Description of Work: I chose this company because of their reputation and because they charge by the hour, not the job. I ended up wanting more work done than I thought and they actually accomplished the work in less time than they had estimated and the cost was still under another company's bid for less work.

It took 4 phone calls over three weeks to even set up an appointment. The appointment was for 2:30 on 6/26/2012. I came racing home from work to get home for the appointment. He didn't show up. I didn't bother calling back. I called him in the first place because he got very good reviews here. My experience was not good.
Description of Work: No services at all. He didn't show up for the appointment.

Daniel and his partner arrived early and finished the job early, resulting in a charge $50 less than the estimate. Clean-up was excellent and the result of all the trimming and pruning was beautiful.

He has qualified arborists on his staff and he never tops my trees. He may not be the most inexpensive but they don't make mistakes and I have seen others' trees ruined by mistakes. He always responds quickly in emergencies and they always show up on time. The crew is very safety conscious; I have never seen them without the proper gear on and I respect that. I will continue to use Elwood's Tree Service.

This is the second time we have used Elwood's for pruning a tree. We did not seek estimates from others, so I can't say if Elwood's price was more or less than anyone else. My recollection is it was about the same as when they pruned our Ponderosa Pine about 8 or so years ago. Elwood himself came out and did the estimate. The work was done about two weeks after we got the estimate. A crew of two young men showed up. They introduced themselves, looked at the tree and confirmed with me what they were supposed to do. They got to work; pruned what needed to be pruned; cleaned up all the branches and big limbs which they fed into their chipper. The raked up the small debris and then swept (with a blower) the driveway where they had been working. Items they had to move in the back yard were replaced. I noted later they had been very careful to minimize damage to the plants under the tree (they really did an outstanding job at avoiding damage to the plants). They were done in less than an hour and asked if I wanted to be invoiced or pay them there. I wrote them a check and learned at that time they did not know how much the job was supposed to cost. The lead worker told me Elwood does that so they don't worry about getting the job done in a certain amount of time, that Elwood is more concerned the job be done correctly. I paid them the estimated amount since there were no difficulties or problems. The tree looks happy and I am happy.

I did a lot of research before hiring Elwoods. They were highly recommended by a landscaping business that I have used for 30 years. But I also got bids from two other companies. Elwood bid was the highest and we chose them because we felt they were the best. They did an awesome job. Their crew was all great guys. Very hard working. The trees look amazing. They worked a day and a half on the tree trimming and then came back 2 weeks later to remove a stump. They didn't send out there bill until the job was completely done. The owner was there more than half the time making sure everything was done correctly. They were careful (human safety as well) with how they did their work so that other plants were not damaged. They also spent a lot of time with us in double checking before the cut some of the branches that were providing privacy to make sure it was OK. They even offered to come back later if we decided we wanted more trimmed off in key areas at no cost. They cleaned up the yard beautifully when they were done. They earned their money. I would never use anyone else. Also, these people really love tress. They want them to be both beautiful and healthy. They love their work.
Description of Work: The owner first came out and spent lots of time advising us on what needed to done to our trees. Then came back and trimmed 12 trees approximately 30% trimming, and removed one tree. The tree that was removed also had the stump removed.

She didn’t charge me for the estimate. We wanted to cut down a tree and she advised me on what would happen if they cut it from a certain level. I really appreciated her for that. They were very polite and they responded. I would use them in the future.

I got an estimate in July, before I closed on the house; they honored the estimate even though it was expired. I added and subtracted work from the original estimate, and they gladly adjusted (for, I believe, a fair price). Workers arrived promptly on time, listened to me describe the issues and desires and addressed all my concerns. In one corner I had tree roots that needed trimmed so the gate would work properly -- they even helped skim back some topsoil so it would work! One guy worked from the roof, trimming branches up as needed, while the other climbed up in the tree with the rotten trunk and worked with the chain saw. The trees looked great when they were done (I was afraid they would look like their hair was too short!) -- the climber even went back up to get a branch when I changed my mind about keeping it. Excellent clean-up.
Description of Work: Trimmed 3 maple trees back to lie 10' or more above the roof; removed rotting trunk from Silver Maple
