I tried on two separate occasions to schedule an estimate and they made the scheduling insanely complicated. It shouldn't be such a challenge to schedule a simple appointment. The lady I spoke with told me that they are "very busy" this time of year. I completely understand but I still didn't get a solution that worked for me. The work this company might be excellent or it might be terrible but I simply don't know because they were unable to schedule something to meet my needs.

We had Elwood's cut down a cedar tree, remove the wood and grind the stump. They did a professional job and cleaned up after themselves. We had Ellwood's trim a large maple tree we have aswell in the past and were happy with that experience as well. They are not going to be the cheapest but you get a quality job.

Very professional, responsive and punctual. Cut the trees very close to the ground, nice clean up. The whole job, including putting the trees in a chipper, took 2 workers about 20 minutes for 2 people, so the price doesn't seem like a bargain, but maybe that's the going rate.

The owner of Elwoods (very nice man) responded quickly to a request for an estimate. He came in person to talk about the job. He called to give us a time for the crew to come, and they came on time. They asked a question or two to clarify what we wanted. The crew (more nice guys!) worked quickly and efficiently. They cleaned up the area when finished. They were professional and worked very hard. We were very pleased with our experience with Elwoods, and we would hire them again!
Description of Work: A curly willow tree on our property was cut down. It was leaning over the fence into a neighbor's yard. The brush (branches) were removed, the tree cut down and wood cut into random pieces for our removal (at our request). The branches were put through a wood chipper and the work area cleaned up.

Two to three years ago Elwood's Tree Service trimmed a birch tree in our back yard. They did a great job at a fair price. They suggested that the tree should come out in approx. 2 years. Well that time had passed and we decided to have the tree removed. We did not get estimates from other services, only went directly to Elwood's -- this was my wife's preference. We got an estimate that I reviewed with my wife as well as with one other service which offered a much lower price. To please my wife, we went with Elwood and scheduled a date. Three days before the scheduled date, Elwood called and said that they had to reschedule the date out another 3-4 weeks. This is why I downgraded their punctuality and responsiveness grades. On the new scheduled date they were on time, cut the tree down, grounded up the limbs, did a good clean up job and then pruned our five blueberry bushes.Overall we were pleased with the job done.
Description of Work: Remove one 40+ foot birch tree and prune five blueberry bushes.

Went great. Arrived on time, 3-person crew worked extremely hard, but carefully. Always did a little more than expected - as one crew member said "I like to leave it the way I would like it done if it were my house."

They took the time to listen to what we wanted and checked back with us throughout the job to make sure it was what we wanted. The workers were very polite and clean up after themselves. We are very please and we will continue to use them in the future. They are more expensive than their competitors but they were right on budget with the time they expected the work to take and they worked hard all the time they were on the job.
Description of Work: They removed 1 tree including stump and did 30% reduction through trimming of the rest of our trees. The also advised us on future work that needed to be done with our trees to keep them healthy. We are very picky and wanted more light into our landscaping and we still wanted the privacy that the trees provided.

Great -- we've had Elwood's come to our rental house to remove dead trees and trim existing trees. They arrive on time, do the work, and tidy up afterwards. Elwood's Tree Service provides excellent service, and understand the correct way to trim trees.

I called Elwood's to have the tree pruned up and away from the roof and the brushy overgrowth removed. The office staff was helpful and professional, and made an appointment for someone to come out and estimate the cost to have my work done. The employee arrived on time for the appointment and gave me the estimate, and gave me a time frame when I might expect the work to be done. Two days later -- well within the predicted time frame -- the workers arrived. They confirmed what I wanted done, then did the work efficiently and neatly, and cleaned up and hauled away the debris. I am pleased with the results and the interactions I had with all the employees I spoke with. The job was done to my complete satisfaction. I would call them again if I needed similar work done, and would not hesitate to recommend Elwood's to anyone else in the same situation.
Description of Work: Pruned several branches (3" to 5" in diameter) and some smaller growth from a large blue spruce which was hanging over my roof and dropping needles and scraping against the shingles on windy days. Also trimmed down and removed a small overgrown stand of mixed woody brush.

Arrive early on agreed to date - after estimate done and accepted - I often add "a little" extra job - no problem - best is clean up - I would say landscape is tidier than when they arrive. Visa and MC accepted.
Description of Work: Every year Elwoods prunes large hedge back to where new growth starts. Have occasionally called Elwood with a question about yard trees - most of time he comes by to see my concern - the day I call - great service.
