C & S Tree & Recycling Center

unknown

Everything I asked for was done at a good price.

I have had some tree service a few years back and I am getting ready to call them again and it is C & S Tree Service. It probably has been about 5 years ago and they did a wonderful job. They did a very good job but now it is ready to be done again. They were very timely. They did a really good job and really good clean up. They did everything when they said they would do it. I was very happy.

I needed to have 2 dead ash trees removed, and I had the challenge of coordinating their removal remotely. I called Cand S due to their reviews on Angie's List and due to a recommendation of a friend. They were great to work with. I had marked the trees, they went to the property within a day and provided an estimate. One of the trees was bounded by a fence on one side and was in the middle of several trees that I didn't want damaged - so it required more careful removal. They did the work within two weeks. I was not able to go to the property for another week - but I found that they had done an excellent job in cleaning up the wood, and there was no damage to the other trees in the vicinity. It is refreshing to be able to work with such a courteous, professional, and trustworthy company. I would recommend them to anybody, and I plan to use them again if I need additional tree work done.

They worked well as team - they worked safely as far as I could tell, I saw nothing that concerned me with my (and neighbors) house safety or their personal safety. They did a great job cleaning up. Very professional.

I called C and S on 7/28/2014 and Chad came out the same afternoon and gave me an estimate.....he was 6 minutes early for our appointment :). The work was don 7/30/2014 and was done professionally and the cleanup was excellent ! Would definitely use them again and will recommend.

Cand S was working in our subdivision; so, I asked them for a quote to remove two large pine trees (stump and debris) from our property. They provided a quote on the spot and arrived promptly the next morning to remove the trees. When the receptionist called in the afternoon to ask if we were satisfied, my husband expressed some concern about some large roots that were left but thought we'd be able to manage them. The receptionist was extremely nice, and insisted that the crew come back out and remove the roots. They came early the very next day, and did a spectacular job. We are very satisfied with C and S and will use them in the future for all of our tree service needs.

The short version: They provided a written estimate and then did not do the work. They took a month to schedule, didn't show up, rescheduled, and the didn't show again. The full version (copied directly from my complaint to the BBB): I called Cand S to get an estimate on removal of a dead tree. They came promptly to give me an estimate. I discussed the fact that due to budget I couldn't afford for someone to climb the tree and take it down piece by piece. I explained we were putting in a fence and would be obtaining a loan based on their estimate and the fence estimate and that once we got the loan we would want the tree removed quickly so that the fence work could begin. They agreed to use existing downed storm damage to build a wall over the septic system (to absorb the impact) and drop the tree whole. They gave a written estimate which said and quot;remove oak tree, common level - cut logs 18and quot;, leave lay. Make bed to drop on save septic lids.and quot; Their quote said $600 and a 25% discount taking it to $450 plus tax. This quote was dated 4-28-14. We used this estimate plus the fence estimate to obtain a loan and I called them the next week to schedule the tree removal. They said they'd 'get someone out there'. I requested it be a Friday or Saturday so that I could be home. This was going to be a little more risky of a job than climbing/dismantling so I wanted to be home in case something went wrong and I needed to contain my pets. I didn't think this was an unreasonable request. They said they would make a note of it that it needed to be Fri. or Sat. I did not hear from them for a week. I called again and got the same response that they'd and quot;get someone out hereand quot;. This went on for approximately a month with me calling every week, meanwhile the fence installation was on hold. After a month of this when I pointed out how long this was taking, they apologized and said the would come on Friday 5/30. I took off work/ school so that I could be home and was going to go to work on Sat to make it up. On Friday 5/30 around 10 am I was mowing and one of their guys showed up to look at the tree. He said he had doubts that it can be brought down the way the original guy agreed to. (by dropping it whole instead of climbing/dismantling which was out of our budget.) He however said that they would and quot;get it down todayand quot;. He said they were working another job just down the street and he had to get back over there but that they would be back at my place around 11 or 12. I went on mowing and then at 11 their office called and said that they couldn't get there today. I told her I JUST talked to the guy an hour ago and he said he'd be back today to take it down. She said it just wasn't possible and I'd have to wait till Saturday. Having no other choice, I took off work/school on Sat. I got up early expecting them. Around 10 am, I had not heard anything so I called. They assured me they WOULD be out that day but it would be in the afternoon. By 1pm I had still not heard anything and was worried, given the delay on Friday, so I called again. The office staff said they were wrapping up another job and would be here around 3pm. By 4pm no one had show up or called. I called back and the office staff was shocked that they had not shown up. She said she would call them and call me back as soon as she knew something. By 6 pm, still having heard nothing, I called back to let her know I had to leave the house but that they could call my cell phone and I would return home immediately. I also told her that because of all these delays, if they didnt' come out that evening to do the job, I would have to find someone else. They never called back. My fence contractor (who was delayed because of this too) knew of another company. They came out the next evening. They said they were shocked that anyone would agree to drop the tree in the method Cand S agreed to because it was just too dangerous and would have definitely damaged the septic tank. They came up with a different plan and gave me an estimate for $650. We had to scramble to come up with that extra since it was not factored in the loan but we were able to find it. The other company came out the next day and took the tree down. Bottom line: I would not recommend them because of their refusal to honor an estimate in a timely and professional manner.

Phone answered by a live person. Prompt, courteous and did a nice job.

so, i had a young man trim my bushes in the front yeard, which he did, but did not dispose of the pile of leavings. they weren't going to go into the garbage can - not that they should - and the city only picks up in november. so i was kind of embarrassed to call c and s about a pile of brush, but it was desperate. i had some trouble getting past the secretary who wanted them to come out and give me an estimate. i on the other hand did not want them making 2 trips, and finally convinced her that they should come out and do the job and call me with the price. they came out, took away the brush, and called me to say my bill was to recommend them to someone else. so i am now paying my bill. these guys are awsome!

I called them and came out on Monday night, took the tree down on Tuesday, cleaned it all up, and head it all out of my sight for about few hours. They did a really good job and that's the second time I used them for the same thing. I was very satisfied.

This company was extremely efficient and professional . They cleaned up the storm damages and cleaned up thoroughly after their trimming of the damaged tree. The men that came were respectful of my neighbor 's property as well as mine. I would definitely use this company again!

This is a first class operation. They block off the road. They use bucket trucks. They use all types of safety equipment. They do excellent work.

We just moved to this property in November and discovered on Sunday that were was a whole row of cedar trees that were tied together with rope to keep them from falling on the neighbors fence. We called C and S on Monday for an estimate to remove and stump the trees. They came out on Tuesday morning and gave us an estimate of $600. We were expecting to spend $1000 so we asked them how much more it would be to do some other work we wanted done. We had the row of cedars trees removed, 2 large pine trees, 1 small birch tree and several bushes. They stumped everything as well as some old stumps; all for $1100 and they started the same day. They did an excellent job for a great price. They left the property clean. We will most certainly call them again.

EXCELLENT! THE TREE TRIMMING CREWS ARRIVED ON TIME, WENT TO WORK, KEPT IN TOUCH WITH US TO INSURE THEY WERE DOING WHAT WE WANTED; COMPLETED THE WORK AND CLEANED UP THE YARD. THEY WERE FRIENDLY, COURTEOUS AND COMPETENT.

They're very good. They're all very professional, and their equipment is first line. They have a lot of money into the equipment. I was pretty impressed with them.

They know what they are doing when it comes to a tree; like this tree was close to our house, so they knew how to bring it down without it hitting my house and that was plus, and that's why we were taking it down anyways because we didn't want to wait until God took it down for us. They are prompt, and they do what they say they are going to do. I know them because we used them for another property as well where they trimmed a whole bunch of fruit trees which was a totally different situation, so that's why I say they know what they are doing with any kind of trees or any kind of situation. All they did with those trees that was trim them and they always clean up the mess, and everything is clean when they are gone. They don't leave a big mess. They'll do whatever I want done. I do know that they are very good with their price as I had compared them before I used them.

My husband contact Cand S for a quote the end of July. They were out and left a quote to us within 48 hours. The quote we received was very reasonable. They quoted us to drop tree, remove all brush and unwanted wood and remove stump. We asked them to do job on Aug 30th. We came home after work on the 30th and the tree was down and all brush in front yard. When we came home the next evening they had removed all brush, removed stump and the area in the front and back yard was very clean.

The experience was good. They cleaned everything up and hauled it away.

very well

THEY ARE NICE PEOPLE AND ARE ALSO TIMELY AND PROMPT. THEY ARE VERY PROFESSIONAL AND ARE CAREFUL OF OTHER TREES AND PLANTS. THEY ARE ALSO CAREFUL OF ONE ANOTHER.

THEY DIDN'T CUT IT UP IN TO LOGS OR HAUL IT AWAY BECAUSE WE WANTED THE WOOD FOR OUR FIREPLACE. THE EXPERIENCE WAS GOOD AND THEY WERE CAREFUL OF NOT HURTING THE OTHER PLANTS AND BUILDINGS.
