Description of Work: Tree service explained the problem. We are waiting for the city to look at the tree and give us a schedule when the city could trim the tree. If we want the tree service to do the work the city will have to issue the tree service a permit. Have not heard from the city.

Description of Work: They gave me meaningful information about my trees and the treatment they needed. They explained everything and they gave me options for their suggested treatments. I was very happy with my contacts with them and the work they did on my trees (injections for borers).

Description of Work: In May they ground down a remaining 10" tree stump. Timely and very well done. |In June they trimmed two cherry trees. They bid $800 and I accepted the bid without getting other bids so it my own fault about the price. The job took 2 1/2 hrs counting grinding up the branching. Retrospectively I think I paid too much. Maybe I am wrong? As you can see, the B overall occurred just because of the price that I perceive retrospectively as quite high for what was done.

Description of Work: This is the second time I've used Atlas. This time for stump grinding. They were on-time and ground down what was agreed to, including some other smaller stumps. I later found that a couple larger stumps were not ground down far enough. Atlas came out the next day and finished it up. Very good service!

Mike came out and went around my yard with me explaining about each tree and what was happening to each (health-wise). He offered suggestions for planting trees and even a website to find that ideal tree. He was very well informed about Utah trees, soil conditions in Draper, and correct watering procedures. The quote was high (due to many trees on the property that needed help because the previous owners did nothing!) and he was happy to work on what was needed immediately and prioritized the items. UPDATE 2012: Decided to go with another tree company after they did a poor job trimming the trees in front.
Description of Work: Pruned and sprayed 15 trees on our property.

The arborist/estimator was very helpful and informative during the initial visit. The work was scheduled and completed very promptly. While I was not present during the work, I was pleased with the end results. They were careful to clean up the site, leaving little sign that they had been there (except for the work results, of course!).

Atlas was very professional on the call but after engaging other arborists to bid, I concluded that the fungus was common in our neighborhood's shrub oak and not usually treated. These other company's could have told me to spray too and made money but they did not recommend it. Earlier in the year we had bids for pruning for under $800. We did it ourselves, so I was surprised by the dollar amount of this unrequested bid.
Description of Work: Johnny arrived promptly to provide us a bid related to the fungus our trees had, $750 to spray. He also offered an unrequested bid of $1200 for pruning.

The technician, Mike, seemed knowledgable and friendly. He arrived punctually, examined the trees and made an estimate. The only downside was that as he left, he promised the secretary would call and schedule an appt. for the work. This never happened, but several days later, Mike called to see it the work could be done that day. When I arrived home, the only indication that the work had been done was the trimmed trees. There was no mess whatsoever. My daughter was there when they arrived, and said they were very friendly and professional. I would definately call them again.
Description of Work: two trees were examined. A honey locust had routine deadwood trimmed out, and an ailing maple had deadwood removed and received and intensive feeding.

Mike came on time (much appreciated) as promised to give me an estimate. His was several hundred dollars less than other bids I'd gotten for less work. Always wary of lower bids, but went with Angie's recommendations.Mike arranged for work to be done the following week and let me know when to expect his crew. Work was completed by the time I returned home that afternoon. No mess.Couldn't even tell they'd been there expect for trees which looked trim and fit. One small tree had been missed. But I called Mike and the job was done the next day. Good show all the way around. Tree work always seems to be expensive, but Atlas did a lot of work for a comparatively reasonable bid that's why I rated the price as "A."
Description of Work: Trimmed and removed dead wood from 3 large trees, two smaller ones and removed one small tree completely. Some additional trimming of bushes.

Atlas sowed up within a few hours of my call and gave a good, complete estimate. The crew was there at the appointed hour, got to work, and had the whole tree down and cleaned up in what I considered to be record time. Great guys to work with and a very good job overall.

Prompt response in an emergency situation and followed through with getting the job done. I also ended up using them for tree spraying on 3 of my flowering plums. i rated them an A on everything but price which I gave them a B. The only reason I gave them a B is I did not shop around I think their price was fair and reasonable but have no comparisons. I had a globe willow taken out at my old home in West Jordan about 3 years ago and I ended up spending about 1,000 to take down the entire tree. With that said this globe willow at my new house is a much larger tree.
Description of Work: I had a large limb break off a globe willow in my back yard on Sunday. I called this provider and they came right out on Sunday and took down the dangerous hanging limbs. They came back on Monday and hauled the damaged limbs away and pruned the tree. They were professional and I think they did a nice job.

Overall, good quality work & good price but some aggravations along the way. Good quality work, but I NEVER HIRED THIS COMPANY TO DO THE WORK! About 2 weeks after receiving written bid, I left a message on a recorded line to call me about getting tree removed. Without calling me, Johnny cut down the tree. He forgot that I wanted the wood for firewood (which I told him when he gave me the bid) & gave it to my neighbors' contractor. Then had person who ground stump the next day bring the wood back to my yard. It is not cut to fit my fireplace, as he had agreed. Final statement included $14 landfill fee which was not on original bid. This company was the low bid, only 40% of Advantage Tree Service.
Description of Work: Cut down dead tree in my backyard, cut up for firewood, ground stump.
