The job was completed so fast it was unbelievable! I had to go to work the morning they cut the trees down and didn’t expect for the job to be completed until later in the day. Boy was I wrong! I’d only been at work about 1 1/2 hours when I received a call saying they had the trees down, loaded up, and were grinding the stumps. By the time I got home to pay everything had been removed. There was no sign the trees had ever been there. I couldn’t believe it. I would highly recommend this company for tree work. They were courteous, professional, fast, and very reasonably priced. I’d definitely hire them again.
Description of Work: I had two huge trees cut down and removed from my front yard with stump grinding.

We have hired them before and this DID NOT disappoint at all. Great people to work with and you can barely tell they were there at all as they take everything and clean up the yard well.

They are a great company and very reasonable. They are on time, get the work done and clean up extremely well after they are finished. I will always hire them for any tree work and have recommended them to friends and family who are also very satisfied with their service.

I thought dead limbs were to be removed. Some were. Limbs over hanging roof were removed. Cleanup was good. My son saw several dead limbs remaining. He contacted the gentleman who said they’d be out to look. Never showed. The price was reasonable

Called company the morning of May 15th requesting a bid. Received a call the morning of May 16th with an estimate and approximate day to start work if estimate was agreed to. The price was much lower than I had thought it would be so I agreed to have them do the work. Timing estimate to start the project was later on that day or the next. Got a call around 4:30 the afternoon of May 16th telling me the work was done. The project was done just as I had asked and the cleanup was great. I am very pleased with the company, the work they did, the timing and price. Definitely will use them again.

They are good and professional and you can bargain with them. I usually do it myself if they are not near power lines and they took them that were by power lines and grinded up stumps. Just a whole lot. We've used them a couple times because we like them so much.

We used Watkins Tree Service in 2015 to remove a large sweetgum tree ($1,200) and were pleased, so called them again. They were able to come out the same day and give an estimate which was very helpful. Three men came out the next day to remove the tree. All went great! The job was completed in about 2-1/2 hours which included stump grinding. They hauled the tree away and left our yard clean of debris.
Description of Work: We had a large maple tree evaluated because it was decaying in a certain area and could become hazardous since it was close to our driveway. Derek determined that the tree needed to be removed, and we determined that they would take the wood.

From my first contact with Robert Watkins the owner to the completion of the job, things simply could not have gone better. Derik ,who looked over the work to be done, provided a very fair estimate. And crew chief Jeff made sure all work was done to my complete satisfaction. Will definitely use Watkins Tree Service again if needed. Start to finish just could not have gone better.
Description of Work: Watkins Service Tree recently performed work at our home. There were trees near our home that had become over grown where the limbs were touching our roof. Potentially this could damage our roof and needed to be trimmed back.

Robert came to give us an estimate and was great to work with. He listened to our concerns and gave us good advice about which trees to remove and which to trim. His estimate was fair and included a complete written description of what we agreed to. His crew made sure we were on the same page for what they planned to do. They then got right to work and worked hard and fast. Within 6 hours they had removed 7 trees, ground the stumps, and trimmed about 11 others. They then removed the trimmed limbs, and completely cleaned up the yard. They did an excellent job and left our yard in better shape than they found it.

His estimate was fair and included a complete written description of what we agreed to. One week later, the crew showed up after calling to say they were on their way. 6 guys came, introduced themselves and made sure we were on the same page for what they planned to do. They then got right to work and worked hard and fast. Within 4 hours they had removed 3 trees, ground the stumps, and trimmed about 15 others.

They were prompt, fast and did a great job. All the trees were close to a newer fence we had an nothing at all was damaged or even came close that I saw. They took down the trees, groundout the stumps, did an AMAZING job of cleanup of everything. You can't even tell we had anything done except for the place where our dog digs out the mulch where the trees used to be. We had other quotes and they didn't compare to Watkins. I asked for insurance information and they were very prompt in getting it to us. They explained how the trees were to be taken down and it was actually pretty cool to watch the team in action. I found him on Angie's List and I'm glad to be able to keep up the great reviews.

The price for all the work performed was very fair. We received several quotes and Watkins Tree service was the lowest bid but had a stellar reputation on Angie's list. The work was rescheduled a couple of times due to scheduling mix up and the threat of rain. Work was performed within 3 days of the original date so it was not a huge problem. The crew showed up a little late the day of the job but once they arrived and understood the total job, things went very quickly. I appreciated the care that the crew took to ensure that the rock wall surrounding our flower beds was not damaged. Overall the job was completed as asked and the crew was very efficient and thorough. I would use them again.

Called and left my number and information, Mr. Watkins called me back the next day and scheduled the job. The crew showed up early, did a great job removing a rather large dead tree. Cleaned up and hauled off everything in a very timely manner. Could not have asked for a better job from these guys. I would recommend Watkins Tree service to anyone. Everyone was very professional.

Initially tried to contact company through website but was unsuccessful so contacted the company via phone 48 hours after website attempt. Was immediately called back and set up time for someone to come out to give me an estimate. Estimate was completed the next day and company was hired to return on Friday, May 15. Storms prevented the company from being able to work that morning, so I contacted the company and was able to reschedule for today, Monday, May 18th. Workers arrived 30 minutes early, which was quite convenient for me. Completed the job in one hour. Allowed me to supervise so that everything got trimmed that I wanted cut and nothing I wanted left got trimmed! Very good work!

Watkins was very good. We had good communication. They were able to complete the job without me being onsite for estimate or work. I wasn't concerned they wouldn't do what they said they would and things turned out nice.

All went smoothly. They made quick work out of what appeared to us to be a tricky job. Then they removed all the downed tree from both our yard and the other side of the fence and hauled it away. Estimates we got beforehand were quite a bit higher. The man who first came out, had also included cutting down a shrub in the price. They forgot and my husband cut it down later. Not a big deal.

The company came out on time and took down the crepe myrtles they cleaned up behind themselves. Then I was told that another person would be coming to grind the stumps. We had nine crepe myrtles that were taken out. This is where the problem happened they were suppose to grind the stump 6 to 8 inches, well neither were done, because two months later the crepe myrtles began growing back. So the first crew did a good job, but whoever they sent to grind the stumps did a horrible job.
Description of Work: Cut down some crepe myrtles along our back fence and grind the stumps.
