An excellent client experience. The owner, Eric Eckard, was knowledgeable, prompt and fair. His team worked skillfully and efficiently. The post-removal bed clean-up was both notable and commendable. Once the work was complete, absent knowing a large maple had been removed, one could not detect the work performed.
Description of Work: Removed one large maple from front bed (ground stump and replaced mulch). Also removed two large cherry trees in back wooded area (flush cut stumps)

He was phenomenal- he was just great! He quoted in one day and I actually called and he came to do the job the next day- that was amazing. I chose him to take down the tree because other people that quoted were going to let it fall but he said he could bring it down in sections and so we won't have any other damage on the other trees in the process of it falling down. His price was good. He was very professional.They were great and very explanatory.
Description of Work: He did a tree service for me. He cut down a tree.

He was good. He indicated he would get here when he could. We did the majority of the work ourselves. They took care of the work minus an 8-ft. section of the tree as his power chain saw had run out of gas. The pricing was fair.
Description of Work: They assisted with tree removal as a 20-year old Yellow Poplar tree had fallen in our backyard.

Once they were here, it went great. The guys were fast and efficient. They got the tree down without damaging the fence or any property. Once the tree was down they thoroughly cleaned, raked, and removed all tree scraps.

Falls removed a diseased 60 ft Norway maple tree from my backyard. His crew of about four or five people arrived at 9:30am. Besides chopping down the tree, they also ground the stump and extensive roots. While they were there with all their equipment, I had them also remove some shrubs and grind those stumps. It increased the bill a hundred bucks but it was money well spent. It took them all day to do all the work. They cleaned up after themselves nicely. A day or so after they took down the tree, I discovered some major roots and part of the stump were still in the ground. They were so covered in wood chips and sawdust that the guy doing the root grinding missed them. I called Eric and he sent somebody to grind the parts they missed. When that guy was leaving, I asked if he knew any companies that could fix the yard because it was way too much of a mess for me to do alone and by hand. He told me Falls did that kind of work, too. So I called Eric the next day and he sent one of his guys over a few days later to give me an estimate which I accepted. A few days later, on a Wednesday, a crew arrived and hauled away the wood chips. The ground was too muddy to do anything else. The next day was a religious holiday so I asked them not to come back then. They said they'd be back on Friday but they didn't come that day or Saturday. I called Eric on Monday and he said they'd be there the next day. It rained then so we had to postpone the work until Thursday. So there ended up being a week between the time they started this phase of the job and the time it ended. The two person crew arrived that day around 11am. They worked until about 6. They ground more roots, cleaned up the wood chips and root chunks, graded the land, spread topsoil, planted grass seed, spread lime and fertilizer and covered it all with straw. As before, they cleaned up after themselves nicely. Other than the scheduling glitch over the holiday everything went well. I liked that every time I called Falls, Eric answered. I didn't get a secretary or voice mail. He was easy to work with and very accommodating. Every Falls employee I talked to was friendly, professional and courteous. Even more importantly, from the moment they arrived until the time they left, they worked hard and the work they did was superior.
Description of Work: Removed tree, ground up the stump, cleaned up area and planted grass.

I had a dead tree near the edge of my backyard that I was afraid could cause damage to my, or my neighbor's home. I contacted Eric and he stopped by that day and gave a great quote for that single tree. A few days later I asked him to come back out to quote me for an expanded job. He gave another good rate. It took about a week for Eric's team to start the work because of the rain and soft conditions. Nobody's fault, but you should take this into consideration if you have other plans to work around. I wasn't home when Eric's team arrived, but they stayed late to get the job done. When they dropped the last tree a few small branches from a neighboring tree were knocked down, but this is not a big deal. The team was very friendly. My 2 year old got a kick out of watching them work, and they gave him a few waves as they were working. I'm very happy with the job and the price. I will definitely have them come back in the future to limb up the woods in my backyard.
Description of Work: Dropped and ground stumps for 3 large trees, and a number of smaller trees.

I left a voicemail message requesting a call and because my first phone call was made very early Thursday morning, I questioned whether it was received. For this reason, I phoned again on Friday. The company representative came out that day, reviewed the work to be done and assured me that I would receive a quote by either the end of that day, or first thing Monday morning. I was also informed that upon my acceptance of the contract, work would take place either the week of July 28th but no later than the week of August 4th. As of today, August 1st, I have received no quote - hence having the work done the week of July 28th was impossible. Gentleman was very nice, seemed to know his trees, but I can not recommend due to unreliability.
Description of Work: Provider was to provide quote for pruning and shaping my trees, as well as do a health inspection. Upon receipt of his quote, I planned to contract with Falls for the work

I have no idea what you're talking about. We looked at your property and you wanted a landscaper not a tree service we haven't formally declined your account but you sure took care of that. I sincerely thank you for saving us a lot of wasted time we can use for others.

The quote that they gave me was the lowest. They did a complete job of cleaning up. They did a very good job on that too.
Description of Work: I used Falls Tree Experts to take down a small tree that was hanging over the house. They also took a very big branch of a huge tree that I have.

Unfortunately one of the falling branches damaged the siding of our house. We noticed the damage later on in the day and called Eric about the issue. He sent out one of his guys to look at the damage, he agreed that the damage must have happened during the cutting. Since we will get siding replaced in the near future we asked if Eric, instead of repairing the damage, could cut the tree stumps down to near ground level (they are about 4 feet tall now). We have not heard anything from Eric since his guy came out to look at the damage about 3 weeks ago. Voice messages are not being returned. We are also still waiting for Eric to return our two safety cones he mistakenly took from us when leaving our house.
Description of Work: Eric and his crew dropped 7 large trees on our property.

I think this rating is highly unreasonable. Some serious tonnage of wood was successfully removed for the owners and placed on the money. A thorough clean up wa completed. I personally climbed the last tree over the house and didn't realize a board had been hit or I would have repaired or made arrangements. We since took care of all issues with the home owner and should receive an updated review or grade. This was a job only a few companies could have even done at all. Thank you

Hi [Removed Member Name], I came out and looked at the project and should have just left you a price but wanted to do a more thorough write up of the other tree problems I noticed that need addressed and I was pressed for time so I left intending to email you the quote. We are so slammed busy I have a hard time getting back to the overwhelming responses we are receiving daily. I really appreciate my patient and persistent clients that understand that small companies do not have limitless resources and may need a bit more time to follow up. You'll find our reviews for those who do hire us are exceptional. Sorry for your disappointing experience. I am constantly trying to better respond and stay on top of the work load without sacrificing quality on the job. Eric Certified Arborist OH6202A

It went great! Eric and his crew originally came out to give us an estimate to just cut the trees and leave them for us to clean up. We weren't expecting such a good price, and especially weren't expecting them to be able to get the job down that day. They started working immediately, got all the trees down within a reasonable time considering the size and locations of the trees. We are very pleased. Eric and his team did what they said they would do, and before leaving he even gave my husband some helpful tips on the best way to cut the tree limbs. Thank you for a job well done!

It has been a week and I have heard nothing. They did not come out or call. I was disappointed because they were so highly rated and local. I called 5 tree services from Angie's list and only one followed through. Guess who gets my business? I recieved a call today from Falls group. He said he read the review and had come out the same day I called and left a quote that I did not recieve. He then continued and raised his voice about the poor review and maybe I should have called him instead of giving him an "f" on Angie's list. I hung up so I did not have to continue to listen to his ranting. Whether he did leave a quote and it was in wrong box or not seen, I don't know. I do know that I don' t want phone calls like this from anyone. They might be a wonderful company and this was a fluke, but they need to accept poor reviews as well as the good.
Description of Work: I called for an estimate and was told they would be out the same afternoon or next day.

Pick up the phone and make a call! We left a quote in the mailbox the same day. As far as we knew she got it. We promptly deliver hundreds of estimates and never hear back "thanks for your time and estimate" so we didn't know she didn't get a quote. If more people would use the old fashioned phone to check on an estimate instead of slamming a contractor who works hard for their clients, There would be less misleading reviews on web sites.

Contacted for quote. He returned call once and left a message. I called again, he said he had stopped by but I was not home. He was very busy on a job but would try and work up a quote. If I hadn't heard from him by Saturday, 11/9, I should call him back. I guess I'm not used to the customer having to follow-up, so I just haven't gotten around to calling him back. Plan to make a couple of contacts with other contractors within the next couple of days, and once I have a few quotes, I may recontact Falls to see if he has any interest and how his prices compare. Not the greatest experience for my first attempt using Angies List...

Eric came out the morning after I called. He was extremely pleasant and easy to talk to, and understood everything I wanted. Two working days later, he emailed a quote, which I accepted immediately. A week and a half later, I realized that most of the work had been done, but I have no idea when. They cleaned up so well that it wasn't obvious that anything had changed. No one had called to tell me they were coming, and there was no bill. So I emailed Eric and he sent a bill. I emailed back to say that I had noticed that some of the work had not been done - including trimming a branch that was overhanging the house, and clearing debris off the roof. I did not pay the bill, expecting that they would come out quickly and finish. Three and a half weeks later, we had an early snowstorm and lots of new debris and large branches came down on the roof. I emailed Eric again, and he sent his crew out the next morning. They still didn't let me know they were coming or ring the bell when they started work, but I heard them outside and went out to talk with them. The men were very apologetic about my long wait, and understood exactly what still needed to be done. They did everything I asked, and also trimmed some additional dead branches while they were up there, and put all the branches in the woods. I am now delighted with the work!
