Write a ReviewTrimmed tree after derecho. Were responsive and kept informed on when they would arrive. Elbert very knowledgeable and was on site when work being done. Would recommend to others.
Prompt, efficient, and fair price.
Had my stump out in less then 12 hrs after calling. Very prompt and efficient!
I was searching for a tree trimming company with a trained/certified arborist and hit the jackpot. Elbert Holt, who was the company rep in our city was very forthcoming in evaluating my 100 year old oak. It lost some limbs via the 120+ mph winds during the derecho we had in Cedar Rapids, IA on Aug 10, 2020. I wanted to see if it would be harmed by pruning (months before the normal winter pruning season). Elbert reassured me that it would okay to clean up the few broken limbs to provide clean cuts to increase the likelihood it will survive this stressful experience. Their team of climbers did a great job of cleaning up my tree. Their skill and work ethic was fantastic to witness. They also did a huge project at my sisters house to remove limbs from the roof of her house and cutting down 4 trees : one of which was a large diameter (~ 56 in ) silver maple that was growing in between 2 houses. I was skeptical about this company since they were not â localâ . I received great personal reviews from others in town who used their services.
After the Derocho hit and destroyed several of my trees, I was having a tough time getting ahold of anyone. Then Elbert Holt from "Family Tree Service" came to my door to offer your seevices. He was professional, gave an honest estimate and it was smooth sailing after that. The men who came to take my trees down were courteous, friendly, worked well as a team and quite frankly, worked their tails off. I was pleased with the results and would recommend your team anytime.
When others were gouging homeowners after the Derecho hit in Cedar Rapids, Iowa, in came Family Tree Service with their Southern, Texas hospitality, and gave a fair and honest bid on my 2 large trees. It did not end there because the guys got right to work and did an awesome job, saving and shaping what many quoted me as being unsalvageable! Plus the fact that many of the tree service outfits were so busy they were weeks and months out before they could even get to mine! The storm left me with a very dangerous mess and Family Tree Service came the very next morning after I accepted their bid! Do not let that scare you...they were plenty busy; however, they could see the danger these trees could pose! The cleanup was great too. Leaf blower...raking...just all-around great Texas hospitality! Sure wish they were in the construction business because I would hire them in a heartbeat to repair the rest of the damage that the Derecho left me with! Awesome! Awesome! Awesome! Hope Iowans are treating them well!
Exceptional job. Multiple neighbors hired them after they saw their work. Very professional and nice people.
Very professional and they did a very good job of cutting the trees down.
Elbert keep his word and did exactly what we agreed to. I also want to say how hard the crew worked to get the trees cleaned up and removed from our yard.
