Description of Work: Jacob's workers came in and trimmed several trees for us; they also removed two Alberta Spruce trees. They did a fantastic job and cleaned up when they were finished. I wouldn't hesitate to use them again.

All went very well overall.
Description of Work: A trees' storm-damaged branches were trimmed off, as well some other dead branches. This is a huge red maple which had 3 or 4 medium-sized broken limbs that were just hanging there dead, broken by the weight of heavy snow in the fall. These branches were too high up in the tree for us to trim ourselves. The service we received was excellent. Our serviceman trimmed off all the broken branches, plus removed other dead branches on the tree. All our questions were patiently answered and he even trimmed a small dogwood tree under the maple that was damaged by a falling branch. Everything was cut up and mulched and our yard was left tidy.

The wet weather and my soggy yard caused a delay since Jacob's was concerned about causing damage to my lawn. Once the ground dried out the job was done. This was a very tight spot and they didn't even get leaves on the barn roof.
Description of Work: Jacob's completely removed a large tree the trunk of which was within a few inches of the eave of a small barn roof. He chipped the small limbs/branches and left the rest for me cut into 18" lengths as I wanted.

A very satisfactory experience from start to finish. I highly recommend Jacob's Tree Service.
Description of Work: Jacob is a skilled, professional arborist. He performed the work as promised and his price was reasonable. He removed one large spruce tree and trimmed another tree that was heavily damaged by severe winds. The tree that was damaged by wind was trimmed in such an artful and thoughtful manner that the overall result was fantastic.... beyond my expectations. All of Jacob's work was accomplished in a timely manner. I would recommend Jacob without hesitation - he is expert at his trade and accomplished in his craft.

Jacob's promptly responded for an estimate for removing two large pine trees,thinning out and trimming a third large pine tree and trimming and spraying a fourth pine tree. A detailed, itemized estimate was left the same day, allowing flexibility as to the services and their individual cost.. We opted for the removal and trimming of the trees with the spraying of the fourth tree to be done in spring.Jacob's was professional and knowledgeable throughout the process.Service was scheduled in a reasonable time. All work met our expectations. The crew skillfully removed branches from between numerous wires and left the area in excellent condition including the back alley which the neighbors greatly appreciated. Jacob's did not remove the stumps of the trees but recommended another service that we used with great satisfaction. We would highly recommend Jacob's and we will be using them again.

Jacob is an experienced arborist and he only recommended work to be performed that required immediate care as opposed to other vendors who tried to "recommend" additional work. We needed this work to be completed as soon as it could be scheduled after we approved the quotation. Jacob actually completed it about one week prior to his original completion date. All the work that was performed was very carefully done and every safety precaution for the workers and our property was very professional. Jacob made some on the job suggestions in addition to the work originally proposed and they were very helpful. Jacob respects the trees he works on and his work reflects the care that he takes with each cut that is made. After the all day job was completed, other than the firewood which he had cut and the tree stumps, you would not have known that any complicated tree limb cutting and felling had been performed.
Description of Work: Two large oak trees had dead limbs removed from their upper branches. Four trees were felled, delimbed and parts of the tree suitable for firewood were cut to length and stacked near the tree stump. Stumps were cut very close to the ground. Care was taken not to have ay damage to nearby trees or property under the trees. All twigs, leaves, wood chips, etc. where cleaned up after the work on each tree was completed.

Jacob was a pleasure to work with. He provided an estimate within one day of my phone call. His price was extremely reasonable to remove a tree in my yard and have the stump ground down. He provided options that I had not considered. My only concern was that I waited a few weeks after submitting the contract, but had not heard back to schedule. It would have been beneficial to know a time frame to expect when to hear from him. After contacting him, he was at my house within the following week. You can barely tell a tree was in the yard. They left the yard spotless. I would recommend his services to anyone in the area looking to perform any tree care; he spoke with such knowledge of his field.

Jacob was extremely courteous, friendly, and professional. He is clearly an expert at what he does and takes his work seriously. He showed up on time and as promised, performed the work as promised, and left the yard as clean (or cleaner) than he found it. His prices are a bit higher than average (hence our B rating) but they are entirely reasonable and worth paying. (If the category were "value for money" rather than "price" I would give an A.) I will use Jacob in the future and highly recommend him.
Description of Work: We hired Jacob to perform quite a bit of tree work in our yard, including trimming some very large trees, supporting/banding some trees, and removing a medium-sized tree.

Jacob is highly professional and knowledgeable. He and his assistant showed up on-time, were thorough and meticulous throughout the entire process. A near spotless clean-up was included. My trees look fantastic. I highly recommend using this caring, owner-operated service over any big high-volume tree service.

We have hired Jacob four times, once to trim and wire our pare trees that keep loosing limbs. Once to remove a dead pine tree and stump, once to remove a fallen tree after a severe storm, and once to plant two new trees to replace those that were removed. Jacob is very knowledgeable and we highly recommend him. We will definitely call him again in the future.

Jacob's sign reads, "Pruning is an Art." After watching him in action, I understand why. He really knows and loves trees and is passionate about the proper care and appropriate growth of the trees. He gave me a bid which seemed high at the time compared to another firm but it was definately not apples to apples. THe other firm I'd contacted had not narrowed in on some of the underlying problems which sent me looking for a tree specialist. His proposal for root-collar excavation seemed over-the-top but after listening to his explanation (and realizing why a few of our trees had died and were showing signs of weakness) and that of Lehigh Valley Extension professionals (I did some research) it did make sense. Our trees were planted when the housing development was built and the planters hadn't necessarily planted the trees at the proper depth, covering the root collar (which I've learned is REALLY bad for the trees); of course, many years of mulching to make the landscape look better was further harming the trees. There were also a few trees that needed some support braces and cables to help the trees continue growing to their full potential and beauty. Jacob and his helper were hard-working gentlemen. Jacob shared his knowledge and love of the trees as he was working. He was very methodical and careful and was up in the trees working hard to perfect his craft. The trees looked great after he was done and the root-collar excavation opened my eyes to see how much trouble some of my trees were in--the landscaping looks better now and I know how to maintain them better. The debris was all cleaned up and collected and I recommended him to my neighbor (who is an avid gardener and mad about her trees too). We were both very pleased with his work and expertise. I can't wait till Spring to see what a difference it makes!
Description of Work: We had 11 good-sized trees (10 year old house) evaluated for health, pruned and also had Jacob do root-collar excavations to ensure proper health of tree. There were also two trees that needed extra support (braces and cables) to allow the tree to continue to thrive for many years to come.

Jacob visited for an estimate, did a thorough analysis of the property and then wrote up a detailed, itemized proposal before he left that day. His price was very favorable compared to other estimates I had gotten. I hired him, he gave me a date a couple of weeks out. He showed up on 9/22 to trim the trees and on 9/24 to grind the stumps. In both jobs he exceeded my expectations. I have already recommended him to a friend of mine and will hire him again in the future

When we called Jacob to come out and have a look at the two trees we needed trimmed, he arrived that night about 6:45 PM, after his day shift to see what we needed and put together a proposal. I received that the next day via email and we agreed that since we were in a hurry he would come out that Sunday to do the work. Yes, I said Sunday. Jacob's work was excellent; fast, professional, exactly as described. He came to get me to make sure I was happy with what was being done. He even took down a small Mulberry tree for just a bit more and offered a bit a free advise on my hedgerow to boot. We are very happy with the work they did and when we have more work to be done, he will be back.
