Excellently. The crew was courteous and very responsive to several minor requests that had not been specified in the bid document. They worked hard and were in and out in a timely manner. The crew chief (Will) made good suggestions on trimming the remaining tree. Clean up was thorough.

I have about 18 trees in my back yard, and they pruned all of the and I haven't had that done before. They took out one dead tree and took out a couple of big branches. It was a lot of work.I would use them again, and I have in the past.

Very well. Work was done quickly and the area was cleaned up very well. Pampas grass is not the easiest plant to handle, but the arborist knew exactly what he was doing and did an excellent job.

Elwood was punctual, professional and friendly when he came to do the bid. Bid was very reasonable so hired him for the job. Job was scheduled promptly. Crew was very punctual and went right to work. Did a great job. Couldn't be happier.
Description of Work: I had two very large apple trees severely pruned back after over 8 years of no pruning, There was a grapevine that was next to it that had crept its way all the way up through the apple tree to the top. Decided to have the grapevine removed entirely. Additionally another 3 smaller fruit trees that were pruned.

They cleaned up really nicely. Although, on the first one, we’re having a wedding in less than a week and so I absolutely want them to not make a huge mess and they took special care to make sure that like wood shaving and all kinds of stuff and then the next things they came out, they cleaned up really nice and did what we needed done to do. They did exactly what I asked them to do. I actually had several estimates and they were the best estimate.
Description of Work: I’ve had them out twice. They chopped down a couple of trees.

We requested an estimate for removing a tree from our neighbor's yard. We had a verbal agreement with the neighbors. Elwood's said they wanted written permission from the neighbors. We just wanted an estimate for comparison shopping purposes. I explained that we would get the written permission once a provider had been chosen. We had an appointment with Elwood's for the estimate. They didn't show up. When I called, Elwood's informed me that they wouldn't even provide an estimate without written consent from the neighbors. This seems a little martial just for an estimate. And they could have told me they wouldn't even show up.
Description of Work: Elwood's did not show up for a scheduled appointment to procure an estimate for tree removal.

Elwood and his employees were the best. They arrived as scheduled, removed both trees within a few hours, and ground the stumps (deep). Took great care of the yard and cleaned up yard and drive when done. My sister-in-law (a master gardener) said that Elwood was best, I agree. Great value for the money spent and could not be happier with this company.

I used them years ago and they did a good job. When I was looking at them I was doing some research and I'm sure our churches landscape committee is getting bids and we are going to have some tree work done there. We are looking at two companies but right now it looks like we are going with Elwood's because of it's a much better bid. I've seen enough of what he's done and I would be very surprised if I was disappointed. I used him five or six years ago and I liked what they did. I have a glass sun room in my back and there was a very big tree behind it, it was like a fifty foot high tree. One major branch broke off and fell into my adjoining neighbor's yard last year. They were there for a day taking down that tree and watched them do those and I was highly impressed with how they handled that. The quote was very good. In a nutshell it was significantly lower than the quote we got from another company. The owner Elwood came by and walked us through and a week later we had the bid.
Description of Work: We got a quote from Elwoods's Tree Service to brush hog a parking lot and also remove a dead tree.

Just as we were getting ready to close our home our insurance required that we remove an overhanging limb or pay much higher insurance rates. There was very little time left before our offer ran out and Elwoods was quick to get someone over to do the written estimate. We ended up leaving the tree and limb and changing insurance but I was very impressed with the gentleman who did the bid and will definitely call them if we decide to get the work done. I put zero for the cost because I honestly don't remember if there was a charge or not. If there was, it was very reasonable or I would have remembered it.
Description of Work: Provided a written estimate of the cost of removing some tree/limbs for insurance purposes.

Elwood came out very quickly after I called to assess the damage. Gave us a very fair estimate to completely remove the broken pine tree from the yard. Came back just a couple of days later as promised and removed the tree in less than one hour. Excellent work as always.

Elwood did the estimate in person & answered all my questions thoroughly & politely. His crew showed up on time, verified what they were to do, and worked steadily. The crew was very knowledgeable as well. I relied on the foreman's opinion for some decisions that needed to be made as they got into the job.
