He sent someone out to evaluate the job, then never sent me an estimate. Over the next five days I asked him to please tell me the cost, but he never responded. I wanted to use his company because his service was recommended to me, but I couldn't hire him. read more

Hunter was very knowledgeable and communicative, especially when Hurricane Debby put a wrench in the initial plans. Great work for what I believe to be a reasonable price. He'll be our first call if any more trees around our house start to bite the bullet. read more

Hunter Tree Care has always exceeded my expectations. His team is knowledgeable, communicative, respectful of the property, and his prices are very fair. He always comes out promptly to evaluate whatever tree care services we may need. He recently took care of some stump grinding and our yard looks amazing now! Last year he took down a bunch of trees that varied in size and height. Thank you for the excellent service. Would highly recommend Hunter above all others in the area! read more

Terrific job once again! Quick estimate, terrific knowledge of the trees themselves and the best way to approach the job. The crew came by soon after, did a great job, and took care to avoid damaging anything under the limbs. Very professional. This is the only tree care team I would recommend to a friend! read more

Hunter is an absolute hero! We had a huge oak tree suddenly come down, bringing 5 other trees down also and posing a danger to our house. He was right there to help out. His prices were reasonable, and he and his crew are very good and very skilled. He really bent over backwards to do a good job and gave us great advice. Highly recommend! read more

Hunter Tree Care - Tree Services Near Me

Great service, which is also prompt with fair prices. I've used hunters company several times and I've always been pleased.

These guys are awesome. I'm a pretty new homeowner and had some branches that were starting to become a problem and a big tree leaning towards the house. They got rid of all of it, and really quickly (and the pricing was more than fair, was honest and consistent). Will 100% use again if/when I have any more tree issues in the future! read more

Two trees fell down across our driveway stranding my upstairs neighbor and me. Our landlord wasn't going to help until after the weekend so we couldn't get out of our driveway for 2 days! We called Hunter and they came within the hour, took care of the trees and charged a very reasonable price! Thank you for helping us. read more

If I could give him a negative 5 stars, I would! We hired Hunter in February to cut down some trees on our property. He gave us a fair estimate and started the job three days later. So far, so good. Then I made the unpardonable sin of paying before the job was completed. It was Friday afternoon and everybody likes to get paid before the weekend. I wanted to be a nice guy so even though there was still a big pile of logs sitting on my property, I paid him. Big mistake. that was the last time I saw him. That was over 2 months ago. I texted him and he said he'd pick them up, but he never showed up. So I had pay someone else $200 to haul them away. If you like being lied to. If you like people who don't finish the job. And if you like paying for a job twice, then this is your guy! read more

Punctual by 8am; Hired since quote was fair for all work they promised they would do; Seemingly personable, sincere owner at first quote meet Not satisfied: Out of 3 trees to be worked on, one of the trees they cut was the wrong one They damaged corner of our deck by tree trunk drop Cracked couple of walking pavers Cracked rain barrel Lack of respect of the property Gist: Supposed to shred the trimmed branches which they did for some of it, and the cut trees/trunks were supposed to be chipped so that they don't have to load, transport & dispose off, which we could use for landscaping. Instead they left some cut branches without shredding and all the cut tree trunks (some almost 10 to 12' long) left in place where it fell. Being senior citizens found it impossible to move some of them. During work when it became quiet around noon we assumed they had left for lunch. They never showed up again. Never the owner conducted a customary walk-through to inspect & ensure work was completed. In essence they left without a word though emailed us later for the payment. We emailed the owner with our dissatisfaction, as to the mistakes & unprofessional work. It has been almost a month but never received a response & absolutely no apologies for the damages, just silence. Takeaway: Don't just trust them blindly on what was promised at quote time. Our mistake was although we got a rough quote in writing, we didn't insist on writing down everything in detail to know exactly what they were going to do & how! Make sure you see if applicable a tree cutting permit/license & to see Insurance coverage in case of any accidents. Make sure to mark all trees to be worked on beforehand without believing everything said at the estimate time. If they do a shoddy or unprofessional job, post a just review but if a very serious breach you may also contact Better Business Bureau so others could be helped especially if they are senior citizens or ladies as a recourse. Don't just rely on all the positive reviews you read online. This as stated, has been our experience. read more

I had a significant amount of work to be done - I wanted to push back some of the woods that were creeping into my back yard, clear a large area with invasive shrubs, and remove a number of trees that were not healthy. Hunter communicated quickly and effectively to set up a consultation, came out to my property to see exactly what was needed, and came in under the budget I had set for the project. He coordinated all the work to be done and was completely done in a day. I'm incredibly pleased with how it opened up the areas that I needed, and can't wait to replace the trees that came out. read more

Overall good service. Prompt in coming out to give an estimate, and then scheduling a service. Had several trees taken cut down and some trimmed. Helpful in moving my hives, hauled off some branches and old wood we had laying around from previous work. A little pricier than others, but you get what you pay for, and this was worth a long over due job. read more

I had a fairly large job and was expecting to spend thousands to get it done. Hunter came out quickly to walk the job with me. I was blown away by the eyes for detail, wealth of knowledge, care for my concerns, and the price. I had to double-check to make sure the cost was matching the quantity of work. Turnaround to get the job done was less than a week which was amazing for me. The entire crew was polite, hard-working, clean, and detailed. I normally have services come out where I have to watch to make sure they don't miss things, but with Hunter it was done right the first time and I didn't have to bring up a single issue. Trees taken down, trimming, stump grinding, they did it all and left my yard clean afterwards. I would without a doubt recommend them for any job! read more

Hunter is great! Very responsive and communicative, and of course he really knows his stuff. Your trees are in good hands with his expert care. Highly recommend. read more

Had a bad storm come through and they were a godsend. Removed all the debris and other potential hazards. Would HIGHLY recommend.

We had a big Tulip Poplar fall in our yard. A neighbor knew of Hunter Tree Care and recommended them. I checked the reviews which are very good and gave Hunter, the owner, a call. He came on the same day and quoted a great price ( three other companies came too with estimates). I was instantly impressed with Hunter. I felt and still feel that he is honest and fair. He came at the designated time with Kevin (who was also very personable and hardworking) and they worked diligently until the tree was cleared. He never tried to oversell his services. In fact I asked Hunter to give me his advice on some other tree issues around my home which he did with great expertise. I would encourage anyone who needs tree services to give them a call. See what you think. I am extremely pleased and feel that you will be too. read more

Hunter came to our house and took down a very tall pine in a matter of minutes-great job and cut it up. We told our neighbor about him and he is to come back and take a very large tree down for a reasonable price not given by others-the same for us. Wonderful personality and very knowledgeable with trees. Hunter Tree Care 919-616-0807 HunterTreeCare@Yahoo.com read more

Very knowledgeable while working quickly and efficiently. Simple and clear communication - no beating around the "bush" pun intended. I appreciated the input from Hunter himself--the opinion of a tree expert when decided what to trim or remove (or not to) is invaluable! read more

Hunter Tree Care were fast, professional and affordable. I cannot recommend them highly enough! I thought that tree removal would be a far more painful experience (involving several days, trampled plants and an unholy mess). I was wrong on all counts! The guys of Hunter Tree Care were efficient and professional, and nice to boot! We will absolutely without a doubt 100% use them again in the future, as we still have many trees on our property that will need trimming and maintenance from time to time. read more

Hunter Tree care came out to inspect an older Maple that we suspected had a disease. Scheduling was easy and quick with all communication straightforward and professional. When the crew came out they explained everything they saw and how to approach the treatment. They also suggested a few other items that would help the overall health of our tree. We will be using them again and I'd highly recommend supporting this local small business! read more

We had a diseased tree that fell down on our property & the one next to it was also diseased so we needed to get it down ASAP before it fell down & damaged our property. Hunter came out quickly after I requested a quote on a Thursday & told us he could get the job done by that weekend. When I followed up asking when he was coming that weekend he said it would be later that week. I followed up again at the end of that week & we were promised Monday morning. Monday came & went with no communication & he stopped responding to communications. From another review I read this seems to be a trend for this company. Don't recommend wasting your time. read more

Quick turnaround and affordable! Hunter was able to provide a quote for our Bradford Pear trimming based on the pictures I sent, and then came out with a team to get the job done within just a day or two. They confirmed what we wanted out of our trimming, then used their expertise to quickly (and beautifully!) trim the tree. He asked us for our opinion on the job before wrapping up. All was finished, cleaned up, and hauled away within an hour. P.S. Text seems to be the quickest form of communication with him, which was a shift from other contractors I've worked with, but ended up working out well. read more

They did an amazing job taking down our large Cypress and grinding the stump. Worked very quickly and efficiently while taking care to make sure the tree fell without damaging anything around it. Top notch service and very reasonable. Highly recommended. read more

Hunter did a great job removing a rotten tree. He and the crew were professional and thorough.

Had two trees that needed to come down, one incredibly large that had been growing into the porch. I was provided an incredibly good price and quickly (the other two firms couldn't make it out for a couple of weeks) to not only take them down but also cut a good bit of it up for me to use in the fireplace - stacked it for me too! The rest was hauled away. And they've come back to drop some soil down and plant seed in a few places that got a bit torn up (hard to help it given all the rain we had). Hunter rocks! read more

Hunter came by the same day I requested a quote for tree removal and gave me a price $300-500 cheaper than three other companies. On the day of the job, the team showed up promptly and immediately started preparing for the job.

I will definitely contact them again if I need more work done. read more

We had two very large oaks that had died. One was directly beside the street with high power lines on the other side of it. Hunter agreed to take down and remove both trees with a very fair offer. He requested I have the power company drop their lines. The power company was unable to drop the lines due to the extremely high power carried, but they said they would cut down one of the two oaks since it leaned toward the lines. Hunter agreed to take the tree down without the power drop, and he would remove the tree and debris from the tree the power company would cut. In the process they determined another tall tree beside the road was also dying, and they agreed to remove it, also. Hunter's team was most impressive with their expertise and knowledge. They provided the required tall crane, flag men for the road and all other required equipment. We couldn't be more pleased with what they accomplished and the manner in which it was done. It was completed 8/20/20. read more

These guys are great! We had two trees that were touching the roof and Hunter came with an estimate and 2 days later came for the trees - great to work with. We highly recommend.

Hunter responded quickly when I had a large limb down across my driveway. He was timely, and professional. I would use him again!

We contacted several Triangle area tree companies about removing a large sweet gum tree that was significantly damaged recently by lightning. Hunter was great to work with from start to finish. He always replied promptly; gave us a very reasonable, competitive quote; worked with us to accommodate our schedule; arrived and finished on time; and was very patient in answering all our questions and describing all his work/findings. We would highly recommend Hunter and his crew! read more

The crew arrived 30 minutes before the appointed time of 8 AM to survey the situation for removing a GIANT oak tree that is next to the old farmhouse we just bought. Some of the limbs were dead and directly above the roof of the house. On initial inspection a few weeks ago, we had collectively decided that the tree had to come down because it was too big, and too close to the house. With extreme weather, ice storms, etc. it was a hazard. The crew of seasoned arborists stood around looking at this magnificent old tree (which my wife and I were very reluctant to cut down) and they offered an alternative. They suggested cutting away all of the dead limbs and all of the living ones that were a threat to the house and see how it looked--then we would decide. Well, they did just that, and the tree looked great, and it is still standing majestically in our yard. The guys thoroughly cleaned up after themselves and made us a pile of firewood and mulch. We could not be happier with them, their attitude, and their professionalism. read more

Hunter came by to give us an estimate for taking down one large tree and also for completing a significant trim of all the trees around our two story house and detached garage. Their estimate was very fair. Hunter came by the two days later to complete the work with his crew. They were professional, knowledgeable, and cleaned up all of the debris. He made sure we were pleased with the work before leaving. I am pleased to recommend Hunter and his team. read more

My husband decided he could cut down our dead tree. But when the tree started leaning toward the power lines we decided it was time to go pro. We got a quote from another place that was saying how risky it was. After sending out an email through yelp, Hunter called the next day and said he would take a look. He and his partner gave a quote that was over half the amount that the guy the night before had initially given us. They had the time and looked very confident in the process they would use to take down the tree. They were very courteous and the kids enjoyed watching them. He also said he would return with some cut wood from the tree for my son to make a bench out of...still waiting on that, though. ;) read more
