GARY'S TREES

HORRIBLE!!! They left a HUGE mess, and they had the AUDACITY to violate my First Amendment rights by erasing part of an anti-Trump sign I have in my house. DO NOT USE THESE PEOPLE!!!!!!

Called three times and never had the courtesy to return my call. What a way to conduct a business!!!

I didn't like this company. It wasn't particularly expensive. The price was good.

If you're looking for cheap, this is the company to use. If you're looking for professionalism, find another company immediately. Because I work during the day, my neighbor was in contact with Gary and Sons Tree Service and scheduled removal of a dead tree for me. The work was done two weeks after promised. Also, they broke two boards on my deck and have yet to contact me to replace them (I had the work done three weeks ago). (Fun fact: Not only did they break two boards on my deck, they also moved my table over the broken boards, so that I couldn't see them at first glance.) Apparently, Gary speaks highly and is incredibly proud of the clean up. I'm not sure why since nothing on my deck was put back where it was found, there was saw dust all over EVERYTHING (deck, furniture, lawnmower, grill, etc.), and they left trash in my yard (two empty bottles (one was Naked Juice and one was a Starbucks Doubleshot)). The cleanup was so nonexistent that when a contractor came to my house the following Saturday (four days after the tree was cut down), the contractor commented how unprofessional and unacceptable the mess that Gary and Sons Tree Service left in my yard. Not surprisingly, I can't get in contact with this business, but I will be filing a complaint with the BBB and possibly taking them to the magistrate to get my deck fixed.

I called several times during normal business hours and never got a response. I left a message, and it was never returned. I ended up calling two other tree services who were both immediately responsive. I can't comment on Gary's Tree's quality of service, since they were impossible for me to get in contact with.

Most of the work was completed - except for the clean-up. They left piles of dead branches and weeds which they were supposed to remove. My Mom is 79 and there is no way she would hire someone to cut and clean and then leave all the mess, which is what they did. The cost for their work was $250 - very high for the small amount of time they spent on the job. Anyway, my Mom has called Gary's Trees repeatedly since then and received no response. In addition, I called Gary's Trees about two weeks ago and left two detailed messages with no response. My Mom doesn't mind waiting for them to return to complete the job but there has been no contact with Gary since he was paid.

Gary and his team came over as scheduled and completed the job within 2 hours. After 30 minutes of careful planning of all the steps and how to safely carry them out, each member of the team precisely carried out his responsibilities professionally and accurately. Besides cutting off all the dead branches, they saw cut them into logs for use in our fireplace. Upon completion of the job they left the front and back yards clean and tidy. In summary, this contractor is very professional and reasonably priced, punctual, extremely experienced with tree-cutting and all the demanding safety aspects associated with it and willing to please. We would recommend the use of this contractor to friends and neighbors without hesitation.

Gary and Sons Trees was awesome!! I called and the next day he was at my house with a quote which was almost $1000 cheaper than the other 3 that I got. Him and 5 other workers arrived on time and got right to work. As the tree was taken down, they carried the wood to the back of my house and stacked it. They were constantly raking and cleaning up the yard. He has an amazing team and were very respectful. Highly satisfied customer for life and would certainly recommend to anyone!!!!!

They gave me the best bid, got the job done as agreed, and ahead of schedule. Gary seemed more knowledgeable about trees than the other tree guys I got bids from, and was able to advise me on the best way to solve the problems.

All went well and I would call him again.

, Gary and his sons came about 7 weeks later, without calling. He must not have looked at his note as regard to my specific instructions. He did the complete opposite of what I wanted done. The shape of my tree was ruined as he removed vital limbs. My landscape was ruined as the tree limbs were shaped perfectly for the spot it was in. Also, the privacy of my yard and family room was now completely gone. I did not pay Gary for the work that he did. I did have to have a privacy fence installed as I live on a busy street.

The experience overall went well. He was slightly delayed in starting the project, but he did everything I asked and I was very satisfied with the work. I would call Gary again if i ever needed any tree service.

He arrived at 9:30am and had everything done by 12:30. The tree was abouit 25 ft tall and quite big, every storm we had I was afraid it would take my wires down. Gary did all the climbing and the four men with him did the clean up. They kept the road open and cleaned as they went. It was amazing watching them take it down. I am very satisfied. If I ever need a tree taken down again I will diffently call Gary.

They did a good job overall.

It went extremely well. Gary always returned my calls promptly, demonstrated an advanced knowledge of his trade, and had his credentials and insurance information in order. I surveyed about six different companies for the removal of this tree, with Gary's price being the lowest, and another popular vendor's being over $3100.00. Most arborists fell towards the high end. I was somewhat skeptical of the price, but Gary's labor force consists mostly of his sons, and he has very little in the way of overhead. He was very transparent on his costs. I was impressed with his work ethic, and that of his family. During the time he was taking the tree down, he rarely paused for more than a 5 minute period, working constantly, and very safely. Gary does not take credit cards, but does accept cash and checks. As you would expect, a receipt is provided for your transactions. I have successfully used his services on 2 other jobs since and been satisfied.

Gary provided and estimate, we agreed. Within three days Gary and his crew came out, removed the large tree from the front and trimmed the maple in the back. All debris were removed. Workers were polite, professional and friendly.

Due to a storm on 09/22/10 a very large branch from a neighbor's tree (2 yards over) fell into my driveway and damaged a metal awning. I called on Friday, 09/24 to get an estimate, Gary arrived on Saturday evening between jobs. Gary arrived on Sunday, 09/26, late afternoon, removed the branch and cleaned up the driveway of all debris from the storm. Because of the storm, many trees were down in the South Hills area. I was pleased that Gary could fit us in between jobs to clear the driveway so we could get our car out.

They did an excellent job and the pricing was very reasonable. He showed up and said he would get to it and he did. He did a professional job and was very careful and did not break anything, and it was a nice experience. I think he was in the neighborhood and he saw that the tree was getting out of control and he put a card in my door. You have to give him credit for working hard and getting new business.

Trimmed large tree in backyard which went very well ($950). We asked Gary to return to remove dangling limbs from a tree in a backyard we share with two neighbors. Gary gave us a quote of $150.00 for this minor job. After completion, he sent one of his assistants over with an invoice of $325.00, though he never informed us the job would cost more than his original estimate. We would not have asked him to this had we known it would cost $325.00 since the affected tree is actually on a neighbor's property. He did not stick to his original estimate, which is both unprofessional and dishonest.

I was very pleased with the work that they provided for me. They were on time and they did a very good job. I also think that they charged me a very reasonable price. It took them a lot of time to finish the work, but that was because it was a huge tree.

GARY WAS VERY NICE. HE DID THE JOB RIGHT AWAY. HE AND HIS WORKERS CLEANED EVERYTHING UP. THE PRICE WAS BETTER THAN 2 OTHER PLACES I CALLED.
