They have drivers that will cut you off and speed up when you try to do around. They drive like nobody else's safety or lives matter. I emailed the company about it but have not heard anything about it. I have pictures of the truck # and driver. read more

If I could leave a zero star I would. They do not even deserve that. they are working for DTE. They are the most unprofessional tree service company I have seen in my entire life. I have lived at my address for 11 years and no other year did a company destroy my property as they have done. they allowed branches and debris fall all over my vehicle. I caught the guy cutting and violently tugging on a branch which was feet from the ground. The wires were 40-50 ft high. I told him to stop and he ignored me. I had to get in his face and call the police for him to stop. They were cutting trees which were not necessary and not in any easement. Stay away from this unprofessional, ignorant company. read more

Horrible service!!! No communication they where sent from DTE and trimmed trees that where not supposed to be trimmed. The trees that where trimmed where only supposed to be trimmed 10ft below the line. They trimmed them at least 15-20ft below the line because the dumb fucks don't know how to do there job!! read more

This company!! is doing tree trimming for DTE, and you would think they'd want to do quality work to promote their business -- but that's not the case. They told me they would shape my trees, not hack them, but they went ahead and cut them up anyway. The job foreman said he would meet with me to discuss what was going to be done, but he never showed up or followed through. I own a small engine/motorcycle repair shop and specifically asked to be present while they trimmed so I could move equipment out of the way to avoid damage. Instead, they came at a time when they knew I wouldn't be there, blocked my business driveway, and left a mess for me to clean up. When I did speak with the foreman, he didn't care about blocking access to my business or the risk to my equipment. On top of that, the company has terrible customer service -- I've called at least 8 times and never got a single call back. I did not request their service, and after this experience I would never hire them for tree work. Poor communication, poor service, and no respect for the customer. read more

This company is unsafe. They don't barricade the street properly (per MDOT). They let limbs fall as people are driving by. They damaged a friend of mine's car and when he got out, the three of them bullied him back into his car. When he called to complain, the DTE guy in charge of tree service got irate and was defending his forman friend Bob at Kappen who he's known for 30 years. Is that how it goes if your friends with somebody with DTE you get an edge on tree service contracts? What kind of transparency is going on there? Maybe Somebody should look into how Kappen got that contract because they sure didn't get it on their professionalism or public relations. read more

Kappen Tree Service - Car damaged when driving by where they were haphazardly trimming a tree. - Tree Services Near Me - Cass City, Michigan

Kappen Tree doing trimming for DTE. Gabe gave recommendations for 2 stately concolors in a focal point in my yard. He did a great job, better than I ever thought the outcome might be. Crew members Drew and Hannah were also very knowledgeable and told me info about other trees I had. They cleaned everything up so well, you wouldn't have known anything had changed. Thank you Kappen Tree for your professional, knowledgeable crew who were so pleasant to work with. read more

The guys did a great job! Carefully took down a hundred year old pine and avoided the neighbor's garage, an adjacent shed, all the high voltage lines as well as the cable and phone service. They extracted a very big cumbersome tree that was running through all sorts of lines and didn't miss a beat. Their clean up was terrific and they agreeably left behind some decent sized pieces for some backyard projects and burning in the fire pit. All the guys were polite and fun to hang out and talk with. No complaints!! Great job!! Great Crew!!! read more

Do not call this company. Detroit Edison uses them for tree trimming for their power lines. They came to my home to trim the two front trees in my front yard. 3 hours later they left to go down the street for more trimming. The problem is - they only cleaned up the small branches that they could grind. They left about 40 logs, probably 1000 pounds, and seven of 8 branches. I called my local police and my city offices to report the problem. I was told by the police to take a few photos so there would be a record if they left the area prior to them getting here. I took the photos and when they asked, "why the photos", I told them what the police suggested. That freaked them out and within a few hours they came by and picked up their mess. If I had not called the police, they would have done nothing and left the debris in my yard. DO NOT TRUST THESE PEOPLE! read more

I needed trees trimmed in the woods around my cottage, an area not accessible by a bucket truck. The Kappen crew carefully trimmed a large beech and removed three birch trees, all without damaging the surrounding trees. They did a good job cleaning up the area afterwards. I definitely would use them again. read more
