They explain what they are doing and answer my questions. I used them last year and will be using them again this year. The price is very reasonable and anything can be negotiated within reason.

It was a terribly tricky job. There are houses all behind us and the trees came right up to a fence line. Davey brought in a crane and bucket loaders and carefully cut and pulled out by crane these massive trees. They were absolutely professional, lying plywood across the 1/2 acre of grass they had to drive on to reach the tree line. They didn't damage anything - the grass, the houses next to us, the fence. They showed the utmost professionalism on a very time consuming (two full days plus another day for clean up) and dangerous job. They showed up on time and did a nice job on clean up. They even threw in a few extras, cutting down a neighbors tree limb that was over my property line.
Description of Work: We had Davey cut down 20 or so trees that ran roughly 125 feet across the back of our property. The area was terribly overgrown and unloved with grapevine wrapped around some of the largest trees - easily 4 foot in diameter trunk size and 75 or more feet tall. Many of the trees had splits and none had been cared for in many, many years.

The work was completed by two workers, who spent several hours carefully topping each tree several times as the trees were between our neighbor's and our home. They were efficient, did no damage, hauled away all wood and carefully cleaned up.

I had been using their services for about three or four years because they do such great work. The person that I worked with was Kevin and he and his crew were great to work with and always returned my calls. Whenever I have had work done they don't waste time and always clean everything up and take everything away. They always set a time frame for the work and they have always met that.
Description of Work: They used a cherry picker to trim the top of the trees and a few other and also did all of my spring clean up and landscaping around flower beds including putting mulch down, and this did include the delivery of the mulch.

I was quoted $80.00 per hour (over the phone) for removal of the tree branch which was no longer attached to the tree. I asked that they please evaluate the tree to see if it could be saved. They were very busy that week, which was to be expected, and they finally came 1 week after the initial phone call. When I received the bill it was for $256, much more than I was expecting and I never heard from anyone concerning the viability of my tree. I paid the bill and enclosed a letter with my concerns about the price I was charged and the tree's health. 1 month later I had not heard anything from this company, so I called and left a message. I then received a call from Don who explained that the $256 was a charge for 3 men to remove the tree branch at $80 per hour plus tax. I explained that I thought the quote over the phone was very misleading. He also stated he would send someone to look at my tree.
Description of Work: Normally use this company for my lawn service. I called them to remove a tree branch after the wind storm.

They now have a good system to lock in what you want done during the season. They leave an accounting of what they did each time they visit. I've had several comments about how good the lawn looks since they started taking care of it for me.
Description of Work: I have an annual contract with Davey for both lawn fertilization and tree care. They fertilize/control weeds and grubs, 5 different applications per year, apply 3 disease treatments to crabapple tree and fertilize 2 trees.

It took a few days to return our call and a few days to get them to look at the project. They came when they said they would. They left a note explaining that the trees could not be moved due to a power line, size of the trees, and existing garage. I would give them another opportunity to provide service in the future.

Estimator was prompt and thorough, friendly on the phone.
Description of Work: Had them estimate cost to take out a very tall locust tree in the middle of the back yard - electrical lines run across the back of the property and cable TV runs close to branches on one side - so estimate was $2750 - far more than I expected, but another company's estimate was nearly the same. At least Davey marked the estimate sheet "electrical hazard job" so I had an idea why the amount was so high.

We've used their services for years and originally found them on Angie's List. They're very responsive and reasonable. They've always done a very good job for us. They give good advice as to whether to remove or trim trees. They know what they're doing and are careful with the process.

Davey did a terrific job. This was the second time we used them to remove trees. They have one crew who does the trimming and cutting down of the trees, and a second person who grinds the stump. They were able to trim very large shrubs that we are no longer able to reach.
Description of Work: Trimmed, thinned, shaped several trees, removed a couple of trees and shrubs, and trimmed large shrubs.

The workers were very professional. They arrived and asked permission to pull their truck into the yard so that they could reach the tree from the "cherry picker" that was on top of the truck. One of the workers worked from the "cherry picker" going through the crown of the tree and trimming off all of the small and medium sized broken branches. The other man stayed on the ground and picked up the branches and put them in the truck as they fell. They were very careful not to drop any of the branches into my garden or onto the roof of the house. They did a very thorough and neat job and cleaned up very well afterward.
Description of Work: Davey Tree trimmed many broken branches out of my large white oak tree. The tree was damaged in the September 14, 2008 Columbus, Ohio windstorm.

Some of my trees still get some leaf disease despite treatments. The fertilization seems to have helped most of the trees, except one. The services seem expensive to me. They automatically renew the service every year unless you explicitly ask them to not do some tasks.

The quote was scheduled for two weeks after the initial phone call; quite a while but understandable as I know everyone is busy. In the meantime another company was able to do the work immediately and since the branches were threatening our fence, we went ahead and had them do the work. I DID forget to call and cancel this quote; it was over a week ago that the tree was taken care of! The doorbell ringing this morning was the first time I remembered the appointment. I answered the door and apologized for not calling but the Davy Rep. said VERY sarcastically, "Thanks so much for calling and canceling the appointment," and walked away shaking his head. While I did not call and cancel the appointment, they did not call and confirm the appointment either. The whole experience was an F; better customer service is absolutely called for.
