I contacted Hunter's to remove a tree and grind the stump from my backyard in July 2024. The lady I was emailing with was friendly, professional, and swift to respond. I got several bids for the work and Hunter's was very affordable. The crew showed up on time and got right to work. They removed a large tree and ground the stump in just a couple hours. Again, they were professional and did a great job. I will certainly contact them when I'm in need of an arborist. Thank you Hunter's, read more

The woman who quoted the job lead me to believe that whatever work I was requesting was well within their abilities to do. She lied. That did not happen in any way. I feel I was over charged for a crew that couldn't wait to go home. The clean up was sub-par as well. Very sketchy dishonest people. Avoid like the plague. *Did I mention I am a disabled person? What does that say about these people? read more

This was a wonderful experience. I needed a few trees managed to create a view. They came out and discussed options tree trimming, topping and removal. Provided clear health and longevity of trees with the options. We felt fantastic about our responsible tree engagement decisions. We now have a wonderful fabulous view. Thanks so much for making our million dollar view a reality, without having to pay a million. Prices were competitive and personal attention was fantastic. Thanks. read more

Called for free estimate for tree trimming and tree removal. I was told someone would come. Two weeks later, called again and was told they were really busy but we were on their list. They should be out shortly. No one ever came out or called. It has been weeks now and we had the Work done by someone else. Nice business model! Thanks for nothing. read more

These ratings are inaccurate and false. I don't understand why Hunters Tree Service has bad ratings on Yelp. If you look at Google they have great reviews. I am shocked! I have used this company for years. They are professional, honest and full of integrity, which is hard to find these days. They do beautiful work and are an ISA Certified professional tree care company. It's sad to me that the unhappy, negative people in this world have to leave such nasty reviews that aren't even the truth!!! read more

I have several very tall Cypress trees in my yard. I had a couple of other tree companies over and was advised to either have them heavily pruned or completely removed. The estimates for the recommended work ranged from $1750 to $2400. I decided to call Hunter Tree Service and they sent a Certified Arborist to check the health of my trees and give me a storm risk assessment. The lady educated me about my trees and assured me that they are healthy and needed nothing more than a light pruning. There is very little storm risk and the trees don't need to be cut down. I appreciate the honest and professional assessment and I recommend to give them a call before you cut down your trees. Hunter Tree Service saved me a lot of money. Thank you! read more

Fast, efficient and well priced. The crew that came out was pleasant and did an excellent job keeping things clean, and being careful. The owner is pleasant, honest, knowledgeable, and as accommodating as possible. Would hire them again in a heart beat. read more

I had Ms. Hunter come and give estimates for trees in our HOA. She spent almost 3 hours walking my neighborhood in pouring rain and she inspected trees throughout the development. Ms. Hunter, a certified arborist, educated me on the different types of trees and proper pruning. She is professional and conservative. I felt that she wasn't out to make a bunch of money, but rather to care for our oxygen producing trees. She even has a pamphlet that details proper trimming. I am so grateful for her time and willingness to share her knowledge. If I could give 6 stars I would! read more

called and requested a quote to remove a tree stump 10 inches in dia. 18 inches tall. Came out on the 2nd of may 2013 quoted me $175. before taxes. I said schedule it, she told me I'll go back to the office and do it. Didn't hear nothing so I called 8 May early morning, I was told I'm out of the office, ill call you when I get back in. Didn't hear nothing all day. I called againg 9 May early in the morning, I was told that they got a brand new stump grinder and it broke a belt and they had to send it back to the dealer to get it fixed. It would be fixed in a couple of days but she couldn't give me a date to get my stump ground down. I told her never mind I'll find someone else to do it. I feel that if they didn't want to do the job let me know at the the beginning so I don't waste anyones time. I want to say thanks for lying to me for a week. read more

Called this service for an estimate. Heard nothing back for over a week. Left a message requesting a callback, nothing. This business is unprofessional. read more

A neighbor recommended I contact Hunter Tree Service in Tacoma to get an estimate on pruning a tree. I contacted them about two weeks ago and was told they could have someone come out the next week. I was told I didn't need to be home and that an estimate would be provided. A week after I called a black pickup truck drove up with 2 ladies in the truck. One got out and went to the side of my house. I looked at them from my front window and assumed they were from Hunter Tree Service. I was just leaving the house and they drove away within 2 minutes of arriving. Never came to the door and never left anything. I figured I would get a call or an estimate in the mail. More than a week later I still had not received a call or estimate in the mail. The neighbor who referred me asked if I had gotten an estimate yet. This is what prompted me to call Hunter Tree Service today. I called and said I had not received a call or estimate yet. I let the lady know I saw a truck show up, but it drove away shortly after arriving. The lady asked for my address and kept looking for the paperwork. Once she found it she said she was the one that came out and all they could do was snip branches on my neighbor's side since the tree was improperly pruned and formed a canopy in our yard etc. I had to ask her to explain what she meant as she was using terms I didn't understand. She stated she is an arborist and it would be malpractice to prune the tree. I tried to find out if the tree can still be pruned, but she would only state she could not do it. The tree was here when we bought the house and we have never pruned it so we were wanting a professional to do the work. The tree needs to be cut back, but rather than state she cannot do it as an arborist, she offered no solution what so ever. I tried to find out if she was saying the tree cannot be cut at all or just by her company, but she would not offer any help. When I asked why I never received an estimate as I was told I would get one, she said she didn't leave an estimate since she wasn't interested in the job! I told her she could have let me know when she was at my house or followed up with a call. I told her that she didn't provide any customer service and her response was unprofessional. I also told her I couldn't believe she treated customers like this and I would be sure to let my neighbor who referred me know how she treated me. She then hung up on me. I called back and asked who the owner is and she said she is. I told her I was the customer she just hung up on and she said she didn't have to take my abuse and hung up again! I'm surprised to learn she is the owner and this is how she treats customers. I have already contacted my neighbor and shared how this local business owner handled herself. I will be sure to tell anyone needing these type of services to contact another business who appreciates their customers. I understand, only after I called, the job was not what she wanted to do, but there was a better way to handle the situation. This was my first time contacting a business like this and the owner displayed herself in an unprofessional way. It's pretty sad she thinks nothing of her customers and thinks she can disregard a customer who they committed to providing an estimate to. I will never use this business again and will share my experience with everyone. No customer deserves this type of service! read more

The 1 star is a gift. I called for a quote. They said they'd get back to me in 2 days. It took 2 weeks. I called back, took return call 2 weeks again with a quote. Then, they showed up and told me quote was bad and they would call me for further information. They never returned call. I would NEVER refer them to anyone. They simply didnt care for my business. Shame on me for letting them string me along for a month. read more

This company knows NOTHING about customer service or running a business ..... and they do not care. We got their name and number from a friend and on 10/31/2014 called to make arrangements for pruning of a tree in our back yard. Paula was our contact and per her she owns the company. Arrangements were made and they came out and left an estimate on our door. One month and two no show appointments later with out a phone call to let us know what happened, Paula told us last night we should contact another company because she did not have time for the job. Then why lead us on for a month and scheduled time to come out and do the job and then have excuse after excuse as to why it is not done yet???? This woman is crazy unorganized and rude on top of it. Do not use this service unless you have a bunch of time and energy to waste...... Horrible company and a nasty woman. read more

I'm only giving one star because I have to. Called for an estimate to have some stumps removed. A woman stopped by that day and took a look. I asked that the bid be sent by email. Later that week I called for an update, and was told it was on her desk and she'd get to it over the weekend. That was a week ago. I can't attest to their work, but I can certainly attest to the unprofessional way that they conduct business. It's all about communication, lady. I'll head to Craigslist and find somebody. read more

These people are not arborist they are butchers. They were hired by my neighbor to take a couple of limbs off my fir tree that extended into her yard. We hung around home for a week waiting for them to show up, but they never came. So we went away for two days and they came while we were gone and turned our fir tree into a telephone pole. We had a beautiful 50 foot fir tree and they cut off every limb for 25 feet. read more
