This company is excellent in their service and knowledge. We have used this company for the past three years. We thought we were going to lose our two huge Linden trees in front of our house. We called three companies and the only one who responded with the accurate problem and treatment was Ahlum & Arbor. We won't use anyone else!!!
Description of Work: Three of our trees were treated for insect damage and another was wired to save it from splitting.

They came to look at the tree and left me an estimate per my request. We reviewed the estimate before they worked on it. Everything went very well. The cables were installed just before the hurricane-force winds. Fortunately, the cables supported the large limbs and only a few smaller branches fell from the tree. When they were cutting on the tree, they were careful around the yard and cleaned up any branches cut down.
Description of Work: They have trimmed a very large silver maple in my backyard twice. This last time, they installed three cables to support the tree limbs.

We use them on an annual basis to treat these thee trees in our yards because of their known problems with pests/disease. They are very knowledgeable and professional. Each year they send us a new contract, we sign it, they come treat the trees, and then they bill us. It couldn't be more simple than that. We are hoping by treating are Ash tree we will save it from the Emerald Ash Borer, although we know the research and studies are not promising.
Description of Work: Treated our Ash Tree and 2 White Pine trees

I called them around noon on Monday, and they were here by 2:00pm in spite of the storm. I have used them many times in the past and they are absolutely wonderful! The owner is a certified arborist. He is extremely knowledgeable and knows what he is doing. This is reflected in his employees - they are great. They come on time and always clean up. They are just a wonderful organization. They are very reasonably priced. I was pleased with them.

Took about 10 days to get wood delivery, but it's high season. On time, full cord, good burning wood. Burns much longer than the packs you get at the grocery. Will use again. RE: estimate: very knowledgeable, professional arborist. Explained the reasons behind his recommendations. The priciest of the 3 estimates I got, but I believe they would do a quality job.
Description of Work: Ordered a cord of wood delivered, split and dumped. Also, got an estimate on tree removal and pruning.

We have used Ahlum & Arbor before and, in our opinion, there is no better tree service. To begin with, the "tree preservation" part of their name really says it all — they're in the business of carefully taking care of trees, to the greatest extent possible. When they have to prune or trim a tree, they do it with the tree's best health and growth pattern in mind. When they have to take a tree down, they do it with the utmost concern for the rest of the landscape, dwellings, etc. I can't speak highly enough of them.
Description of Work: Removed one diseased and moribund tree and another that was sickly and growing into a power line.

They were prompt in responding to my call for an estimate. And, the only delay in work was caused by me because I took a short vacation, thinking that they wouldn't get to my work that soon. The property was cleaned up so well after they did their work and the trees pruned so well, that I wouldn't have known they were there except for some lawn ornaments that were moved. Excellent company. It was expensive, but in line with other arborists.
Description of Work: Trimmed front tree to specifications and back trees. Trimmed neighbors overhanging branches.

On the day scheduled for the estimate the Arborist called and confirmed that he was on his way. We walked around our property and I explained my issues with each of the trees. He assured me that there were fairly simple solutions to my concerns. They made sure that we understood all of the issues with our trees, recommended pruning of two Ornamental Cherry tree's to improve the balance of the canopy and overall health of the tree and set up an appointment to complete the pruning job. The weather took a turn for the worse but the office called and advised that they couldn't do any of the work until the weather improved. A couple of weeks later I received a call from the office, they were on site at my home and wanted to get a verbal okay to go ahead and complete the pruning. My tree's looked beautiful! They were very careful with the landscaping and we could immediately see an improvement in the shape of the tree. After 1 year we have noticed a great improvement on the overall health of these trees, they did an awesome job and we will use them in the future!
Description of Work: We had multiple overgrown trees on our lot and one that we felt may cause problems with our foundation (too close to house). We had scheduled an Arborist to come and look at our trees and provide a course of action and estimate

Our landscaper, Daniels Landscaping (another excellent company), noticed the leaf miner damage and recommended Ahlum & Arbor to us. I called Wednesday or Thursday and they came Monday. We were very pleased with their work. Our technician Skip was very knowledgeable and professional, as were the office staff Lana and Christine. You can request that the technician call the night before & talk to you before coming, which is very helpful. The price we paid reflects a coupon discount that was available at the time.
Description of Work: Ahlum & Arbor applied a soil drench to boxwoods for leaf miner and to 2 small ash trees for emerald ash borer (same chemical as for leaf miner), and sprayed horticultural oil for mite control on boxwoods and juniper.

They were careful of the lawn with their machines and also were careful while doing the job not to get hurt. They were a little slow at showing up but that was because they are so busy.
Description of Work: They came out and trimmed out all the dead limbs out of four huge beach trees. They got rid of all the debris.
