Trying to save a tree..is it worth the price? I think the price is a little expensive but he is very professional and he's very good.
Description of Work: What they are doing is trying to save our 2 ash trees from the Emerald borer. So they treat, I don't know how they do it, but they do it every other year. They've done it for years, well since the Emerald ash borer was such a problem. We have 2 huge ash trees and they have saved them.

I called Phoenix Tree Care to request the removal of a diseased tree in my backyard. Brad Kitchen, the owner, came out and looked at the tree within a few days. He then sent me an estimate within 4 days. I have worked with this company before and have always found Brad considerate and helpful. He is a certified arborist, which I prefer in dealing with most of my tree issues. Brad called a day ahead to give me notice and make sure the day specified was okay with me. The first day was not, so he called again a week later. The three workers came out on April 1st. They cut the tree down in sections with branches small enough for the workers to get them through the back yard gate. They used a chain saw on the tree. I had requested that the tree be cut up for firewood. They cut the large branches into fireplace log lengths and neatly stacked them. They were efficient and polite. They completed the work and clean up in about 50 minutes. They did no damage to the house, fences, or surrounding shrubs or anywhere else. Cost was in line with the estimate.
Description of Work: Removal of a 30 foot tall diseased tree in my backyard.

We have relied on them couple of times and they provide excellent care. They are very cooperative, willing to work with whatever you need. They have always been really good and very reliable, explains everything and they even done work for us when we have not been here. They just came and said what they were going to do and cleaned up really nicely. The cost was appropriate and I was not upset with that at all. I would surely use them again in the future.
Description of Work: We used Phoenix Tree Care and Trees By Louise couple of years ago. They took down four over tall pine trees in a narrow space between two houses and completely chopped them up removed them and put in appropriate trees.

The representative was very professional, and pointed out specifically which branches would need trimmed, and the reasons behind it. He also pointed out that my very large Bradford Pear tree needed to be thinned in the middle to allow the air and light to flow through, to promote the health of the tree, and prevent problems in high winds. They gave me a separate estimate for adding two small trees in the front yard to remove dead wood while they had all of their equipment there, that was a very reasonable $75.00. Their punctuality was excellent in that they arrived when they said that they would, but the responsiveness was a little less than hoped for, in that I had to wait 6 to 8 weeks for the services to be performed. They were very up front about that, so I knew how long I had to wait. I was concerned about the possibility of damage to my neighbor's roof, since this past spring and summer were so rainy that the involved tree was growing even more quickly. When I called to express my concern, my call was promptly returned, and he was able to address my concerns. The high number of storms this season also gave them a high number of emergencies to which they had to respond more quickly. I knew my job was not an emergency. When they did do the job, on the day that they said that they would. I was not able to be home to observe, but when I did arrive home, the trees were beautifully trimmed, and all the trimmings removed from my yard. That honey locust had grown so much, that I had had to untwist my pole beans from a low hanging branch the night before so they could trim it! I have a problem with evaluating the price, since I do not know the usual prices, but they did offer me a payment plan where I could spread the payments over three months, which helped me immensely.
Description of Work: I had a honey locust tree that had grown so big on my small lot that it was shading my vegetable garden, and some of the branches were touching my neighbor's garage roof, and coming very near to their electric lines to that garage. I had this company come out to trim that tree, and during our assessment, we included three other trees that needed trimmed.

This is a great company, I have used them since Louise Radonovich owned the business (before it was sold to Brad Kitchen). They employ certified arborists and take great care of my trees. They have trimmed for me on a number of occasions and have treated my ash tree to try to prevent the Emerald Ash Borer. They are good about estimates, do a good job, and clean up after. I have a maple tree that started to look bad, they looked it over and said it wasn't disease, but the tree was at the end of it's natural lifespan. I hate to kill a tree so they have been trimming the dead parts out and helping me keep it as long as possible.

The owner, a certified arborist, responded quickly to my request for a bid with copies of their license and insurance, the bid and payment options. I very much liked their professionalism with the bidding process and am equally pleased with their work. They arrived the scheduled day, introduced themselves and went to work. And when they finished, there was nothing left; even down to twigs and leaves were swept and taken away. Fortunately for me, I was home they day they came so I watched from my window. These men are amazing in their teamwork, skill and fearlessness. Hopefully I wont need Phoenix Tree Care to remove any more trees, but I will call them to continue to maintain my remaining trees.

This is a great company! There wasn't much of a wait between my initial contact and them coming to my house to provide an estimate for the work I wanted done. Their price was more than fair. I didn't have to wait long from time of estimate received to the time of the work being done. I will absolutely use them again!

They have taken care of my trees and shrubs for years. Every year they come by and recommend what I need in terms of pruning, feeding, and treating for borers and other tree maladies. I pick what I want, and they do the work. Despite all the storms we've had, my trees haven't fallen or dropped limbs. With one exception which is probably my fault because of watering problems, I haven't lost any trees. Right now they're pruning my lilacs to try to repair damage done by an (unrelated) landscaper, so that those don't have to be replaced. They even trim my boxwoods!

I'm actually using this last visit as a reminder of the great work Phoenix has done for me over the past several years. I have them come annually to check my trees and prune and fertilize as a way to keep them healthy and have less damage following some of the high wind storms in central ohio of late. I've had contact with 3-4 men and two women and all have been polite, professional, knowledgeable, and willing to answer questions and explain what they are doing and why in terms a lay person can understand. I find their rates reasonable and am a very satisfied customer.

They did a great job. I've also used other services of theirs and they've always done a great job assessing our tree needs, quoting it out and following through. I appreciate the extra time they take to explain the process. They haven't been quick with scheduling...both times it's taken time to get on their schedule. But their professionalism and expertise is worth it. Sooo much better than the tree trimming vultures that drive up and down the street searching for victims. Well worth the wait.

Would not hire this company again due to the owner being difficult to deal with. Was more interested in taking up for his employees than listening to the customer. He said he thought he gave me a good deal at $3000.00 Might have been a good deal if they would have completed the job.
Description of Work: Day One: Appx 60 ft tree removed from back yard. Took 4 guys all day to cut down and remove some of the wood. We kept 3 truckloads of wood and the mulch from the stump grinding. They all worked hard and were very polite and accomodating. Day Two: Job was being paid for by the hr @$77.00/hr PER WORKER. Two were here approximately 3 hrs. It was mostly one guy doing the work while the other one sat in the shade on a log. I actually thought that he was an apprentice and not qualified to do anything but the "go behind" work, but found out he is a fully-trained, long-time employee. After watching only one work most of the morning, even though I was paying for two, I finally asked them both to leave when they started to clean up the grindings from the stump that they had been told would stay. I discovered later that the stump was not completely ground down. It was actually sticking up out of the ground. Also 2 LARGE logs were left about 36" diameter and 6' long. I called the owner of the business to explain my frustration. He was very defensive and only made excuses for the workers instead of addressing the problems. He claimed that the stump was missed because I had made his workers leave, but they had already loaded the grinder onto the trailer. To me that says they were done. AND he wanted to charge an extra $300 to cut up the logs and take them. Day Three: Sent another worker to grind the stump down that wasn't properly done on day 2. He did a great job. But we were still left with the logs. After not hearing back from the owner, had to hire someone else to come & do the job.
