They gave me a great estimate, arrived on time, and did the work perfectly. They noticed extra work that needed to be done. I opted not to have that done - didn't have the extra cash at that moment. They were wonderful. They gave me advice about the health of the tree and how to keep it healthy.
Description of Work: They trimmed and pruned an Ash tree in my front yard.

I was very pleased with them from start to finish and would use them again.
Description of Work: Discovered in the afternoon that a large tree limb had cracked partially and was hanging over our neighbors property and was in danger of falling on their roof. Called Out on A Limb they came gave an estimate and said they would be back the next afternoon. I callked back later and said if possible could they come early as the limb had cracked more, they sent a crew very early the next morning. The guys were very quick, did a great job, cleaned up and left. Thanked me for giving them some cold drinks to take with them., Plan on having them back soon to trim other trees.

I was pleased with them and would use them again. I've used them for a number of years. I didn't use them for the last job because they couldn't get to me as soon as I wanted. I would not hesitate to use them again.

I called for an estimate and the guy arrived on time. He gave me a written estimate with enough detail so I could compare his prices/services to others. Once I chose him, he told me when they would arrive and about how long it would take. On the appropriate day, the crew arrived and began taking down the Ash tree. It took all day to bring it down. They started in earnest on the second day and began grinding stumps after lunch. At the conclusion, they cleaned up all the debris, and the only evidence remaining was the heap of wood chips and saw dust where the Ash once stood. The price was exactly as quoted. My only complaint was how the crew pruned a Mesquite tree. They removed more limbs than I thought necessary. All else went according to schedule.
Description of Work: Provider removed a large Ash tree, pruned a Mesquite, and ground two stumps. The whole job took two days. They removed all the limbs and debris and completed the project on time. I thought they went a little over board on pruning the Mesquite, but I should have been more specific about which limbs I wanted removed. The damage to the yard was very minimal and will disappear with time.

We found the on Angie's list. It was a positive experience. They made it clear in the contract what they were doing. There were problems that had to be fixed. They sent somebody to fix that. I would probably not use them in the future.
Description of Work: I used Out On A Limb for tree service last week in the beginning of the week. They did the large Oak trees and some small trees.

Overall, it was fantastic. The customer service was great from the time we got the estimate up until the crew finished up the job and left. This was the first time I had ever used a Tree Service and I'm glad to say that it exceeded my expectations and will not hesitate to use this company again.
Description of Work: We had a dead tree removed from our front yard and a major pruning to a large tree in the back yard. The crew was prompt and professional. What I liked the most (besides the fantastic job on the trees) was the fact that they cleaned up all debris.

The experience was fine. They climbed up on the roof. They were very professional, and they came on time. They did the services that they estimated. They came back over the summer to make sure they hadn't harmed the tree. Everything went fine. They were very thorough in checking to make sure they hadn't done damage.

We contacted Out on a Limb to look at a tree in our yard. They came out and determined that the tree could not be saved. They gave us an estimate and scheduled a date to have the tree removed. They were prompt and finished the job quickly. They cleaned up the area. I was extremely pleased with their work. They also provided the name of someone who could help pick out and plant a replacement tree.

They did work to my satisfaction. They didn't damage any other trees. They were very reliable. They completed their work in about a day and half. They did a really good job. I will definitely use them again in the future and recommend them as well. I didn't have to wait to get them scheduled out and it was pretty easy to get them scheduled. There was no rush.
Description of Work: I used Out On A Limb for tree service about 2 weeks ago. They trimmed the trees in front and backyard.

On the alloted day The Out On A Limb crew showed up on time and started work. Mr. Bixby came by a short time later and again went over with the job foreman exactly what was to be done. My experience with Out On A Limb was good froim the initial walk through, to the estimate, then the work, and finally the clean up. Randy and his folks are good to do business wit.
Description of Work: Called for estimate. Randy Bixby called before appointment time, said he was running a little early and asked if he could come early. He walked our yard with us and pointed out suggestions tree by tree. He gave an estimate which was not the lowest but that I considered fair. I was also impressed by their commitment to paint cuts, and clean their equipment between jobs. I live in a neighborhood with oak wilt and the two previous items are a concern to us.

They did a great job! The crew were very good and very polite. My only slight negative was I had to wait 5 weeks to get the job done but that may just be a testimate of how good they are and are always booked way ahead!

They came out when my daughter was attending speech class at the local elementary. So they came and went when I wasn't here, which I knew was a possibility based on the time frame. They did great! They cleaned up everything. They were neat and picked up all debris, so I couldn't tell that they had been here except that the trees had been trimmed. They'll mail an invoice. The owner was very professional and knew exactly what needed to be done.
Description of Work: We have several oak trees in our backyard that needed trimming, as the branches were very close to the roof. Our backyard is on a sloping hill, and we needed professional assistance. The name of the company caught my eye (very clever name!), so I contacted them. The owner came out the next day and provided an estimate. I then called back to book the actual service. When I called initially to request a quote, they were upfront and told me that they were booked and wouldn't be able to come out for 3-4 weeks. However, once the owner saw what needed to be done and that it wasn't a big job, he said that he could fit us into his schedule sooner. They came out the following week.

I've used this company numerous times over the past 5-7 years and have always been very happy with the work they have done. Randy Bixby visited the property the day after I called him and gave me an estimate that day. I had planned to have him complete the job but his schedule was full; the earliest date available was four weeks away. I chose to have another company complete the job, but would not hesitate to contact Out on a Limb in the future.
Description of Work: Asked for estimate to trim several mesquite and hackberry trees, and to remove 3 dead fruit trees.

Very impressedd with the service punctuality and above all the price.
Description of Work: Took 5 bids from various tree trimming companies. Prices ranged from $950 to $450 for Out on a Limb. Trimmed large live oak overhanging driveway, 2 crepe mytrles (did NOT top the crepes!!) and 2 live oaks on side of the house. The crew showed up early did excellent work and cleaned up thoroughly before they left. No money exchanged hands. We were billed for the services. We we so impressed we brought them back a month later to trim a live oak in the back yard and trimmed a hackberry that we had first thought to get rid of but Randy pointed out it was shaped nicely and all it needed was a trim. The trees look great.

As ususal, this year's crew did an excellent job of trimming our trees and bushes and cleaning up when finished. I would recommend this company to anyone since I have fround then to be quite dependable over the years.
Description of Work: Out on a Limb trimmed all our trees around our house-eight trees in all. In addition they trimmed a very large Photinia hedge and a number of Nandina schrubs around the house. They trimmed everything and cleaned up after the work was complete. We have used this firm every year for the past five or six years and they always do excellent work. The owner comes to the house and provides a very detailed estimate of the work to be performed and then schedules his crew for a week or two later. The crews have always been professional and very good at what they do.
