The estimate was prompt, courteous and professional. I did have to call to get the service going as time was passing in the fall. I did better calling the person who gave me the estimate. The service person did not call me back. They seemed to do a good job. I was sceptical as to whether the grass seed would come up but it did. They did not loosen the surface, as i do for great results, but some seed did some up. Would have been stonger if they loosened the soil but perhaps the pros do not do this. Its time consuming but gives a great result. So..I'm satisfied iwth the service.
Description of Work: I had my lawn aerated, overseeded and fertilized using natural fertilizer. I was looking for someone who offered natural or organic services. I now have a maintenence agrrement for fertilization 6x year. Did a good job. I usually do my own lawn work so I am versed in process. I did have to call a copuple of times to get them started asap. They were responsive but it took a few calls. Hopefully I'll be in the loop now.

The men who came did a remarkable job. The tree was beautifully trimmed and shaped. We were asked to inspect the work to be sure that we were satisfied and then they completely cleaned up the debris. The cost was definitely to our satisfaction. I would certainly recommend Giroud to others.

They did a great job. Rob came out to give us an estimate and describe the work they would complete. They needed to schedule the work with PECO as some of the trees were near power lines. I was happy to see that they were so concerned with safety. Rob communicated the expected start date to us and called to remind us before the day. I was very impressed with the amount of work they completed in one day. Out backyard grew by about 20% with all the over growth that was cleared.
Description of Work: We had a large Black Walnut tree trimmed in front of my house. In the back of the house, we had two trees removed and five others trimmed. Giroud also cleared out the perimeter of the property removing weeds, vines and other growth. They even left me a nice pile of firewood.

I received an estimate from Rob an Arborist from Giroud who said I would be given a 24 hour notice before they came out to do the job, which he did. I changed my mind several times about the services I was going to have done. Rob could not have been more understanding, nor patient with my calls; he was very professional and nice to deal with. The crew arrived on time and got to work immediately.They were very professional and careful with regard to the rest of the property. They executed the job quickly - they arrived by approximately 9:15 and were done by noon. The crew was very personable, knowledgeable and pleasant to do business with. I highly recommend Giroud Tree and Lawn Care and will be hiring them again in the near future.
Description of Work: Giroud: - removed a large Maple tree from our yard at the end of our driveway. - ground the stump and removed the chips - removed all debris .

I made an appointment to have my trees inspected and trimmed by a professional. Erik Rodgers came out to my home at a time that worked for me. He was punctual, professional & honest. He explained how they would do the work & what they would look for. I also got estimates from two other companies, they were all around the same price but I was most comfortable with Giroud. They called the day before they would schedule the job to make sure it was O.K. They scheduled the trimming and Inspection for Thursday and stump grinding for Friday and gave me a approximate time they would start. His three man crew went right to work, one man went up in the trees, while the other men cleared the area of the trimmings and ran them into the chipper. When they were done they raked and cleaned up. We walked the job over and everything was completed to my satisfaction. The following day they ground the stump. I was very happy with the job that was completed on time and budget.
Description of Work: I wanted to have two very large Pin Oakes, two older Dogwood trees inspected & trimmed. I also wanted a Sweet Gum tree removed & the stump ground.

Rob came out promptly to give us an estimate. Giroud was also able to accommodate our needs by coming out one week early to get the job done so that our fence could be completed on time. The tree work was done as requested and there was no need for cleanup.
Description of Work: We needed to have a tree removed along with weed tree roots and large hedge trimming prior to the installation of a fence.

Called Giroud to come out and provide an estimate for some tree work I wanted done. Spoke to their secretary, gave her my info, and she said one of their arborists would call to schedule a time and date. Got a call within a few hours and scheduled for the following Monday. A few days later I received a call from secretary calling to reschedule as the arborist I had scheduled was due to go on vacation. Not a big deal... we should all be able to take time off. Gave them an A overall because they were completely honest and called to let me know what the deal was. I did not reschedule as I had 3 other companies scheduled to come in, but I would definintely call Giroud again in the future for estimates. Can't say whether they do good work or not, or if prices are fair, but they were professional and considerate of my time and schedule.

Called and set-up an appointment for an estimate. The estimator came out and was pleasant and understood what I wanted done. He left me an estimate. I decided not to use Giroud only because of the three estimates I got, his was the highest. If I need this type of work done again, I have no problem in getting another estimate from Giroud.

They met the schedule and did the work agreed upon. I am very pleased with this company and would use them again and would also recommend them to anyone.

Had estimate done for pruning 10-12 pine trees and some general yard clean up. Person that they sent was punctual and professional. Seemed competent. Price was way, way out of line. They quoted $7,000. Other quotes for the same work ranged from $1,500-$3,000. I can't say for sure but I think I got a price jack up because of the neighborhood I live in. Won't be calling them again.

They are fantastic. They have been excellent. I had an emergency in 2010 and there was lot of tree damages. They came immediately and I have been using them ever since for tree work, cabling, pruning and everything. They are very knowledgeable and are very good. They were here whole day long and did a fantastic job. I have recommended them to my niece. I didn’t have anything to compare their price but I thought it was reasonable.
Description of Work: I use Giroud Tree & Lawn Care for tree service, lawn and yard work. The last time I used them was in September of 2012 for spinning and taking out the dead wood from huge trees from our property, cabling the magnolia.

Overall a good experience from the quote process to the guys who did the work. They also trimmed a few trees for my neighbor at the same time and they were also happy with the work.
Description of Work: We had a pear tree come down during a snow storm on Saturday,callled Giroud on Sunday, and they were at our house on Monday morning to do the work. Extremely fast and great service. In addition to removing our pear tree, they also trimmed two additional trees. I think it was a bit expensive but we needed the tree taken care of quickly and I guess you pay more for emergency service. They did remove a part of our fence to take the tree out and replaced everything as it was.

I called on a Friday, they came out to give an estimate that Monday. Scott was on time, very professional and informative. Originally stating they need two to four weeks to schedule, when he learned of my impending construction and time constraints, he called later that day and had me scheduled for the very next day. Bill arrived the next day, he was very professional. His crew did a great job, they were quick and cleaned up as well. Super pleased with their work.
Description of Work: Cut back two tree in my yard that were well over grown and one was against the house causing other issues. Both were thinned out on the inside and trimmed, pronouncing their beauty, rather than the unkempt look they were previously sporting.

Last fall he refused to trim the tree because it was in my neighbor’s property, but they extended over 28 feet into property. Now the limbs have ripped off into my property. They made a mistake because now because the limbs have fallen off and is probably is dying; it would have been fine if he would have just trimmed the limbs. It would have fine if he just would have trimmed the tree. Then a couple weeks ago I called, and this lady answered I told her what my problem was and she told me that they would be contacting me. They never called so then I had to contact them again and they were supposed to come Thursday, but no one came out and I haven’t heard from them.

Response from Giroud Tree & Lawn Care
We were very sorry to learn that the member is disappointed with our company. It is important to know that the member did not hire us to perform any work related to this tree. We have done work for the member in the past and he has always been happy with our service. When we discovered his dissatisfaction, we immediately contacted him and visited his property. As background, several months ago, our Certified Arborist, Drew Slousky, met with the member to discuss the Mulberry tree which belongs to his next door neighbor and hangs over his yard. The member wanted us to prune the Mulberry tree back off his yard. Drew advised the member that since we would have go into the neighbor's yard to perform the service he would need to get permission from his neighbor for us to work on the tree. At the time, the member decided not pursue having the work done because he did not want to contact his neighbor to get permission. Following Hurricane Irene, the member called to say that limbs had fallen into his yard but had not damaged his property. He indicated that it was not an emergency but he would like Drew to evaluate the situation. Recognizing that it was not an emergency, we explained that we would be out to see his property within the next two weeks since we were working through the weekends to help homeowners faced with tree emergencies. When Drew visited the property just one week after the member's call, he found that the neighbor had already contracted to clean-up the tree damage. Giroud has received the Angie's List Super Service Award every year since 2005 and our reputation means everything to us. One of our core values is to always do the right thing no matter what. We talked extensively with the member to find some way to make him happy. Unfortunately, he has told us that there is no way to make him satisfied. Even though the tree didn't belong to him, the member loved the tree and feels that someone has to be blamed for the loss. While we sympathize with the member, his F grade is unwarranted and unfair in light of the fact that he does not own the tree and we were never contracted to work on it.

Just super, came on time, trimmed P**** Willow, still made it look like a tree. Did a great job of cleaning, including some old branches that were broken off and laying on ground. Giroud,s crew were terrific and did the job in a very short time, worked from the minute they got here to when they left. Giroud is the tree people you want to do your work, even gave me $50.00 off for being an Angie's list member.

The crew showed up on time. The foreman, Dave, came to the door, introduced himself and started working with his crew. They were finished with the trees and the cleanup by lunch as planned. We were very pleased with all aspects - the people, the work and their follow-up. I would definitely use Giroud again.
Description of Work: We had a Sweet Gum Tree with a broken limb so we needed to clean up the mess and trim the limb back to the trunk. Additionally the tree needed pruning to clear dead wood, low hanging limbs and heavy limbs that were close to the roof. Rob Poley from Giroud met with me. He was pleasant and professional, Because we had a large oak that also needed maintenence, Rob gave me an estimate for both trees that I felt saved us considerable money. We had estimates from two other companies with which to compare.
