Ovidio was a pleasure to work with and he and his team did an excellent job from start to finish. His estimates came in lower than competitors and he completed the job quickly and as promised. We had a tricky stump removal due to future hardscaping plans and Ovidio was extremely knowledgeable and thorough. He is definitely now our "tree guy" and I will call him for any future needs.
Description of Work: Removed two extremely large trees including complete stump removal/grinding.

Thank goodness, I feel like we hired a company that was honest! Ovidio, the owner, was so kind and really looked out for us. We had a few companies come out last November to give estimates. Economy Tree company gave us the impression that they were comfortable with the job and knew what they were doing. Plus, their estimate was $450 lower than the other company. I was a little nervous about hiring a company that was the lower bidder, but I looked over the countless reviews on Angie's List and decided to take the risk. We decided to do the work in the summer and Ovidio came back out to our house to talk about doing more extensive work as we were just nervous about the work. He was patient and took the time to make us feel better. We were nervous mostly because of the trees being so close to our homes and our neighbors homes. Ovidio reassured us that he never had an issue with damaging homes while removing trees. So, we scheduled two weeks later. We are so glad that we hired Economy Tree Service. Even though I am so busy, I wanted to make sure that I wrote this review before I forgot. We were so impressed with the work that they were doing, we chose to have them remove more trees at the last minute. Ovidio worked with us quickly to estimate the additional cost to remove additional trees and limbs. He could have taken advantage of us, but he didn't. He was concerned with making sure that we were paying a fair price. This is a good company. They deserve the good reviews that they get and the work that comes with it. :-)
Description of Work: One large tree, about 35 ft , and a second tree about 20 ft , which were positioned within 5 feet from our deck, and within 10 feet between two homes, were completely removed. Both trees were in a very tight space and were hovering over our roof. They also removed a medium-sized crab apple tree and a very large branch from a 50 ft tree , not sure how tall to be sure, which was hovering over our house and was a threat from falling onto our house.

Economy Tree Care did this work for my son (Richard Durand) in Falls Church, on my recommendation of them as a provider from Angie's List. They had good communications (email and telephone) and my son reported that they were very professional, well equipped and worked very hard to accomplish the work objective. The work was completed on two different days over a one and a half week period. The first job date took care of the removal of all the trees. That came back a week and a half later and ground all of the stumps down. My son said he would definitely use them again, and would recommend them to others for large tree work jobs (they have a bucket truck) to small jobs, including pruning and shaping.
Description of Work: The provider cut down and hauled off two medium to large size maple trees, two medium size pine trees, and grinded down these stumps plus three other small stump areas that remained on my property. All four trees that were taken down were in close proximity to the house. The provider also pruned and trimmed a medium size maple tree that is on the front of the property and that is adjacent to power lines.

Economy Tree Care came out on the first day, removed the tree and trimmed the bushes. Several weeks later, they came back out and removed the stump. All in all, they did a fantastic job and I would hire them again.

Economy came out when promised and was very efficient in performing all the tree trimming, removal and clean up. The cost was a bit higher than another bid, but two factors swayed us toward Economy. First, we've worked with them before and they've always been so responsive and timely, doing great work. Second, it was very clear that they understood exactly what we wanted done in terms of trimming the tree over our house. This wasn't necessarily the case with the other lower priced offer.
Description of Work: Economy removed a tree that fell onto our shed during the hurricane. They also trimmed back an oak that had much of its crown weight above our house.

Called for an estimate, asking that we be scheduled so that we could describe the work to be performed. Economy Tree Care never called back. Left voicemail. Didn't call back. Finally after 9 days I reached the rude person answering the phone who informed me that it would be 3-4 weeks before someone could get out and that I should go with another company. On that we agreed. I suggested a phone call informing us of that delay would have been helpful. She was not impressed with that logic. I stated I would rate them poorly on Angie's List and she stated "go ahead." Glad others found their service so good -- our experience was just the opposite and I would certainly not recommend them to anyone.
Description of Work: None were perfomed as we were unable to get an estimate.

This is a great company! They care about your safety, your trees, and do beautiful work. Also, Mr. Baten's response and help in an emergency was wonderful!
Description of Work: A violent storm brought down many trees and branches in my town. A large branch came down on my roof, supported at the other end by a fork in the tree's trunk. I went down Angie's List for tree service, calling one tree service after the other. Not only did Ovidio Baten answer the phone (it was a Saturday), he came out that same day to assess the damage. He came back the next morning (Sunday) to remove the branch and check/repair the damage to the tree. Mr. Baten was very responsive, trustworthy, and did a beautiful job on my tree. He clearly cares, and I can't say (write) enough good things about this company.

They arrived exactly as promised and were very efficient and professional. Some minor damage was done to our fence in bringing down a tree (our yard is heavily wooded) and they fixed it right away. Their estimate was considerably less than the other 2 companies and we couldn't be more pleased with the work they did.

I was contacted right away and an appointment was set up for an appraisal. The estimator was as concerned about our budget as we were since there was a lot of work to be done. He made a couple of suggestions as to how to keep the cost down and gave us a written estimate. (we had already recieved 2 estimates from other companies) After we accepted their offer, a crew came by 2 days later to start the work. They were swift and efficient, courteous and professional. It was a 2 day job and they cleaned and shredded all debri before they left the first day, so there was no overnight mess. I would highly recommend this company and will definitely use them again!
Description of Work: Removed 3 trees (about 80 ft tall) Grinded the stumps. Removed smaller tree. Thinned out and removed dead wood from approximately 6 very tall trees (80-100 ft) Trimmed back about 10 very large, heavy branches hanging over the house.

Ovidio came out for an estimate the day after we called, and only a few days after the derecho storm. He was a pleasure to deal with, and scheduled us for the following week since we had a large tree leaning on our fence and another tree in our yard. When other companies indicated it would take at least one to two weeks before they could even schedule us, Ovidio scheduled us right away. His crew was excellent and completed a very difficult project in one day. Overall, it was an outstanding experience, and I will be recommending them to anyone who needs tree services in the future.

We had an excellent experience with Economy Tree Care. We had a no pressure quote and the services were rendered in a timely manner. They completed the tree removal and trimming in one day, but did not get to the stump removal because their equipment needed repair. They did not ask for payment until the job was completed, so everything went well.
Description of Work: One silver maple was removed and the stump was ground up. Another silver maple had its major branches removed.

Providing outstanding customer service when the work goes as planned is commendable; providing outstanding service when mishaps arise and need to be addressed is superlative. Economy Tree Care is such a superlative company. Obtaining an estimate and scheduling the work went well. Angelica and Ovidio Baten were polite, professional and pleasant to work with throughout my interaction with their company. On December 2, 2011, the tree work took place. Ovidio and his crew worked hard to remove the limbs and cut them up. During the crew's cleanup, I noticed that there were a number of twigs still scattered over the yard, which was covered with leaves, so I started picking them up. The next thing I saw was one of the crew using a leaf blower to collect all the leaves and twigs in a corner of the backyard. When the crew finished cleaning up, I paid Ovidio for the job and thought everything was fine. After everyone left, I went over to my garden shed to see if there were any more twigs alongside or behind the building that needed to be cleaned up. It was at that time I noticed a number of the roof shingles along the edge closest to the osage orange had damage. I then recalled I had noticed one of the crew pulling repeatedly on a large cut limb to get it through the space between the shed and the fence. Apparently this action (or similar ones) caused the damage. I only observed the work sporadically. I contacted Angelica and she said she would let Ovidio know and schedule a time when he could come out and look at it. Once he looked at it, he agreed that his company would repair it. However, there was a complication ? the shingle color was discontinued and I didn?t have any extra shingles and neither did the out-of-town company who built the shed nor the store where that company purchased them. (It took several weeks and a number of phone calls to confirm this.) Ovidio ended up special-ordering a package of the shingles -- at no charge to me. When the shingles came in, the repair was scheduled and Ovidio's roof specialist completed the work. Not until the repair to the shed roof was made on February 23, 2012, and I was satisfied, did Ovidio deposit the check I gave him in December. My experience showed Economy Tree Care to be a top quality company and I would highly recommend them.
Description of Work: Removed six or so limbs overhanging our back fence from two large trees in neighbor’s backyard; one tree is an elm and the second an osage orange. The elm branches were dead; the osage orange produced quantities of large green fruit which littered our yard and could cause damage to a shed we had constructed last year.

Economy Tree Care, Inc has came to my home twice for services. They did most of the work the first visit. They recommended cutting the tree back in colder weather so that is why they came back for a second visit. They were prompt and reliable. They did the work when they said they would and I thought they did a good job. I received estimates from a few companies and they were the lowest so I decided to use them.

Ovidio is a total gentleman and a pleasure to work with. His office manager is a pleasure - very responsive and easy to schedule estimates and the actual work. She sends quotes and contracts via email, which I appreciate. She's also on the ball in coordinating with Miss Utility when necessary. Ovidio and his crew show up when they say they will and - on one occasion - even came early when a local job wrapped up faster than envisioned! They work safely and clean up when they're done. The only tree care company I'll ever use!
Description of Work: I've used Economy Tree Care three times in the past three years and have been happy every time. Have used them for removing small junk trees, trimming a large (3 story tall) evergreen, taking down medium size maples, and stump grinding (including one stump that was over 5' in diameter).

Economy Tree was great and vey responsive. I called for an estimate and they came out the next day. It took me about 3 weeks to finally sign the contract, but once signed they scheduled the work for 10 days later. Happily, they had an opening three days prior to our originally scheduled date and they were able to come out early. We didn't need to be home for the project, which meant we arrived home from work on Friday with the tree removed and our yard perfectly cleaned.
Description of Work: We had a large maple (30-40 feet tall) removed from our property. We elected not to have the stump removed, but I'm sure they would have done an excellent job had we decided to do so.

The overall experience was great. The company stayed in contact with me throughout the entire process. The estimate was timely and provided a menu of options that I could select based upon my budget. Once I signed the contract, the work was quickly performed and done exactly how I expected. I would definitely use Economy Tree Care for future projects.
Description of Work: - Cut down, remove and grind out the stump on two large holly trees in the front yard (taller than a two story house). - Cut down two smaller dead trees in the back yard and eliminate all of the tree limbs on various other trees to a reach a consistent hight. - Trim and prune all shrubs, bushes, and other landscape located in the front and sides of the home.

It went as expected for Economy Tree, Mission accomplished, well done !!
Description of Work: As always Ovideo and crew dropped by (3 man crew) that Fall afternoon and went to work trimming and raising my front yard cherry blossom tree insuring it was growing up and away from the house. He and one other worker climbed into the tree and cut the branches needed to make the tree grow straight up without sacrificing the great shade that tree provides to the lawn in the summer and the park bench area in front of the porch. They also trimmed the holly tree off the front left corner of the house to grow up and provide needed side shade for next summer along that part of the house. The third crewmember was busily at work in the back yard trimming back a large bush to ensure it did not interfere with my evergreen scanning trees (15 ft Height) providing some nice privacy screening to that side of the back yard. All was professionally done as I had specified to my satisfaction. They cleaned up the cut limbs and branches and quickly ran them through their shredder before they left. Crew did a great job with Ovideo providing excellent advice to me as the leader on which limbs he needed to cut and explaining it needed to be done to me,\; myself making that decision on the move as it should be that decision on the spot and the crew taking action. This is the way I like it done as opposed to cutting away, the looking at it and not liking what you see. Good affordable price for the hard working 1 plus hour the three spent trimming my trees and bushes. I plan on using he and his crew again in about 2 years when the need arises.

Economy Tree Service is a highly professional company with reasonable prices and a reliable crew. I would recommend them to anyone having major tree work done. rainier2dc@gmail.com
Description of Work: I selected Economy Tree Service (from 3 different companies) because they had the best prices and excellent ratings. My experience was also excellent. I had 6 trees removed (3 large, 3 small) and 4 trees trimmed. The largest tree was a 120 foot oak that hung over my house and was not accessible by a crane. The crew spent an entire day removing that single tree piece by piece. Nothing touched the house. After the second day everything was complete and the entire work area was clean and neat.

I scheduled an estimate and was contacted by the estimator once he had visited the property. He gave me a good analysis of the tree situation and offered to tell me the estimate over the phone or have it sent to me. I requested that it be sent because I was having a difficult time hearing him over the phone. I expected something in the mail but never received anything so I contacted their office. Eventually, they e-mailed me a PDF of the estimate. I approved and sent it back. I was told over the phone that they would let me know when they were available to trim my trees. Not long after I got a call that they were in my area wanted to swing by and do the job. I was home, fortunately, so I agreed. They were fine to work with and the work was good. Thanks. Also, they only take checks, which I would have known if I had paid better attention to their Angie's List page.

We were at work when the work was performed. However, when we did get home around 6pm, we noticed the tree was gone and a little wood shavings in the yard and a few spots of wood dust/debris in the driveway which was to be expected. It's a good thing we did pull all way in the driveway because after my husband swept up the remaining wood/debris, he found a 2/12 screw in the driveway. He wasn't very happy. My grade is really an -A because his vehicle has run flat tires. Cost a $100 to repair and much more to replace. Other than that, I would have given them an A.
Description of Work: They removed a very large oak tree, cut it up, and hauled away the wood and debris.
