately.

Whitney is certainly professional and, when he takes on the job, punctual and efficient. He removed some trees for us years ago, and I remember him being fair in cost as well. But I've twice called him for recent needs. Both times, he came and gave an estimate and gave a date that he'd start the work. Both times, he never showed!

Mr. Whitney showed up on time to review the property and provide an estimate. Once the work scope and daily price were agreed, he said that it would be approx. 2 weeks before he could do the work due to his currently busy schedule. This was fine for us. He then called a few weeks later, we agreed a date and time. He showed up with his crew on the agreed upon date and time (I was a little late but they just jumped in and started working). They completed the work in two days, cleaned up after themselves and cut some of the dead branches into firewood.
Description of Work: We recently purchased an old house in Yonkers with an extra lot next door. There are a dozen or so very large, old trees which had not been trimmed of dead limbs in several years. Mr. Whitney and his crew spent two days trimming some very large old dead limbs along with clearing out a brush area.

Everything went extremely well. The crew was very efficient, they cleaned up everything and were very polite. I believe the price was very reasonable. I would recommend this service to anybody in lower Westchester.
Description of Work: I had used these guys before to do some trimming work and was pleased with their work. This time a large maple had to be taken down and the stump ground down to level. I was very pleased with the end results.

They really did a great job and they did a good job cleaning up as well. I would recommend them to other people because they are thorough and efficient in their work. They are also professional, friendly, and they also have reasonable rates.
Description of Work: They cut down four trees and then ground down the stumps for us as well.
