Excellent. Action came by and left an estimate two days after I called. The estimate included a description of what exactly they intended to do. I called that same day and gave them the go-ahead to do the work. Three days later (after heavy, continuous rain ended) they did the work exactly as described. There was little to no evidence that they had been there except that the tree looked good. All branches, mess was cleaned up.
Description of Work: Action Tree Service removed a number of branches from a large pine tree that were contacting power and cable/telephones lines to my house.

I spoke with the owner over the phone and described that my neighbor's tree had fallen on my house. I was unable to take off work to be there for the tree removal, so he said not to worry and he would take care of it. I came home and the tree was totally gone, and it was so nice to not have to worry about overseeing the work. He even patched 4 holes in my roof from where the tree went through the decking, so that it wouldn't rain into my attic. Later that week I got the bill, and mailed him a check. I highly recommend Action Tree Services, as I had a wonderful stress-free experience with them. They will be my #1 choice for tree work in the future!!!

The estimate process was fine. The person who came out was very nice; nothing really stood out actually. The estimated price for one tree was $500 and the other was about $650. I did not use them; however, I would consider contacting them again in the future.

One afternoon I noticed that our river birch in the back yard had split at a fork high up in the tree. The broken part was still attached to the tree at the fork. The edges of the limb had caught on the roof although most of it rested in the yard. I feel sure this was a result of the wind storm that caused so much damage city-wide in June. All tree companies were very busy and one I called said it would be three weeks before they could come and give us an estimate. The gentleman at Action Tree Service said he would come the day I called (a Friday), and he did, although it was very late in the afternoon before he could get here. He made us a price of $400 and said he could get to us the following Monday. By Monday the limb had slipped off the roof and was completely in the yard although still attached at the fork. Action Tree Service arrived on Monday morning with a bucket truck, a chipper and enough workers to get the work done quickly and efficiently. They cleaned up the yard, raking leaves that fell and picking up small limbs. Regarding the cost, we were told that there is a flat fee of $300 just for bringing all of their equipment out to your house, no matter how small the job might be. Thus, it wouldn't make sense to have them come out unless there was sufficient work to justify the $300 cost. We felt $400 was a little steep, which is why I assigned a B to Price. However, I would still use this company again.

They were very responsive. Because the tree was leaning against the neighbor's tree, we wanted to get the tree down quickly. They came within a day or two. They set up their equipment and took the tree down in a few hours. They chipped it up and left it so we could use the material for mulch. Overall, they did what we asked, did it quickly, and were on time. We plan on using them again to take down another tree.
Description of Work: We has a tree leaning against another one that made it more difficult to cut down the tree. It was a pine tree about 40 feet tall.

They were very responsive, and I liked them. It was a busy time because a large storm had blown through and done a lot of damage all around the city, but they were prompt and got here within a couple of days when I called them. I wasn’t home when they did the work, but I dealt with the owner; I had used them about a couple of years ago, and I knew that they were a good company. A couple of other companies had called me, and Action Tree Service Inc gave me the best deal. I would rate them highly and would use them again in the future if necessary.

I have several trees that need attention at my house and Michael came out to educate me and give me advice and an estimate on all. I have to do a little at a time and he helped me make my priority list. I have a huge oak tree that was planted about 3 or 4 feet from the back east corner of my house. This tree is very healthy but had quite a few large branches over my new roof and some very near my neighbor's house. Michael suggested crowning this tree and the results of his work is amazing. I look forward to working with Michael and his team in the future. They are punctual, professional and all seem to get along so well together as a group. It is refreshing to see this type of interaction. Awesome job guys!

They said they would have to wait until the first frost to finish it off. They were very professional. The estimate was a bit high. I am considering using them after the first frost if they will negotiate a bit with me because the price was a bit high. I liked them.

A tree fell during a thunderstorm and settled gently onto our household power line. I called Action Tree Service and they were here within hours to have a look at the problem. I loved his estimate, very reasonable, so I told him to go ahead and remove the tree. Action did a fast job of getting the tree off of the power lines, cleaned up the mess, and were out of here to another job before the electrician arrived for his appointment to a**** the damages to the lines and power connectors. Very nice people, very pleasant to deal with, and very professional tree service. Over the years I've used several different tree services, each did the job passably, but there was nothing special about them. Indeed, some of those other services acted like they hired their people off of street corners before coming to the house. Not so with Action Tree Service, these guys are keepers. I asked them for a business card and put it right into my card file for future reference, I'll never use anyone but Action. I very highly recommend this business to all members.

Needed to have a huge cedar tree removed. The branches were touching the house. I received a call saying the 2 men were on their way. Checked with my next door neighbors to see if they could pull their truck onto their driveway. Job was done neatly and cleanly. Price was about the same as other estimates I had received, but I liked the communications leading up to the job and now that they've completed the job, I would definitely use them again. They did the job in over 90 degree weather. I never thought they would even attempt it at that temp.
Description of Work: Very professional. Great communications. Will definitely use again.

I have had them work for me twice and they have done excellent work. Their price is reasonable. The man who came for the work was very punctual. He came when he said he was going to be here. He brought a crew of guys who knew their jobs. They were very professional. When they cut down or trimmed the tree that I needed to have work done on, they cleaned up and the placed looked better that it did when they started. Like I said, all of them were extremely knowledgeable about trees. I would recommend them to others.

It went great. I call Action and Michael was at my house just hours later. He gave me a very fair estimate (I got 3 others - two were $100 and one was $1000 plus more). I decided to use him because he was a good and honest man first and because he was the only one licensed and bonded second. He didn't show up for the first date to take the tree down but called before the appt. to tell me he couldn't make it because it was raining heavily and he couldn't work in the rain (understandably). He was always there or called in advance when he was supposed to me. When the job was finally done he had done exactly what was promised. I definitely will use him again and I have recommended him to our home owners association also. If all companies operated the way Michael and Action tree service do this world would be a much happier and less frustrating place. Thanks Michael for restoring my faith in humanity.

The owner, Mike, verbally agreed to work and then did not complete. Later, he said that he didn't agree to a specific tree, but was simply "leaning against it because I was tired." He took advantage of my wife while I was not available to discuss. Later on a voice mail, he stated that he would "come back to your house and dump the tree in your yard." Finally, I got him to agree that there was a misunderstanding, which he finally took accountability for and I paid him a reduced amount to put the situation behind us.

Mike at Action Tree Service was professional from day one. He seems to take pride in communicating what the plans are. He would proactively call me and discuss when the trees were going to come down, and he was good to his word. His team worked well together in some treacherous conditions. He even did some free work for my neighbor when she let him use her driveway to get to my trees. I have a little more work to be done and I won't hesitate to use his services.
Description of Work: He removed 10 trees and cleaned up the limbs and branches of many others from my ravine lot. He and his team spent 2 hard days clearing almost all the debris on my property.

Action Tree Service did such a good job the first time that we hired them that we did not hesitate to call them to come back for additional work. Michael May shows to give an estimate very quickly. His men show up knowing basically what they need to do, but are very open to changing instructions and doing additional work. The same men were here from the first time that we had work done. These men are always extremely good natured and pleasant. They are very professional and do exceptional work. They can not get their bucket truck or chipper in the back yard, so they have to climb trees and drag all brush through the back yard to the front, making their work a little harder. We highly recommend them and feel very fortunate to have found a company that we would trust to work in our yard even if we were not home.
Description of Work: Took down a dead maple tree (25-30 feet tall), chipped brush and hauled away wood from tree and ground out stump. Trimmed back a crepe myrtle (25 feet tall) below the gutters on the house and trimmed it away from the side of the house, chipped brush and hauled away wood. Climbed and trimmed 2 bradford pear trees (25-30 feet tall) and chipped brush. Chipped minor brush that we had piled up on the property.

We used Action Tree Service for the third time in 16 months. We do not call anyone else when we need tree work done. We have several trees planted in areas where they are continually needing to be trimmed away from power lines or the house. We do not want them drastically cut back, so we have the new growth cut from them periodically. Michael and his men can be counted on to show up when they are supposed to and do great work when they get here. It is actually amazing to watch the way that they work climbing huge trees and having them fall where they want them. The larger pieces of the 80 foot tall tree had to be taken by wheelbarrow a long distance through a gate to the front yard. The smaller limbs and brush had to be thrown across the fence into the front yard and dragged to their truck and chipper. They cleaned up the front and back yards when they finished. The same 4 men have been with Michael May for at least 4 years and they work very well together. They do not require supervision by Michael and are very pleasant to work with. We highly recommend them and have already planned for them to return in February 2011 for additional work.
Description of Work: Cut down a 20 foot dead spruce tree, trimmed a 60 foot pin oak tree at the power lines for a second time, took down an 80 foot tree in the back yard, trimmed 2 crepe mrytles, removed all wood and chipped brush.

We waited months for another tree company to show up as promised to trim limbs of a huge pin oak tree away from our electricity, phone and cable lines. All the while we were getting notices and visits from the local utility service that they were going to trim tree limbs drastically from the tree and their subcontractor even said that they were going to cut it completely down. (That tree service actually called two months after the work was done by Action Tree Service to say they were coming to do the work. That would have been 4 months after we called them.) When we called Michael May to explain that we were going to lose the tree if it wasn't cut before the utility company showed up, he was here within 3 days to do the job. He would have trimmed the tree to my instructions, but he offered his advice to trim more of the tree to make it look better. He was right and his men did an excellent job. I requested that they trim 2 crepe myrtles while they were here and they did not hesitate to do it without charging much more money. He sent enough men to complete the job quickly and cleanly. They did every thing that was promised and we could not have been more pleased.
