Response from Schwartz Tree & Landscape
I received the Angie's list request on April 15th. On the 16th, I called Mr. [Member Name Removed] and set up an appointment on Friday, the 17th at Noon. I was on time for the appointment. I rang the bell 3 times and there was no response, so I left. Mr. [Member Name Removed] called later that afternoon to ask why I had missed the appointment. I explained, and he said that his son must have turned the bell off on his computer. We rescheduled for Monday the 20th, when I met with [Member Name Removed] and his neighbor Dan. This was a boundary tree, and they were approaching it jointly. I left them an estimate at that time, I have never heard back. I can provide a copy of the estimate if needed.

Excellent experience. They provided an estimate within two days of my email inquiry, and had a crew at my home to do the work within a few days of my response to their estimate. Start to finish for the entire process was less than a week. Crew was friendly, efficient, and provided a great clean-up after the job was done.

The gentleman that came to look at my property was very professional and Honest! His company was unable to perform the service for me due to the need for cranes but he provided me with two other names and gave me some great advice. I truly appreciated the honesty and I did use Stanley tree, a company he recommended.

David and his team did an absolutely terrific job. The tree was located in a very tight location and I was previously told it would not be possible to remove it. However, they had just the right equipment and expertise to work in tight spaces. They spent almost the entire day to ensure the tree was removed correctly. In addition, they were careful not to hurt the lawn or landscaping. The team also did an excellent job cleaning up.

Outstanding service! I highly recommend Schwartz Tree & Landscape. David and crew were on time, kept their commitments, and within budget. All calls were returned promptly and all work was discussed and decided on prior to job completion. David was honest and straight forward and his crew was very polite, professional, hard working and conscientious. The work performed was in a congested neighborhood and involved removing a diseased Maple and Pine and pruning another very tall Pine that was hanging precariously over our house. I would consider this a difficult job which is why we hired a professional. All work was done the same day and the crew cleaned everything up before they left. No personal property was damaged during the work.

David called me at 8 am to set up a same day estimate at noon. He never showed up. At 1:15 he called to say he got tied up and wanted to reschedule for another day. That is terrible customer service. I understand things happen but he should have called to reschedule before I waited for an hour and fifteen minutes. I would never hire this company now. This was not the way to treat potential clients.

[Member Name Removed] is completely right about the time delay. I encountered a repair issue with the spray rig that needed immediate response. As soon as that was done, I called [Member Name Removed] to reschedule. She declined to reschedule.

Beautifully. Dave is very knowledgeable and created a plan for his team to come in and tackle several different tasks in my large mature garden. His employees were not only skilled but helpful and responsive. After a disappointing experience with another arborist last year I decided to use the outfit in my area that was at the top of Angie's list. Thanks for the great Angie reviewers who gave Swartz top ratings. I'm happy to join your ranks.

Highly disappointed on how unprofessional the person (?owner) was that I spoke to on the phone to set up an estimate. When I was unable to make the appointment, I called to reschedule the day before. When I explained that I get out of work at 4pm on that Saturday, I was abruptly told "that won't work". I then suggested anytime on Sunday and his response was "I'm WAY past that!" I then tried to schedule 3 other days during the week after 4pm and he said he only does estimates during the day. I finally asked if early morning would work and he said he has "to get his crew ready". No matter what I said, he replied in a sarcastic, rude manner. It was clear to me that he obviously wasn't going to accommodate me in any way and I guess didn't want the job! My husband has had a successful business for 30 years and will still accommodate the homeowner's schedule to give a quote whether that's in the evening or the weekend. Very poor business and not impressed in the least.

I don,t work past 12:00 on Saturday. I put in a long week, and by Saturday, I have nothing left. Our appointment was scheduled for 7:30 Saturday morning August 26th, because [Member Name Removed] works till late afternoon every week day. I tried to reschedule for early the following Saturday. She stated that she was under time pressure to get her lawn reseeded at the appropriate time which is shortly. I let her know that we were booked a month out. Her last statement to me was; 'I guess that this timing will not work for either of us.' I apologize if [Member Name Removed] took my manner as sarcastic. That was not my intent. I have just celebrated my 71st birthday. I have not done Sunday estimates in over 20 years.

I had a poor experience with the gentleman. In my front yard, I wanted some existing plants that were all dying and looked really poor, I wanted those removed and I wanted new stuff put in. He removed it for $2,000. He told me that we were gonna make plans for what we were gonna put back there before we do the removal. He didn't do that, and then he sprung on me that he wanted to charge me $3,000 to put in the new plants that we finally did decide on. And I just looked at him and I said hey, I'm really sorry that I'm not happy with this. I think you should have told me that ahead of time. We're talking about $5,000, and I'm gonna go get your check and I never want to see you again. I guess it's my own fault; I could have withheld the check but then there would have been a legal fight. I refused to pay $5,000 for the whole thing. That's a ridiculous price. He didn't follow through on his promise to plan out what we were gonna do before he removed everything, so he removed everything and then sprung the new price on me, of the additional. Obviously I knew it was gonna cost more, but $3,000 is ridiculous. I went out and purchased most of the plants that we were gonna put in and it cost me about $650 for all of the plants. So the other $2,350, to me, was just a big **** you. What he could have done better with this service was he could have followed through on his promise to plan out and make an agreement on what we were gonna put in there before removing what was there, and we could have discussed the total price instead of the second half being more than 50% of the first half. So he charged me $2,000 to do the removal, which frankly, is the harder work. And then he wanted to charge me $3,000 to do the install of new plants, and we're not talking about a large area. So he could have been more price competitive, he could have been more forthcoming with the price, and he could have followed through on his plans and his commitment to gain agreement with me on what we were gonna do with the place before we removed it. That might have even generated discussion about the cost, and so I would have looked at him and said no maybe I'm not into it for $5,000, maybe we should scale this back a little bit, or maybe I don't go with you and I go with somebody else, somebody a little bit more reasonable. I liked nothing about the service. The price is a key component of my dissatisfaction. It was a rip-off; that's how I would characterize the price. For punctuality, he was on time; he showed up quickly to take my money. On professionalism, I think you talk about the whole job, you discuss total price, you get an agreement on what's gonna go in, you talk about scheduling; that's all part of professionalism. The man is the owner of the business. He looked me square in the eye and I told him I was unhappy and that I didn't want to see him again. He didn't say oh, can I make it right or do you want to talk about it. No. He was like, that's fine with me; I'll take the check and never see you again. There was no effort to make it right.
Description of Work: He did remove the stuff and he was willing to put the new stuff in.

For all three times, a superb job. I will be hiring the company again early this fall, to trim and shape the Ash tree and a Dogwood tree, both which have grown a great deal. They will also remove some overgrown shrubs and plant new ones, and do landscaping along a fence to a neighbor's yard and in front of our house. Discussing the forthcoming job was the "last contact."
Description of Work: A year ago, removing an invasive walnut tree that was crowding out a big hydrangea tree. Maybe 10 years ago and again maybe 15 years ago, they sprayed and got rid of a fungus on our ash tree.

David Schwartz, the owner of the company came and did the initial walk through and estimate. It is clear that he is very knowledgeable about trees and he had some helpful recommendations. There was one point in our conversation when I felt that David came across a little awkward and discouraging about my ability to trim some small tree branches on my own. But the bottom line, is that his company did a fabulous job, and we were very happy with the end result. I was very impressed with the quality and professionalism of the crew, which was led by Dave (a different David than the owner.) They crew arrived around 8:30 and worked until about 4:00, doing everything that was on the list of jobs. They did an excellent job, and cleaned up so well, you could not tell they had been there all day long (except for the missing trees, pruned bushes, and the ground stumps.) I'd recommend this company to anyone who has tree work and major pruning to be done.
Description of Work: Cutting down several trees, grinding stumps, major pruning/renovation of overgrown forsythia, burning bush, and crabapple tree, pruning and cabling a native red maple tree, and removing two large piles of branch debris I had accumulated.
