Didn't even get to the tree trimming part. Had a horrible experience trying to get anything set up. Had called a week ago, scheduled for a Wednesday and told a time frame to expect someone to come. Wednesday comes, had to call to see if they were coming, even though I was told someone would reach out to me Monday. Was told that it wasn't Wednesday but Thursday. Thursday comes, the time that someone was supposed to show up, no call or heads up. Call back and then was gaslighted saying that the time I was told, they would never say that they would show up at that time. Ending up cancelling the guy to come. Horrible customer service.

Response from Expert Tree Service and Science
Thank you for taking the time to discuss your tree project with us. We would like to clarify the situation and ensure there is no misunderstanding about the scheduling of the estimate. When we spoke on Thursday, November 14th, we had a 20-minute conversation regarding your trees and we offered an estimate on Monday, November 18th. However, since you were unavailable on that date, we rescheduled the appointment for Thursday, November 21st in the morning, as per your request. Unfortunately, Wednesday, November 20th was not an option for us due to an already full schedule. On the morning of Wednesday, November 20th, we received your call at 8:15am, and we confirmed that the Arborist was scheduled to arrive between 8:30am and 9:30am on Thursday, November 21st. When you called again on Thursday at 8:29am, we clarified that the timeframe given was 8:30am to 9:30am, not 8:15am to 8:40am. Our Arborist would have arrived shortly after 8:30am, which would have still met your time frame. However, we understand that you chose to cancel the appointment at that point. We truly believe that if our Arborist had the opportunity to assess your project, you would have been impressed by their knowledge and the thoroughness of the estimate provided. We regret that we weren't able to complete the estimate and would be happy to reschedule at your convenience should you wish to move forward. Kind regards, Expert Tree

I had them come a take down all the trees growing around the foundation of my rental property. When I went over to check before I paid the bill there was a window broken very near where the tree was removed. I called and complained and they said it wasn't them! Most businesses when there is a broken window near where you are working you would take a photo of the window prior to beginning the work. I would not hire them again unless there was no one else who could do the job.

For estimate and actual work Expert Tree showed up on time per appointments. On day of service, they did a walk of the job again with me, performed excellent work, did great job of cleaning up all branches and leaves, and then did a walk of the work with me before they left. Would hire them again as my top choice for any future tree service work. The workers were all dressed professionally and had top quality equipment and trucks.

It went great. They showed up on time and trimmed as per the quote. They were very professional and did a great job cleaning up. They also beat two other quotes by several hundred dollars. Will be using them again.

It went well. The main purpose was achieved but the high parts of the tree were not touched. However, the description was followed exactly. I just didn’t pay attention to the proposal wording until later.

The team from Expert Tree Service did a great job. From the initial visit to inspect the trees and provide a quote to the actual trimming and clean up, everyone involved was highly professional. Because of the location of the trees, they could not use a boom truck so the trimmers, Bennie and Manny, had to climb the trees using ropes from the ground. They were always careful in their work and asked me when they had questions about trimming certain limbs. It was amazing to watch them work 60 feet above the ground. Clean up was excellent. I would definitely use them again.

Hello [Member Name Removed]- There was a message sent to you on the 10th of July at 2:09pm stating that someone would be able to stop out the week of July 27th to provide you with an estimate and that you would need to respond to the message. There was no response to the message that was sent confirming you wanted someone to stop out and provide you with an estimate. No appointment was ever set up. Our salesmen confirm their schedules 1-2 days in advance and we were still waiting to hear back from you. Thank you- Expert Tree

taking down some shrubs, tree pruning and removing multiple stumps
Description of Work: It went great. They did great work and very good cleanup in a timely manner. I had multiple tall shrubs that I wanted to be removed as well as a big pine that was dead and a smaller tree in the corner of the yard. Then there was a big piece of wood from a tree stump that was never finished as well as pruning two big trees and a smaller rotted stump that needed to be ground. They basically finished the work in a day including cleanup and haul away. Would definitely recommend them to anyone looking to get tree work done

The crew showed up at 8:00 and everything was done and the area cleaned up by 10:00. The work to be done was verified before anyone started and before they left made sure I was satisfied with the job. I will definitely use Expert Tree for any future tree trimming removal needs.
Description of Work: Removed 2 ash trees and a walnut tree, also trimmed the dead woos out of a silver maple and a smaller walnut tree. They also ground out all the stumps and chipped everything up and hauled it away.

The sales/estimate was great, the arborist was knowledgable and the estimate accurately included details of the job. The actual service was also great, the lead on the job met with me and reviewed the plan to ensure the pruning would be what was bit and expected. The crew was professional and cleanup was excellent. The price (with the Angies List discount) was on par with similar bids from companies with the same experience and arborists on staff. The only difficultly was with the scheduling post estimate. The estimate was given in January, but company could not commit to when the job would be scheduled (likely because of the their backlog). This is understandable, but we would have preferred to have been given a solid date at the end of their backlog; rather we were told we'll call a week before we can get you in. Given pruning oaks is a time sensitive service, this almost made us go with another company that could commit to a solid date.

This was the second tree we had removed by this company, this one right next to my neighbors garage. 50’ line came down without a single limb landing on her garage. It took longer, but they were very professional. Will definitely use them again.
