Description of Work: The person who came to my house to give me a quote sat in his care then left. When I called him to ascertain of he was coming back, I received no response. This is very unprofessional behavior. I would never never recommend this company. About $4 -5000 of work needed to be done. Apparently this didn't appeal to the man who was sent to me. I never did get his name.

Description of Work: The service was wonderful. Three large, mostly dead pines were cut down, a large cherry overhanging a neighbor's roof was cut down and maintenance and cabling on two large maples. All work was done safely and clean up was great. Everything was done in 1 and 1/2 days. Thank you so much for all your hard work and I would recommend your business to anyone.

Description of Work: Called Lyle Blum to trim a pin oak that was encroaching on the house. He came out in a couple of days to give an estimate and explain what he planned to do. Some of what we wanted was not appropriate for the tree's health and he explained why. The estimate was clear and comprehensive. He returned at the agreed-upon date to perform the work. We were concerned that trimming the tree could damage some of the newer landscaping but nothing was damaged. His team cleaned up everything and the area was left just as it was before they started. We could have gotten the job done cheaper but I'm certain it would not have been done as professionally and the area cleaned so thoroughly. A professional outfit.

He was punctial, and I was very pleased with his work. He cleared a path for me to get to my garage even though this was not part of the job. His job is to drop the tree/branches only. The customer is responcible for the clean-up as was made quite clear to me during the estimate. If you need a professional Tree Climber,and you have the means to clean-up the debris, I highly reccomend Lyle. The price was right, and when you meet him, you'll know he's the man for the job.
Description of Work: I contacted Lyle with no prior work history with him, (My former tree climber retired). He returned my call within 24 hours, and I met him for an estimate within two days. He informed me that he didn't work weekends so he could be with his kids. I respect that! He also looked at some work that my neighbor needed done. We hired him within two weeks of the estimate. He removed large branches from three oaks that threatened my house and the neighbors fence without any damage. He also pruned an oak that shaded my deck... also with no damage to the roof or the deck.

I was very satisfied with his service and am glad he is in business.
Description of Work: I called Lyle on Monday and he was promptly at my house (on time) for our following Friday appointment. I have 2 problem trees, one I hoped to save and one I wondered how long it could safely survive. He spent an hour looking at my trees, explaining options, answering questions and providing a clear and itemized estimate. His prices seemed reasonable and were less than a previous company that I'd used last year. He said he's been in this business for 20 years. He is also an arborist, which was needed since one of my trees has a birch boring disease and requires more specialized care. Anyway, I'm still deciding whether to sink the money into saving the tree or cutting it down. It's a hard decision because cutting it down is cheaper. In any case, I use Lyle when I make my decision. He even made a follow up call the next week.

Our experience with Tree Climber for Hire was exceptional. While working through the initial estimate Lyle was very knowledgeable about the tree work that needed to be done in such close proximity to our home and offered expert advise on the trees that we wanted to save on our property. He was patient when explaining the health of each tree and how to care for and maintain them. While his services include insect and disease control for trees and shrubs he was very honest in assessing that our trees were in good health and advised us on what to keep an eye on going forward. The quote that I received was 1/2 that of any other service that had quoted the work. The day of our service Lyle and his assistant arrived punctually early that morning and began working immediately, stopping only briefly for lunch. They were professional and mannerly and most importantly paid extra close attention to the safety of our small children as well as our home. Once the tree work was completed all debris was cleared and our yard was left exactly how they found it (minus a few trees). The entire job was completed in the time frame that was anticipated and we were charged exactly what we were quoted, even though some of the work was more involved and extensive than what was originally thought. I would absolutely recommend Tree Climber for Hire to anyone needing help with their trees!
Description of Work: We recently purchased a home that had several large large oak trees extremely close to our house that were overgrown and a concern to the structural integrity of our home. We had 2 large oak trees as well as 2 smaller trees completely removed. We had the limbs of 5 other trees cut back away from our house. We had one large stump grinded. The wood from the removed trees was left and cut into small pieces, stackable for firewood and all other material from the trees worked with was disposed of.
