They did great. We had a soft ball game that afternoon, but they showed up exactly when they were supposed to. They started the work and when we got back, which was a couple of hours later they were totally done. They cleaned up very well. The only reason we knew that they were there was because they were there when we came back and because the trees looked better. The price we paid was $800 or $900 and we thought that it was ridiculously expensive. We used them again because we had the trunks of two trees entangled and we wanted one of them taken out. They trimmed that tree, but did not take that one down that we wanted to have taken down. We called them back and literally within 24 hours, somebody came over. They let themselves in the back yard and did what they needed to do and did not even bother us. They did a really nice job cleaning up.
Description of Work: We used Bartlett Tree Experts -81112 in the fall of 2007 and they trimmed the trees and removed a couple of trees from the back.

I usually use their services every year, but I didn?t use them last year. They are great. There?s a one time price that I pay. I have a lot of trees in my yard and I have them cut 2 or 3 trees at a time. I didn?t use them last year since I got all the trees cut by then. I spend about $500 for just cutting and I feel that?s pricey. Jim Seng is the man who owns the company. He is fantastic. He is very knowledgeable. The only drawback would depend on what you want. He has great people and he oversees them. I have had people come out to give me a quote and tell me things, but they are not there when the guys cut the trees. Jim Seng is always here when his guys do the job and he has excellent people. They are good and you get what you pay for. They are arborists. The price is good I guess, but I wouldn?t be able to comment on it much. I would definitely use their services in the future too.
Description of Work: I use the services of KS Green & Company in the spring for cutting trees. My last interaction with them was in March of last year.

We had a few large branches break off a large Bradford Pear tree in our front yard and requested a quote to remove the tree, including stump grinding; and to prune all the trees in our yard. Besides taking down the Bradford Pear, we had another extremely large Bradford Pear and 6 more various Oak trees than needed quite a bit of pruning. Jim contacted us the next day and we arranged for a visit for a couple days later to give us a quote. Jim arrived as scheduled for the quote. He reviewed the process and the different types of pruning they do on the trees. He did not try to over sell the amount of pruning needed. We discussed each tree and he is very aware of trying to keep the overall natural shape of the trees. We scheduled a day for the pruning to occur and they showed up as scheduled. Jim was here working with his team of two other workers. They spent the entire day here and were absolutely excellent to work with. They had come out several days earlier (as arranged) to take the Bradford Pear tree down. They did the stump removal on the day of the general pruning. They use a chipper for all the removed branches. They clean up everything and the yard was cleaner after they left than when they arrived. The also did some minor pruning to a couple other trees around the yard that were not included in the original quote. The trees look great. We can only give the absolute highest rating for Jim and his services!
Description of Work: Remove one large Bradford Pear tree, including stump removal. Pruning for 6 other trees (including another very large Bradford Pear, a very large Silver Maple and 4 large various oak trees). Some minor pruning to 2 other trees was also done (no charge and not included in the original quote)

I enjoyed working with Jim and his crew. When they arrived on time, Jim reviewed his proposal and made sure that I agreed to everything he suggested. He offered to do less work if we needed to save money, but we decided to go ahead and have everything completed. Jim was a great listener and made sure that I was satisfied with the work his company completed. A few times during the process, I went outside to watch (it's interesting) and Jim made sure to ask me how everything looked and if I had any questions or comments. I only had to ask 1 question - they left a small dead limb on one tree and I asked if they could cut it down. Jim quickly handled it without question and told me it was no problem at all. We got everything we asked for and were very happy with the service provided by KS Green & Co. Jim's quote was the best of all that we were given, and he spent a lot of time explaining our options and answering questions. He has a very informative quote form that explains everything on the back - it was very helpful to refer to when discussing our options and helped us make our decision to hire Jim.
Description of Work: Jim and his crew crown cleaned all 5 trees in our front yard, and also pruned a few of the trees that needed pruning. They cleared one tree branch above our roof, as requested, to protect our new roof from being scratched in storms. In our backyard, they removed deadwood off of 8 large trees to make it safe for our children to play.

Jim and crew arrived as scheduled and completed the tasks we discussed. All debris was removed.... We were not at home at the time, but everything was completed exactly as promised. Jim will be back in a few weeks to "crown" some of our oak trees after they have had time to respond to the feeding suggested by him. His advice and counsel will not only improve the health of our trees, but will save us considerable money as well. We have had Jim's Company provide tree services in the past and they have always performed above and beyond our expectations. It is very obvious that he cares deeply about preserving the health of our trees, but the value they add to our landscape as well.

The company did a great job from start to finish. The only hitch came when they couldn't come out on the day originally scheduled due to some of the employees being sick. However, they called to let us know and promptly rescheduled and got the job done. They pruned the trees nicely, and did a good job of cleaning up. Other than a couple of very small branches that got missed, you'd never know someone had been working in our yard (unless you noticed the fresh cuts in the trees.)
Description of Work: Pruned several trees to get clearance above the street, lawn, and away from the roof. Also removed dead portions of neighbor's trees that were over our yard.

Everything went just fine, gave good tips and pointers. Based on conversation was accustomed to larger commercial type projects. His professionalism and credentials came with a price. The quote was out of line with what I expected to spend. I'm sure he would have done an excellent job, but I just couldn't afford to go with him.
Description of Work: Came out, gave quote for trimming trees on property, clearing ball moss from Live Oaks and quoting removal of Chinese Tallow in back yard.

We contact this company for an estimate on a huge oak tree and several smaller trees in your yard. The arborist was great and gave us a lot of valuable information about the care of our trees. We set a date for the service but had to postpone due to weather conditions. They came the following day as planned and did a great job. Very kind and professional and cleaned everything up before they left. I highly recommend this company.
Description of Work: They pruned a very large old oak tree in our front yard and another smaller tree. Plus 2 additional trees in our back yard. Plus removed a lot of dead branches and moss b**** from the large tree.

KS Green & Co. far exceeded my expectations in quality of work and price. They did exactly what we discussed in the quoting processes and left the area clean of debris. They were on time and worked efficiently. I limited the work request in order to check out their quality. I will have them back soon to do the rest of my trees and shrubs.
Description of Work: KS Green & Co. came prior to the job and gave a detailed quote and walked through my entire yard. They gave advice on care techniques for all of the different varrities of tree and shrubs in my yard. They were very proffessional and educated on the health and care of different tree species. I took their advice on "do-it-yourself" tips and this really added to the overall experience.

Jim Seng is very knowledgeable. Work was done as priced and on the agreed upon date. Very happy and would recommend. Trees look great and the removal of trees and dead wood opened up the yard to more light.
Description of Work: We looked at nearly all the trees in our yard and ended up removing about 10 cedar (moderate size) and some hackberries. He trimmed 2 large red oaks, 2 live oaks and an elm. They also trimmed all tree branches 5 feet from the roof, ect. and cleared away the debris.

I called K&S, told them I found them on Angie's list, and asked if they were interested in the work. Jim said yes and came over the next day to look at the tree and called me with a quote. We agreed on the work, price and timing and I told him to go ahead. To my pleasure they called a few days before to confirm the date and then the day before to reconfirm and to make sure no cars were parked under the tree (it hung over my neighbor's driveway). When I got home from work the tree and stumps were gone and the yard had been cleaned up and mulch raked over the holes left by the stumps. Awesome job!

When I used this company they were supposed to cut trees that were hanging on both my property and my neighbors and we split the price with no trouble. I looked at some other companies and this one had the most reasonable prices. The work done was quality and looks good. This company is very accommodating and even blew out some of my gutters after the branches were trimmed. I will definitely use this company again in the future.

Jim Seng & I mis-communicated about the amount of work we wanted done, & he took full responsibility and did the job for less money! I've never known a contractor to be so gracious! We wanted a crown cleaning & the canopy lifted on all 4 trees. He quoted us for just lifting the canopy, however we couldn't tell that was what his quote was for, because we didn't know ANYTHING about tree trimming! When we called to ask him why his price was 1/3 the other quotes, they do the job for less. But when he arrived at our house again to do the work, we realized immediately we had mis-communicated about the amount of work we wanted done. Jim was more than honorable about the situation, he lifted the canopy that day, & returned another 2 days to clean the crowns. We got the entire job done for about half of the other quotes, & were happy with the work they did. We should have paid another $250 for the entire job, but Jim felt bad about the miscommunication & did some of the work for free.
Description of Work: KS GREEN & CO lifted the canopy (clearance pruning) on 3 large pecan trees, and cleaned the crown on the same 3 trees and a 4th, sycamore tree in our yard. He has a form for his quotes that actually explain the types of trimming and cleaning of trees. It was very informative about the work he could do. The trick is, it is on the back of his quote sheet and we didn't see it (nor did he point it out!) until after we had a miscommunication about the amount of work we wanted done. In the end he completed the job well, and for much less than he should have charged us, to rectify the situation. He was polite and respectful and took care of the situation. So when you call him to get a quote, make sure you check out the tree trimming service standards on the back of the quote sheet, and you'll make sure you are getting the right kind of work done in the beginning of the deal! KS GREEN & CO were good to work with, & I will call them back when our trees need trimming again.
