Sanders Tree & Debris Removal

I had already gotten an estimate of work and called Sanders Tree Service to OK work. Mike Sanders called me on a Sunday evening and scheduled job for following Tuesday. He said he would arrive after 8 am due to the fact that "your neighbors would probably not like chain saws cranking up before that time". He and a crew of four arrived at the appointed time and he went back over what work would be performed. As the men got started, he told me they would probably be there most of the day. They took down a small tree in the front yard, then proceeded to a larger dead tree in the back yard. Mike had them trim low hanging branches from the tree first and pile them up. Other branches higher up were taken down and also piled up. One of the guys then climbed the tree and started taking down sections from the top. When all the limbs had been removed from the main trunk, the guy climbed down. The main trunk was cut and dropped onto the debris that had been pile up below. Mike told me this was done purposely to cushion the fall of the main trunk so to not damage the yard. Makes sense. Next, the men tackled the bradford pear. About a third of the tree was cut back and branches in middle were pruned to allow air to flow through tree. This keeps the branches from swaying in a strong wind. Mike had told me during estimate that the crew would need to get into a neighbors yard and I cleared it with the neighbor before the crew showed up. As the pruning progessed, they went into the neighbors yard, made the cuts, and threw the limbs back over the fence. Before they were done, my back yard was completely covered with tree limbs and branches. It looked like a jungle floor. The work was finished a little after 5pm. When I walled out back to check work, I was amazed. There was not a single branch or leaf left. The yard literally looked like it had been swept. The only indication that work had been done (other than the fact that my bradford pear looks naked for now) was some wood chips left where the stumps had been grinded. I will use Mike again, and I have already recommended him to others.

Sander's Tree and Debris Removal were great. They emailed me the estimate. The lady was very nice.

The previous owners of my house allowed a maple tree to grow up too close to the house in the backyard, and the tree was threatening the foundation. I contacted Sanders Tree and Debris Removal, and Mike Sanders came out to examine the problem. Mr. Sanders is friendly, knowledgeable, and professional. After we made arrangements to have the tree removed, he spotted an issue with one of the big oaks in my front yard. There was a cavity in a large branch near a fork in the tree. I had not noticed this. Upon his suggestion, I decided to also contract to have the limb removed. On the arranged date, Mr. Sanders arrived with his crew. I was impressed with how fast and efficient they were. They removed the limb in front, took down the tree in the back, and cleaned up afterwards. They cleaned up completely and did not leave a mess. The crew included workers who ground the stump, so when the job was done, it was completely done. Once the limb had been removed from the oak tree in front, it was easy to see how moisture had been collecting in the cavity, and how it had started a process that would have created rot within the trunk of the tree. The life of the tree would have been shortened if this process had continued. This proves how important it is to have an expert opinion! I owe Mr. Sanders a debt of gratitude for alerting me to this problem, which is now solved. This was a positive experience in every way, and I give Sanders Tree and Debris Removal my highest recommendation.

We had called Sanders and another company. Sanders called and said that they will send somebody out last Wednesday to give us an estimate, and if we agreed with the estimate, they would do the work that same day. The other people scheduled somebody to come and give an estimate on Friday. Tonja Reynolds and Tommy Cox came out on Wednesday; they are the same people that they send out for all their stump removal/grinding. We agreed on a price, and they did a great job. We were very, very pleased. They are real nice people, and they did the work very efficiently. I stood out there and visited with her, while he was doing the stump grinding. It was great. They told me that if I had any problems with it later or if I didn’t like what it looked like to call them back and that they would take care of it, but it's been great. They had already explained that there would be a little leftover dirt that I might need to fill in if it sunk down. So were prepared for that, and everything is good. We have already planted the seed on it. Their responsiveness and punctuality was good. When I first called Sanders Tree, which I got off Angie's List, she gave me the number to call for the stump removal. I had left a message for them. Then they called me within a couple of days, and then they came out, so that was very good.

I explained what I needed. He gave me the name and number of another company. He let me know that for what I was needing this other company could handle it right away and he was booked out for a couple of weeks. The other company was able to help me next day.

Great company to work with! Mike was very responsive to my questions. He responded to my internet request for an estimate within a few days. They were able to work me into the schedule quickly, and kept me informed on when the work could be done (tricky with outside work because of the weather). He came out and explained to me the process for the tree removal. He was able to identify several additional trees in my yard that were dying or in need of trimming. During the tree removal, he was sure to show me the damage to several trees which to me had looked healthy. He was able to identify issues beforehand, and then showed me what he meant once the tree was down (i.e. he believed a tree was splitting internally, although there was not exterior sign of it. Once the tree was down, it was possible to see that the tree was almost entirely split in half within the bark). The crew was professional, and completed the work in the expected time frame, even with the winds being rather high that day.

Mike and his men showed up on time and quickly had my yard looking fabulous.

They are a very good company. They are very knowledgeable and have been in business for a long time. I would recommend them. I am going to use them next year to trim trees in the front yard. They were perfect.

We called for an estimate and spoke with a real person. Mike came to our residence a day later and provided an itemized estimate for a defined scope of the work. We agreed to proceed. Mike asked that their insurance carrier Email a copy of their coverage for our job. He monitored the weather and within a few days called to suggest a 2.5 day span for the work. (Ideally, temps in the 50-60F, no wind, and no rain are needed for the effort.) The work was completed as planned. For future work, we now realize that we do not even need to be home for the performance of the effort-- unless we want to watch with fascination how smoothly the process proceeds! We paid Mike at the conclusion of the last day's work. He takes checks or credit cards. We highly recommend Sanders Tree!

Was actually here ahead of suddenly available time slot earlier discussed on call. Regarding service on trees, work performed as described and wanted. Very knowledgeable and efficient crew. Very pleased with all work performed. Not familiar with pricing from other businesses of the likes, but for all done and quality of work, seemed reasonable.

I came back from a weekend away (he called me on Saturday to let me know he was going to be there) and the first thing I noticed was that the driveway had a bit more light - then I realized that Mr. Sanders had already done the work and if i didn't know that all those things used to be there, I never would have known they had been removed. He cleaned up so well that there was hardly any sawdust to be found!Overall, Mr. Sanders is a dedicated professional. He called beforehand to let me know what he was going to do and when, asked me and listened to me regarding what I needed to have done, and communicated everything that he planned to to, in detail and with a great attitude. Not only will I hire him in the future, my neighbor is going to as well. He's awesome!

It went well overall. They arrived on time and completed the work quickly. A very good cleanup job was done. It was estimated that the job may take a little over 1 day and a dumpster may be in front of the house for 1 1/2 days. They completed the job start to finish in 1 day and the dumpster was in front of the house for less than 1 day. I would rate the job as excellent except there was some very minor damage done to a landscape bridge that was not pointed out to me until I suggested there might be. I did expect some damage so was not surprised by this given the proxinmity of the trees cut down to the bridge.

i was very impressed by their professionalism. They quoted a firm price for the whole service, they picked up all branches, sawdust etc. I am planning to call him to do more work for us.

I had a large limb fall across my drive way and these guys were out there the same day. Service was very professional and reasonably priced. They took great care to drop the remaining limb so it wouldn't damage any part of the tree.

I hired Mr. Sanders and his crew to trim two oak trees in the backyard of my new home. It is a new home, and the trees had been stressed in the construction process. Mr. Sanders worked around my oddball schedule and arrived when scheduled. His men were efficient and conscientious. Care was taken not to damage gutters with the ladders, they blew out the gutters when finished, raked up ALL the debris, and hauled everything off. They even jumped into my neighbors' back yard to clean a little debris that had fallen across the fence. Best of all...my trees now look great! They are no longer in danger of parachuting in storms, and all of the dead wood is gone. Great experience!

We were very satisfied with their work. They were very nice people. I would use them again.

Every thing went on schedule, work was performed in a professional manner and I was satisfied with a fair price and excellent service.

These guys are fast, friendly, and well priced. I could not have been more pleased with the quality of work.

When Mike came out to provide the estimate, he spent a fair amount of time just explaining how the tree would be removed and that a crane was necessary to perform the work safely. It was evident he was knowledgable and I felt very comfortable with agreeing to have him do the work. Mike and his crew did a fantastic job and he is one of the best contractors I have ever worked with. His hardworking crew left the area was spotless after a long, hot day. Mike was prompt, informative, knowledgable and most importantly - honest. There were no surprises at the end of the day or extra charges tacked on. I would, without hesitation, recommend him for tree work. If I need tree work done in the future, he will be my first call.

I emailed Sanders from Angie's List for an estimate, and Sharon Sanders called me to schedule a time to come out. Mike and Sharon Sanders showed up when they said they would, were extremely knowledgeable, spent a good deal of time identifying their plan for the job, and provided a reasonable estimate. I got two other estimates (one higher and one lower), and decided to hire Sanders based on their knowledge, discussion about taking care of the lawn, and their planned approach. Sanders showed up when they said they would, did exactly what they said, and did an outstanding job of removing the 60 foot fallen tree from our yard. Sanders cut up the tree, removed it from the premises, cleaned up the area, and did an excellent job of of preserving our yard. They did a great job, and I would definitely recommend them!

I was very pleased with the service of Mike and Sharon Sanders and their team at Sanders Tree Service. They did everything that they promised to do and more. The clean up was very thorough as well. I will definitly use them again.

The tree service went exceptionally smoothly. There were no mishaps associated with taking down the large trees. They were careful to put down boards so the equipment did not damage our pool deck nor yard. The clean up after the job was superb. There was good communication about when they would come out and do the work. There were many rainy days that delayed the work, but they kept us appraised on when they would be there. We saught out about five bids for the job and they were the lowest bid so we believe Sanders is an excellent value. Would recommend this company without hesitation.

Excellent. Mike and his crew did an excellent job. I spoke with Mike the day prior to work starting. Mike walked me through what he was planning to do and went over many more recommendations he had for proper care of the plants in my yard. When he left he said he would get to the job within the next 3-5 days. The next morning Mike called me and asked if he could get started that day. After I agreed, he promptly showed up with a crew of 3 men and himself. They worked hard and fast and were incredibly conscientious to avoid any damage to my house, fencing, and/or yard. The crew was very thorough and cleaned the yard and the street, both of which ended up looking significantly cleaner/better than prior to their arrival. I was very impressed with Mike's work and will hire him again when my trees need more trimming and/or maintenance.

Unbelievably great service! These folks say what they're going to do and they do it! Mr. Sanders showed up on time to give us an estimate and even though we left the time for the job open-ended to wait for when he might have another half-day job, he came 3 days later. His crew were fast workers and even though we dealt with wind and on-again, off-again rain, they finished everything on the list, cleaned up the yard better than it was when they started and as noted earlier, even took with them some debris we had accumulated from some earlier bad storms. Mr. Sanders is careful to explain exactly what will be done before a cut is made and the reason why it is necessary. Even though he didn't necessarily agree with keeping one of the trees, he understood our reluctance to let it go and had his trimmer "doctor" it in the best way possible. (He didn't SAY he didn't agree, but based on the condition of the tree, it was pretty evident the tree will have to work hard to make it!) Next time there are trees to be trimmed--or planted--we know who to contact. These folks are good folks and we will certainly be doing more business with them in the future.

The man answered the phone, he took down my information, he looked at the job, and called me back right away with an estimate. He did the work the next day that it wasn?t raining. He got the work done promptly and he did everything he said he would do. I liked him a lot.
