Description of Work: The trimming, pruning and crown work was done very well. The arborist himself was part of the crew, and worked quickly and professionally. I would certainly hire them again.

Response from The Heart of Wood
I came out and gave you an estimate. You never responded back to me. Just curious why would you give someone a C rating when you didn't even use their service? if there was anything that I didn't do let me know, but you never even met me so not sure how my estimate was .... forget it.

Description of Work: I utilized the services of the Heart of the Wood to remove a huge maple tree in my backyard that had sustained damage and had begun to rot at the base. Thomas, the owner, was very likeable, friendly and professional. He came out, looked at the tree and provided me with the cost estimate. On the day the work was to begin he did notify me to let me know they were running a tad bit late due to traffic; however, once he and the crew arrived the work began immediately. The tree was completely cut down after several hours and all debris cleaned up and removed. He even cut some of the smaller pieces of the tree up for me to use as firewood, which was a plus. | |The only thing I would say is it would have been nice for me to be given a bit more advance notice of his request to come out and perform the work but fortunately, everything worked out. Otherwise, I was very pleased with the work and would definitely use Thomas' services again.

Description of Work: They cut down several trees and removed the stumps. They were late one day and did a lot of extra work for free to make up for it that was not necessary, but VERY much appreciated!
